Anyone that is banded notice, you get an instant sugar high after eating chocolate? ??

OH.. btw, my mil checked my sugar level with her lil thing.. yes i let her stab me. lol well it says it was low but not super low. She is diabetic, and requires insulin shots a couple times a day. She was laughing saying how i am such the opposite of everything.. people get skinny to get rid of issues i get smaller to get them:)

I'm gonna have to try that too! Thanks for the tip.

Just think Nicole, you might've cancelled out all/part of your walk BUT if you hadn't gone on the walk you'd be in the hole! So it's kind of a wash. :)

Whew! Evenin ladies!!!

I did it, I did it! Got back on track and did 1st day WII ACTIVE, 30 day challenge! And I rocked the burned calories! It was late, started bout 9:30, and boy does it feeeel good!

Yes Tamra, anytime, do you have the Wii yet? I also have both the Wii Fit and Active, any questions, will answer. I did start using the Wii Fit, to drop weight for Pre-op, and w/o any other excercises, or meal plans, that alone helped me, I know I lost inches, and THEN started doing the treadmill for 30, why? Cause I had the energy and want to to do it after on the Wii Fit! The Active is more of a personal trainer...but and it does track your exercises, Fit tracks all things, weight, bmi, and exercising. Was glad I had that first, but now they are coming with I heard...a Wii Fit Plus.

Ok, will try the hummus, thought it looked interesting, and since it is tried and true with our real ladies (who have curves, hehe) I will go get some!!!

Candra, my case nurse emailed me back...no, SSF, Kaiser is not doing single incision yet, and she also said they WILL fade! Like I said, get a cute tattoo over any that don't!hehe

Ok, so tracking, 25 min. on Wii Fit Active today & 6+ waters!

      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!!
