Jonathan you can do this! Look at this goal as a writing deadline. Set up a outline/course of action and get it done. Damn the darn duck!! And anything with white truffles. It's appetizer size portions for you.

Strap that BodyBugg a little tighter, buckle down and get the work done!!!!

YOU CAN DO THIS!!

Tragically, the thing is, I'm pretty sure that I can do it WITH the duck breast!

I have to watch the weekends - if I'm not walking to and from work, I get much less exercise, which is the killer for me.

Amanda thanks for the pep talk. I use the daily plate to log my foods so I think that is pretty close. I have that I'd like to lose 2 pounds a week and for my weight I should be able to eat 1500 calories a day without exersize. I do know I hardly ever eat that much. I do walk about 3 times a week and I just uped the time and added a hill so maybe that will help. Not sure I'm up to jogging just yet fat would be flying around everywhere. I still have a bmi of 43.

I also just looked at my weight loss and even tho I did gain in the past month I lost 12 pounds so I guess I probably should have looked at that before I had my big pity party. It just really bugs me when I gain.

Rhonda you have to change your signature line.

"My goal is to be half the woman I am now" If that is true you want to be 111.5 lbs!

It should read "My goal is to be half the woman I was a year ago. Im more then half way there!!"

36_1_55.gif weighing every day or ever few days is depressing for me. I weigh on the scale at work once a week and then of course when I go for a fill or my PCP. I recored my weight the day before surgery on all 3 scales, so have my baseline, down. seems to be working for me..

I talkd with my DR about dropping my lipitor and avapro, for cholesterol and BP, but she said there are new studies out there that show other benfits of the medication for women. So she is only going to cut them back, but keep me on them. My cholesterol is great right now and my BP is holding strong at a great ##, Can't ask for any more.

That's great, Lynn! I think the health benefit of weight loss is SO much more important than the Improved Cuteness Factor!

Amanda! I went and looked at that site, and know that at any second I'm going to be busted for looking at photos of teens in lingerie! THANKS!

Hilarity aside, that's a cute idea, and looks like a great project - wtg, Amanda's niece! And who knew that knitting was all about the garter belt and stockings?

And before you complain about my "male metabolism", do you have any idea how much walking I have to do to burn 5300 calories??? Less than you, perhaps, but do you have any idea how much energy it takes to drag this huge carcass all that distance?

Well, I guess you do: 5300 calories! But, still!

I can't believe she's doing this- as a kid I just did lemon-aid stands.

Hi Everyone-

Haven't posted in a long while. I have had 2 fills, now up to 2.8cc and seem to be OK. Too much fill on 2nd try and had to go back to have some taken out. REally struggling late at night. Any ideas for coping? Take care and good luck!

Hi Everyone, I just finished catching up on the last week's worth of entries, you guy's have been busy out here....and seem to be doing great.

I'm enjoying my Florida vacation, been here since late Saturday evening and it's rained everyday. My food choices have not been perfect but could have been worse. I'm not getting in as much walking as I thought I'd be doing either and need to get a handle on it. We brought the dog with us this trip so when he wants to go do this thing outside I make the most of it and walk him a little further than he really needs to (SMILE).

It rained ALL day yesterday and the sun is shining now, so guess it's time to get dressed and go take the dog for a longer walk, I'll talk later, just wanted to check in.

Fenton, I forgot to post this yesterday, but I love Family Guy. I'm a bit ashamed to admit that, but I do love it - but my number 1 show is the Office. Any other fans?

Amanda, I've tried numerous types of socks and I still blister. I'm going to just not exercise until my feet heal. Maybe if all the blisters are given a chance to heal they won't come back! I'll just have to be extra careful with my food intake. Thanks for the suggestions though. It's great to be able to talk about all my issues with people that understand.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      April Surgery

My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
