  1. Honey your body is adjusting, you may have lost a few pounds but what about inches. Feel free to measure again. I know you have your measurements. I have not lost much but people say they are seeing the diffrence and I can actually buy a smaller size clothes. Do you need to give us a positive word for the day? Oh yeah besides your family ....I love you!!!
  2. Avilla I am not going to sing my song because you have been here with me. Time is on your side and you have to stay positive. It takes time, look at it as a plateau. Your body has been through a lot over the years and you are trying to fix it all in a matter of months. Nooo it takes longer then that. Look at you, 2.5 pounds away from your halfway point and you mean to tell me that by your bandiversary you won't have more then that off. You have a lost every month and this one won't be any diffrent. You have 4 months and in that time I know you will look awesome. It sounds like someone needs a reality check. Where are the pics? You need a new picture so you can see the progress.
  3. GOOD MORNING PEOPLE I see some good news out there. Avilla I am so proud of you and your son. I know he is on cloud nine. Keep up the great eating habits. Tann your commitment and dedication is next to none. You guys are great for trying to get those 2 45min cardio sessions in. I got 1 in Saturday but Sunday I just ran up and down the stairs all day. My legs, hips and thighs are hurting today so I know I worked something.
  4. You guys a an awesome weekend. Tann I can't wait to see your before and progression pics. Keep up the great work.
  5. Turner24 I'm with you. I just gave an invitation to a friend last night to come help me get on my hands and knees to clean the wood floors. They need some extra attention since we have been tracking salt from oustside since it snowed. I also need to clean the baseboards. Work....Whewww
  6. That Is A Resounding Yes!!!
  7. Whew Tann you make me dizzy with all that you get into. Just be careful and be sure to take your supplements. Thanks Niecyrenee and Tann that sounds good. Weekend Challenge! 2-45 min. cardio workouts :clap2: :clap2:
  8. Yes....RUN....
  9. You are right, do you have something in mind. I see you jumping up and down. Spill it:spit:
  10. Good Morning People today is Friday. I hear some people are going to have some nice warm weather this weekend and others are going to have some cold snowy stuff. I think I fall into the cold stuff kinda. Temp is going to be clouydy45 tomorrow and rain and possible sleet on Sunday. I plan on getting out to a couple of museums for Black History Month this weekend. I really need to get out and walk.
  11. Hi Nursedeeve Welcome Aboard and Congratulations. That is good you are not hungry. Focus on getting in your 64oz fluids to stay hydrated. I was hungry on the 5th day after surgery. I was tired of the liquids. Thanks BarbaraC
  12. Everyone is diffrent and some may say it doesn't work but why not try it. We have created some really bad eating habits so we have nothing to lose but weight by trying it. Great job on the 30 pounds Yvonne.. WOOHOO!
  13. Welcome aboard and Good Luck
  14. Good Morning Yvonne Well my doctor says not to drink 30 minutes before or 30 minutes after you eat so the food can stay in your pouch longer. Always feel free to contact your doctors office with questions. They are use to them.
  15. BOOYA JANETC THAT IS WHAT I LIKE TO SEE. ENTHUSIASM OF COMMITMENT COMING IN THE DOOR. GREAT JOB BECAUSE YOU KNOW IT IS NEVER TOO LATE!!! :clap2: :clap2: YOU HAVE A PLAN SO YOU WILL SUCCEED. LET'S DO THIS TOGETHER!!!
  16. Tann you do you and it working for you. Sometimes you have to jumpstart the weight loss. Your Snacks are good. I hope you are taking a Multivitamin daily to help get in your nutrients. When I want to help my loss along I go back to basics. A shake in the morning and salad for lunch.
  17. Oh wow 5 pounds is wonderful....you are on your way. LOL
  18. I am so tired of food and thinking about food. What's for dinner, what's for breakfast, is that going to go down or is it going to get stuck, how many calories is in that.... :phanvan I decided to drink today. I was hungry so I bought a gallon of water and a powerade. Oh and I have a vanilla slim fast with me but it is not my favorite. I still had trouble on deciding what to buy to drink. I didn't want it to be calorie filled.
  19. Walk in place, run up and down the stairs which is great for the butt also. LOL Drink your water....you know what to do. Good Luck you will continue to succeed.
  20. Teresita commented on kutia's blog entry in kutia's Journal
    Timspa baby...LOL I couldn't resist. You are too cute...the boarder guards. LOL You are doing an amazing job and I would appreciate it if you keep breathing. Congratulations and Good Luck Hey if you shaved your head you would be under 200....just a thought.
  21. WOW your surgery is right around the corner. Good luck and it is great that you like your surgeon.
  22. When they fall off, they fall off is good. If they are still in tact at the port area, personally I would leave those but the others could come off with some gentle rubbing with a wash cloth.
