  1. Making a conscious effort to up my protein to way over my 60grams. I have read where some of the smaller people on this forum were the ones getting 80-100 grams. It's hard! Today I've felt like I was almost miserably stuffing myself. I put a scoop of protein in my coffee and also had a shake. I hate shakes. I hate being fat more so I will drink the stinking shake if it will help just my little experiment. We are suppose to have a formal military ball in Oct so I wanna be a hot mama in a hot dress!!
  2. Wow 5hrs is crazy. Well hope the MRI worked with getting u the results u need. have a good one.
  3. Hey that's awesome tho!!! It's gonna catch up!!
  4. Holy moly..been taking flax seed caps and also occasional flax cookies. I started adding flax to my Greek yogurt..I found the whole flax seeds which were 1.99 at Publix for a pint and tmi alert... No more constipation!!! I am so shocked how much it worked! They honestly aren't bad either.
  5. The only reason I took so much lovenox was because of a clotting disorder. Wasn't fun but I'm grateful for my surgeon taking such measures to keep me from getting a clot. Honestly my biggest fear was throwing a clot and dying after surg. Not bad tho and worth the preventative measure.
  6. Did it 2 weeks before and 2 weeks after surgery. Really not painful maybe a tiny tiny sting at times. Don't rub the site after you give it to prevent bruising. It's just a minor speed bump on the road to a wonderful new life! Congrats on your date!!
  7. I wish I could stay at home and do this as a living! I'm too slow tho and still learning but I love it. This and my garden are about my greatest ways to let it all go and escape.
  8. Had mine Apr 30th. Shy of 4 months right now. People here are amazing. I've learned so much. Just this last maybe month have I finally felt like I've got my food intake down when I'm managing well. I'm down 46lb. I'm pretty happy so far with my progress. I'm prob a bit slower a loser but I also not as heavy as some. Idk. I'm happy tho. I meet the pa who is covering for our dr with dr lord on fri.
  9. So I was busy and cleaned house and worked in my garden getting ready for fall planting and cleaned out my front flower bed. I'm severely already feeling like my back is gonna fall apart. I did however sit awhile after supper and finished another quilt. Not really my favorite one but its for my neighbor and is a sweet gesture I suppose.
  10. I'd love for u to come!!
  11. Woohoo for 53lbs!!! That totally rocks!!! I hope your foot gets better and I'm so glad it's not broken!! Sounds like a busy week! I love hosting parties and showers. I'm trying to talk my husband into having a huge opening day of college Football party
  12. So glad u had such a wonderful time. Sounds amazing.
  13. Have fun!!! So exciting!!!
  14. small world. How are u doing afterwards? I'm doing great. Feeling a bit lost with him out now but I'm keeping on the keeping on
  15. So..you guys have any big plans for this week? I just enrolled online for the local college and decided gonna take some more classes to start trying towards the next step. That is if I can get all my financial aid worked out! Any good weight loss? I haven't weighed prob a week? Can't remember. Hope I didn't put any on with being out from home a bit. You are so right too about confidence..I have suffered from terrible low self esteem For a long time and even to the point where I didn't like myself enough to even think I was worth it. That is truly one of the biggest thins I'm liking..that shred of confidence I feel myself gaining.
  16. Well..I honestly have talked to my sister in law about my husbands step mother and how she treats people and has managed to alienate other members. As we were leaving today I told her that regardless due to my raising I would have never disrespected her in my home not would my "ignorant" family cause that's not how we were raised. I think it hurts my husband to know I have always been polite and tolerated her mouth and kept a smile on my face even with her little digs and now there is no going back for me. He knows no one would dream on doing anything like that to him to make him even remotely uncomfortable. I literally wash my hands of all Of her negative ways. I thank u guys for all the love
  17. I really appreciate all of y'all. It has honestly been good to talk with my husband today. He actually told them that my family nor anyone I know of would have ever ever treated him in anyway like I was and that he knew for sure nobody ever would have received that kinda treatment in our Home either. I just hope one day I can get to where I can tolerate them again. I don't want to alienate him from him family but I truly don't feel like they are MY family. Thanks for all the support. It's truly amazing and why I totally call y'all my friends
  18. My husbands mom died when he was 7. This is step mom #2. She has no kids and she is obnoxious. I've just tried to stay out of her way and be pleasant for the 1-3x a yr we see them. She has always been vocal and rude. I never really thought my father in law would join in on it tho. We are leaving shortly. I had no sleep and my head is killing me. I am so glad to go home.
  19. Thank u! That means the world to me.
  20. Til in the morn. I hope I never have to darken the door here again
  21. No. He said they feel awful and have told him that but I won't go near them. Fortunately a large house to where I can totally separate myself from them.
