Well I'm going to handle usual buffet like this: protein first lol. If I have room for anything else I may try some things I love...you know, like baby spoon of this or that? The one thing I INTEND to have is one of my moms pickled beets. She only brings them out at holidays.

BAKING! I loved baking! I sold my baking. At some point I had over 100 dozen in my freezer. I was going to get a pastry degree for goodness sake!!! I'm baking a few dz. Chocolate chip and it's like I'm being forced. I had a tiny bit of dough and chip on my finger, I looked at it and flung it the junk. Can't wait to make the meatballs though, lol. Amazing how much the stomach has changed the mind!

Love it! Merry Christmas!!!

Not an ounce of fat on the dog, lol.

You're right! I'm always cold from about September to June lol. It's just worse this year!!!

My kids took me out to lunch. Happily they didn't have to waste money on my meal. It was taco day. I ordered 1 hard shell with sour cream cheese, lettuce and tomato. I ended up only eating along the sour cream/meat line and removed all the shell above it. So less than half of a whole taco. No problems it tasted wonderful. I know the person waiting on me was thinking wth? I finally enjoyed being out at a restaurant, I felt comfortable. For once I didn't think about food. I enjoyed the conversations MORE than I paid attention to food. This is so major for me. I was the only one that cleaned their plate when out to eat. Now I'm the only one leaving food on my plate (taco), giving it away or boxing it up. I may eat a little. Dog has better chances with the leftovers, lol.

Do you have days you just look down and it feels like some stuck a pin in you? Or a slow leak in a tire? Something looks/feels so different all of a sudden. I almost feel...small..kind of fragile almost (trust me, I am neither). I notice I'm not comparing myself to a others quite as much. It was unusually warm yesterday and I'm always freezing. I'm outside in jeans and a tee. I didn't feel self conscious it was weird. I didn't go grab something to hide my sagging...I just enjoyed the air!

I wholeheartedly agree with all but one. You will not see me zip lining.

Awww Orange is beautiful.

I am so utterly grateful my bladder is empty.

MRI for brain? Spinal, c-spine? Contrast or no? No worries. Worked sp needs. Becoming sp needs. Lol. Take care. Pool, great idea...steps?

1. I have a housemate. 2. He is male. 3. We share a kitchen where I weigh myself. D. Never gonna happen. E V E R Z. (Laughing yet?) I'm too busy adding layers, hats, gloves, comforters, pets. He feels bad and tries to smoke me out of the chair by ripping off articles of clothing and pitching them when he turns up the furnace.

Seriously though. I have vomited almost immediately 5 times. 1 too many spoons full. It was the same coming up as going down. It was not the bug. I have no advice. Just color commentary.

I'm so sorry. I drove a school bus. LMAOOOO forgive me.

Yup yup. Normal.

Take a break. I have MS. I took 2 falls in one week. One coming in the door, one going outside over a step....out the same damn door. I haven't been able to get one my knees in years. Guess how I landed?! I've always had decent legs even at 300 plus pounds. They are wearing badges of honor. One across my tattoo that reads "never give up." I don't want you to give up either. I want for you to give in a little

Two schools of thought. #1. Question, Does it contain sugar? #2. question, have you seen the video demonstration of taking a tiny sip of water while eating or immediately following?

Honestly for me, I was 3 mths out. Had a slice. 3 bites was all I could handle. 2 months later I tried again...road trip...teenagers. It took me six hours to make it to the crust. I gave up. Pizza kicked my ass.

I get very nauseous. 8.5 mths post op.

I'm sorry. I worked with a lady who I'm positive had lapband but never asked, never confirmed. She had severe acid reflux and she had "stomach surgery."

Almost there! 213.7 with 2 pairs of pj pants, 1 sweatshirt and a tee, bare feet. 8 months 2 weeks, 98.3 lbs.

I've been at a stall for 2 weeks. I lost .5 lbs yesterday at 1 am. 216.0 Again I cannot sleep. Routine is to make coffee, weigh, let dog out. I get on the scale. It reads 218.8! (Wtf...Why the Face?) I look down and realize I'm wearing a hat, tee shirt sweatshirt hoodie, carrhart, 2 pairs of pj pants and slippers. All 2-4 sizes too big. Duh

And I want to sit in a restaurant booth!!!

Be able to have the strength in my legs to snap shut the leg thingy on my recliner. I no longer struggle to get out of my recliner but I just don't have the strength to shut it. What are some of your unusual goals/victories? I'd like to learn how to rollerblade. I'd like to fly without a seatbelt extender. I want to go to Cedar point and fit on all the rides. I want to race a go-cart.

I'm totally okay with it. It's frustrating but it doesn't deter me one bit. Just roll with the punches.
