Next time she drives somewhere you should suggest she walk instead of taking the easy way and driving her car!

So im at the pool laying out in the sun on my stomach...and my ribs hurt! lmao...i used to have some more cushion there before...

Whoooo hoooo!! awesome!

My husband just pointed out last night that I "eat like a bird". I took it as a compliment actually! The thought of eating 3-4 pieces of pizza or a hamburger and fries in one sitting seems SO unreal to me now. I know there's no way I could do it. And that...feels great

I am one of the ones that cannot eat salad anymore. Well, sometimes I get lucky and get a few bites but usually it ends up with a bad sticking episode and lots of slime and PB. I know how you feel about - "I used to eat that and more" WoW, no wonder I was fat. I am amazed at how little I eat and I am still healthy and alive. Down 104 in 1 yr so this thing does work. Congrats on your weight loss and your journey - By the way, chicken Cesear Salad sure sounds good. maybe just the chicken and the dressing for me. hahaha

I too had an aw ha moment the other day. I am only eating 1/2 cup of food and I realized what I was eating before... It really got my attention. I too LOVE my band

So i dont know about you guys...but im three months out and just realized how little i actually eat...me and a friend just bought a chicken ceaser salad..dressing on side...from a deli that we used to eat at all the time...we bought one salad and split it (if thats what u call it...theres still ALOT left over)...anyways..to think we used to eat a whole salad each with two of those little cups of dressing! i love my band!

I haven't lost enough that I'm comfortable in front of a camera yet, but it is something I'm looking forward to. For years I've been telling people that come near me with a camera that I can't have pictures made because I'm in the witness protection program :ph34r: ! I also tell friends and family that if they post a picture of me on Facebook that I'll "unfriend" them!!
