Welcome to the Gone for Good Club

The members of this "club" are like-minded people who want to challenge each other to keep working toward our goal of weight loss and keeping it off! We have no illusions of the band being a miracle cure, nor do we believe that we will achieve our goals without working for them. We understand that if we continue the lifestyle and eating habits that got us fat in the first place, we will not achieve our goals. We come together in order to strengthen our determination by sharing our dreams, our struggles, and our victories with one another.

We encourage everyone to get to know one another while sharing tips, support, struggles, and encouragement... and a kick in the rear when needed! *grin*

This is not a contest, there is no deadline, and everyone is a winner by being a "loser"!

Wednesdays are weigh-in days for those who wish to have us update your progress on this page. Please post a brief note on Wednesdays in the following format: C 265 (-42 lbs total, -3 this week).

Hi Everyone!

Still on the liquid diet high of fast weight loss! I'm not doing too bad and haven't wanted to kill anyone yet, I figured I'd be at that point long ago! Only one more week of liquids and on to mushies.

Chokes down tuna.

:confused:

I remember that first bite of mushies. I think I'll remember it forever.

It was a bite of cottage cheese, and I swear that was the best bite of food ever to cross my lips! You're doing great, Andy Liz! *hugs*

Chokes down tuna.

We need to add gills to your avatar!

I remember flying to vegas once stuck in the emergency row with a married couple and I told the guy "if this thing goes down, you're throwing that open and me and her are outta here!" hahaha. He said ok.

My first bite of mushies was a bean Soup with canadian bacon. It was sooooooooooooo good!

I'm having a hard time right now. I'm three weeks banded today but the anniversary of my mom dying is coming up quick and one of my best friends just found out yesterday that her mom has terminal cancer and it's just bringing it all back to me. I want to EAT EAT EAT! Though I can't eat much I am making very bad food choices. Yesterday my calorie intake was about 1900 instead of about 900. I feel like I'm going nuts. Too much anxiety.

Dawg, tell them you intend to lead by example. You will open the door, jump out, and yell back "FOLLOW ME". Any sane person won't be waiting for instructions.

Looks around

Ok I'm here *looks around* soo...uhhhhh...what's crackelackin?

Oh, great NSV - my wedding band and engagement ring no longer fits me. It falls off when I lower my hand. Also, I got in touch with a long lost buddy from myspace. I have a wedding to attend in Puerto Rico next month. I need to get down another 20lbs and I will.

I don't know what is crackalackin...

But my grandma used to make cracklins!

She'd trim the fat off the pork chops, and chop it into little pieces, then fry those up in a pan. She'd use the grease and the cracklins to flavor some nice greens, or greens and potatoes, or green Beans.

As a kid, we'd always try to steal and eat the cracklins before she used them all to cook, they were salty and crunchy... and I think large contributers to all the heart attacks in that family!

How's that for details?

.......................................................bad

Grandma's don't know any better. They are used to cooking the old fashioned way, before all of the diseases were outted.

Sure tasted good.

Damn, that lady could cook. Of course, it is another reason I was 371... damn Italian grandmas!:confused:

Sound like she was making Pork Grinds

You can buy "Pork Scratchins" in the UK bars. Identical in all respects to Paul's Grandma's Heart Stoppers.

Add beer and it's... well horribly unhealthy but it is salty and... crunchy.

:confused:

I know what's *clack* *clack* *clack* 'ing

Mornin' Miss Telly

*Clack* *clack* *clacks* back in to avoid getting ready for school.

School starts next week and I still havn't gone through any of our curriculum to form a homeschooling plan. You home school Telly...are you ready or have you already started! UGH - I am so unmotivated this year!

Ok, I'm feeling really guilty here so I'm going to *clack* *clack* *clack* my way up to shower and get dressed already!
