I can attest to all of that because I was going to do it. I lost more then 60% of my weight. It's all about choices and what we choose to do. It will not come off all by its self and you have to work at it. For those that didn't and have no appetite or want food then good for you but for the most part most of us worked hard. I never cheated one day while losing and that is why I reached my goal. Patience and honesty will get you where you need to be.

I wont buy candy until the day of. Sweets are my very best satanic addiction. If I have one I will have 101.

Ditto!

Jim I agree we all have those moments but no one has to post a rant about how we should not use our professions to give advise. Well I am proud of what I do and those who spend their entire day on lapband talk and have to be the first ones to post after everyone then there is something wrong with that and the same person that had to rant is guilty of the same thing.

A great topic Cheryl...so many on the forum seem to have forgotten the rules for the forum, and common courtesy in interpersonal communication.
I can agree to disagree with the best of us, and sometimes the need to be right for others makes the forum too devisive to be an effective tool for sharing best practices and information.
If members feel the need to rant, it is a better choice to type their frustrations out to externalize their feelings, and then delete their message before posting. You still have the therapeutic benefits without all of the resulting turbulence.
A nebulous caste system does not exist on an open forum...J/S

I engaged in a pissing match this week and not exactly proud of it. I have moved on and will refrain from feeding the trolls from here on out. I used the block option on here for the first time. Just not worth it to go back in forth.

I agree with the 2 of you. If you hate what someone wrote in a newspaper, do sit through the whole story, no you move on. TV shows, the same, turn off the horrible show. We are the USA, freedom of speech and freedom to move on to the next.

Ha ha ha you have the nicest words. I missed it but I will catch it on Hulu

I agree Terry and I think most of us have that problem. I eat every two hours only because my blood sugar drops. Maybe it would help if you did the six small meals every two hours instead of three meals. I know it makes a difference in how I feel. Hate that blood sugar dropping feeling.

Very well put. When I went to my surgeon's office the first time they gave me and every WLS person a huge book that has everything from the first visit to after the surgery. Why can't other doctors do this. Also listed was everyone's phone number in the office with their title.
Program your doctor's number in your phones,everyone.

That sounds refreshing...I will have to try that.
At present, my favorite is red grapefruit infused water...also refreshing on a hot summer day.

I mix mine with Oranges, lemons, limes, cucumbers and mint. I could drink it by the gallons on hot days!

Another great source of water is lemons and ginger or apples and cinnamon.

your house is really pretty
take care of yourself

Looks like the fridgerator also got skinny lol under and between the cupboards lol oh that's right not to much food to fill it up with since you have lost weight lol enjoy ur new home and get a lot of use out of that pool.
