Gone for Good Club -- September 2006



Recommended Posts

Great tat, Telly. You look super svelte.

Welcome to all the joiners and I look forward to getting to know you.

LaMadame...Your story is heart wrenching and you should be proud of all the positive steps you've taken for yourself. I agree with everyone. Four lbs since November isn't a lot but I feel your panic. So this is the place to re-apply yourself, set your goals and get it done. Congrats on making the step.

Stitchy...thanks for the suggestion of putting the shake in a mug at the bar b que. I'll do it. That way...who has to know?

I'm a bit more concerned about the formal sit down fancy do we're going to tomorrow night. La de dah, at the country club. I'm seriously thinking of excusing myself from the sit down dinner portion and running up to the house and heating up some Soup and then coming back later. Do you think that would be incredibly rude?

Later, gators.

Hey thanks guys. Much appreciated.

Myself, Tricia, Heathergurl, EmileeKaye, PhotoNut and a few others I think are all almost wearing the same pants size. How cool is that?

Cool yes Telly, but how can a 224.6 lb gal fit into a size 12 jeans comfortably? I still don't get it... my tag must be wrong on my jeans :)

Or maybe I have a lot of muscle??? HA!

Nahh, you are waay taller and some people have more upper body than lower. Every make of body is different. Recently, my sister weighed less than I did and is in a bigger pant size. I weigh less than she does now.

I'm only 5ft 3, if at that. I think I'm shrinking. But, if you think about it, I am in a size 12's and I do wear 14's but they are kinda loose. Someone at 5ft 6 weighing about 20lbs more than I and fitting into the same jeans makes perfect sense.

Nope Paul, I don't think your booty would look as good as mine in them.

I will find some excuse to take new pictures this weekend... let's all try that. New pics for September!

I'm thinking I'm due a new "After" picture. I'll see if I can persuade the wife to take one.

Even though I feel pretty darn fat this morning.

Heathergurl, no excuse needed. Snap away, everyday if you want to.

I take pics every 2 days for no real reason. :)

I agree dawg...

New avatar too... I doubt you still look the same as when that pic was taken.

Correct, I got uglier.

I think you need to take care of yourself. You need to eat - such as it is. You could run home for that. Or, if you don't want to go home, put some Soup in a thermos and leave it in your car. You might have to do a lot of 'splainin' if you sat at the table not eating. If anyone asks later you can come up with something plausible. Forgot something I needed, etc. Probably no one will notice. Maybe you can join the dinner after the entree has been served and just ask for a drink instead. Got no appetite. Couldn't eat a thing. This is workable. As my mom used to say, "Just put on your thinking cap!"

Here's a true sample:

B - Isopure shake (50g of protein)

S - Grapes (2-3oz)

L - 1/2 can of Albacore tuna, lots of spinich greens, romaine lettuce, red onions, sprinkle american cheese, tomatoes, cucumbers, 5 croutons and Mikoto ginger dressing

S-1/2 of Isopure drink

D - Sometimes the other half of the salad, at other times, grilled chicken breast, steamed broccoli with velveta cheese melted on it (1 slice)

S-Light Dannon Yogurt drink

1-gallon or more of Water daily

Also too, dinner life has really changed in my home. I prepare my daily meals early in the morning and will eat according to plan throughout the day. I will, however make my family a separate meal for dinner, such as pork chops, mac n cheese, cooked veggies. They will never eat what I make for me therefore, I have to take care of them differently.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
