I can understand the concept of doing a “reset”. I do it from time to time (not calling it that) but when I feel my body is out of wack. I feel it. I can see it in my face. I look pale, my face looks long and gray and truly lifeless. I think the reset pouch concept was introduced because some of us basically didn’t stick…

I weigh in the kitchen. I think everyone should use a scale in there at least once to see what an actual serving looks like, then after awhile, you can measure just by looking. It’s crazy tho, to see what a serving of potato chips really look like...damn. My scale is in my closet, I weigh backwards at the doctor, I judge…

Awesome @DawnCumm :) You’ll soon get in a routine and maybe even enjoy it ;) Happy hugs to everyone that is having a rough week. We can do this!

Hey there! I don’t normally do a “reset” diet. I rather call it a “When did I feel the best diet.” reset. Think about what you were doing-/eating when you felt the best. When you didn’t feel bloated or distended or get sick. Remember those feelings, foods and situations that gravitate towards that feeling (and trust me,…

I’ve been MIA...You know the saying Murphy’s Law...anything that can go wrong...that’s been my my last few days but I’m keeping it together or at least I’m trying to. Tonight I’m going to a great sushi restaurant with some friends just to blow off some steam and I can’t be a bad thing right? I hope everyone has a great…

Not The Hawaiian Rolls!!! Damn Her! They’re so soft... I would eat those beautiful puppies any day! Gorgoeous! Man, the one in the left. That face! Priceless!

@loveshoe What the Hell! Work the hell out of those red pants!!! What?!!! You look beautiful! To all of those that are doing this challenge...we are doing this thing! I like the accountability. I realize it’s not just me! We all have our own personal struggles. What one person thinks is simple, isn't for another person.…

Well, I’m gonna put my goal out here in the internet universe. My family is getting pizza tonight. It won’t be gluten free. I will want to take a slice. Gluten is NOT my friend and sometimes, I don’t give a crap and dive right on it. So, I hope my goal is to resist. Half a point, it I eat just the cheese and toppings off…

@littlegibbs62 That’s AWESOME! I like that we can reset our goals! Every bit counts🤗
-
I hope everyone a great, fun and safe 4th for those who celebrate. (I’m posting after midnight) We had a pot luck at my MIL home. We have very strong personalities in our family and I went in with a “I’m not let any drama get to me.” That was my goal for yesterday. Debates always break out at the table, they start off okay…

I get a point today because today I had to call my insurance company 3 times and didn’t cuss anyone out! I believe one of the hardest jobs on the planet is being an insurance representative. I know they’re just trying to make money to live but I swear! Why do I have to get a pre approval from my doctor IF she writes me the…

I’m 1/7 I hope to get 7/7 Kat

Omg! I realized I had taken my Ambien when I started to write my post last night. I have no idea what I was trying to write😂 After re- reading my nonsense, this is wanted I would have written. So, forgive me. But, anyways, this is I wanted to say (pre-medication)...last night the family planned to watch a movie at 9:40 and…

I’m in! Didn’t do much today, I usually take Sundays off from any gym.exercise. I ldid exhibit self control for not yelling at my family! We we supposed to watch a movie at 9:40pm. Nobody came down. I didn’t yell. I got a stick cheese (which it what me helps me to get calm.) Apparently, 9:40 different work. It just wasnt…

DUH!! just saw this...forget my message :) :D :D :D

Congrats! We’re here if you need it. The beat thing is I think we all are in different stages so we can offer some advice and support! 🤗

I get it. I just have a membership for myself...when the kids were younger, I added them because I could put them on at asummer rate, but then as they got over and wanted to do other interests, I said...”Cool, you save us some pennies!”😂😂. They usually just will hike with dog now. Anyways, I know decisions are hard, but I…

Sis! Much kudos to you! @jcavanna2 and I know the guilt that comes with having a family.😂😂. Sometimes, I look at my family (especially my kids) and think “Really?” You’re making ME feel bad because I’m asking you to pick up YOUR clothes that YOU wear and put up the dishes that YOU ate from? “Really?”
-
@jcavanna2 Not sure what you have available in your area, but have you ever looked into a community center versus a gym? My community center is actually better than our gyms (we have Lifetime, LA fitness, Planet Fitness to name a few). I find it more people oriented (my opinion) and it just seems more like a family…

I don’t have one but I would ask yourself what do you get from your spin class. I like having others with me and I like the camaraderie in class (although, I know you can do online classes on the bike) I’m not sure that I could spin without that feeling, however, if you can spin and enjoy it, I say go for it!🤗. My friend…

This is so sad to say (and I say this a lot) but it will take some “pretty” known actress or actor to put Digestive Disorders out there in the media. I think every disease should be shown. You never know what’s happening behind closed doors, so show everything! I have a close friend that has been type 1 diabetic for most…

First of all congrats for loosing the weight! And also having a positive attitude to want to start over. However, I’m gonna have to break it to...ups and drowns are part of this thing we call life. And it can sometimes suck. But, anyway, I digress. Stress and comfort go hand in hand. You feel bad and we what will make us…

@HLaR79 Congrats! Try to rest up although I’m sure that won’t be easy 🤗. Watch the movie Interstellar and you’ll be out in like 40 minutes! I have watched it like 5 times (the first 2 times because it lulled me to sleep and 3 other times because I didn’t know what the heck was going on😂😂)
-
Lol 😂 @singingflutelady Yup. It’s kinda neat to see your “actual” output. I have actually pulled out pills that didn’t dissolve and seriously thought about washing off my medication to re-take. Did I? Or Didn’t I? Hmmm...😂😂 An Ostomy bag makes you question yourself so many times! But, I was grateful that it worked. Forever…

@singingflutelady Fiber is my 2nd arch enemy (1st is sugar) but I have gradually started eating it again. I grew up on fruits (in their natural state) and vegetables and I missed them so much. I usually eat on the toilet (TMI) but we’re past that🤗😂. Anything leafy comes out within about 10 minutes. My husband made me a…

I actually gain easily when I eat too low of calories. I hate when people say the “starvation mode” is a myth. Everyone’s body acts differently. I gain at low calories. I lost when I was doing 5,000 calories a day (yes, you read that correctly). I was on a feeding tube and my bag was 5,000 a day...7 days a week! Now, that…

Make sure you get other issues in check. It will make recovery a lot easier if you don’t have to worry about other things. I’m sure everything will go smoothly for you. Hang in there!🤗

@singingflutelady I’m a firm believer in trying whatever you can before more invasive things are done. At the time, I was too far for yogurt weekly to help me, but fast forward, I try to eat every natural probiotic that I can from beets to kimchi. I think that eating Whole Foods and plants (and doing juicing) has helped me…
