I started to make jewellery for my dance group fundraiser. I am hooked. my beads are spread from one end on the table to the other. I make bracelets/ anklets for at least one hour every day. Financially we are doing very well with it and I an always trying different styles to foster my creatiavely.If I had more free time in the days, I would have no trouble filling it up with jewellery. Yasmina:clap2: Anyone know any good bead shops in Toronto. I will becoming down Dec1st

Best of luck and stay strong ! Yasmina

My firend took Zyban and did wonderful.She was able to quit. Her only problem was the routine she had. Aftet every meal she smoked, breaks at work, before bed. Her solution, red hot tamalies from the states. ( A red hot chewie candy ) She would eat five of these vile candy every time she wanted a smoke. (That is about 20 of those awful candy a day ! yuck )After about a month she no longer needed the candy to distract her. And no weight gain, she is one of those who can eat whatever and still wears a 7 pants! Y

When you are first banded and can only have clear liquids, ect for the first little while. I thimk that part will kill me ! Yasmina

It was $1.97.They had pink lemonade and sour apple. Is it a good way to get your Protein when you are on the restricted diet ? Yasmina

Yes , I am from Thunder Bay. It wes where they sell all the Protein powers , herbal tea, weight loss pills ect ! It sparked my interest. I thought if is was a good product, that I would buy it for Jan when I get banded. Yasmina

Great weight loss Cloe ! Glad to hear that you are doing so well ! It inspires all the rest of us who are waiting to be banded. Keep up the great work ! Yasmina

:help: I just came back from Walmart where I saw Protein Water. It said it had 20g of protein and 80calories for the 575ml bottle. It came in pink lemonade or sour apple. any thoughts on this product ? I don't get banded until Jan and looking for anything that will help me out . Yasmina

Well my weakness is Ben& Jerry's icecream. It is soooo good. I used to say that I am having Ben and Jerry over for dinner. No one knew that Ben and Jerry were the dinner. lol Yasmina:hungry:

Hi Lila, How was your fill apt? I was think about you on Monday wondering how you were doing. Yasmina

Always enjoy reading them Yasmina

Is the no liquid thing with meals; is that because it will flush your pouch ?

OMG You live by a Michaels ! If I was so lucky it would be like I died and went to heaven. I have to go to Deluth to find one. I love all their beads. I am addicted to making bracelets / necklaces. our fudge that we make is from chocolate and condensed milk, not sugar so it is very creamy. Yasmina

I have read that you should proteins first, then veg/fruits. Bread and pasta can cause problems because once chewed a lot ,they become gluey. Could you not sip small amounts of liquid with the bread ? What about spicy foods ? Yasmina

Stick with it, you have come so far. I am sure you will get where you want to be, It may just take a little longer. Yasmina

Hey Cloe, I do crafts too. Candles, lofa soap. body scrubs, bracelets, necklaces, Perogies, cabbage rolls, fudge, fleece blankets ect. I belong to a dance troupe that does lots of fundraising . Yasmina:omg:

Best wishes to you Nancy. I will not have my turn until January. Think of all the weight you will have lost by then ! Yasmina

Mandi Your job sounds sooo cool It sounds like you have been part of lots of great things ! It must be lots of fun !!! Yasmina

Thank you Yoda for you words of wisdom Yasmina
