I confess that I don't know what you mean when you say that you "slimed"...what is that? Maybe I've done it!

People refer to sliming as that stuck feeling you get in your chest, and then saliva kind of builds up in your throat- hence the 'slime' lol it's a bit nasty. It happens to me if I eat too fast or don't chew enough. I LOVE deli turkey, and eat it a lot for lunch but that is one food that pretty much always makes me slime :(

thanks for clearing that up for me! ;)

I confess that I do eat too fast sometimes.

I confess that the worst feeling I've had since surgery is after eating a sweet potato cooked in our fireplace....not sure if it was the actual sweet potato, the butter, or eating too fast that made me miserable.....felt like I was choking for about 45 minutes.

i confess that i am toying with my goal and am thinking of leaving onederland just for fun lol (what is below onderland?)

i confess that i have a pile of old cloths that is now taller than me....what am i saving them for?

i confess that i have been enjoying wine and thought it was the cause of a long stall...but the scale is now moving again

i confess that stalls suck lol even though i know they are normal

i confess that i wish that i didn't feel lousy after eating. even though i eat on plan, slowly, blah blah, i always feel kind of yucky after food and i hate that

i confess that dh is likely to freak when he gets the credit card bill this month :) I must also confess that I've been buying new cloths like crazy heh heh

i confess that i wish my new cloths fit longer....but thats twisted cuz then id be in a stall which i already confessed i don't enjoy lol

I was sleeved on the 10th and...

1. I kick myself for not waiting until after the holiday

2. I am having some major mood swings that i think are tied to my lack of crab legs and red lobster

3. I think my marriage will change for the worse because of this surgery.

4. I look at my chest to see if they are getting smaller -i swear that they are smaller:(

5. I am scared to go to work and hear someone say -did they cancel the surgery cause you look the same

Why do you feel your marriage will change for the worse? I have seen nothing but gains in my marriage as i have let go of so much bitterness and anti social tendencies. I hope everything works out for you.

Ok, I'm in. Here comes a smoking confession...

I confess that I smoked on the way to the hospital morning of surgery and quit for the next 48 hours.

I also confess that my surgeon requires a pre-op urine nicotine test and my teenage daughter passed!

I love to smoke and have no plans to quit!

BTW, I am fully aware of the risks involved in case anyone feels the need to remind me :)

There are so many problems in my marriage and i put up with a lot because of how i look ---note the profile pic. I allowed my weight to be an excuse for settling for someone to mistreat me.

I confess

1. My daughter and I baked today and I tasted, cookie dough, marshmallow fluff, fudge and molasses cookie. Not a lot just a pinch

2. That I eat way too fast.

3. I feel yucky after I eat, probably because of #2

4. I wish I was losing faster.

5. That 1/4 cup of mushie food is not much! Lol

I confess:

Fudge and xmas Cookies go down just fine :(

I have yet to get in all my prot, Water, Vitamins

I have yet to exercise seriously other than dog walks

I was sick for two days after eating McDonalds bfast burrito and then a donut

I'm bummed my clothes still fit, albeit baggy

I'm super crabby to my husband ..he's on my last nerve!! I think it's because i cant go get something to eat to stifle those feelings...and this has me a bit worried

I cannot wait for summer to have people's jaws drop when they see me again. No one knows i had surgery.

I feel let down when people dont notice my wt loss

I wish i could stay on liquids rather than figuring out & stressing about real food

I am glad that you are aware of this. I was heavy my whole life and didn't date until I was 24. At that point, I got it in my head that I could be happy alone (not married, not in a relationship) and as soon as I started thinking that way, I met my husband who has loved me skinnier and loves me now heavier and doesn't care how I look. You definitely deserve to have someone who loves you regardless of how you look. But, remember, you have to love "yourself" first. Sounds dorky, but it's true.

I think you look cute in your profile pic very cute and stylish.

thank you but i was a whole lot smaller and the more that my weight went up and down the lower my self esteem went.

I confess I saw a picture of an American burger creation with about 10 patties, 50 slices of bacon, and same again of cheese - and all I could think of was how much I wanted to sink my teeth into it's greasy goodness. A serious case of eyes too big for stomach! :) Lol And I know better than to even ATTEMPT

I only have one confession. I've grazed a lot the past few days and even had take out the other night (nothing bad just chicken and broccoli) but the sodium must have been HIGH because it said I gained 2lbs today. In 2 days. I know it's water weight but UGH that pissed me off a lot. And I've fallen victim to the holidays also with running around, shopping, tastes of things that I shouldn't have. I know a bite of a cookie didn't cause me to gain 2lbs BUT I feel like that was the universe saying okay STOP NOW! Kind of cant wait for the holidays to be over!!
