Getting Ready for Spring Bootcamp

[okiefamily 0]

Oh Ok, I thought you were trying to get me pumped up to do something...lol...The pizza night is biweekly...Its every other Thursday night before payday...He would live on pizza if I let him...He has drank the diet caffine free dr peppers for the last few years...We had problems with him sleeping at night when he did drink the regular ones so his dr had us switch over...I have tried putting him on diet, but it is just so hard to do that to a kid...I went for about a month just serving him a meat and vegetable and he always asked "wheres the 3rd thing?"...He always called the startchy stuff like potatoes and mac & cheese the 3rd things..lol...He thought his world had come to an end when he didnt have them on his plate...I blame myself for it due to not teaching him the proper way to eat when he was younger, we could have prevented all of this and maybe I wouldnt have gained all my weight either...But such is life, its all a learning experience...I am just thankful that he is just borderline and that it can probably be taken care of just by his diet instead of injections...Well, I guess I dont know all of that for sure yet, but that is what I am guessing...Will learn more at the dr today

This probably just worked because my child is weird...(in a great way) but we (really she) got rid of the soda like this: She went to the dentist and the dentist told her that soda is like acid and rots her teeth, he even gave her a list of soda and how much acid they have in them. She has not touched a soda since except for 1 time at the movies and she chose sprite because it is less acidic than the others. I don't know if info like that would help him but maybe.. Now if I can just get her to kick her chicken nugget habit.

He is 11...I was in shock today when this endocronologist told him that he could drink his caffine free diet dr pepper all day if he wanted to and that it wouldnt hurt him at all...I was thinking that that just wasnt the best advise to give to a kid cuz I had been trying so hard lately to get him to drink more Water instead...Hes going to think now that "mom is just crazy and dont know what shes talking about" lol

Turner24,

When in a pinch, walk in place for 20 minutes or so. It will get your heartrate up and at it.

Just a thought.

Tann my weigh ins are on Tuesdays so I will just post last Tuesdays numbers. So I will always be a week behind but that is ok. You are doing such an awesome job on your weight lost. Keep your focus and Welcome Aboard.

Avilla I’m glad you saw the doctor and at least you got somewhere to start with your son so he can control it with diet. Does your insurance company have a nutritionist in their network.

Oakiefamily you are more then welcome, anytime.

Turner24 ok with love……Turner moving your body is what is going to burn those nasty little calories to get your body in the shape that you want it to be in come Spring.

Turner24 that sounds like an excuse PLEASE READ THE FOLLIOWNG

NO EXCUSES

Excuses are tools of the incompetent, building bridges to nowhere and monuments of nothing and those who use them seldomly amount to anything.

Therefore I will not give anymore excuses!!!

Julestwu GREAT ADVICE….DID EVERYONE HEAR WHAT SHE SAID

When in a pinch, walk in place for 20 minutes or so. It will get your heart rate up and at it.

Yes, I did find out that there were some in my network and I am working on it...I am also thinking about going ahead and coughing up the money for the one in the office with his specialist since they work so close together it might be better for him so they can get together about him if they have to...Its just the first appointment that is so much money after that its only 5 dollars over what his copay would have been anywhere else...And I even found out that they have a payment plan for that first visit so that will work too...I have been thinking about it since yesterday and I just want whats best for him, and at this point I am thinking its with the more expensive choice (dang it)...Thank you so much for asking

Welcome to the land of band, happy to be a loser. Get plenty of rest and Water. See ya around the boards.

Just checking in....I'm doing a meat and egg diet today along with the water and excerise. I weighed in this morning at 297, only lost 1 pound for the whole week, oh well at least it's not a gain. I hope to weigh 295 by 1-31-07 we'll see.....:heh:

Way to go on the 1 pound...That is actually good and what is expected with the band...My dr said to expect about 1-2 lbs a week for a normal loss...I know that we all hope and pray for more, but your doing good!!So Yipee for you!:clap2:

[avilla 1]

Ok, todays check in (remember it is the weekend):

2 scrambled eggs, 4 small sausage links (breakfast)

1 cup of salad with shredded cheese and ranch dressing with a spoon of tuna salad on the side (lunch)

small hamburger meat patty and green Beans (dinner)

80 ounces of Water based fluids (so far)

30 minutes on the gazelle and the forbidden laundry

I think that I did pretty good considering its the weekend!!
