  2. Hi Elle, how does the 5 day pouch test work? Hello! For me it restored my faith in my tool and it jumpstarted my weight loss again. Here is the website, check it out. It worked for me! 5daypouchtest.com Let me know how it goes if you decide to do it!
  3. I did FMLA too. I made sure all my paperwork was in and it was approved before I left. I too am a manager and I just took the maximum amount of time just in case I was off 6 weeks. I wish you the best... I hope this works out for you. Best Wishes
  4. Good morning Everyone! It's been too long, but this new site is not my favorite! Lol. I'm glad to see you guys are doing well and hang in in there. I too hit a scary stall that lasted a few months and the first thing I thought was "I messed something up" why did the weight loss stop. I was scared and really down I tried that 5 day pouch test and it worked I was surprised I lost 7 pounds. It took me back to the beginning and made me remember how I use to eat. I took my time eating stop drinking with my meals and I felt really great about that. I'm so close to my goal I have 27 more pounds to loose and I pray I can get there. I'm starting to get nervous about our one year anniversary, I'm so afraid of gaining the weight back. I was so strict on myself in the beginning and I have since eaten bread, but I cut it out again and I ate some chips, well a lot of chips around the holiday and I had to break free of that. So far so good.... Remember were in this thing together it's a constant battle for us all.
  5. That is a heck of a lot to go through! It's been two weeks REST! It's been two weeks Celebrate 12 ounds is awesome! Praying for you, but take your time recovering

  9. Hi Everyone, I can't believe it's been 7 months. I love losing weight! I too have slowed down, but I'm so happy about how far I've come! We still have 5 more months before our anniversary so I'm gonna make them count. Just like some of u I crave bad stuff too, it sucks. More than anything I'm afraid of gaining the weight back so I have long talks with myself. this will be a life long struggle for me, but my doc says if I give in one day a week the other six must be perfect. I'm scared to start that. Wishing u all the best!!!!
