So sorry to hear about all the complications you've suffered. I hope you have a speedy recovery and can get back on the path to successful weight loss:)

You look fab, what a difference. You have so much energy, I envy your being able to do all the athletics. I aspire to eventually follow you into that world. You go girl, thanks for the posting it gives us newbies a lot of encouragement:)

I'm so sorry to hear about your dads passing, my thoughts and prayers are with you. There is nothing worse than dealing with unorganized clueless people that should be professional and have it together. But with that said, this too shall pass and think of all the positive changes your making with your life:)

I totally agree with this, and want to add she'll most likely be the first person hating you when your slim and sexy! Put her on the "pay her no mind list".

Doing fantastic..looking great!

I am very sorry for your loss. As hard as it seems to worry about yourself at this time, that is exactly what you need to do.

I've been on a lot of cruises. There are a lot of food choices and the maitre d will also serve special food for dietary needs. Just let your travel agent or the cruise line know what you will need. Also every ship has a Buffett where there are many selections of healthy food also. My mom had to be on a bland diet once due to some issues she was having, and the gladly puréed her food.

Great job, I can see a big difference. Keep on losing:)

Missed this thread this morning, so how did your first day back go?

The grape and peach work for me, but cannot handle any of the lemonades.

Wow how accommodating. I haven't experienced eating out yet and hopefully not for awhile yet, but when I do I was wondering how to experience it. Great ideals.

And this too shall pass. Your on the right track to a whole new you....just keep on rejecting the temptations!

I totally agree:)

That is really neat I had no ideal. Was it hard to get in? Was it real expensive?

Thanks for the encouragement....you look fab! Almost like a different person! Great to know that there is more to hope for after the six months.

All my inches ions are finally scabed over, no pain to speak of. This morning I'm down 20lbs since surgery, but did come home 6lbs heavier. I'm on mashies, but still having problems getting enough fluids in and protein in. Haven't started the treadmill yet, told myself I would today. Just a little low still on energy:). Want to hear more updates from the June 18 th group:)

Great advice, can you tell me how many calories you eat per day?

Not too late to start new. Just keep thinking this is the start of a whole new you. You really have to keep occupied so your mind is off the food, it really helps:)

You made my day...way too funny! Lol

No need to bring it, your having surgery and won't really feel like styling. Plus you'll have to remove everything for surgery. Why worry leave the jewelry at home:)

I had surgery on July 18 with Doctor Garcia, and had a fantastic experience. The whole crew at both the MI Hospital and the Marriott. The nurses were so attentive catering to both myself and my husband. They Made sure my husbands insulin was keep cold, always asking if we needed anything. There is a house doctor there all the time. The room was good, just like our hospitals and a bed for my hubby, along with tv and remote control for air conditioning, which I loved. The Marriott is very familiar with the patients, you can eat your broth in the restaurant or they will deliver it to the room. Real nice pool area for companion, also golf. No worries amount being in Tijuana at all. The driver Samuel is great.

Great info, thank you!

If your getting all your proteins in, you also want to take your vitamins and maybe B-12. Hopefully that helps. The B-12 really helped me.

It'll be over before you know it, than you'll be on the loser bench with us. No worries.
