Well stated Marcia. Some of mine are to keep good care of my health. Workout six days a week for one hour. Like you Marcia to know that I am ok by myself and to stop dating trashy women. It used to be men just wanted sex but now it's the women who are the aggressors.

Shakti a couple failures does not define you as a person. Don't let negative thought take over. Every day a sunrise happens and gives us new hope! We all love and care about you.????

i am pretty sure this t resort for each of us. thank heavens we have each other. we are all human. Just remember that the only difference between a success and failure is the amount of times the successful person got up, dusted themselves off and tried again. Even if we have a blip--we just need to get back on track as soon as possible. And forgive ourselves. That is the biggest thing. Realizing that we aren't perfect but that is OK but we are amazing! Don't forget that, Shakti!

Shakti don't beat yourself up. It is going to happen. It is OK to slip up. . My dr told me that if I really thought I was craving something to just have it but be smart and in moderation

i started on ths journey the begining of March 2015 i am down almost 85 pounds i actually think that i might make my goal of losing 100 pounds in a year. i am not a big loser---just a consistant one. thanks everyone for going on this journey with me, New Year's resolution??? Just to continue to remember to put myself first. Try to own and embrace what I am feeling rather than trying to appear perfect and eat away my feelings. Say "yes" to myself more often and "no" to things that I don't want to do. Continue to enjoy my own company. Remember what an amazing woman I am.
What are some of your resolutions?

getting game day ready! ROLL TIDE ROLL

So I am painfully close to onederland... 204 now. I'm going for it by January 1st (with fully realistic expectations of not quite getting there...5 lbs by Friday is not that real -- but it can't hurt to have a goal post to shoot for right?) After allowing myself a holiday weekend, I'm going to be pushing a lot of Water and Liquid Protein the next few days to get back on track.
It's funny how I let myself eat what I wanted (within safe parameters) for Christmas and still barely had 1000 calories and lost 2 lns last week. I love my baby banana tummy. <3

Wishing my Sleeved family a very Merry Christmas! <3 love you guys!

Merry Christmas to All!
Down 75 lbs overall, size 38 waist, and no longer obese -- this Sleeve has to be the best gift I have ever received...
By the way, I survived my neighbor's Christmas Eve Gourmet dinner last night.
During the hors d'oeuvre segment, I had two jumbo shrimp and two small pieces of cheese.< /li> I pretty much skipped the huge salad (had one tiny bite and pushed stuff around). Then I ate most of the main course (Coquil St. Jacque) I even dipped a piece of bread in the incredible broth to finish off the meal. When the dessert came around (Chocolate cake), about 20 minutes had passed and I even had room about half a piece. After 12 weeks, I feel that I am close to where I always wanted to be!

Just want to say merry Christmas to all of you. I love you all and your in my thoughts as we enter the new year.

I have no hunger and little interest in food now.
I feel like a horrible mom because I can't even get motivated to cook for my teenage kids. And they still have teenage appetites. *sigh*
Edited to add: I literally feel like I am just eating to get my Protein goals. Most days once I hit my goal, my first thought is "thank god I don't have to eat any more today" It's a relief more than anything. It's a loooooong way from presurgery thinking. Lol

Sounds great. I am going to try it. Thanks for sharing. I hope everyone has a great Christmas too.

Merry Christmas to all, and hang tough!

Merry Christmas every one..

Thank You RG
It was such a great experience to walk across that stage! But the best part was I graduate with my husband and this day is only topped by our wedding day and the birth of our children.   

Yes that discribes me exactly. I have zero hunger now and I love it.

Tomorrow I will be eleven weeks post op. And through these weeks I've gone from being hungry every two hours and worried that I was over eating to not having an appetite or hunger pains at all. Only when I start to feel weak and shaky do I realize, I need to eat something. The problem lies in nothing sounds appealing.
Is anyone else having this issue?
