Okay, today I decided why not invest in a personal trainer. I have spent thousands already doing this but I always get discouraged and quit because while I was exercising regularly, I never changed the way I eat so the results were always minimal if any. This time, hopefully will be different. I signed up for twice a week workouts. This first one was a doozy..I was pouring sweat (which is a good sign). I will continue to swim on the weekends because I adore swimming, I am a FISH.

Hi, used to live in Tarzana, now live in Oxnard which is Ventura, CA. Hit me up if you live near me, I'm on AOL messenger alyshabrooke

i had them really bad but i lost 10 lbs and it got better. also, buy some birkenstocks (sp?) you can find good deals on them on eBay. They have a natural arch and they yelp soooo much. theyt have some now that are cute and not so ugly.

Thanks Leila, VERY helpful!

Okay, to combat hunger (maybe just head hunger) I have begun a serious love affair with BBQ Sunflower seeds (with shells). How bad are these for me? Are these going to add serious calories? Anyone know?

*bump*>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Yup me too Randi - I'm really battling feeling hunger vs head hunger. I'm eating too many sunflower seeds.

LOL New Sho - I didn't even think of that Kirk Franklin and Too $hort on same list... yeah, well....how do I explain that? Naughty AND Nice?

Ooohhh, I feel soooo good. I can exercise now! I have been swimming, doing cardio and taking my dogs for long walks for the last 3 days. Hubby is so loving and sweet, sees the effort I'm making and brought me home flowers today!

No, I need to though. My weigh hasn't changed in over a week and I've been eating out. No restriction right now but first fill on the 26th.

Naw, I didn't like the way the airbrush tan looked on my feet and other areas and started fading away blotchily after 3 days. Still on my pursuit for new biz.

Hi all, I'm doing great, have 75% of my appetite back. Addicted to sunflower seeds. Haven't started exercising yet but today my US doctor (Dr. Billy in Ventura, CA) gave me the greenlight to exercise, do sit ups, swim, everything! He will give me my 1st fill on the 26th - said he is pretty conservative on fills but I will only be 4 weeks post op so THANK GOD I can get one at all!

I'm testing everything. I've ate pizza (thin crust), pasta, candy, nothing is safe. I'm like why am I doing this!!!! I can't wait until a fill. I am drinking a TON of water though. </according>

Yes, I do! On my breasts, stomach and legs, all the time now. I thought I was going crazy!

Thanks! I have been beating myself up and I didn't look at it that way. It just feels like so much. My scale has went back up two pounds too....When can I start exercising. I will be 2 weeks post op on Monday?

Okay, I'm eating everything in sight. My restriction is way less then it was a few days ago. I ate 5 STRING CHEESES TODAY!

me too julie, i had such restriction the first week or so. The last few days I have been able to eat much more, certainly not as much pre-band but definitely more then I th ought I would. Today I had 1 cup of soup. 5 Light STring Cheeses, 6 Garlic stuff olives and one popsicle and one protein shake! Geez, I am soo mad at myself!

Good luck Jessica, I'm so excited for you!

I have lost 10 lbs in seven days. I am so happy. I'm starting a new business to. Mobile airbrush sunless tanning, like Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Simpson and Paris all do. Beginning stages, this looks like fun!

I've lost 10 lbs as of tonight! I am obsessed with the scale, I need to stop, but this is soo fun!
