  1. I am setting up a BP profile so that I can interact instead of reading through posts like some sort of a stalker.

  2. I just got back from shopping for clothes for Spring. I'm tired of winter colors and heavy fabrics. Bring on the pastels. While there, a sales clerk referred to me as "petite." What!?

  3. Today I learned that I am perfect. And so it shall be. :D

  7. ok so-----i havebeen away for 6 months!!! i let life get in the way! i am down 63 pounds & im happy with that HOWEVER! i have been at the same weight for 6 weeks!!! i have gotten a new job that i am going non stop for 6 hrs & i joined a gym with a PT! & the weight will not budge! im getting sooo discouraged! i guess i need to come clean & tell you the rest. i have gotten comfortable. by that i mean i have stopped weighing & writing down my food! so i have decided to go back to where i started and regroup! trying really hsrdnotto give up & say F#$@ it! any word of wisdom or advice would be greatly appreciated.

  8. Damn, I didn't get the job. With all the post-op hormones I feel absolutely crushed. Next interview tomorrow, here we go again...

  9. Answer: No. Question: Will drinking carbonation or through a straw stretch my sleeve?

  10. 2 week post op with physician today. Total of 18.1 pounds lost. Dr. Suggs very pleased with outcome of surgery and post op thus far. I am soooo happy!

  11. Today i reached goal! From bmi 42.7 to bmi 22. Thats 140 lb lost. SO happy & proud!

  12. I found myself choosing clothing this morning that makes me look fuller. I guess I don't like all the "too thin" comments. Everybody needs to back off.

  13. Ugh! This 49er Faithful is struggling with all these changes! Not happy.

  14. I just couldn't bring myself to weigh this morning!

  16. Some people get really boggled about making their goal weight and being rail thin. You know? I would be just as content if can just get out of plus size. That is all I ask for right now.

  17. All weight loss has stopped - times 3 weeks....ugghhh I guess it is over

  18. How realistic is it to want to be in the infamous onderland by my birthday....19 April??

      It would be better to set a goal that you can control, like an exercise challenge or something. Although you are in charge of what you eat, your body is in charge of your weight loss rate. Some people lose slower than others and they are perfectly on track. It's very individual. We all can get to the same place, but not necessarily at the same time.

  19. I was in a panic this week because I tried on a blouse that I had been wearing and it was too small. FREAKED ME OUT! So I got on the scale with a lot of trepidation to find out that I am still at the same weight I've been at over the past 6 months - WHEW!!! Turns out, my husband did the was and shrunk my blouse :( but glad :) all at the same time!

  20. slipped on ice - hurt back - i feel terrible and sad - DH is helping me by brinking my water to me!!! he is aces - very smart too - after all he married me !!! LOL

  21. Hello Everyone !! I am new on here and see that some people have already gotten their gastric surgery. Im going to set up my profile and everything but I have a HUGE question for you guys. Im thinking about going with BeLiteWeight but am nervous has anyone else been to Mexico for their surgery ? Im so scared from all the bad things that I've heard about Mexico but my coordiantor Ishi seems pretty reassuring ? I will be getting the sleeve and havent set a date yet I just want to talk to someone and get some sort of feedback. I liive in Texas so Mexico is not that far from me and the cost is ok since I will be paying out of pocket.

  22. Don't be upset about the results you didn't get with the work you didn't do.

  23. Made it to Onderland!!! It's been 20+years!!!

  24. Lasst weigh in was 6 Feb and I was 278.....today I am 265! My grandma said it took her a year to lose 26 pounds! This all makes this liquid crap I'm drinking taste SOOOOO MUCH BETTER!!!!!!!!!
