  4. For 25yo going through this? Yeah you'll drop weight like a brick. After a couple more lbs, it'll slow down considerably, and then finally pick back up. Assuming you exercise a little, you should lose 1lb a day for the first 50 lbs avg.
  5. DAY 25 - 293.6 lbs I don't really eat much anymore. I'll have my morning shake, a banana for lunch then veggie juice the rest of the day. Yet I still work out 2 days on, 1 day off for an hour at the gym. I'm dropping weight and pant sizes like a brick. Dunno why but losing weight makes me lonely. I walked into the fat store to get some new clothes for a "date", since all my stuff hangs off me like a homeless man. So I get to my "date", and she tells me she just wanted to hang out and has no romantic interest in me at all. Kinda sucks. Maybe you should have mentioned that long ago before we went out. Turns out she sleeps on her apartment floor, is 30k in debt and has no job, and is emotionally unavailable. Oh, and wants to read tarot for a living. Maybe you should have mentioned ALL THAT TOO before we went out. Kinda sad that I'm so lonely I still kinda wanted to date her after these revelations. It's 1am, she gets out of the car and just kinda waves at me. I could feel my heart bleeding inside my chest. The first time I've interacted romantically with a girl in 2 years, and I get a forced smile and even a forced wave.
  6. I wasn't a fan of McDonalds before, but WOW that is 105% NASTY.

  9. I wonder if they are instructed to tell everybody that, to delay/cancel paying out the surgery money.

  16. Because the government always has our best interests in mind.
  17. I'll join. Carrollton area.
  18. I got another $300 medical bill in the mail at my old address. I just happened to talk to the new resident, who said "hey I got some mail for you from a long time ago". Really? It claims to be part of my procedure, however it's not from the hospital and the company seems to be a scam. They claim my insurance paid most of it, but my insurance hasn't heard of these people. Anyone else experience this? Here's why I think it's a scam: 1) The company's finance department is ONLY open on weekends 2) Their answering machine sounds like someone's kid did the recording 3) Even though it's from 2.5 years ago, it doesn't appear on my credit record, yet was due 7 months ago 4) They don't know my social security number, license number, anything about me other than my name and address 5) Why would they wait 2 years to bill me? 6) They DID NOT process anything through my insurance To clarity dates: - Surgery: 1/31/2011 - Bill due date: 2/17/2013 - Mail stamp date on the envelope: 1/7/2013 Opinions?

  20. Yep. I jam a ton of kale or spinach in mine. They are bright green. Here's one of hundreds of YouTube videos with a green smoothie recipe: Coconut Water tastes better than actual water. And I use a lot more ice.
  21. DAY 1 - 320 lbs DAY 10 - 311.7 lbs Haha, I'm glad people are making smoothies, drinking fresh green juices! You guys rock. Uh - average day. I may not post every day anymore, since nothing significant is going on. Maybe once a week. The weight continues to shed. Inches are dropping off.
  22. A ton of natural, fresh foods. No Atkins bars or Atkins shakes I see.
  23. Over the period of a day, yeah. Want a video of me drinking it?
  24. I'll checkout E3, thanks! I still take 7 different vitamins. After 30 days, I'm adding fish, and sticking with this for at least a year.
