Hi Ladies, I was scheduled to see Dr.Park today and she cancelled again this is like the third time she has had to reschedule with me. I hate it! That's my venting for the day. Hope everyone is doing well. Tina change your siggy, I know it keeps me motivated often. girl you are doing fine.

Hi Donna, Looking forward to Friday. 1p.m. works for me. Thanks Nicole I think I will. B: I small fried egg L: 1/4c boiled chicken, 10 mini multisee crackers and 1oz pepperjack cheese D: not yet :-)

Thanks Tina, I feel bloated wth the benefiber.I'll try hot tea. I think rasberries are fine and so are blueberries.

Poor you Tamra I hope you feel better soon. Food poisoning is no fun! Candra I say add salad to your meal and add more protein and stick to the three times a day thing. It prepares you for what is to come (band). Girl get your grub on because your body is holding on to the little you are feeding it now. I know I ate a lot of salad and broccoli. Ncole, I unked my journal, but plan on starting again. BTW is anyone having BM issues I find myself going every 5-6 days. Benefiber is not helping, suppository is not either. Help!

Candra, you can't beat Tina inwriting lol. But the good thing is that everyone writes words of substance and not gibberish :-)), so we are never bored.I was reading your meal, do u think you may need a few more calories? Are you doing salads? It's interesting the day before yesterday I ate a little more and I dropped weight, then I ate exactly as stage IV menu indicated and I gained! What's up with that.The body is weird indeed.

I can walk you through it quickly if u have moment?

Candra you are too funny asking Donna for her siggy. Get your up. It's really easy!

Hi Nicole, I won't be able attend you party unfortunately. I will be hosting a family meeting in my house.

Hi Jessika! nice to have you onboard!

Donna you are funny! thanks for the compliment. We will really have to meet one day soon. When is the next luncheon folks? Nicole I wish Mike the best and hope he gets the job. Candra your meal plan is superb you go girl, you keep it up like that you won't need the band. Tina how is it going girlfriend? Chris you are doing great girl I wish I had the energy that you and Riley exert daily. Do you take a break?lol. You go!! Candi, we miss you too! HEY LADIES Friday lunch works for me:-)

Poor Tina, we are all over you!! That's called love :-). I know you will be back on track , we all have our moments.Dust off and move on. Like Chris said you are not going to gain 5lbs for that. This weekend mine was eating tones of fruit (watermelon to be exact), tiny pieces because it was so hot. right now my scale has not moved for two weeks now eerrrrhhhh! I hope after the fill it will start again.

Thanks Riley! Riley you work out like you're going for the Olympics and I wish I had your energy darling! You look wonderful in your pic. Tina sorry about the budget cuts at work. Ok, so I was looking at you meal plan for the day. Are we allowed to eat Bagels? I would think that it is pretty high in carbs! Please check your protein bar for carb content. I made the mistake of indulging in protein bars and I paid for it big time. Please don't be offended,this is just a sisterly check :-).

Thanks Tamra, you too have a wonderful Tuesday! I hope you hear from your doc real soon.

Tina- when we get to goal we will still be supporting each other.When we fall we alwas know that we can get up and dust off with the help of each other. I think we're making lifetime friendships here and that's he beauty of it.

Will power at its best! I snacked for the second time tonight and I feel like crap. I think I was more thirsty than hungry. well we'll see what the scale says. Chris you are doing so well. I am proud of you. :tongue2:

Jes I hope all is well with our hubby. Men do have that "of the hook" talent :-). we are trying to be good lol.

Thanks Riley we learn from the best (you). You set a good tone for us and we seem to be doing ok :tongue2:

Thanks again candra, you are funny about the hubby! Girl at 5'3' you have some advantages that those of us who are tall don't have. Sort women tend to attract tall men LOL. You are beautiful indeed. I think after we all reach goal or even close to it we should get some pro pics.

Thanks Candra again, I need the motivation because I am truly struggling with seeing the difference and that's something that I will be talking to Dr.Park about next week.

Tina, my next fill is july 6th, i hope I get a fill. I heard not everyone gets a fill at the first visit. Dr. Park is a bit conservative , so we'll see what happens next monday:-).

Ok folks I managed to put some pics up on the public album. I need to get some old before pics to see the difference.

HI all, Everyone seems to be doing well after your fill. It's good to see the weight loss wave again. Chris congrats, girl you are working the exercise thing! Tina, you are doing good, hey I have these crackers that I buy from Trader Joes, They are Mutiseed with Soy sauce Rice crackers. 35pieces=110 calories. I take about 7-9 pieces which is approx.36 calories and only 7grams of carbs and it hits the spot for me for lunch ofcourse including my 1/4c protein.

Yes Tamra you do feel full, however your stomach may growl after surgery as if you've not eaten in days.

Thanks Riley , you are funny! I think my body has adjusted to the 1/4 cup for a while and probably needing to adjust. I've only cheated once and it hurt so bad that I refrained from temptations LOL. I called her earlier today.

OMG, you all look so good! I would have loved to be there. Next time. Well I can't wait to get my fill in two weeks, because my stomach is growling more and I have hit a major plateau. Any ideas as to how to break it? Chris, Riley, Nicole, Candra looking good Divas!!!
