      OMG! :) That is tooo funny! Not really, but YES! That is too funny. sorry... Listen: my father only had one toe (froze his feet) and my mother had nine (paper factory cutter) so all of us offspring have ten. Genetics are amazing... :)

      @Valentina My little pinky toe got caught in the leg of a vanity chair in my bathroom when I was stepping out of the tub.....still makes me cringe to think about it!!! the good news is now I get to ask for a 10% discount when I get a pedi!! haha

  3. So, I've proven myself right! I've been eating nuts since I was cleared to do so....but knew it was a slippery slope for me because I love love love nuts. For about 5 weeks eating nuts I averaged about 1.7 pounds lost per week......but I knew I eating too many nuts! This last week I stopped with the nuts and lost 3.2 pounds.....This is good information to have! I need to work on controlling my portion sizes because I don't want to not ever be able to have them.....but I think for now I'll keep myself in "timeout" from nuts for a while....3.2 pounds in a week feels better than nuts taste!!!

      @Caribear I know I've seen those.....I think it's best for me to avoid them for a while.....I want to track my weight loss for a few more weeks and see if it continues at the higher rate or if this week was just a fluke.

      I stopped eating them for the longest time for the very same reason. Now about 5 months later I have gone back to eating them but I portion them out and so far, I have been good about sticking to that portion when I do have them which is not every day. If in the future I slip, they simply won't get to stay a part of my food plan any longer.

      @Djmohr you sound exactly like me.....I was weighing and measuring but it was still hard for me to stick to just one serving, and I was having them everyday!......so time out for now! Later I'll try again, and if I have the same problem gone they will be......The one thing I do have control over is them coming into the house...hahaha

      Glad you are okay, I am from south Louisiana and my husband is from Florida so we are both familiar with hurricanes. We had a lot of family and friends we were worried about this time. So sorry about your fishy :(

  7. When people suck the life out of you, wouldn't it be nice if they took some fat too?...hahaha

      You really do wish there was an actual penalty for fun hating joy suckers besides karma. Like a $5-20 fine that would be an app for your phone. Hmmm, this might work.

  8. Wouldn’t life be perfect if sweatpants were sexy, Mondays were fun, junk food didn’t make you fat, girls didn’t cause so much drama, guys weren’t so confusing, and goodbyes only meant until tomorrow?

  9. Wow!! I'm not obese anymore!!! I'm just overweight!! I can't believe the progress I've made is just 3.5 months!

  13. Yes indeed! I just fit into one of my old size 14 capri's.....The day of surgery I wore a size 22 to the hospital...Not too bad for less than 3 months!!!

    1. kmorri

      kmorri

      @Valentina.....haha No! we don't have a president now or for that matter one in contention for the job that I would consider singing to! But yes I knew that about Marilyn Monroe....and quite frankly with all the vanity sizing they do now I bet back in her day a 14 was probably what our size 6 is now.

       

    2. Valentina

      Valentina

      Don't even get me started on politics!!!!!!!!!!! I WANT ANOTHER CHOICE!!!!!!!!!!! :)

      I've read that Marilyn was sown into the dress she wore "that" night, but WOW!!! Lady, that was nooo size 6!! No with all of those curves------must be like looking into a mirror for you, right? :)

      You are just rock'n this WLS thing.

    3. kmorri

      kmorri

      thank you @Valentina.............and I'm with you on the politics.....I want another choice as well. I have no idea what I'm going to do in November....it's a very sad and scary thing we're about to head into......I hate even thinking about it!
