Soooooooo frustrated....I've checked out the "whatcha eating ..." forums...checked out sample menus, etc...most post are over 2 years old..but I can say that I'm eating like ya'll. My staple foods/grocery list includes: eggbeaters, turkey bacon deli meat, 2% cheese slices, weight watchers cheese strings ground turkey, turkey patties, chicken patties, chicken fajita meat, chicken breasts triskets crackers, beef Jerky crystal light, Water Enhancer drops, low sodium V8 and of course Quest bars and Protien drink mixes (nectar and BA).. today so far...Protien shake for Breakfast (8oz) on my 4-5 glass of crystal light already eggbeaters scrambled eggs, 2 slices turkey bacon for lunch will probably get bored here in a bit, and snack on deli meat (roast beef), or string cheese, or jerky some sort of chicken for dinner and a quest bar for late dessert I'm up 6lbs today...was down 3 yesterday...I'ts been doing this since end of January...haven't lost any since the significant loss after surgery. I'm fairly picky eater, that's why you don't see veggies in the list, salads are boring, plus I get full with just eating protien. I'm doing Protein, protein, protein, water water water!! I go to Curves at least 3 x a week. I will go walk here in a sec, Curves is closed...Still not in shape to do major excersising...but I'm moving. I'm so frustrated and depressed, I want a margarita (which I've cold turkey achohol...maybe a glass of Moscato at night before bed, but I've had that same bottle of wine since January)... I've held in my bad, negative attitude about my non weight loss long enough...Because I don't like feeling this way. I'm a happy, no worries kind of person!! But this is a worry! Oh and the Dr. bill I just received!! But that's a whole nother post!! (I could buy a car for that bill, when insurance said I met "out of pocket expense"...liver biopsy as much as the surgery and not covered...What up??!!) So that stress, and no weight loss....not a good combination...

Wonderful!! So glad you got this going...mark me on the list!! I've probably been the worst loser ever... totally don't know what I'm doing wrong... Sent from my iPhone using VST

Wow!! Fabulous!! I guess I'm an "extra" slow loser...You are doing great, look wonderful! Sent from my iPhone using VST

Well I forced myself to get back in to Curves, and learn the circuit. I could only complete 1 round... Sent from my iPhone using VST

I chose Curves... Have joined, to get in on the membership special... Haven't worked out yet...gawd it is so difficult mentally to get myself in there. I don't know why?.. Scratch that, I do, it is sooo very depressing! They are fixin' to deduct monthly payments and my husband is going to "expect" me to go. There's a difference between expect and support.., me... this is so hard, my weight hasn't moved in ages...soooo down right now. But I did get out and join... step one is accomplished!

Ya know, that's a good point...I'm usually home all day and getting my fluids in, but today I got out and ran tons if errands for my 78 year old dad, then my 21 year old step daughter needed some things, etc...totally could be that. Sent from my iPhone using VST

fyi....I'm almost 7 weeks post op...if that matters...and if ya notice my ticker...I guess I'm a "slow loser"...dang it...

Sooooooooooooo....Although I'm asthmatic, have allergies and sinus issues frequently...I keep all that well under control with inhalers, and antihistamines. I have never ever (promise) been a headache person, honestly, and I know that seems unusual. But in the last week, I've probably noted 3-4 headaches, one being right now...all of them always being in the evening about this time. Can diet be a cause? and I'm so confused about NSAID's (?)...I don't have much to choose from in my med cabinet, cuz, well, I never need 'em....I have Aleve...and some left over liquid prescript. pain meds...which is what I used the last headache, so I could get to sleep...which I'm an earlier "go to bed person"...it's actually almost past my bed time...lol. Tylenol, right? over Aleve?

Thank you everyone for all the input!! I greatly appreciate it. I am a beginner, have never worked out before, that why I was thinking Curves...but thought the Y, because then maybe, just maybe, my husband would go and support me, if we had a family memebership to the Y. But...I like the "ladies only" Curves idea also...sooooooooo, that is why I posed the question. I will check out both, and because of my hubby, price will matter...sooo, I will definitely get back with ya'll. Thank you again!

Well I've convinced my husband that I need to join a gym or whatnot. I'm leaning toward Curves, all women, get in get out. Not sure exactly what they offer or cost. My 2nd choice is our Y. Any thoughts on either of theses! Would appreciate it much! Sent from my iPhone using VST

I drink just under a gallon of liquids a day and at least 2 8oz Protein drinks a day... fyi Sent from my iPhone using VST

I've read and understand and realize stalls exist, I've not complained once...but my ticker hasn't moved in weeks...I did have a 10 day set back of severe pain, no gain...but still...still.. Sent from my iPhone using VST

I think it would be great for us to just get together and chit chat! Sent from my iPhone using VST

Oh ya... forgot about those!! Thank you! Sent from my iPhone using VST

Wow... thank you for the info... Never heard of MIO... I only drink Crystal Light, but am sure Water would be better...but have never been a water drinker, need flavor. Thank you again! Sent from my iPhone using VST
