    Funny Story

    I joined a gym with my son a few weeks ago. I made an appointment with a trainer. The gym is a "judgement free zone". The trainer was going over our new workout plan and he added how people cheat and go the easy route by getting weight loss surgery. I sat and listen to him bash. My son was looking at me with a "here she comes" look. I politely ripped a new one on the instructor. I thought it was funny.

    Bye Bye Big Clothes

    I threw some of my big pants out today. Well all my pants. They are gone. I'm sooosooo excited. I didn't think this day would come. I'm so happy. I still have a long journey ahead. I was scared to throw them out.....I used to have to hide them in the back corner of closet for when I gained weight back.....no more. I feel good!! I was a very tight 18 and I bought 16. That's hard to admit to

    Question

    How many calories are you eating now? I love dinner so I drink a protein shake for breakfast and lunch. Work keeps me supppper busy and dinner is where I can eat with my family. If I get hungry and want a small snack I eat yogurt. It's about 1k per day depending on dinner

    Is This Normal

    I Wish I Hadnt Told A Soul...im Tired

    I told my co workers. They see me everyday. At first they thought I was going to magically be thin. They know how hard it is and that I didn't "cheat" by going this route. Life saver. But I can see where it can frustrating explaining over and over again. I don't talk about it anymore

    Im Not Loosing

    I work out 1 hr a day. Cardio and weights. I had a hysterctomy about 3 years ago. I don't take hormones. I was banded june 20th only lost 20 lbs. I'm eating about 1100 calories a day or less. I don't know what to do. I'm so upset. I'm not giving up. I need help or advice or something. I don't want to start taking diet pills or fat burners. Please help. I hope someone out there has a similar issue that can offer me some advice.

    Im Not Loosing

    I'm not any meds. I take supplements and vitamin. My thyroid is fine. I don't have ovaries = no hormones= Menapause. I eat good amount of protein and fiber and take fiber pills. I don't know what's wrong. I have lost some inches. I was thinking of maybe some fat burners but I was trying to stay away from them.
  17. I don't know either. My doc said don't drink anything for an hour after I eat. Its so confusing.

    Awesome. I wanted to go to anytime fitness but I could not get there in time to sign up. I ended up going to planet fitness. It turned out well....my son will be going with duo support!
  21. I can't eat tacos or burritos. I have to stay away from any bread......which is good....that's what got me in trouble

    My Stomach Talks To Me

    Throughout the day I hear a loud growl coming from my stomach. At first I didn't know who or what it was. Omg. Its so loud. Is this normal. It never happen before. I know I'm not hungry or at least I don't feel hungry. I will eat something small or drinks lots of water to make "it" calm down. Lol

    I Cheated

    I was off for 4 days. And I didn't eat big meals but I didn't eat right. I feel like a failure. I snacked a lot. I thought those days were gone. I'm ready to jump back on. I just don't know what happen. I have a dr appointment coming up but I'm going to reschedule. I don't want to be that patient that gained instead of loose. I paid so much money to fall off! I'm very disappointed. I had to tell somebody.
