wow, you're doing an awesome job! I tried and tried to lose weight before my surgery, but I never could seem to. Keep it up and yay yay yay!

way to go! I hired a personal trainer at Bally's - tomorrow is the first day, so we'll see. I've been slacking.............need to get all those clothes off the treadmill in my room!

slim fast low carb and ceasar salad w/o croutons, chicken w/o skin or breading or anything....coke zero (sorry) and water

ok, I'm back - it's been a crazy week or so! Reilly had to get his first stitches, then got sick. School has started, and I've been working. Whew. I am counting down to my fill - yay Feb 22, that's 17 days. Hurry, hurry! Meanwhile I'm on the Bally's tip and hopefully can keep it up -

Ha ha! Ok, the Lsasha connection feel through, so I need help! Willing to drive to surrounding states! And Teresa, I did put down the fork, but I ate the pizza anyway

ok, I need a fill ASAP!!!!!!! My regular doctor is out for surgery. I am a Mexico, self pay patient, willing to drive. I live in Maryland, but I will go to VA, WV, DE, PA????? If ANYONE knows a doctor that takes self-pay in any surrounding area, please let me know! Thanks!

my fill doc, Dr. Brinkley, is out for a while, so I need afill doctor for self-pay Mexico patients. anyone have a clue?

I think that costs $. I just want a one time fill from someone, self-pay

Whenever the meeting is in Feb, I'm there!!!! I missed our Jan meeting because I was out of town, and I was sad to miss hanging out with all of you. LSASHA and TERESA what up!!!!

hello! I've missed you all sooooooooo much! I have been in Tennessee and all over! I am now having an emergency! I was scheduled to have a fill Jan 25 (next Wed) but now my doctor is going to be out and can't give fills until Feb 22!!! Anybody know where I could go to get a fill ASAP? It's an emergency because I have been stuck for a month, and I am starting to gain! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! :angry

ok, I've lost another 5 pounds, so I am 204.5 - only 5 pounds and my weight will start with a 1 !!! yipeee....I hope I can keep this up!

It sure is!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 And you have a right to be confident, you are fabulous!!!

Thanks girl, well I have been slacking but I am under a lot of emotional drama and stress right now - I'll tell all of you about it in another post, or at the next meeting. As far as exercising, I am just trying to do little things - stairs instead of elevator, parking far away - eating is good as far as no carbonation, and I am trying to eat better, I am doing ok, I just need to step it up. I still am taking my blood pressure medicine, I'm going to the doctor in a couple months for a check, meanwhile I check it regularly, and it's ok on meds...if I lose more weight maybe he'll take me off for a trial period. Brething is definitely better, along with back pain. It's just hard right now because I've always been an emotional eater, and noe I have turned into an emotional shopper. Good for the stores, bad for my bank account Anyway, thanks for letting me know someone's thinking about me and checkin up on me - I will try to do better!

I think our next meeting is Jan 8, but no location as yet. Hope you both can come!

Is that a Sunday? or a Saturday? I don't know, we could try the bowling thing...or the coffee house thing...whatever you think would be fun. Maybe we should set goals to meet by the next meeting or choose topics or something to talk about...just an idea. I'm excited to see all of you again in the new year - 2006! Where does the time go? And Ann, so glad you're here and doing well 3 days out, it gets better everyday. Take it easy, don't push yourself too hard, and we'll see you in January!

Ok, little sister, auxillary sounds great. Thanks for the support VQ and Marimu (we have the same doc). I don't want to stop losing weight, but at the same time I feel far from a rabbit. 1 - 2 pounds a week doesn't feel very fast to me...but who am I to complain? As long as it keeps coming off, I will be ok. Just to let you know, it's frustrating on this side of things too, because I just want it to go faster!!! I love all my big sister turtles and I will be checking in on you as usual!

I almost had a pb today, but it was just a bad feeling. That's what I get for trying to eat a taco...luckily my finals are over, I can start to focus on doing what's right for my body - like get my big butt to Bally's every once in awhile. Hope everyone does well over the holidays, I plan on being really strict because I want to lose 10 pounds to put me under 200. That's my little mini-goal.

I have been taking my biotin for a few days and I feel good about it...it's also supposed to help break down carbs as well as make your hair and nails stronger...my hair seems shinier and isn't falling out quite as much, maybe after a little while longer, none will fall out at all.

ok, buddha...think happy thoughts...I will lose weight...I will reach my goal...I will look cute...I will be a good momma...I will be happy with myself...ok, got it.

It's freezing outside!!!! but I did play with my child...my FINALS are over!!! thank the lord!!!! now hopefully I can focus on eating well & exercising - no excuses!!!

as long as the things you eat are good for you, you're ok. I am eating a small amount, but it is all bad for me, and yes I am losing weight, but it is not healthy at all. I know this, but still can't seem to make the lifestyle change.

ack. do not call me skinny until I am under 200 at least!!! I don't believe size 16 is skinny in any way, shape, or form. I would watch 24, I've just missed the first seasons so it would be pointless. My dad gets Alias on dvd, so we've been watching that and are now all caught up and waiting for the next season to come out.

I will just read your turtle posts until I have stopped rabbiting and am ready to be a member in good standing again.

ok, glad I'm not kicked out...even though I am doing some rabbiting. what's in the middle of a turtle and a rabbit? I love everyone here and you guys are doing great. Yes, for some people I think there is way more going on here...there definitely should be more weight loss, VQ. And doctors are sometimes incompetent, or as we say, on crack. There just has to be more to it, because it makes no sense. Maybe I am like a faster swimming turtle, and there are box turtles, and tortoises...?

I bought my biotin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ok, hair, stay put.
