Help

Somebody stick a needle in my side...quick. I need a fill, yesterday. Ok I have enjoyed all the junk I wanted hummm:rolleyes: , well I didn't get that steak and cheese yet. I still have time, I'll do that this weekend.:eek: Oh uh yeah, I uhhhh need that fill. yep   I have to say I am feeling pretty good. I got my eyebrows done yesterday and needed to go to a store just a few stores away and I walked. In the past, I would jump in the car with no hesitation. I am truly pleased with getting the band and becoming more active.   Tonight is weigh in and I am excited, pray for me. I would love to see that 5 pounds gone but I just don't know. I keep saying it but when I get my scale oh my goodness, I just may have to bring it to work with me. I am below 400 pounds.   459-393-388-375 Was- was 2 weeks ago-gonna be this week, if not lower -and goal for Auugust   I'm at 21 miles for the month of July and that feels great.

Hello tomorrow is the day

Well tomorrow is my birthday...how do I feel about that. Ok I guess. It would be another day if it wasn't a holiday. I will be a full 39.....how does that make you feel... I don't know....I'm kinda waiting for 40 so I can have a big party.   It's Monday, I'm at work and barely anyone else. I had a good weekend because I walked 6 miles. I have to get back to 3 miles a day. I will go to the rec center and get on the treadmill and see if it will work now. When I took a weight training class, I found out the the treadmills there had a weight capacity of 400 and so the thing would just cut off. Yes that is embarrassing. Now that I am thinking about it, I don't want to go find out. Okie dokie now, next.....   Tomorrow I will get up early and go walk, the earlier the better. Oh yeah my butt hurt LOL. I guess my butt isn't use to this walking. I told the story in the MD Exercise thread. I did get a new pair of shoes. I am not in love with them but they were on sale for $40 so it's ok. I will get some shoes I really like. One day I will design my own on Nike id....yeahhhh. For right now these will do and thank God for them. I don't want to sound ungrateful.....too late. LOL:nervous   I miss my mom:think   Thoughts throughout the day.   It's not everyday but this weekend and today all I can think about is food. I know my level of non restriciton and emotions are contributing to this.

Hello again

It is September.......I have been posting all over the place today. I think I am in a good mood. I'm not sure why but that is a good thing. I'm normally in a good mood but today I am loving what life has to offer. I hope you can do the same today. Dare I say......I feel blessed today. No mess today, keep to yourself, I like the peace.   Thursday, house music comes on tonight. I want to record a new tape, that music is awesome to exercise to. Woohoo and that is what I need.   388 yep still there or should I say back to it. I will be moving in the office today to burn some calories. My lowest was 385.....I don't have weigh in next week so it gives me time to lose ......dare I say......9 pounds to get to 379......look at that......I like that......379.......375........350 wow

Hello

Stress is a mutha....leave home without it.   I am at 371 thank God, after gaining 4 pounds two weeks in a row is a real downer. I knew I did not gain all that weight in that amount of time. So I have lost 10 pounds in 1 week....the body has a serious sense of humor and I was not laughing. Ok my goals seem more attainable now.   I still don't have much time to get on line.

Hello

Somebody is going to think I am crazy but I went to Bed Bath and Beyond for the first time yesterday. I wish I could have seen the look at my face when I walked in. I was shocked that it was a real store and I just kept looking up. I thought is was going to be like Ross or you know not a very organized store. Now that I think about it, I have been in the one in Waldorf. This one was just in a smaller space so everything went up. You should have seen me looking up at the stuff on all the shelves. LOL :biggrin1: Anyhow, I was looking for a candle and they were so expensive so a sales lady helped me. Showed me some holders and I found one for 99 cents :nervous ha ha . Also some voltives so I bought diffrent fragarances as a sampler. I go next do to a craft store to get a gift bag and they had big candles sitting at the door very inexpensive. LOL again. I decided to keep what I had because they were "yankee candles" ha ha a name brand. I'm silly but it was fun. I want to go back to BB and B. I am just rambling on. With all my running around for about an hour gas station, Trader Joes, BB and B, craft store, did I say I stopped in Payless LOL. That dag on Payless only went up to an 11, I guess I have to go to big feet land and find my shoes. Anyhow, I wish I had the funds to just shop like crazy. Oh wow, I wrote down everything I spent yesterday and that was so cool. Budgets man!!:sick

Hello

Had a pain in the right side of my chest yesterday from about 3:30-7:00. Then it just felt like pull twinge. It did scare me and was concerned I would have to go to the ER. I layed in bed for an hour or so. I can't find my blood pressure monitor I recently bought. Once the pain went away I started feeling like myself and going up and down the stairs, cleaning up and getting ready for today.   Last night I didn't think I would be able to go to work today but I felt fine when I got up and here I am. I do have an appointment for an echo today. I will call and make another appt with my primary doctor so I can get some blood work done. Ok Done appt for Monday.   I have lovely restriction this morning. I took my meds around 7 and spit for about 15 minutes. Now I have hot oatmeal and that is not going down. I will stop eating now. I have grape juice after the sliming stops and my band opens a little. Also, have trail mix.   Yesterday, I was a slow eating pig. 4 nuggets, 1/2 double cheeseburger 1 bun, insides of a meat burrito. Dinner was greens, bite of baked chicken, scalloped potatoes (which go down very well).

Hello

I'm here and it is weigh in day today. You have some days that you know you lost and days that you know you gained. Of course I hope I lost and I feel like I should have lost more then a pound this week but only the scale can tell me that. I am going to buy me a scale when I get to 350, hopefully I will get it before that. I am so excited to be able to get on my own scale at home anytime I want to especially to get on and see 350. Yessssss

Hello

There are things I want to say but this is public. It is a new day and I am blessed.   I thank god for another day He woke me up this morning I had a safe drive into work this morning I have a roof over my head I have lost weight I will be productive today!!!   I did not go to TTC because of the weather and flood warnings. TOPS may be cancelled tonight and I am trying to wrap my brain around that. That means I will have to go 2 weeks before weigh in.   I WILL look for a scale this weekend. I believe the weight watchers scales are sold at Hecht's. I will look into it. I really need a scale at home.   NEWS Flash WW scales do not go up to 400 pounds,,.....they suck. I am so glad I NEVER tried them. They don't cater to the super morbidly obese obviously.   Oh well, I found some anyhow.   :pound: :grouphug: :hug: :clap: :success1: :Banane20: :Banane20: THESE MAKE ME HAPPY

HBP

I'm here. I have not walked in weeks and feeling guilty. I have moved and some of the move itself and daily up and down the stairs has to account for some type of exercise. I feel like I have lost something.   I finally made an appt to back to the cardiologist because of some issues. I got an emergency appt for tomorrow. I will call my doctor today but I don't think I will go see her because what can she do but take my pressure maybe order a scan but that would not be done before tomorrow. Like I said I will call.   Here are the issues. The imfamous wheez I heard Monday night Twitching of my left eye Headach Have not be taking my HB meds daily I have been feeling off balance I have walked down the hall and felt slightly dizzy or light headed I feel like I can't walk as far anymore   Once I see the cardiologist I will get back to walking. I am sure I will be scheduled for my stress test.

Good Morning

Well today is one day away from having to weigh in after 2 whole weeks. It has been driving me ......to eat...not crazy. Yeah I will blame any weight gain on them.   I am exciting and scared to weigh in. I am glad I walked this weekend. 3 miles at Haines Point with Kee was not easy. Thank God for sending one of his angels, a fiesty, older lady who could out walk us decided not to walk with her 2 daughters but with us. She talked and she walked and talked and walked. Finally she decided to leave us near the end but if she had not been with us I would have said Kee I need to slow down and would have. This woman kept our speed up.   Also, everything was going on at the park. There was a triathalon going on, there is a swimming pool down there. There was a 10k training going on and it had to be about 200 people doing that. Then there were the usual walkers and joggers and all of this was going on at 7:30 am.   Sunday morning I knew I had to walk so I text Kee again and she said where. I thought PGCC would be good because the track was resurfaced but then I started thinking about the sun. So I said Watkins Park, which is what she said on Saturday. Then she said well let's walk around Fed Ex Field, you don't know how big that things is but I got to her house got out the car and we were stretching. I said are we going to be in the sun the whole time and she said pretty much. I said let's go to Watkins, I can't do it. After not walking for a few weeks, daily, I was not motivated to walk in the beeming sun, after walking yesterday and know how I was struggling....oh no. We went to Watkins and the trees were just a tall and blocked out ALL the sun. LOL There are 2 spots on the trail that does not have tree coverage and that sun was beaming. 3.4 miles done in comfort. That girl has more energey then a jumping bean.   sat sm salad, pickle egg salad steakum/cheese 1 bread slurpee med 4 crackers spoon of peanutbutter fried egg 1 cheese few doritos McD sundae,pie 580 cal     sun 2 fried eggs 2 cheese 1 1/2 sausage 8 M&M's hamburger/ 1 cheese Roast Beef soup hershey bar w/ almonds cereal sundae/pie 580 cal

Good Morning

I'm in a good mood. I'm kinda happy today, I'm not sure why but I feel pretty good. God is Good, sometimes you just have to give a day and you will feel all better the next day.   I cooked some great northern beans with smoked turkey in my new crockpot last night and they are the bomb. Yummmmyy   I am still on my grocery store shopping kick. I may not be able to eat a whole lot be I still keep going to the grocery store. I really need to stop that and it is getting on my nerves.:phanvan I bought some greens today so of course I am going to fix those when I get home, maybe in the crock pot. LOL I want to eat everything. I want to make a meatloaf with masedpotatoes, baked chicken and mashed potatoes, I want to go to this restaurant that has great chicken wings and cheesesteaks, I want that. I also want lobster, crabs and shrimp, what the..:girl_hug:   I see a commercial I want it, I watch way too much food network. I really love to cook but I don't have enough people to cook for or enough money to keep feeding them. LOL I am tripping today.
