I get dizzy every now and then. It happens mostly when I stand up too quickly. I am properly hydrated and get plenty of protein in my diet. I've had my sugar levels checked and everything is nomal.

Cate - that's great. The best thing to do is to start with a few and then build your way up. I should probably start doing more because I'm not feeling much resistance anymore. I did mix it up last time and did the Buns of Steel video, which incorporates A LOT of variety and kicks my arse! As soon as this cold is gone, I'm back to the grind! Yay!!

Congratulations, MyChevyGirl!! Everyone deserves a BIG round of applause for joining the challenge. :clap2: :clap2: Cate - you look fantastic. Congrats, girl. P.S. I put up my bathing suit pictures on the 1st page of the thread. P.S.S. Love ya, Telly! :love:

Great news, Amy! I'm so happy to hear that you're feeling better (and that you got laid)!! :biggrin1:

That sounds like a good idea but I'm not taking one now and posting it. I'm in my jammies! I will do it tomorrow though. :biggrin1:

Wow, girl, you look absolutely amazing.

My first choice would be Sara Rue, but I also like Mia Tyler's body, which is probably where I'll end up.

She stars in the ABC sitcom Less Than Perfect with Andy Dick.

@ Brad Pitt!

@ Brad Pitt! Oops, wrong thread.

None of the above. I'm shooting for a body like Sara Rue.

My surgeon and his nurse practitioner are fine with my consuming an average of 800-900 calories per day. I've been doing this from the start and have been averaging 1-2 pounds per week. I wasn't a big eater to begin with, which is part of the reason why they're ok with it. As far as carbs are concerned, I try (notice I said "try) to limit my total daily intake to 50 grams per day. With the fat grams, I try to limit my total intake to 30-35% of total calories per day.

Holy crap! Pun intended.

My surgeon recommended against caffeine for the first 8 weeks but said I could have it after that. I always use Splenda though. As far as soda is concerned, my surgeon advises against it due to all of the carbonation in it. Pre-banding, I drank diet soda. Since being banded, I've had a few sips, nothing more. I'm all about the flavored Water now.

A good colon cleansing never hurt anyone. Then again, I wouldn't know.:eek

Indeed, I do. Hmm....well, maybe some milk of magnesia. I've never really had an issue with it but my surgeon recommended that I buy it just in case. Or, have a small salad for dinner. Roughage, ya know.

Hee hee!! Have I mentioned lately that you're a dork?
