I'm so excited for you!! Keep us posted on your progress!! And well,though I am not exactly new at this journey, I feel like I'm new (fell off the wagon for a very long time!!) Either way, we are here for one another and I can't wait to see the progress!!

Congrats on your surgery! Its great to hear that you're already up and around! Awesome!! I've been seriously thinking about something other than my lap band, so forgive me if I pop in from time to time to see your progress!! Keep up the good work!!

Wow.. Thank you sooo much for this.. I'm copying this and posting it on my bathroom mirror, my fridge and everywhere else I can to remind me of exactly what the scale is... " a numerical reflection of my relationship with gravity".. I love it..

You said it EXACTLY as I feel.. isn't it strange how now we seem to be trying to take that focus off ourselves? I just want to be me.. that's it.. I am STILL the same person that I've always been... except now? I am having difficulty figuring out if people are truly interested in ME or just what I look like.. as Lellow said - putting up walls, becoming cynical.. being more careful.. we've got to find a new normal.. darn it.. and I was 'used' to my normal.. this is all new - for all of us!

I love this list!! And you are on your way!! Way to go!!!

Great job!! I agree with Kime-lou - it definitely helps if you start those measuring habits now! Also just a quick side tip - make sure to find protein drinks that you LIKE.. nothing like spending crazy bucks on the liquids that don't make the taste test!! Keep up the good work!! (and thanks for reminding me that I soo need to get back on track with measuring my food again!!)

Love it!! Shar pei thighs?! OMG!! GREAT!!! You're too funny!! But isn't it GREAT being able to buy clothes that fit us - for LESS?! I was so excited the first time I was able to buy a pair of jeans for less than 15 bucks..(I LOVE clearance racks!!) Previously one pair of jeans used to cost me $50 bucks or more!! Now? My bank account loves that I can get more for my money!!

Keep up the good work!! Remember - you can do it!! and we are all here if you need us!!

Hey girlie.. good job!! I know its easier said than done.. but progress is progress... people keep telling me that.. and well its true.. but yes.. time to get back on track... looks like the both of us are doing that!! and you brought up a good point.. that I hadnt realized.. the cold weather affecting the band.. huh.. that explains a lot... who knew! Thanks for that tip.. I learned something new!! Keep up the good work and I look forward to hearing about your progress!!

Hey dylan - GREAT idea on the nail polish... I am sooo trying that! In meantime - browneyedbandit - keep up the good work - and its wierd after a while food doesn't dominate the senses so much.. your relationship wiht food will definitely change... but um the smell of popcorn.. yeah I cave everytime.. ha! So excited for you! Keep us posted on your progress!!

AWESOME good for you!! Isn't it a GREAT feeling? Since the surgery - I've had to clean out my closet 3 times.. and I'm with 2012 who tries on all the clothes in the closet and throwing the clothes on the floor when they don't fit... yep awesome, accomplished feeling when you see that pile growing.. clothes too big? FABULOUS!! Keep up the good work!! and have fun shopping!! Clearance racks are the best!!

Stay strong my friend!! The fact is we all have to be okay with other people eating in front of us. But I totally know what you mean... I feel the same way when my husband is eating whatever and whenever he wants, and here I am practically STARVING myself.. (ok, not exactly starving - but you know what I mean!) Just remember what you're doing this for, to be a better you.
