      It was an interesting comment made, the person said I looked too skinny ! food for thought.

      Ice cream made from almond milk? has anyone seen or tried this?

  5. Went to pizza buffet today, I didn't worry too much about temptation as they are notorious known not to have the pizza ready (11-2) my lunch is 11-12. Well wouldn't you know today the pizza was ready, 15 hot steaming pizza tenderly sliced, ready for consumption. I got my salad, ate that first. I ended up getting two pieces, although I did walk through and smell them. Ate one, took the toppings off the second one.

      You know it's kind of funny but I absolutely hate pizza now. I laugh because prior to surgery, I absolutely loved it. Now, it tastes nasty, has a gross mouth feel, and lays like a rock in my stomach. I just won't eat it anymore. I also used to love wraps and I hate them now. Come to think of it, I really hate most foods that I liked before surgery.

  6. heartstop moment, working out , getting some sweat going and I look at it to check time, it hadn't moved! time to get a battery. I had worked out for 20 minutes

      Hello, I can only speak for myself. I had been on BP medicine for 3 years. Once I decided to have the sleeve, I lost 30 pounds pre-op and I found my BP was then too low. They took me off my medicine a month prior to my surgery. So far so good.

  9. I saw my self in the zumba mirror there I was wearing big clothes, and I was feeling big, next morning wear closer fitting closing I looked so different, Put away the fat zumba clothes!

      Nice , ya you kind of notice when there are big mirrors around , or when other people are telling you that the shirt is swallowing you so you don't really notice till it is pointed out or you have to keep lifting your shirt so it's not hanging or you have to keep pulling up your pants even with a belt on or other things keep up the good loss work.

  10. Nothing like making you feel dumber than a 5th grader.. took 2 hour test for different position at work.. lots has changed...

  12. I have to realize that although I have stopped the abuse on my body, there was still damage done, I have to allow my mind/body to heal from that still.

      It is so hard I don't know if my mind will ever catch up.

  13. NSV: ? On my way to work I see some of the guys I work with, I wave and they wave back. Yesterday I waved at two of them with no response. Later when I saw him, he said I didn't realize that was you!

  14. I've been feeling crappy lately, but now I'm hearing everyone else is too, (makes me feel beter is a weird way to know I'm not the only one)

      My first reaction is "something's wrong with lap band!" Its the sucky air lately, I'm near the fire in the mountains..

  15. what a reminder!, a co-worker was asking me if I didn't feel well and I told him about my meat issue, that I can't eat meat, and he said of course not, Lent started no meat for 40 days!

  16. Menopause hit, after I had pneumonia in October and took some heavy rounds of antibiotics, it took my resistance to ZERO. I was off of work, for 3 months. no working out and now just back to work. Going from 6 days a week working out to none, has been hard, every day I think is today the day I'm going to the gym and by midday I'm already dragging. Trying to take vitamins and eat healthy. As the dr. said this is temporary , since I never had issues before.  But hey I lost 25 lbs.:rolleyes:

  17. NSV: got a massage today, the tech said, did you loose more weight? Happily I said yes!

  18. Tried to eat salad all week, and no problems going down, but gassing ,and bad taste in mouth.. gonna have to a other stuff to diet, oh well I tried.

  19. Did a 30 minute work out last night, kicked my but and then dragged me home..

  20. ready to work out !

  21. YEAH, new AC unit here, had to relocate to differet office for now..

  22. Studies tell us you can break a habit in as little as twenty-one days. Be willing to discipline yourself so you can rise to a new level of personal freedom. Joel Osteen,

  23. Sometimes it seems easier to go around the pain than through it, but we are only taking the long way when we do that.

  24. Myd aughter and I were at a store,clerk said ho ho to me and my daughter and I said you don't know me!..

  25. Thought I had gained weight over the weekend, did more snacking than usual, my gym pants were alittle snug. Wasnt till I took them off that I realized they were my new medium pants not the XL I normally wear! snug is good!
