  1. That's awesome! And I have heard you can donate candy to places. I think that's great!!! Keep up the good work. Now I'm getting back on the treadmill!!!
  2. Alright, Halloween has come and gone. Throw that evil stuff out, or give it away to somewhere, anywhere. We don't need it. Be strong now. Focus on the Protein, the veggies, and fruit!!!
  3. Everything everyone which have replied here is correct. You simply posting on here is your new beginning! We're here for you, at least someone is nearly at any given time. You can do this, you know you can! One important thing, dont look at the big goal, look at the first 10lbs, then the next 10lbs, and so on, and so on. I think making smaller goals make you feel like you've accomplished little goals, then when you hit the big one - BOOM! You did it!!!
  4. I understand where you are coming from. But I must say, I USED to be like that, when I was heavier. Now, I kinda wanna see their reaction. Kinda like, see....I DID IT! kinda thing. You should be very proud of yourself!!! There is no need to be ashamed or nervous. After you get your first positive result, you kinda get addicted to them, and want more!
  5. Any type of Alcohol are empty calories. And beer is carbonated which is a huge no-no as mentioned above. Being banded is life changing.
  6. Sherlock - you hit the nail on the head. It shouldn't matter if what the reason, we should be nice to each other. When you obviously notice a change in a person, people should compliment them. Society just doesn't seem to do that anymore. Individuals have lost simple manners too. Like when someone sneezes, how many times do you not hear a simple "bless you"?? I am vowing to myself to compliment, use better manners more often. !!!!!!
  7. Yeah, I just don't get my inlaws. My mother in law, has never been supportive of me, in fact she has been cruel. And now all of sudden, she is being nice. Sorry little too late, and I can't trust her. It's sad actually, because she has missed out on seeing her grandkids. At least I know now how not to treat my kid's spouses!!
  8. Yes , I've noticed to that I don't get as winded. It feels good.
  9. I almost forgot. I had a bracelet I couldn't wear anymore, my mom got it from Germany. It fits now!!! Yay! That was an awesome feeling.
  10. That is a very special one indeed. Congrats!!
  11. Yup that's what my doc said. If I'm having a rough spot. He said, start from square one. Cycle back to the beginning. And you know what, I pretty much have been and it does work. Or I go simple all Protein. I want results. As time goes on it has gotten easier.
  12. Praying all is ok !!
  13. Yes I was scared. I almost didn't go through it. And I probably would be near goal now if I didn't chicken out. But I did it. No regrets here! . Good luck. It's worth it!!
  14. Congrats! And welcome to your new life!!!
  15. Congrats and welcome to your new life!!
