  1. I third this I can only just Proactiv. Green Tea Moisturizer is awesome btw!! I've tryd so many products out there. And my face even gets worse! Had an acne problem since a teenager. Wish I could have grown outta it!! Sadly not the case! Grrhh I just recently "As in like 4 weeks ago" tryd "DMK" products body and face. It to broke me out like nastly! As for dry skin....YIKES It's not just my face but whole body! I read about dry brushing on here once a few weeks ago but sadly I cant find the thread again.
  2. I'm sorry lady!! Your doing a fantastic job !!! Did it feel anything like head hunger? I noticed myself last night at dinner "3 oz chicken Cordon Blue, 1 asparagus, 1 Tbsp mashed potatoes" I wasn't as full as I usually am. Worried me also We are only a few weeks apart in surgery dates I believe. Think its our body's adjusting to this whole process? Or it telling us we may need more calories? Either way I've noticed my hunger a little different these last two days. Sorry not much help but kinda felt I could relate.
  3. Alex closed the topic yesterday. After saying he was going to fix it so the pictures were more private.
  4. Not sure if my posts are posting I'm not seeing them. But Down 2 pounds 196
  5. Thought I posted my Thursday weight but I don't see it. CW 196, 2 pound loss Turkey Day GW 190.
  6. I'm so sorry!! God that huge! My total bill was 28K$ However my insurance was covering a big part. I was us under the impression I was going to pay 4000$ POSS 5. My shock came in a 12,000$ bill a month later. I do understand. I would call the financing department and find out why they did not adjust your amount. I was told at the surgeons office it cost 17,000$ I however didn't think about the hospitals charges. Yikes
  7. My post was not ment as an enabling comments. The enabling thread covers so much more.
  8. Try reading the Enabling thread. It gives one a better insite on the views of OUR vets and there comments. I read all 6 pages last night and loved it. Even cryd as somethings made me answer questions about myself. Might help?
  9. I just said something like this to a girlfriend yesterday. 80 pounds is awesome to lose but I soo do not love how my body is all lose and jiggly like, butt, thighs, belly boobs are not anything like I remember! lol Gah
  10. Hafta say if GG says it tastes like heaven id take her word on it. I did on the Vanilla Bean Torte! Just like melted Ice Cream. NO JOKE. Peanut Butter Cookie is next Just sayn
  11. I personal know the difference. I slipped up and have not since. I feel dam good about myself truth be told. I see how it seems like it is a huge deal. But my resolve from then has been rock hard. Hopefully my one indulgent on a pie piece has not offended anyone. It is not a behavior I condoned and plan on continuing. But It happened and I confessed. Mistakes happen to me I'm human. I will not be crying 6 months or 6 years down the road knowing I ate one slip up. If that is my down fall then It's my fault. I will own it. I want this to work with my whole being and having a oops does not define my habits. It may look like it on this post but I didn't get out of it what others have. I moved on. That said I get it. It is dangers behavior. But I understood the point of the starting of this thread....you do mess up your not alone. Not tryn to start anything...lordy I'm still new here and figuring things out!! I do see how some might get a support idea outta this .
  12. Great job!! You look fabulous!!!
  13. Very good to know. I did ask my NUT if my stomach could stretch and she said yes. Kinda scared me. Never got the reasons why....Thanks this is good info to keep in mind!
  14. cheese and rice Batman your awesome!!!! That's an amazing loss! Congrats
  15. Happy belated Birthday! I personally believe your birthday is a (bad) day I can live with It'll be my bad I'm sure each year
  16. Of course you can give your current weight and what weight (goal) you wanna be at by thanksgiving! Welcome!
  17. I actually had to sit back and think. lol I too had not thought about what I wanted or wanted to do after. Just thought about what I'll need to do to get there and maintain. But this is a fun thread to read. Family Pictures was such a good idea gonna add that to my list I can tell your driven for sure!!!
  18. I'm so with ya...I eat a tuna salad pouch with 6 Ritz crackers mmmm bout 4-5 times a week for lunch! I have to limit myself cause I love me some Ritz!! As is I eat one more than the 5 for the (per serving) Rebel Bahaha
  19. WOW Your doing amazing and look great!!
  20. 11 weeks is a long time!! Good for you sticking to your dr.s advice!! It will get you where you want to be!! I was cleared to eat regular healthy lean protein and food at 6 weeks! Dr's a always seeming to be different. Pizza and pastas will come in time
  21. I too did the mouthful and the small drinks. Told my NUT that after she asked if I was gulping water already. Is not really a gulp if I let it trickle HA
  22. The choice to become healthy is a empowering feeling combined with losing at a pace you can see with results (fast ones) that we can see right away. I'm not sure about everyone else but I always got discouraged if I didn't see results the next day! I was always so impatient for my weight to be gone. The pros soooo outweigh the cons any day here!! At 10 weeks out sipping is a thing of the past. so It get better lol Your doing fantastic!! Keep on chugging alone there's no where to go but down. (I mean that in the best since possible as in the scale)
