3 pound weight loss
I Say You Still :Bunny Need To Eat More Signed Your Loving Roomie! There is no way you were getting in 1000 cal a day. I thought you ate like a bird pump up the calories & maybe the weight will start to drop again. It might be worth the try for a day or two.

Nicole- I am finally reading your sad post. Your angel is watching over you & your DH now & will forever be a pillar of strength for you. Its so sad to say that these things are common place now but they seem to be. The GREAT news is that normally when this occurs most are pregnant very soon after & all goes perfectly & a healthy little one enters our world. My thoughts & prayers are with you & hope you heal mentally & physically quickly. I just know you'll be feeling that wonderful feeling again soon:0) (((Hugs)))

But the 22 yr old, I called him young buck(whooohoo) said I was 34! Can you believe it! I was so flattered I wasn't leaving no way no how. Than earlier that night or was it morning??:0) I had a 34 year old take me to his room--NO I DID NOT GO INSIDE- He just wanted my number & to talk a bit- he lives 20 mins from me here in MICH & wants to go out. Why not - its great for the ego. I left him in about 5 mins- no kiss no nothing but a smile. It was so fun!!God I love vegas- I swear we have no cute guys in Michigan that I have ever noticed. HMMMM Could it have to do with the fact that I don't drink at home??????------LOL LOL LOL What a great time! IS IT SEPTEMBER 2006 YET???

I am thinking I made the wrong decision...
Hold on- it really does get better. I maily had boost drinks several times a day after surgery. I was told they had to be the high protein kind. I also had jello & strained soups. Why not try these. Just make sure the soups can go through a very tight strainer. It really does get better- please hold on - you made the right decision & all will be so much better in less than one more week. Great job on your loss so far;0)

going insane....
JUmp in the waters are fine:0) So you are going to have to BE VERY strong for a couple weeks out of your life for the liquid stage. So what?! You CAN DO THIS. Once your do DO THIS you will have a new found control that has not ever been with you before. That my friend is the pot of gold on the end of the rainbow! Just remeber there are highs & lows- I must be in one of the low periods b/c I just haven't been able to lose lately. But I know I will soon & the upside is I am not gaining either:0)
