Have you been picking in my fridge, Ezma? :biggrin:

Okay I have developed a coldstone addiction, and if they aren't open then I have discoverd the "Whirled Peace" from Ben and Jerry's is better than a shot of vodka for knocking out a bad day. OH and Cookies and cream taste really good for a combo chocolate craving/icecream craving.

I make a promise to only eat icecream once a week, and not the whole pint once a week, but a SERVING of icecream once a week.

Now stay away from the pickles, I am going to eat them, they don't have calories.

Funny!!!! I think. I have a serious Coldstone addiction. Founder's Favorite in the Gotta have it size to be exact. I gave it up:confused_smile:, well cut back when I was doing weight watchers, and was amazed at how many points it added up to be. So I'll have it about twice a month in the like it size. Plus it's an expensive addiction. I think drugs would probably be cheaper.:biggrin:

I was very bad today. My bf and I had a fight so all I could think about was ice cream. I had a blizzard earlier and just now I had a double scoop at Baskin and Robbins. I basically have had no good food today just junk.

I feel for you Denise. Why is it that I can't get myself to exercise or something when I'm stressed or depressed? Why does it have to be straight for the Desserts? Hope things are better now with bf. Maybe you could beat him instead of eating - it would get rid of the stress and burn some calories. Think he'd agree to it?

Wanted to pat myself on the back - and get some pats from you too! lol I haven't had any ice cream in 5 days (partly because I ran out of my favorite kind, and haven't given in to buying more, and partly because I've been working hard on staying away from it. It really helps that the only DQ in my town has closed for the winter. Thanks for listening to me gloat - this is a huge goal for me.

Congrats sk!!!! That's really great. I'm still having a hard time with it but hopefully today is the start of the end of the carb cravings.

Right now I would love to take a 2 by 4 and smack him with it.

I would have exercised but the fight we had was pretty late at night

and I hardly slept at all because I was so upset. I was too worn out

to go to the gym, which is just not like me.

How's everyone doing? I'm doing okay. I'm not sure if I get to count last night as being good or not. I started South Beach and you get a dessert on it. There's not a lot of choices so I ended up having a Breyers Carb Smart Fudge Bar. It wasn't ice cream and I never really liked popsicles or fudgesicles so it's not my addiction but it was ice cream like in substance.

Ezma - It was NOT ice cream; that's the main thing.

SK - Good for you! Consider yourself patted on the back.

Denise - Men! Nothing else needs to be said!!!

Theninside - twice a month is do-able. Keep at it!

SM - Almost into the 150's- yeah!! And cookie free too. You are doing great!!

Update from Clinic visit - 2 1/2 hour train ride to the city; 35 minute walk to the clinic. 20 minutes IN the clinic...then same thing in reverse. So basically, no slippage, no problems, the nurse added 0.25 cc but basically it is just my body is fighting losing the weight after decades of yo-yo dieting. Persistance is the key...or so the clinic says....

Hey yaw!

I stayed away from Wally World this weekend. But I did eat out a lot this passed weekend. I had a piece of fried fish on Friday. Some Barbeque on Saturday ( what can I say I'm from Kansas City) and I had a Quiznos flatbread salad. Boy do I need restriction.

Great - now I'm humming "Kansas City"...

Pan fried or deep fried? I MUCH prefer pan fried - less fat too.

But yes, it does seem that you may need some restriction...

Hey Tapshoes,

I don't know exactly how they fried it all I know is the fish was light and yummy. It was orange roughy. I know I was born and raise in barbeque city. I love Gates barbeque. But yes I need restriction like yesterday. I hope you're doing fine.

I'm sorry tapshoes. I didn't think they would be cultural....well I guess they are. Since I first had them at a sushi restuarant.

I love sushi.

I am having roast beef for lunch. I'm excited since I had a handful of chips for Breakfast. I was hungry and they were free. Hopefully they don't ruin my day.

I am hungry can you tell. S t a r v i n g.

Tomorrow is weigh day...but I'm thinking of skipping it since I have some major PMS.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
