What will you look like at 6 months AKA your 6-month goals
My goal (and wish) is to hit 50 lbs by my six month goal. To be in a size 22 (which I haven't been in for about four years) And to see my collar bone. I can feel it now...I want to see it! I've been depressed. Ashamed. The scale hasn't moved in so long it seems. I only lost 7 lbs in six weeks from this fill I just got and it was a big one. I was scheduled for a fill on the 17th, but my air went out and I am currently paying for that then I found out that I have a plumbing leak so I had to cancel my fill, I can't afford it right now and so that makes me really really sad. I had stopped working out, so it was my fault I just didn't have any...motivation I guess. Or my sadness weighed me down and I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I am motivated now, I hope. I swam laps in the pool yesterday and it was pretty enjoyable. My gym has a large swimming pool and I think that I have found my new favorite exercise. I may even be able to convince my self descructive side to go to the gym at least twice a week. Wish me luck. I have to get these 10 lbs off are I will scream.:thumbup:

That will be great. It's good to have an interweb quit buddy because two real life friends should NEVER try to quit togethor in my opinion.

I quit a year before my surgery and I worked so hard on quitting, but recently I have started again. And I have set myself a quit date. August 17th. I got the lapband to be healthy and smoking would totally destroy everything I am doing, not to mention it makes me tired and I can't work out as easily. So, I'm quitting. Let's quit huh?

Grrrrrrr
I agree. Do you know what I would do to my girlfriend if she brought a picture of me 7 years ago and said, Look at how good you used to look baby. ? Oh it wouldn't be pretty. Thankfully I am with a loving, caring, intelligent lady who values her life. That was a good reply neptune. I was just got so deeply offended when I read her original post.

I respect your right to an opinion...but go have it somewhere else.
Plain- I just read your post and cracked up. Elenation- You anger strangely gives me hope for humanity. It is illegal in most states, but in louisiana we are at at will state which means that you can pretty much be fired for sneezing. Your employment is "at will" of the employer.

Here was my reply to HER What did you expect < ReadySteadyandGo > 07/16 05:12:25 If you have been with her for three years, then I would think your love would be strong enough to handle some butt jiggle. Of course she got insecure. Do you think that she is ecstatic to be gaining weight? Really? Maybe it really bothers her and here you go and tell her how fat she is and that she needs to lose weight. If you concerned about her health, thats one thing. It was a good idea to say that you both need to work out but it didn't work so you just called her fat? She will work out when she feels ready to change something. You can't humilate her into working out or losing weight, or you shouldn't because that would be cruel. If you love her as you say you do. Then you would love her fat, sick, healthy, skinny, or muscular. People get older, things happen. Maybe she is depressed. Maybe you should reach out to her. Or maybe her metobolism is slowing down...I don't know how old you guys are. If you can't love her for some extra weight, then maybe your not the girlfriend you thought (and she thought) you were. Then again, you know whats important to you, and if you have to have a lean girlfriend and you can't get over it and love her anyway, then maybe it's time to move on. I just feel really sorry for your girlfriend, who has given you "three good years" of her life and is being rejected for not being as hot as she used to be. But better for you to both find out now then in another 10 years.

This was a post on the craigslist forum on the w4w. I go hang out there while I'm at work to kill time when I'm not buzy or waiting for a phone call. Help!! Relationship issues : / < ccLIFE03 > 07/16 01:49:39 Okay since I don't have too many lesbian friends i am turning to CL for my help. I have been in a relationship for about a good 3 years. I love my girlfriend but over time she has dwindled her shows of going above and beyond and has started to slowly gain weight. Now I am no super model but I do try my best to stay in shape because she did fall in love with my body as well as my emotional attributes. Since she has started to gain weight i have hinted at the fact that maybe WE need to work out and it didn't work. I have stated the thing women hate to hear, me personally - that she is gaining some weight; didn't work. That one actually backfired leading to her growing insecure and defensive rather than hearing me out. She says if i REALLY love her I am going to continue to love her but she is putting on too much that it's gotten to the point that I'm losing the physical attraction at rapid rates. I don't know if i should be feeling this way but I don't wanna cheat but I'm afraid maybe years from now at the rate we're going, I'll lose all physical attraction and I might. IS THIS WRONG? I always thought you do everything you can for your partner and if I'm crying out to her and she's making me deal with it, is it because I'm wrong or what? I'm so confused can anyone please help me out

I respect your right to an opinion...but go have it somewhere else.
Thanks Heartfire. Obviously it wasn't a place I would want to have stayed at anyway. by the by, do you know what drives me even more crazy than upfront racism? Something like this. "Hey I'm not racist, I know this one black guy and he's really nice, I mean he acts white. Ugh. Saying that someone is a really nice man because they act like a certain race? There are good people and bad people not good race and bad race. Drives me crazy to listen to that crap. Thats a statement from someone not at work. He I was able to tell off, especially when he said that President Bush was doing a good job considering what he was dealing with. You know, the liars, the terriost, the lesbians...I don't know what he meant by that- but I had no idea the terroist, liars, and lesbians were in the same catagory. I don't fault someone for their political affiliation, but - I am not a terroist or a liar so what the hell was he talking about? Thanks for allowing me to vent and say all the things I want to say to those idiots that talk to me at work. It's not often, but it is about once a month I get a comment like that, obviously the day I started this post being one of them.

I am going to stab someone
I'm calmer now. I have no weapons to speak of. Your right, Ezma it is a smaller company, not a chain or anything. I will go talk to her. I just get so annoyed at ignorant people sometimes.
