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

      Maybe not. I thought I was done a month ago, but since then I've lost a couple of pounds. Just stay the course and see what happens. When you're close to goal, weight loss is slower, but that doesn't mean it won't happen.

  3. Biggest mistake since surgery... Ramine Noodles... being lazy didn't pack lunch... Three bites and I want to vomit... oh the stomach pain....what the!!! Lord please let me puke....

      I have a problem with eggs, and last night I was eating my famous chicken,cabbage, zucchini, squash soup and felt puky after 2 bites..but it calmed down and 2 more bites I was full. My eyes are bigger than my stomach..can only eat about 4 small bites of anything.

      OH NO! I made the same mistake with just some pasta...a month or so ago I would have been 5 mon out...after 2 bites I swear it sat on the tummy like a BRICK! I said NOOO! no pasta for me for a while..it was soo heavy! I still only eat about 4 or 5 lil bites at one time an Im done. which is fine with me. keeps my portion little. I hope u get feeling better soon! thats one thing I have never done since new tummy is puke..I fought hard to just keep mine down an wait it out.

      BigGirlPanties

      how awesome is that...I don't think I'll ever get down to a 12...but a 14-16 would make me SO happy!

    1. wannaBthinsoon

      wannaBthinsoon

      That stinks!! Genepro is awesome though. You made a good choice. Too bad about the broken bag.

      BigGirlPanties

      I really wouldn't bother with returning...have you called them? they should just send a new package without receiving the old

    3. TEXASLADY52

      TEXASLADY52

      So sorry---I have had 5 bags without any problems....don't mail back....call them.

  12. What's for lunch today... Smoked Salmon on Bruschetta with a dollop of fat free cream cheese

  13. Well just figured out don't like cooking as much as I use to.... Did Christmas Candy last night... did not enjoy it like I use to.....

    1. IcanMakeit

      IcanMakeit

      I'm sorry it wasn't fun for you. I don't think I would enjoy making something I can't have a taste of right now. Maybe in the future that will change, but I think I will save my cooking creativity for foods that I can eat.

  14. Finally movement on the scales.... 1/2 pd i don't care I am counting it.

  15. My hair if falling out and I have been in a week and a half stall.... Encouragement anyone or suggestions for the hair loss?

    1. Packerfan61964

      Packerfan61964

      up your protein and liquid intake

      Try biotin, it's for hair, skin, and nails. Worked for me. Get the sublingual tablet in 1000 mg. Orange flavor, tastes great. Any health store should carry it. Also, get in the required amount of protein. That's hard to do, but very important.

  16. Weigh loss so dramatic I was accused of smoking crack...lol Just bought new uniform shirts from size xl (snug) to small.... what a journey.

      That's awesome. @Eclectick, everyone will lose differently, I am sure you already know. when you do get the sleeve, just remember to sip as much as possible and follow your doctor's plan. You will lose it in time.

  18. For a dollar more you can have all you can eat.... been on vacation for about 10 days heard it at least 4 times. No wonder I'm fat.......

      So it's 1am, 2 weeks post op, my redskins just beat Dallas & I run up to the convience store...I got me a power aide zero...needed some taste. But wow it felt amazing to walk by the pizza' hot dogs, than I drove past an opened McDonald's.....was weird but I did it :)

    2. Jordan861

      Jordan861

      Awesome... It is so wonderful when your relation ship with food changes.

  19. Vacation time....yeah 2 weeks

  20. Just back from a weigh in check up. The doc says I have lost 44% of excess weight. I asked him what 100% would be. I would weigh 136.... That sounds like a fairytale... Hope it is true

    1. Ginger Snaps

      Ginger Snaps

      That's great Jordan! Believe in the process... I'm down to my second pre-pregnancy weight already -- never dreamed it would happen but it can! Just keep moving forward!

       

      Congrats!

  21. Well I have uploaded the before and now pics... Oh the absolute shame. I am mortified. But I feel somehow freed by posting the pics. I feel strong that I faced it and came through.

      That is awesome......

  24. Just noticed I was watching the clock, waiting on eating time... Must stop only eat when hungry.

  25. Just saw a study from California State speaking of ideal weight.... Medium frame woman...100 pds for the first 5 feet of height and 5 pds for each additional inch.... Holy crap I can I dream of 125, that don't even seem like an obtainable number.

    1. finediva

      finediva

      Then I would have to weigh 115 pounds. That would never happen even after I've left this life and in my resting place for 10 years. I'm just saying.

    2. Kitt3000

      Kitt3000

      Yes finediva, I think it would put me six feet under! Or look like I should be... Lol!
