I agree with everyone remove the disclaimer Mookie, my weight loss includes the 19 lbs pre-op.

Okay, it's gone.

Yoda...I think that's Woodgie. "Don't forget to clean your pipes!"

Mookie, 20lbs on Optifast is impressive! Especially cause you're a 'lightweight'!!

I ain't no lightweight!!! Take that back.

hate to break it to ya Mookie....you are, in fact, a "lightweight"!

I agree Mookie,

You are a light weight...accept it with pride. Glad you did so well on the Pre-op. It's a killer. 20 lbs loss is fantastic!

Moooooooookie! Come out, come out, wherever you are! You haven't posted (or emailed) in forever!

We miss your clever-osity!

Mandi you have done so well !

Any diet advice that has worked well for you ?

Hey guys, Mookie finally emailed me a little while ago. I think she's a little discouraged. I'm not gonna tell her story, I'll let her do that... hopefully when she gets her computer back up and running, and hopefully soon.

(Yasmina... diet advice? Hmm... I'm not good for that. I feel bad for those who've struggled alot with this, cause I've always had whatever I wanted (for the most part, chosing the healthier option usually, but not if I REALLY wanted the other, and providing I could even eat it)... but oviously just alot less. I wouldn't bother getting a big fat burger anymore, cause it would just be a huge waste of money for a couple bites. Maybe my cheapness, and distaste for how most foods end up once thoroughly chewed turn out, has helped me all this time.)

Now, that said... I'm having problems now. I should probably smarten up and hanker down with a smart diet. :|
