Getting Ready for Spring Bootcamp

[tann 2]

Hi Avilla..... glad to hear from you:biggrin1: Regarding the m/e you have to do what is best for you. I am staying away from red meat which they say causes colon cancer. Have you lost anymore weight yet Avilla? Chix, fish & lamb is OK for right now, from the latest FDA reports, but that is subject to change:heh: This is day 4 for me on the m/e this week and I've lost 3lbs so far.

DENISE.....I got sick last nite with the induc flu, I threw up about 3 times:cry , but I'm feeling great now. That was truly amazing that you sat thru a homemade pizza dinner:faint: :hungry: I'm still not hungry this morning even tho I really didn't eat anything yesterday. I think you would've been OK just eating the topping off the pizza, but regardless you did very good.

Avilla--look at that ticker! I hadn't noticed that until now! Way to go!!:cheer2:

I forgot to post yesterday's menu. Here it is:

B-Hard boiled egg

L-Grilled chicken breast

D-Nothing; wasn't hungry.

Sounds familiar, huh? :guess

Tonight is family night at church which is a carry-in meal. That will certainly be a test. Often times there isn't just a meat like I would be eating so I sure hope there is. If not, maybe I will be blessed and not be hungry!

Thank you for noticing my ticker..hehe...It just inches up when it feels like it then it takes a break for a while...I am almost to 70 lbs, I am so excited....That will put me at 5.5 lbs so far for this month...I will take it as it comes...I am going in Friday for a fill and it will help me a little bit more...

Tann, I dont want you to take that as being anything negative from me about the m/e diet, I just wanted to report what she was saying...I am still all for it and am planning on starting on it on Monday with yall, but probably just a few changes...It sounds wonderful as long as that weight keeps coming off...I figure I can just take plenty of stuff to keep me regular while I am on it and I will be fine

[tann 2]

Oh no, Avilla I didn't take it as being negative. My doctor gets lip from his patients too, about the Protein diet. He is now starting letting us have some veggies with the meat (I was doing that anyways:kiss ) I feel like each of us are different and we have to work the diet which is best for us.

Oh yeah AVILLA congrats on your pounds lost, you are almost at 70lbs LOST:clap2:

Turner--Hey!:hug: We've been missing you. I am sorry things have been rough lately. I know you've been going through so much. Are things getting any better yet?

[tann 2]

Hi Turner, glad to see ya:clap2: Your menu looks good, you will surely lose some pounds with that.:biggrin1:

[avilla 1]

Thanks to all...I am working on it...I am still at 69.5 this morning but tomorrow morning I go in for a fill and I will get over that little hump...I was just thinking this morning about how funny it is that we can lose so much and look at it as being so little...Like when I was at 25 lbs I admired and wanted to be at 50 cuz 25 just wasnt that much...Then I get to 50 and i want to be at 75 cuz 50 just isnt that much...Its like the more that I lose the further from reality I get from actually seeing what I have really lost...Like yesterday someone asked me how much weight I have lost and I would reply "JUST 69.5 lbs"...Now this time last year I would have been exstatic to yell that number from the roof top for all to hear but now that I am there it just seems like another number to me...Does anyone understand what I am going thru??

[niecyrenee 2]

:mmph:ABSOLUTELY!!! I battle the same thing Avilla.:pout: I tend to look at how much more I have to lose then what I have done and I get that attitude. I always think if I would have done this or that my number would be bigger.:frusty: We are our own worst enemies! Don't kid yourself, 69.5 is amazing! Just think where you were a year ago. That helps put it into prospective for me.

My menu for yesterday is:

B-Hard boiled egg (WOOHOO!! The excitement!)

L-Meatloaf

D-Little sloopy joe meat w/o the bun, a couple small weiners and a deviled egg.

My eating yesterday wasn't the best and my scale reflected so. :fear: I was only down .4. There I go again, only down. It's better then up. I am hoping for those last 2 lbs. to sneak off today. If they don't, I will do m/e tomorrow as well and fight them to leave!:boxing:

[avilla 1]

You worded it alot better than I did....You are just doing so wonderful...You and Tann just keep moving along and leaving me behind...lol...Oh well, atleast mine is coming off a little at a time...I might even make it to 80-85 lbs before my 1st year is up...I will be cool with that...lol

[tann 2]

Good morning ladies:biggrin1: Today is a great day, first of all I am off from work:heh: Went to the dr's today and I'm down 15lbs from the last time I was there last month:D I've been doing a lil window shopping lately to find a Mother's day suit. And I'm getting in 18's for the tops and 20-22 for the bottoms, it is sooo hard to believe that I don't wear a sz 34-36 anymore:eek: That's a Nsv.

B: sf flavored water

L: tuna salad

D: egg salad:kiss

[niecyrenee 2]

Tann--:peace:Congrats on the 15 lbs. for the month!! And for the clothes...that is awesome!!:woot:I'd be dancing :dance:through the aisles yelling for everyone to check me out! :humble:And they will be cause not only will your confidence in yourself make everyone envious but the guys stand up and take notice when a gorgeous lady walks by! :heh:

[tann 2]

Thank you DENISE, life really is getting sweeter each day for me.

[niecyrenee 2]

Good morning! I wanted to make a quick post before I leave to go spend the day with my mom.

Yesterday's menu:

B - Hard boiled egg

L - Grilled chicken Breast (There's a horrible pattern going when it comes to my menu. No wonder I get bored. :nervous )

D - Taco

By last night I was so tired of just meat that when dh said he would like tacos for supper, I caved. I must of not done too bad because this morning I was down 1 lb! Only one to go! :clap2: I hope everyone's Friday is wonderful!
