Tracy - OK ... I'll Be waiting for your weigh in:thumbup: I'll work on that tonight while I am being lazy, yes I am very lazy at night, and Gray's season premier is on tonight so I'll be planted right here!

OMG Mimi - that is insane! First you are definately not a failure! Second... My dr told me the real results of the Band are to lose 40-50% of your excess weight, so how the heck does that make you a failure! what does he want you to be too skinny? I don't know how tall you are but my ultimate goal is 150 for me, and at 185 with clothes on... my friends are telling me I am skinny minny or I am going to blow away and there is no way I need to lose 35 more lbs! I think very different, but still... and that was with an overfill.... YOU GO !!!! holy smokes ... your dr makes me angry!:mad::mad2::biggrin: mine was proud of me when I hit 208...

Hello all I'll work on a tracking sheet ... Come on Tracy and Suzanne... I know you are in.... Laura - I see you... how about you? anyone?????? I am alson on a mission and will add it to the chart as being totally optional... but I am going to be -10lbs and -10inches lost OK I'm wound tight now, but you should all see me by 7pm, I'm ready to fall over...LOL

Good Morning all glad to see everyone here today! I was going to post this morning but running late hi Laura - I use my fitness pal or daily plate is another good one, both online and both track all nutrition value, I have only been getting 700 cals so I'm trying to up that, but I love it because I can put my exercise in and it tracks everything, next week I print out my journal pages and take them to my nutritionist. I need to be accountable... anyone up for a challange to lose 10lbs by Halloween????? Weigh in here once a week? Friday mornings before the weekend so we can allow ourselves a bad day? Any takers? Well, finishing my breakfast and heading to the gym. xoxoxo be back

Hi Tracy - It took me 6 weeks before I could actually sleep! No job, they knew I wanted to be out in the field and not in the office Hi Suzanne - How was your shift at the hospital. I did laundry today too... Yuck! Nothing really fits me so time to send out some stuff so there are piles everywhere. I'm sorry you are sick, hope you feel better soon, glad you stopped in to let us know Welcome

Tracy - hey sister the happy pill side effects will go away, I promise, one of mine was insomnia, and now I can sleep and usually sleep pretty well. I'm home from my walk and having breakfast, going to clean, do laundry and shower. Not sure what else I'm going to do, lots on my mind - so a little flustered

Thanks gals Shalee - I have not looked at that pic in over a year, I am just about in a size 12 very easily, and I don't ever remember being a 12, or 14... ok 14 in 8th grade!! I had my good friend tell me tonight that I was wasting away and how much more do I want to lose, I told her 35lbs. she thought I was insane! are you kidding? that will put me at 150 and that is still not perfect, but they also don't see me with clothes off either, stupid stomach!!!! YUCK I do see a huge difference, and maybe I'll be totally happy. but that is why tomorrow I will be walking 4-5 miles and then going to water aerobics and what ever else I do (i really need to take up tiles) I just had 1/2 serving of ham 30 cals and 5gp and I'm going to bed, I'm hungry working out but dont need to eat OH, only had 1 drink and walked 3 blocks there and back ....lol have a good night everyone, I will be back at 5:30am! Suzanne, you should be so proud, but I do totally understand what you are saying, it took me lots of time to even admit I don't look like I did 2 years ago and that was a big thing. but be proud, you are doing great! HI JANE Tracy thanks sister! xoxoxoxox

Holy crap! I don't see myself like everyone else is... but I finally see a difference - yeah that is me in the red sweatshirt... YUCK

hey guess what I just found out My BMI says I am 6.5lbs away from being just over and not obese. isn't that something?

I told you I was tired...LOL Margi night... use to be here every Tues, now we are changing every other week here, or at my friends 2 blocks away does that make more sense? Like I need a Margi at this point.

Thanks but I'm crashing now... LOL and still have a ton to do, and going to margi night ... they started again. We are changing houses this time, but still 2 blocks away so that is easy. hope everyone is having a good day!

holy crap, I feel great today got a call, have to work this afternoon! yipee gotta run

Good morning everyone How are you all doing? I'm sorry I can't keep up on personals so well, I am very spacey lately. I am living on approximately 800 cals a day and it is not enough, I feel full, just get a little loopy and my driving.... YIKES! I'm frustrated because scale still didn't move... but I am not giving up, heading out to hit the road in a few, and today is Y day. then making a list and checking it twice..LOL ... not so much fun, getting ready for fall clean up and my house is a mess (for me) starting on 2nd fl and going to work my way down. Have a great day -lots to do. Eat well and get motivated... take a few extra steps every day, take the stairs, park on the far side of the parking lot, walk around instead of a short cut. this is what I tell myslf every day - so I thought I would share xoxoxoxo make it a good one everyone!

Hello everyone a crazy day... I live 2 mins away from HVCC where Obama was today... so everything I had to do was re-routed. ugh Shalee - I'm sorry about the insurance issues, I've been there done that with the loss of my job. I hope your new ins covers your fills ... did you get the book with the policy information? Hi everyone... I don't have much thought going on here so I lost what I was going to say. Tracy- good for you, I'm still stuck ... UGH frustration is an understatement.

I know Suzanne, and I think I've been working so hard at that I realize that I'm ok. But I don't think I'm strong enough to let myself get into a full relationship. Does that make sense? I find needy guys but I am a giver, I need my space too, I am not strong enought right now to keep giving to others all the time, a date or 2 are good, but i'm getting called pet names.... I don't think so... I am very to myself and don't like to feel like I'm being claimed, and that is how I feel. UGH so hard to explain and I am not looking forward to explaining this one later.:biggrin:

Hi gals Jane, I'm sorry, I have a bunch on my mind, I wanted to tell you I'm so glad to see you! I am working on getting things together and getting my ducks in a row to be self employed, I need to set up a good system for tracking my stuff. I am going to take my next safety class and work on updating my spanish ... this was suggestion from someone I met who is in construction. I can write it all off too OK i'm going to bed, I am going to journal while I'm laying in bed. Stupid guys.... they just mess with me, I don't think I'm ready to start another relationship, I need to focus on me. I need my happy pills adjusted

I think i'm going to increase my happy pills! Wth Dr's permission! I love that show too, I wish I had that kind of dedication. I could be working so much harder. I have so much to do tomorrow, but I so need to chat:crying:,

thanks sister it went ok i guess, have another tomorrow to get my results and hopefully surgery on Friday I think I am going to get my happy pills increased, I think right now I'm adjusting to them and I have so much going on they are not helping as much. I am totally financially tapped and just don't know how I'm going to survive and I could not take that job, but I don't have a clue if it was even officially offered to me, they just called me back and said they liked me but that was it... no offer... I emailed them and they called me back but I won't answer because they are the agency that tried to screw me already. I want everything from them in writing. IDK - since it was not officially offered to me, I'm going to put that I didn't refuse a job because I really wasn't offered one. I just don't want to get screwed, I need my money at the end of the month and can't afford to be behind.

Hi guys i'm around, not feeling great, can't wait to not have cysts anymore... I'm freaking out and getting scared of this relationship thing. moving so fast ... too fast, i can't handle it, and I don't know how to deal with it. anyway, that's it, i just have a lot on my mind... I am going to take more tiles up today, kind of been procrastinating, but I need my 2nd toilet back.

Good morning gals went out last night, I'm exhausted, I have a stomach bug, have been eating gas x like candy and no help. Tracy, I never got into Dr. Oz when he was on oprah or anything but watched it the other day.... I loved him... Bob from the biggest looser was on and it was great... very motivational. Dr Phil has not been on here in ages... holy smokes, my entire body hurts have fun, going to get ready for a bday party

Good for you, I am so tired of cleaning! I do it they come home from school and they make a mess, Im frustrated, because no one is doing their chores! come on, I am working on things too. sorry, had to vent! I am exhausted and even thinking about taking a little nap... holy smokes, I am never this tired. what are you all up to this weekend?

You guys are funny, Kat - I almost fell off my chair reading that... but here is a funny story, remember that guy I was seeing in January (the beginning of my trying to leave kev)? Well I saw him yesterday and I was on my way tanning, so I forgot I took off my bra after the gym, I'm only going tanning and would have to take it off.. right??? well I had to run across the street to avoid getting hit by a car... He asked me to do it again..LOL Tracy - hey sister, we can do this together, I'm here for you! Suzanne - seriously, I am so sorry, I have the same problem, I use Miralax once a week, and sometimes put it in my morning coffee... well don't plan on leaving the house if you do that... but it works. I go days and it feels horrible!!! ok off to the gym

Laura - thought I would let you know... you can taste the coconut, but the smell is much stronger than the taste. I have a super sniffer so maybe that is why I taste it because I smell it so strong... I don't know but my egg is pretty good... hope you all have a good day

You always have a place to stay in upstate NY, I'm 2 1/2 hrs from the city, and 45-60 mins from the adirondaks...

Laura - I know how picky you are, so I'm going to trust you on this ... LOL I have a super sniffer so I could smell it when I opened the container. Jane - I have a list of good things it does for you, I'm going to see if i can find it in my email and send it to you. I do not get fat in any other form lately and I think it is messing with me. Suzy - that is what I have been doing - I started walking every day but then relationship bs... I started to focus my anger and depression on exercise, some days I walked 10 miles a stretch just thinking. Now it is given, rain or sun, I'm out there.... good for you!
