That is a new life! 95 lbs, congrats!

I hate to be pushed around by the numbers, but THAT number I don't mind at all! Welcome to the club!

So happy for you!

great complete story, and so glad everything went well for you! Welcome to the bench!

I remember when I joined this forum, your little star was in the middle of the rope! Its moving....s-l-o-w-l-y I know, but in the right direction... keep it up coop! Slow but steady wins the race!

Thats great! Its funny how we can have some S-L-O-W weeks or even stalls, then BAM! The body just lets go. Congrats!

Its really great you are looking into the sleeve for you, and working on supporting your kids in a healthier way of life. Good luck to you all.

Take good care of yourself, sip sip sip, try warm camomile or peppermint tea... and don't give it to me!!

I'm glad things are looking up for you! I just wanted to clear up the amounts of yogurt and milk... thats 1/4 cup of each right? Not 1.4 cups... Now that would be a high Protein (and giant) drink!

I am glad things are heading in the right direction at last. One day, you will say: "I love my sleeve!"

stir is up until the fizz dies down...

Congratulations and you are sooo close to Onderland! Best of luck getting there soon!

I ordered mine from netrition.com, but found that local markets like Safeway and Raleys both carried it in the regular pasta section. Its pretty much like regular pasta, but only a few usable carbs in a serving. .. I think 5 or 6 if I remember correctly. You can find a store search engine on their web site.

shoot! I keep posting twice!

On the 28th, right? 2pm? You will have to help me Celebrate reaching ONDERLAND today.....!!!!!

sorry, I doubled the post...don't know how to get rid of one of them!

Thanks Txn. I never get on the scale twice a day, but today I did and the second time I was in ONDERLAND!!! Check out that ticker! I just went out back where my husband is laying bricks and I asked him..."Do I look any different?" He got a worried look on his face like he would be in trouble if he didn't notice whatever it was...and said a tentative "Yes?" I said "I just weighed and it was 199.6! Less then I have weighed for the whole time I have known you! (18 years). He was happy, but he doesn't care what I weight really... but if mamma is happy then daddy is happy! Now I am going to give myself a giant dancing banana just because.....shoot! I cant get it to download! Imagine one in your mind then.... VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV

I was really missing veggies too, but had little room for them. The good news is, as the tummy relaxes and heals, you can eat a little bit more... I use this space to eat veggies. I started by making veggie soup, and eating it as a snack between meals to get in more veggies and liquid. That was really yummy! Now I make stir fries, and pasta dishes using veggies as the pasta or added to my Dreamfields pasta. It only takes a few bites to fill me up, but the veggies are wonderful! I also make myself salads using tender butter lettuce and apple, with blue cheese, walnuts and fake chicken(you could use real) I found a pear dressing that is lower calorie. I can eat quite a bit of the lettuce, not so much of the apple, but that is a very nice meal with plenty of variety and veggies.

When i have faced tough times and loss, I try and remind myself to make room for something better to happen than I could possible imagine.

OUCH! sounds like Mexico is a definite possibility...

Looking great! Love that neckless too...

Do they make gel seats for motorcycles like they do for bikes?

1 T sugar free metamusel (sp?) every day helps me.

I'm, thinking non surgical face job, maybe Thermage.... I'm using glycolic acid during the losing phase....I may want to get another tattoo...
