I definitely have mental hunger which to me is half the battle! I think it is a bad habit to compensate for boredom. I cannot just sit on the couch and do nothing.

ladydi way to go on the NSV! It does feel great when you make it to a size you haven't been in awhile. My thoughts are with you for your surgery!

A question to you all, do we ever get rid of "mental" hunger? I find there are still times when I think that I'm hungry but instead of reaching for food I now reach for Water or take a walk. I think that it is fill time for me so I'm going to go make the call.

Ya'll take care!

I have mental hunger, but not as badly as I would have expected. I notice it most when I am PMS'ing. (not surprisingly). I haven't updated my ticker yet, but I finally broke through the 50 lb mark --- I think I have only lost a pound or two this entire month! I guess I need to get moving.

Hello all! I've gone missing for a while and it's great to see the thread still alive and kicking. I've had a really hectic work schedule in recent times, and I think I needed a break form the board. I was getting so frustrated at my sloooooow pace of losing, (Pelo -- you have nothing to worry about!!) that I felt I needed to be thinking about something else.

Anyway, I'm over myself and back. Has anybody heard anything from Faybie lately?

Don't be discouraged Jo Ann. Not that you haven't heard this a million times, but we all lose at different rates. We're here for support, don't disappear.

Faybie....check in girl!

Robin, you look awesome!!!

I looked at my "before" pic for the first time since my surgery and almost passed out! YIKES! I had no idea I looked like that! I'll post them after I get back from my cousin's baby shower Sunday. We'll be taking pictures, I'm sure!
