  1. LizaLee, I went shopping today and picked up some GoLean cereal, I'm anxious to try it in the morning. My only concern was the grams of sugar. I try to keep sugar low, and calories. My girlfriend tells me not to worry about sugar just count the calories. Thanks for the advice.
  2. Thanks everyone for all the suggestions on what to eat. I've been taking notes. I know that fish is really good for us, but...its a problem for me. I only like it fried...grrrrr. I bought some seasoned Talapia at Sams and did not like it at all. I do like tuna, I will make a salad and add my tuna. The advice on the Slim Fast makes so much sense. Will give eggs a try. Thanks again !! This site is so great.
  3. Long & Lizalee thanks for the info. Lizalee I am the opposite, I like to munch more in the evening. Long, I probably don't get enough protein with the Smart Ones, that is a problem from me, if I don't take that I don't know what to take. I've never tried the egg beaters, do they taste like real eggs? I weighed this morning, scales finally moved down a bit.
  4. Janet, your Aunt is soooo close to me. Would love to meet you when you visit, let me know if it can be arranged. Pj
  5. Long...Congratulations on your weight loss, you have done so well. I was wondering if you would share with me what you're doing? I'm struggling right now. I go next Wednesday for my 3rd fill, and have gained 1 lb since last fill. I normally drink a Slim Fast for Breakfast, have a Smart One for lunch, then dinner is whatever. I need suggestions for dinner. Please help!! Would love some advice. Pj :Dancing_sorry:
  6. Where does your Aunt live in Texas? I'm in Texas also. Would love to meet you.

  12. WTG Claudine, that is great !!! :w00t:
  13. Azlife, that is GREAT !! I know that made your day, sure would mine. Congrats on your almost 50 lb loss. WTG !! Maybe I should wear my clothes that I was wearing when I started diet, then maybe peeps would notice. I have size 22-16 in 3 of my closests plus clothes in storage bins in garage. My weight has always gone up and down...so, since I've lost I have gone down 1 size and wearing clothes that fit since I already have them. OH well...that will be my greatest day, when someone says something to me....waiting......:eek:
  14. I won't be reaching my goal, but I'm very happy that I lost. Its been a struggle between my 2nd and 3rd fill.

  16. Lindar !! That is Awesome! I have lost 33 1/2 lbs. No one I work with or anyone in my family has commented on my weight loss. It hurts. My son in Ga. will ask how much have you lost. I think maybe my co-workers and family nearby don't say anything because when I lose I tell them all and they say, that's great. So...I have decided not to ever say anything again unless they ask. I'm going to wait and see who and how long it will be before someone says...Pj you are really losing weight. :thumbup: I bet that made your day!!! WTG
  17. Yum...chicken enchilada casserole sounds great, will you post the recipe plz?
  18. I had a great NSV last weekend. Before my surgery my BP was very high, also I could not walk to the back of the grocery store without getting out of breath. Last Saturday DH and I went to a Fall Festival with GD to see her gymnastics class perform. I had to walk so far and I was not out of breath at all. That was so exciting for me !! BP is doing much better, should be getting off of it soon. Share your stories everyone, enjoy hearing everyones NSV's.
  19. Happy Friday everyone. Last week....214.50 Today...........213.50 I am happy with the 1 lb, at least I didn't gain. :wink_smile:
  20. Today I got my 3rd fill. I now have 7 cc's in a 10 cc band. I have been starving all day. Was suppose to stay on liquids but I haven't been able to. I had some yogurt, peanut butter/crackers, tomato soup. Should I be feeling this hunger after a fill. Seems to me like 7cc's is a lot. I'm confused :sad_smile:
  21. Hugs Janet. Was worrying about you, so sorry you are going through this. Take care of yourself, and know you are in our prayers.
  22. I think its great!! " Congratulations " Not doubting you at all. I can't wait to reach a size 16. The taller you are the slimmer you are. I was just curious, didn't know your height. Keep up the good work !!!
  23. What causes all your hernia's?
  24. I'm so curious. You are wearing a size 16 jeans at 230 lbs? I now weigh 217 and just got into an old pair of size 20's I had. I am 5'4" tall. I was wearing 16's when I was like 185 lbs.
