  1. 70 pounds is amazing. Think about it. 70 pounds!!!!don't compare your self to others . Do you look better? Do you feel better?are you healthier? Are you wearing smaller size clothes? Be happy for your self. You will get here . Keep the faith.
  2. You are doing great! I am only 5 feet tall and am out 7 months and lost 40pounds. But as you said. It's not high numbers but I was in a 16 -7 months ago and a loose 10 now. If I got down to an 8 I don't know how I will act. I never could sustain anything below a 10.
  3. Head hunger and bad habits are the worst. I have good days and bars days. Slow loss but it's ok . I don't deny myself anything . It's usually a couple of bites then I feel it unless it's ice cream. Then my stomach feels crappy after.

  13. I caught myself today going right to food when I was supper stressed . The good thing was ... There wasn't a lot of food in the house but in 90 minutes I had a protein shake 5 pretzels and a protein bar. It's really scary ...
  14. I wish. But I am 55 ... Still struggling in that area myself.

  16. It will go away. I was told to have a cup of hot tea a half hour before I ate. It seam to help. I am 31/2 months out and liquids are still easier that food. But I can eat anything now. Jut not much of it

  19. I was ok 8 weeks out with wine but by 13 weeks out I can't handle it any more. Went right to my head. I am a cheep date. Appitizer for dinner and cannot Finnish 1 glass I wine.
  20. I am 14 weeks out and I eat anything I want. As stated before 3 or 4 bites and I am good. It is awesome to not worry about food and exercise. Don't get me wrong. I log my protein. Protein is always first . Then liquids. And I am going to the gym to exercise, to strengthen my body. Not to lose weight. It is so amazing that I don't have to guilt myself out it a strange and wonderful thing. I wish that I had done this years ago. I am 55.
  21. I have tea in the hospital and I have milk every day.
