Silly Penni, you can eat a whole serving of Cheetos! I'm certainly not going to eat one M n' M and call that fair. And Rebecca, a one pound chocolate bar? Isn't that rather selfish? Can I have half?

Of all things, I just binged on radishes. I already finished my lunch, but there were three fat radishes left, so I ate them. Sure, it's only a veggie, but it's pressing my lil pouchy. I hate my compulsive nature.

Wow I need this too..Im at a plateau or it could be just all the damn halloween candy in this friggin house :rolleyes .. Sweets & chocolate have not been nice to me this week. I do not even want to limit myself to one cuz that is what got me into this mess..so I'm going to cut it cold turkey ..one a day for the last week has creaped up on me. I have lost a measely 3/4 of a friggin lb in 2 weeks. I told my kids after they go trick or treating the candy is in the garbage or they better hide it in such a good place that they wont even remember where they put it. Im all in for this challenge in a big time way!!!

I think I gotta sic you guys on Erin. She just came in here to offer me Pringles, as she stuffed them in her mouth. What part of this doesn't she understand? I'm going to have the kids make a DO NOT FEED THE ANIMALS sign for my door.

Hi, my name is Nora... I'm a junk foodaholic. Yesterday I had to take all the halloween candy and hide them in the trunk of my husbands car. Then just to be on the safe side, I hide my key to his car outside of the house. Even then I almost went out in my nightgown to get a kit-kat, alright I was going to get the whole bag of kit-kats, thankfully it was to cold for me, or my hubby would have found me at 2am buried under a pile of candy wrappers in a suger-coma... Maybe If I just bring in one kit kat????

Sign me up for this challenge! If I could only avoid the goodies, I'd be so much more ahead in my goals. If it's around, I'm gonna eat it! I have been eating oatmeal raisin Cookies. They DO have plenty of Fiber, ya know.

Great timing Lisa! I don't know what's happened to me but I have been eating crap like it's goin' out of style. The weird thing is, I never used to be a sweet eater...I used to eat rice and Pasta...bread...you know the drill. Now that I can't eat that stuff- I've turned to candy and Cookies...and I don't even like candy or cookies! I'm stuffing my feelings and need to get a handle on it. Hold on- I'm going into the kitchen to throw it all away.

There. I'm in on the challenge. What's everyone's prize for being successful? You all know I love prizes...mine is this to-die-for soft pink winter scarf I saw at Target the other day and just couldn't see buying. Now I'm going to earn it!!!

So- here's my very public goal...

I will refrain from eating more than one treat a day for one week. Then I get the scarf. Ha.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
