  1. Surgery July 30, 2012. 67 lbs down.
  2. Fiction... They are great stories about women and the path to losing weight... Many border on romance novels.
  3. I know wasn't it good :-). I am going to look into the Cinderella pact... Keep me posted on others you come across.
  4. I'm going to a costume party tonight. It is byob (which is good) however I need suggestions on what would be good to drink. I don't do well with carbonation so beer is out :-(
  5. I'm going to download this now. Thanks :-)
  6. Wow that is great news. I love Jimmy Johns!

    No never complained. He was always pretty affectionate, however lately it's just a bit much. I guess I shouldn't complain.
  11. You got this. Just keep in mind it is not uncommon to develope a headache for the first couple of days. Mine went away by day 3. Keep Tylenol on hand. Good luck to you :-)
  12. I too worry about loose skin. I've actually had nightmares :-(. I am going to try the dry brush technique and lotions mentioned. I will also continue seeing my personal trainer 3x a week.
  13. I got very dizzy and light headed. I believe the medical term is orthostatic hypotension.
  14. My personal trainer told me it is very important to eat something before you work out. She told me this after the first time I worked out with her and admitted I had not eaten anything yet.
  15. I bought baby spoons and forks on line, and it helps with portion size bites. I think it's a great idea.
  16. Personally I would say I was sick. I find it very difficult to make it look like I made a dent in a plate of food. I always feel bad after going out to eat as the waitress, always misinterprets my full plate of food as a sign I did not enjoy my meal. Not attending the dinner will eliminate any hard feelings, and awkwardness on our husbands part. Good luck with whatever you decide.

    Ughhh I'm only Down 45 pounds, but my husband can't seem to keep his hands to himself. I mean at first this was cute but now every time I turn a corner he is grabbing me. I'm glad he is finding me attractive, however I'm getting a bit tired of the groping. Anyone else having this issue with their significant other?
  18. Sleeved July 30. I lost a total of 45 pounds so far. I am noticing the weight is coming off slower than most of you. I will keep on plugging along with a positive attitude. Congratulations everyone keep up the great work.
  19. This sounds cool. I'm going to look into this one :-)
  20. I experienced a stall for about 2 weeks, and all of the sudden 5 lbs were gone. I usually weigh myself every other day ( a bit of an addiction I know), so it was weird to see the jump.
