china

hi just wanted to day we have the same date, maybe we can chat some times. good luck and to all the other december soon to be banders.

hi kerry, thanks for the kind words it feels good to kno that there is others going thru the same thing or at least understand what im feeling. i have lost 34lbs but, 3 of that was before i started the program and the other 31 is out of the 39 program said i have to lose. i have come so close i can almost taste it. starting liquid diet today. so we will c what happens. my dr didn't require liquid diet he does south beach. but, im gone try the liquid one and see how it works.

thank you so much for that i really needed that. i have brushed my shoulders off and moved on as there is nothing i can do as its already done. so i have to move forward and get back on the horse and keep it moving. its good to have others going through it too. i to want to wear the skinny jeans, but, most of all i want to be around for me and my family. i want the band for me. a better life. im working on getting the mind frame of eating to live rather than living to eat as this is how i got fat. so thank you for not letting me drop the ball. on my way back to the gym for an hr. went earlier for 2hrs and i felt so good when i left that im going back for more. i feel so good since i go to the gym now. before i use to always feel tired. now i have way more energy. does anybody else workout. and has anyone tried the southbeach workout tape?

hi all, im kind of having a bad day, yesterday i did enjoy thanksgiving and didn't overeat or any thing. said i was gonna be done with it and get back on track today yet, i eat a cup of dressing and 2 bites of one slice of ham. i felt so low that i went the the gym and worked out for 2hrs. now im here and saying to my self if i cant stick to a diet now, how am i gone do it later. just wondering if anyone else has fallen of the band wagon since they started the journey for the band. i go for my surgery on 12-15-08. and i still need to loose 8lbs. yet, i go for my final weigh in on 12-08 and i feel so scared. feel like im loosing it. could really use some great words right now anyone have any coments.

hi just wanted to say happy thanksgiving. im sitting here thinking we only have 17days and a wake up. im gonna eat today but not over eat. then im getting back on in the game starting friday. gotta work extra hard these next few weeks. wanna try and loose 12lbs by my surgery date. so im at the gym 5 days a wk. hell im nervious im not gone lie. but, im excited and kno that im gone be alright.

ok i have been doing south beach for a miniute now have lost 15lbs right and going to the gym 5 days a wk. im losing alot of inches but, the weight has slowed down alittle. im not happy with that. im trying so hard to loose the 39lbs. so that i can get the damn surgery. just wanted to get how im feeling in going to the dr on the 28th of this month so we will see what happends.

that would b great if u could i eat alot of chix breast.

have been eating alot of chicken and veggies. and alot of water. i she gave it to me also. just alot of the things that are on there i dont eat. but, i can do chicken. and steak some times. gets alittle hard to cook 2 seperate meal for you and for the family. but, im gone hang in there as i really want this.

give me some suggestion on what u eat

ok kaybug, just read you have a health problem so that changes things alot. you said he is now more understanding. that is good i can be worked out. mines wasn't. nothing wrong with having to talk to some one every now and then. your right its hard on both parties. but, if he makes you feel funny they talk to him. so he can understand your point. my ex wasn't willing to talk just wanted thing his way so i sent his a$$ packin. but, i see that's not the case with your hubby and you. it doesn't sound like he knows how you feel about what he said. talk to him. sorry for the misunderstanding.

hi kaytiebugs, i know how you feel as i have been there before. you have a right to feel that way. i couldn't get over what was said to me tried to deal with it for a few more monthes but, it was just making matters worst. went from having sex almost everyday to maybe 1 a month. we weren't married but, had been together for 5 years. i took my baby and left. why becuz in deserve more than that. plus i didn't want my daughter to think that it was ok to focus on ones weight. i said to him i supported you throught 3yrs of not having a job. you have the nerve to tell me to loose weight or you would leave. no you dont have to leave me im already gone. like i said it took time for me to reach that point. till this day there is still that hatered toward him for the way he made me feel but,i have to get along with his norrow mined a$$ for the sake of my daughter. i told him he is a good father but, he was not a good partner. took him 2yrs and 4 women to say sorry. i have moved on im with someone that excepts me as i am. how dare your husband say this. ya took a vow for better or worst. what if the shoe was on the other foot? in my opion your hubby seem selfish. there is bigger things in life to worry about. people chang everyday some for the good others for the bad. what if you told your husband if he ever starts to look old you will leave how do you think he would feel?. i think you should tell your husband how he made you feel. he might not even know he hurt you but, he does.

thanks for the responce so here is what i ate today and tell me what you think b-2turkey sausages, flavored Water s-hand full of nuts, water l-sm. salad,water,med. coffee s- slim fast shake, Peanut Butter Protein bar d-6 large shrimps, 1 cup of stir fried veggies, water, hot tea w/2 slenda packets. i dont feel hungry for a change. it was alright i have to do this for another 10 days then i go back and see the dietion.
