Weight Loss Question

Entries in this blog

Its been over a year for me and i am at my goal weight!!!!! i had my band placed in December 2011. The one thing i can say that I dont like is the amount of food I throw away!!!!! I try to put it in the fridge and save it, but I usually dont end up going back for it....and end up throwing it away...But it seems like the weight that i lost my husband found!   I love the fact that he starts to get a little jealous when i go to work, shopping, or anywhere because he can even see the differenc

For those who read my post a few months ago about the Medical office manager telling the whole office (Right in front of me) that everybody "Knows you had Gastric bypas surgery" ....No I did not!     To get caught up you may go to my profile and read about it there in my blog.....but anyway I never worked for this particular Doctor. I work for a very large well known lab, and i was just in her office to service her patients. Well after the above event took place, I asked to be moved to ano
Kind of funny and very short story.....   I eat my kids food!   They are only 1 and 2 years old and they are both boys.....and when I tell you they can EAT! OMG....Yes even at that age ....the two year old likes to feed himself, so he sits at the dining table and eats ...the 1 year old sits in his high chair and eats off of the little table thing or sometime I will put it in his little plastic spiderman bowl and he eats .     And what ever is left over I eat :ph34r: I guess that is goo

Its summer and I want to wear.....(stuff) I want to go to the pool with my hubby and kids, and I dont want others to see old "Thunder Thighs" comin. For those who have seen the movie "Norbit" I feel like her at the swim park!   My mom and a few people say they see a diffrence, but of course I cant .... What is wrong with
Ok here it is, no scrambled eggs, and no kind of potato! I had two episodes of being stuck after months of reading about being stuck, it finally happened to me. I went to Denny's with husband and ordered a veggie omelette after one bite and chewing and chewing with more chewing I swallowed and lord.....I though I was having a heart attack! I could not hardly take a breath and my chest right between my breast felt like something big was "stuck". The scary part was not really being able to b

But then i began to notice that my clothes were getting bigger ...BUT no change on the scale (weird) ...anyway at the start of surgery I was a tight 14/16 ...now Im a 12/14 comfortable.....When I went to the store to get a few new things to wear because everything was just too baggy, I was so excited to get into something cute.       I have a 1
Ok I had my surgery December 1, 2011....The only people that know are my mom and dad, the ex-co worker that had it done, and moved on ...so there is no real communication anymore, and 2 of my current co-workers who were sworn to secrecy. MY OWN HUSBAND DOES NOT KNOW.... Either way I was talking to a coworker about the light progresso soup that I had been eating, and she said oh I tried that I didnt like it because it was bland....and I said thats why its a light soup because it has low sodium
