IS that how it works here? I thought I was using it like a drug addiction, but your theory sounds much better and more true.

(((WHITE))) I am so sorry hun. I am glad you have taken the first step to a healthier you. It will be a hard road but I think you can do it. Hs-- I think you are overwhelmed and need some help as well. I don't think anyone here will give you permission to purge. I apprecaite the desperate situation you are in. I think you need to talk to a councelor on your own. I wish you both the best of luck, and wish good things for both of you! :wink2:

WHY? Do I hate myself so much?
I am so sorry you are having trouble. You may want to get a councelor to help you. When we get the surgery we think that our mind will change like the band forces our stomach to, but that is not the case. Sometimes we need help with that! I don't think you hate yourself, I think you haven't dealt with the real reason why you over eat. It was something VERY hard for me to come to terms with and I had to get help. It is ok to ask for help. I think you are really taking the first step by acknowlaging to yourself (and us) that you have a problem. Seek a support group or a therapist to help you. You don't have to do it on your own! Good luck, and hugs to you! :wink2:

What to do when you can't sleep?
Well I finallly got a tiny bit of sleep today since I posted but I can tell you it is the weirdest place ever I HAVE FALLEN ASLEEP. I went in to the ladies room, and there was a line. So I sat on the couch in there.....at 11:30 or so....I just woke up in the ladies room...about 1 pm.... I feel like a complete idiot to fall asleep in a rest room. My face is all jacked up, my sunglasses fell down and I smooshed them on my face....it is now all red....I LOOK LIKE A FREAK. But the good news at least I slept a bit... What do you think the women that went in there thought? I was a curled up in the fetal position....lol....

Yesterday I woke up.....
Michele Congratulations to you! You are going to be very sucessful with the band! You have taken the first steps in your journey, congrats to you! Keep up the great work, and many blessings! :wink2:

What to do when you can't sleep?
WOW! I am glad to hear I am not alone but it doesn't sound like any of you have much relief. I am becoming a real bitch during the day, to the point I can't stand myself. Right now I haven't slept a wink since Tuesday night, and that was only 2 hours. I am going to make an appoitment, I can not live like this..ugh...

What is up with me??? HELP!
April Good lord dear, where do I start? :thumbup: First what are you doing for exercise? That is KEY to getting off a platue. How many calories are you getting in? Do you track them? The burping sounds like your bodies way of telling you it is unhappy, does it do it with everything you eat or drink? I do get yucky sounds sometimes, but not all of the time.

What to do when you can't sleep?
Hey ya'all I need some serious help. I am having trouble sleeping and I mean SERIOUS trouble. It has been 4-5 weeks since I have slept a night through. I have been taking sleeping pills to even go to sleep. My mind is constantly racing, I feel like I never can turn it off. What do you do when you can't sleep? Anyone got any good help, I am ready to die here. I am spending my days in a zombie mode, I am getting sick because of lack of sleep and now I am getting dizzy spells. HELP! :thumbup:

I did it! I DID IT! I did it!!
Yes ma'am I did 1.5 hours a day of cardio. Tried to kill myself maybe, but it worked. I broke it up on the bike, treadmill and stepper. When I was doing 2 shakes a day I was doing them with 1 meal and 2 snacks. I now do 1 shake a day. Snacks for me are a protien bar broke up through out the day or string cheese--my fave food. Weight is a number, find what is right for you and makes you happy. I am considered overweight by standards really and I am 6'0". I don't believe in the numbers that MetLife goes by which is what standards are set by. We are women with curves for god sake...lol.. I will PM you my Herbalife guy, Joe. I don't sell it. He can help you out, he ships.
