  1. I can't wait to start Insanity....

    This week is my lst week of Prep with Hip Hop Abs and I so love this DVD! but I'm so about Insanity starting the 15th :)

    I ordered Results and Recovery and hope I have that in time to use with Insanity and Shakeology!

    I'm also very excited about my Taste Party Saturday and I'll try to have one every week. I hope my friends and family show up! They'll be amazed at the benefits of Shakeology....

    okay well I gotta take a nap cos I feel slightyl drained...

  2. Well I hadn't planned on having to postpone my appointments this week, but after much consideration and financial issues, I really need to cancel my follow up with Dr. Linder and consults and reschedule for a better time... :) I'm not totally happy avout it, but I realley need to get my stuff together... bummer!


  3. I had an appointment with my GP Dr. Saab today. I told him I've been having back pain and skin rashes under my belly...

    He gave me a prescription for skin cream and documented the rash.

    He also gave me a perescription for muscle relaxer and pain medicine for the back problems and has referred me out to have physical therapy 3 times a week for three weeks...


  4. Get a part time job

    Write my letter to insurance

    January:

    Schedule consult with Dr. Karyotakis and Dr. Uyeda in Los Angeles (shoot for same day)

    Schedule appointment with Dr. Saab about my rash and back pain... ask him to refer me to chiropractor to see why I'm having balance problems.

    Follow up appointment with Dr. Liu and Dr. Linder

    Get letters from all Dr.'s and get insurance started and appointment set.


  5. Dr. Linder is absolutely WONDERFUL! My consult was fabulous and I feel totally comfortable with him being my PS!

    Showing my belly and lower pouch was kinda embaressing, but we're trying to get insurance to cover...

    without insurance it's $18,000.:sneaky:

    I need an extensive tt with no muscle tightening.

    so I have a lot of homework to do...

    I need documentation of my rashes and back pain and letters from Dr. Liu and a few other doctors.

    I'm so excited... I'm looking at $7,000 if insurance cooperates. I'm praying for God's favor :crying:


  6. I'm meeting Dr. Linder today. I'm so excited, my dad is driving... one question is why are we leaving so early? 8am? For a 1pm appointment when my appointment is in Beverly Hills not Utah LOL!

    I'm hoping to work the money thing out... I only have the 5k now... hopefully some in house payment plan or financing can be arranged.

    I'll keeep you updated :sneaky:


  7. In conjunction with several aspects I'm just bumbed this morning.... I reached 201 and was positive my next step would be down and then below 200... so why the crap am I 203?!

    I'm frustrated! I'm waiting for an auction win on ebay to pay and I am FLAT broke! :sneaky: Got bills to pay and my weight is not doin wha I want it to... so here I am today watchin Ultimate Fighter and just chillin out in my apartment... I feel a little retarted, cos here i am lounging on my couch watchin Spike and bloggin when I should be out enjoying life.... did I mention I've got my hoodie on... okay yep I need to let go of this depression!:sad:

    Now.. I have my consult with Dr. Linder on Monday and I am excited about that! I'm gonna explain to him what I'm looking for and let him know I am experiencing extreme back pain I believe due to the sagginess of not only my belly but my breasts. My lower back is giving me every day pain...(right now I have a heating pad on my lower back) I just wanna be happy and right now I'm not...:crying:


  8. I'm fighting the good fight cos on my lunch break I so wanted ONE TACO... then I said no, then I said, well I'm gonna move my car cos I've got these 3 inch heels on and I'm parked far away, it'll be dark after work... so I move my car and there's no close parking spots except by the AM & P.... no big, but I now want Munchos... I fought the impulse, only to get to my desk and count out nine dimes and two nickles... enough for a bag of Munchos... again I fought the temptation and reached for the snack size can of tuna in water in my desk... and now.... yes I'm still thinking of Munchos, but I'm settling for the tuna LOL:w00t:


  9. Today, I'm attempting to do protein nectar all day with water.... I'm still fluctuating and haven't dropped below 200 and it's frustrating.

    This may be a good thing, because I'm broke and protein is about all I have lol....

    So I'm gonna finish this cup on my desk and then have another for lunch and go out to my car and chill.....

    We'll see how this goes:unsure:


  10. I'm so CLOSE to Onederville I can taste it!!!!!

    I love my scale... I get on and it says 188 then jumps to 201.6~ Don't know exactly what that means, but I'm happy...

    And this is after a totally terrific FIGHT NIGHT *UFC*

    I think as I keep being social my esteem edges me on to keep workin the band and with this I'm losing:redface: I LOVE THIS!

    PRAISE THE LORD!!!

    Love,

    Desiree


  11. I hate to think what the cleaning people in my office think when emptying my garbage.... at times I find I have to PB (is that it) in my garbage can... as gross as this sounds, and I know it's TMI, I just have to get that "slime" up out of my throat....

    very little food comes up, just a bunch of nasty slime... I'm sure this is the lubricant trying to get the food all the way down to my stomache.

    So this morning I ate a boiled egg and a few slices of bacon in the car on my 45 minute drive to work... I was fine... then I got to my desk and started to feel it and had to PB.... or is it PM... whatever, I had to do it....

    So I'm down to 203! closer and Closer to breaking 200! Oh Praise the LORD!

    Gotta work now so latas :thumbup:

    Desi:rolleyes2:


  12. whooo I gotta catch up... been lazy with updates lately...

    On Oct 25th I was at 208.7

    Oct 27: 211

    Oct 29: 210.5 I had my adjustment this day. Following my adjustment I caught terrible flu symptoms and started my period... I just felt like YUCK! Stress also didn't help and I was dealing with money issues....

    Today is November 8th and I'm down to 204.1

    I haven't been eating a great deal... I'm a bit tight :confused: I need to find a way to stress less and stay on track.:confused:


  13. I haven't posted since May, but things have been crazy!! :thumbup: I got outta hand and went up to 218! :lol: I've been on track for the last two weeks and have dropped down to 210.5 per the scale this morning.:sneaky:

    I'm exercising and eating right.... absolutely no caffiene... I miss starbucks,:thumbup: but I wanna hit my mini goal first which is to break 200. :tt2: I'm due for an adjustment with Dr. Liu, but have to put it off cos I can't take the time off from work :sad: sux... but I'm doing well and I'm very happy I'm losing!!:tt1:


  14. Every since I hit 212, it seems as if losing has been such a pain in my tush....

    Still my goal is to hit 199 but WHEN!?

    I am beyond frustrated and a little lost:sad:

    I have a consult with DR. Linder on the 15th to put into works plans for having the loose skin removed and my boobs lifted, but truth be told, if I can't lose the 50 lbs Dr. Linder wanted me to back in OCTOBER:eek:....

    Fat Chance.... yeah I said it FAT:Dancing_unhappy:


  15. I'm starting over, or at least trying my hardest to undo the what I've done the past few months.

    What happend with Dave really effected me negatively and I'm not blaming my behavoirs on that, but they did make a difference.

    So I had my last fill of the year yesterday... I'm down a pound and so far today I've had some tomato soup, protein nectar and now I'm eating some refried beans with a bit of cheese... softies for at least two more days.. I'm going home and break out my hip hop abs dvd. Time to get my rear back in gear :)


  16. Glad I got my fill yesterday.:tongue2: Boy was I ready! As my wieght was dipping towrards 210 in the last few weeks it's been jumping up and when I had my fill yesterday I was 216.5:bored:.... This morning I am 214.4!:thumbup:

    I also found a way to tolerate the Protein Juice's Lemon Tea flavor:confused_smile:... I mixed it with lite lemon time... so much more tolerable.:smile2:

    Something scary did happen yesterday when I went in... I was told I had a $15,000 balance and how much was I putting towards it before my fill:eek:... I was like HUH? It was all a clerical error, and they had me as a cash client instead of insurance... whew!

    No strange side effects after the fill, but this morning I am taking in a serving of protien drink and I have a slight headache... other than that all is good:biggrin2:
