CONFESSION TIME..spill it



Recommended Posts

I've heard the Slimfast are no-nos too, but I don't really know why. However, for a few years now I've done the EAS Myoplex Lite Carb Control and really like them, especially in chocolate. Seventeen grams of Protein, four grams of carbs, about 100 cals.

Where do you get those, Beth?

The sell them at GNC, but for far too much money. I get them at Walmart for less than half the price. GNC sells them for about $10 for a pack of four, and WalMart sells the same stuff for about $4.97.

Hmm, what does that tell you? As I said in another thread, Lulu is my only FB friend. Very few on FB know about my surgery..

What, I am hurt that Lulu is the only worthy one of being your friend on FB. Actually, I think you will see that most of us never talk about the band there. I only comment to people who are out in the open about it and they post something related to it, then I will respond. You should be safe. Now add me, damnit! shane_yell.gif

I hear ya, I love it when I have what I call a "me day" when I am home all alone and get to play with my "toys". Yet, the family always feels guilty for leaving me. If they only knew that secretly I am actually pushing their bootys out the door!

Beth, not trying to piss you off or sound catty, but if you drank those for several years and still needed the band, maybe you should stop drinking them now? <ducking head and running for the door>

Since you're in the medical field, isn't there some sort of requirement that you have to be on call 24/7 and respond for requests to come in within a specific time period? Maybe that's just for doctors?

Oooohh, you bees SO bad! :(

I obviously need to clarify, otherwise I AM selling the product short, ain't I?

I love them for Breakfast because I am never hungry first thing in the morning. At least I used them when I dieted, and I'm using them still. On mushies it's hard to get all my Protein so I drink a couple a day.

I hope that helps! :eek:

      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!!
