<p>I just want to say thank you to everyone for their support and encouragement...I know that I have been gone for a while...I have been training on the computer every night for an online order taking job to do part time from home to try to get things fixed at my house...Yipee, I finished it all and was hired...I should start working on or after the 23rd when my new phone line is added to the house...As for my husband, he just drives me crazy...The day he was suppose to quit and look for another job his boss shows up out of nowhere and acts like nothing is wrong...That was 2 bounced paychecks ago...He has been sticking it out at his job in hopes of things getting back to normal, so I just dont know whats going to happen day to day right now...But such is life, and I dont want to burden everyone with my troubles...</p> <p> </p> <p>As for the weight loss I got to 74 lbs then got stressed and gained about 3 back and am working on getting back to my 74 either tomorrow or Sunday...It been so hard to be good...I feel bad for being off the site for so long and I have really missed everyone...I hope that everyone is doing wonderful and shedding all that extra poundage that keeps us shackled to the ground...Before long we will all be light and flying high</p> <p> </p> <p>I can not stress enough of how proud I am of every single person on this board and how great everyone is doing...Yes, even the ones just starting because they made a great life changing choice to be healthier and thats a wonderful beginning...I love and pray for everyone on here often even if I dont get to log on as much as I use to and say it daily!!!!</p>

I am sooo proud of all of the loss!:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: My new fill is working well and I now need a kick in the butt to get back to exercise! I know that would kick start my loosing again.....but I hate it and I'm lazy:bored :kiss :notagree

Avilla- we love you! hang in there:girl_hug:

Tann- you should be sooooo proud of yourself!!!! :first:

Niceyrenee- I knew you would do it :horn: :banana :yo: Congrats!

Teresita- Good to hear from you! We have missed you terribly! :wave:

turner24

Wow Tann, is your hubby excited to have such a HOT wife!!!! Great pic, keep posting them they are inspirational.

Niecy, Congrats on Twoterville, that is AWESOME

Avilla, hang in there!

Turner, get your butt moving (JK, but it does feel good when you get the excersise thing going)

Teresita, good to see you again!

As for me, I just got back from my annual Girl Trip - 12 women for 5 days in a beach house with no kids and no husbands. Plenty of food and drink, I did okay, (except for the home made eggrolls that I should not have even tried to eat, but DANG that first couple of bites tasted so good before I got sick!!) but I did walk alot and even did Water Aerobics in the pool on the one sunny day we had. The result was just a 1 pound gain which I'm counting as a victory for me and the band because pre-band I could have and would have easily had a 5 to 10 pound gain because of over indulging.

Anyway, have a great week everyone.

Nice to hear from you Teresita we are missing ya.

I hope everyone had a great Mother's Day. Mine was very nice. I had a dinner party at my house and all the family came and brought covered dishes so we had lots of food:hungry: I didn't/couldn't eat much, just grazed a bit.

Thanks y'all for the compliments, I probably won't post anymore pics until I get down to 221 that will be 200lbs lost!! Then I'll post when I weigh 199!!

I did not lose ONE POUND last week:cry But THIS WEEK I will see a loss, even if it's only a pound:rolleyes

I know I said no more photos until I reach 200lbs lost, but PhotoNut did these for me, so I had to share with my peeps:heh:

2 months span....March'07 (274) and May'07 (247)......

Hey Tann,

Can I borrow your metabolism??? You are having such great success and I know you are working hard at it. Can you share the secret to your success????

When I grow in - I want to be just like Tann!! You look 20 years younger than your original photos.

Later,

AMY,LOL:heh: Other than the band no secret....I follow my doctor's diet MOST of the time, which is protein, non starchy veggies, I do protein shakes for dinner sometimes or a lite salad. I do some walking and lite weights. The Lord is Blessing me.

Tann--you are doing amazing!:clap2: I am in awe! Congrats girl; keep it up!

As for me, I have been a little down lately. I started back on m/e Sunday and it hasn't been good. Sunday and Monday I actually gained weight on m/e! :omg: Don't ask me how. I ate just like I'm supposed to; like I always do. It doesn't make sense to me. I did lose 1 lb. yesterday but I still have a few to lose to get back to my low. If I don't lose today I think I may take a break until next week and do lc. I'm confussed right now. Oh well, I have GOT to quit stressing about it. Why is it that I get depressed and not focus on how far I've have come and instead look at how far I have to go? UGH! :faint:

DENISE ......I did m/e for 3-4 days last week and I stayed at 247 for 7 days in a row:faint:then I went up to 248. That has never happened to me before on m/e I was like:help: what am I doing wrong. I carbed up some Sat & Sun and now I'm doing just lc and have lost 3lbs this week already, that's a pound a day:D I guess sometimes we need a break from m/e.

That's kinda what I've been thinking. I may need a break. I want so badly to make 290-295 by my next doctor's appt. of June 1st but who knows if I will reach that. I am seriously thinking about taking the rest of the week off. I think my body must need a break. Usually the first day or sometimes two after going off m/e puts on a pound or two but then when I get going on lc, it starts to come off again. Thanks for letting me know about your experience Tann because I was really wondering what in the heck I did wrong to have a gain.

I just wanted to stop in and say I lost 19lbs last month and now im 375!!!!!!!! and im having a GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!! I found out yesterday.

oh one more thing i found noodles that have no fat no carbs no sugar and are good for you with no calories! Shirataki MiracleNoodle Shop!

MourningFuneral--It's good to hear from you! I'm glad everything is going well. Congrats on the weightloss; that's fantastic! A little girl that will bring such joy to your life. I am so happy for you! Keep us posted on how everything is going. I can't wait to see pictures someday!
