    When I get a choc attack I just eat a small piece. It has never hurt my progress.

    Are you happy? Happiness!

    Hold on to that happiness because this is one turbulent ride! Some days im happy, some I am mad, some furious, some sad, and some in deep despair. Your body and mind will play such tricks on you. Hold on to that good feeling.

    1st sign of good weight loss

    Im with the last poster. The most weight I ever dropped in a single week was 4 lbs. I have never seen the scale just shock my socks off. Slow and steady. It was at 7 months out that people whom I had never told began to think I was someone different.

  15. What size are you now and what is your dream size.and your realistic goal size?
  16. And when that guy says those people lose more than the acerage gb patient, I wonder what the basis of his research is, because we are all different and he does not know us all. I have lost way above" average" and havent done any silly weight loss tricks. Those days are done for me. I just work this tool and it works for me in exchange. You have to have a plan and forget about shortcuts. Those are the old days and this is not a race.
  17. Why would you want to take that crap? Surgery is all you need to get things jump started. Just be patient and dont mess your metabolism
