  1. It's funny how Lesbin can post these "I have no sympathy post" back in June she was pretty much in tears craving chips, soda, and carbs. Lesbin go back and read your own threads and remember where you came from.
  2. Honestly, you give yourself a bad name with your ugly attitude. Stay off my thread.
  3. Honestly, I feel sorry for people that are emotionless....wishing you the best in your journey. And that's real talk, no sugar coating... LOL...
  4. Thanks Jane C and hpineda, I truly appreciate your words of encouragement. As for the other young lady, please don't get it twisted. Im doing extremely well with my weight lost. I would appreciate it if you would not continue to comment on my thread. I utilize this site to work on behaviors I struggle with, BUT I feel get and look even better.
  5. Congrats and Good Luck!!!
  6. Well I had my surgery 8/12 sw: 277 cw: 227 gw: 175 Through my journey I decided not to weigh myself. My doctor did not put me on a modified diet, he just said eat everything in moderation. At first I was like yepee, now I kinda regret not having restrictions because I found myself slipping back into old behaviors. Today, I decided I must take control and set limits. Although I've lost a significant amount of weight I still have those bad behaviors. New Beginnings for me as of today...
  7. worm2872 thanks, I do put a lot of effort into to my new life style, but its tougher for some than others. Ultimately, I do have to make better decisions. Thank for putting it into a better perspective. I will link with you on MFP. Shorty, it can be frustrating but keep signing on here everyday and read others testimonies and give it your best. Good Luck!
  8. Actually, I have MFP and a therapist. I thank you for the reminders. I utilize my therapist for other reasons, but I guess she can also help me process this as well. Are you on MFP??? I am swilkins12 on there, let's be friends...
  9. I had my surgery 8/12, I'm down 52lbs. I have done great so far with my weight loss however, I am beginning to pick up old habits. I drink soda everyday, started eating Cookies, and my solution after a stressful day of work is to have a cocktail. I'm pretty much a loner, so its easy to come home and find comfort in these things.

  11. I had surgery on 8/10 and my first cycle after surgery was excruciating, I've never had cramps so bad. I hope this is not what I will have to look foward to each month.
  12. I have surgery on 8/10 on 8/17 I lost 17lbs. I went to the doctor this past Friday and only lost 2lbs. Happy but was expecting a lil more. I think I was eating 400 cal per day. My doctor said I need to get in more calories and I will see better results. He also said I can go to regular foods just 4 small portions per day. I would like to know what your eating??? Also I would like some leg and arm exercises any suggestions? Sharon
  13. Panda, I brought the pure protein bars yesterday. 20g of protein in one bar and they taste pretty good. I also like the can shakes they are 35g of protein per serving.
  14. I got my cycle today, I never experienced cramping like this very excruciating pain, I never had to spend the day in bed. I have a electric warmer, ibuprofin, warm tea, and still in pain. 45 years old, this is torcher.
  15. Just what I needed to hear, the accident was very tramatic and I do find comfort in food. But as stated back to basics. Muah!!!!
  16. Please note its only small portions pasta ex: Lo mein noodles chopped up, no more than 2 spoons of rice and broken up.chicken, I guess I don't need to minimize I need help. Thanks!
  17. I had Bypass on 8/10, things were going well, into my second week I was involved in a serious car accident. I have not been following my schedule due to injuries. I have eaten Pasta, rice, fried chicken. Any suggestions!!! Should I start over with a liquid diet???? Help!!!
  18. I revisit my surgeon on 8/17 to have this JP Bag removed. Kinda gross but I have no choice but to clean it daily. My doctor said I can move onto mushies this weekend. Soft scramble eggs, puree salmon, baked sweet potatoes. Brocoli, cauliflower, cottage chez....
  19. Thanks Carrie, what a you doing to stay active? Tomorrow I will go to the gym and walk on the treadmill for 5/10 mins.
  20. I currently take Prozac and Zanax I had my surgery on 8/10 and I continue to take them, especially since my body has undergone a serve surgery. I think it will take time and therapy to discontinue my medications.
