    oldandtired got a reaction from I♡BypassedMyPhatAss♡ in Men are so frustrating!!!!   
    MY MAMA SAID...(God rest her soul, she's been gone almost 20 years) Anyway, Mama said that men do not want you to change. Subconsciously, they don't want you prettier, they want you less attractive to others. Over the years, I have...noticed...that she tended to be right, whether it was weight, a haircut, even clothing. Just saying, food for thought.

    My own wicked mind had the same question for me, and I thought about wrapping my pills in a piece of cheese. You know, like we do for our pets... 😂😂

    oldandtired got a reaction from Tomo in How often do you guys weigh yourselves?   
    I weigh *almost* every day, in the morning, after I pee, in panties and nothing else. (Why? I don't know-I just do, lol) Sometimes, when I hit a stall, I will stick out my tongue at the scale, but...😄

    Well, I'm sorta happy so far. Weight loss has slowed to a crawl; but I was tired of dieting, too. Physically, it's hard to eat too much. I generally don't get hungry, so I'm happy. I still lose, but so slowly. It's all such a personal thing! I know all I have to do is cut back a little more and I would lose more quickly. i guess if I started gaining, I would jump back on the strict bandwagon..

    I notice when I am sitting and bend over, kind of like to scratch my ankle or even tie my shoes I just bend. I don't spread my legs to make room for my stomach fat. I can bend completely in half with my upper body flat to my lap.
    Before, I didn't even have a lap. haha

    (Someone may have posted this before, if so, I apoligize..) My steering wheel is no longer touching my tummy. I am rather short, so I always have my seat forward, usually as far as it will go. And it was rubbing my tummy. Now it isn't!

    There are lies, damned lies, and statistics.
    You lose at your unique rate. Comparing to others, not matter how great yours are, are disappointing.
    Good luck,

    I went clothes shopping with a friend today. Normally I wear a 22 or 24. Today I actually squeezed into an 18 in 2 different brands. I didn’t buy them, I think I’m 10-20 pounds away from that…but the fact that I get them on and my friend said I looked good, meant the world to me. I even got a few 2x shirts instead of the 3x I normally wear. But with that being said, I also did get a few 3x, due to the cuts being different. I’m on cloud 9!

    You can have your appointment with your bariatric doc, but unless he knows what it is, go to your regular G.P. -- I have found through life that specialists, if it is not in their narrow little field, tend to not be as helpful as you might think. Besides, it is good to play "catch up" with your regular doctor.

    Mashed potatoes were a must for me. It was, for a while the only thing that didn't cause waves of nausea or make my stomach hurt. Tomato Soup was another. No Protein, but sometimes....
