  1. Don'k now if I can post this on here, but here goes. Is anyone interested in buying my black crushed leather suede coat? It's a 3xl and in exellent condition. I have had it for a year, and it doesn't fit anymore.

  2. Haven't been on in a while...but since my surgery on May 19th, I've lost 66 pounds :) Down to 249 now- II am exited, I haven't seen this number in forever lol ;)

  3. I know why I am at a stall, I hope it works out. Was talking to my nutritionist, and she fussed at me (along with my hubby fussing at me too) that I wasn't eating enough calories. I thought my 600 to 700 I was cramming in a day was great. But with the amount i exercise, she told me it was like starving myself, and making my metabilism suck. Yeah, I have only lost 2 pounds in 2 weeks and that is why. So I must find a way to shovel in more food to get up to 1000 a day. Yay me!!!...

  4. Kinda nervous, I am going to my first support group meeting tonight :)

  5. for those of you who track their food in a log, you can go to fatsecret.com and it puts up your food intake and they have almost every food imaginable, you can choose your portions, and it counts it all for you!!! Plus it counts your exercise log too and how many calories you burn with what exercise you choose!! It's great!!

  6. I have found veggie burgers :) I can't eat meat, but I am going to eat the closest thing to it lol. They're actually pretty good. 170 calories and 17 grams of protien :) :)

  7. I know in my brain i have been losing the weight, but i could never "see" where it was coming off from. Till I put on my jeans i was too big to fit into this morning, and the almost fell off!!

  8. I have officially lost 40 pounds :);) just ten more till my 3 month goal on august 19th!!

  9. Here is a poopy moment. Ok, so I have had multiple surgeries on my knees and shoulders (result of joint defects due to my particular eye disease) I went to my orthopedic surgeon last tuesday. Again she told me i needed to lose weight, i told her i got sleeved, she said good, mentioned a friend who had it go wrong (seems everyone has a friend that has it go wrong right?) and then fussed about my tattoos. Then after i told her i can't take meds with asprin, motrin, nsaids etc... she gave me...

  10. Finally got to go swimming yesterday, i was so happy I stayed in the pool 3 hours! I am burnt to a crisp and sooooo sore, but hey, it was a good workout though!! I think i may take my one day off tonight. Happy (hopeful) weigh in tomorrow.

  11. Big hiccup today,I need some advice. I am legally blind, and when my heart rate, bp gets too high my vision starts going like im passing out but it's just my vision. I was excercising today and it happened twice. Called my eye doc and he said not so much excercising- because one time it could happen and not come back. What do I do? I need to excercise to lose weight!!

  12. I can't eat anything but lunchmeat right now!! And veggies, everything else (chicken beef etc...) make me feel sick. Maybe later on I will try them.

  13. HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!

  14. Had my 4 week appointment today!! My weight loss slowed cuz im making muscles lol. I lost 10 pounds since my 2 week appointment. I was mad, but when they said it was normal the second 2 weeks to slow because of excercising, i was ok. I ate my first "regular meal" tonihgt, a turkey meatball and 5 green beans, it looked so lonely on the plate lmao, but i couldn't finish it i got full! I'm excited about my future. Now if i could do those jumping jacks without my um up...

  15. Ok, so i traded my treadmill for an eliptical, this is one monsterous piece of machinery :)!!! My doc said it would be better on my knees since I have had multiple surgeries on both of them. I hope he is right and I don't break my butt on this huge thing!

  16. I tried some pureed wendy's chili today no go. But I had some tuna with light mayo and it was great!! Now I can add one more thing to my list....LOL That makes 3

  17. Weighed myself yesterday, lost 5 more pounds ;) That's 31 total since 5/19. But I can't figure out for the life of me how to chenge this dumb ticker thing lmao

  18. Ok, so, I want to do more than walk on the treadmill. However comma I am legally blind and can't go to the gym. I have an xbox 360 and can stream movies to it. Does anyone have any suggestions on low inpact excercise vids I can ceck out? I have "The Biggest Loser" workout, but I am still too close out of my surgery to do the jumping and twisting around. Should I just stick to my treadmill and hand weights?

  19. my hubby made me an egg, I could only eat half of it, but hey, it's a start :)

  20. The beans didn't go too well. Looks like Iam doing the cottage cheese for a while lol, it's all good though, leas to a healthier me....I'm happy with what i can eat :)

  21. Day 3 of my pureed diet. Not going as well as I thought it would. The meats aren't sitting well. But now I am really into this cottage cheese. And I used to hate it!!! The only thing that i question is that i am lactose intolerant. But the cottage cheese doesn't seem to effect me too badly. I'm trying the refried beans tonight. Yay!!

  22. I just got home from my 2 week appointment!! Since I have lost teh 23 pounds, I haven't lost any more, but the doc says that is normal, that it will some off. I've been graduated tot he pureed stage of the diet. The doc seemed really excited, so I am too!!! Plus they took off those horrible steri-strips (allergy to tape) and now no more skin rash (i hope lol)

  23. Heya all :) lookin for some people to get in contact with, had my surgery on the 19th and even though it's online, i'd like a support group, mine is kinda slim lol

  24. Going to try and burn up the treadmill :)
