PT had me doing ball squats against the wall. I will see what else I can do with it. :-) I LOVE swimming, but moved away from the pool I was using. I will definitely check in to the Yoga. I have the Wii Fit that has Yoga on it. Jessie, what are hip opening stretches? Thank you all. <3

I am SO going to try this! It sounds great. Can you add other fruit to flavor it too, like strawberry, or does it mess up the texture?

Thank you for the help. I need all of it I can get. LOL. I had found the way to change stuff a couple of weeks ago. I changed a few of the settings, but I just don't know what to set it on. My surgeon never told me an exact amount of the different categories, just said no more than 8 ounces at a time, (I blew that one a…

Y'all, I have a problem/question. I have been doing this tracker for 3 weeks now. I had been eating WAAAY wrong for several years, and at first, had no trouble meeting the 1720 calories it set for me. I was eating the wrong stuff, AND grazing all day. After the first week, I wasn't eating as much, so I lowered the calories…

I had RNY in 2002, lost 150 pounds from then until 2004, then gained back 110 over the last 6 years. I've been on here for 20 days and doing pretty good. The thing I am noticing is that the more I eat better, the less it is taking to "fill" me up, and I am sometimes having trouble eating all my calories. As long as I am…

Still fairly new to this. Sorry I missed yesterday. I was out of town with my hubby and son. I am very proud of myself. Even though we were eating out, I behaved! Woo Hoo!!! I guess that was my Monday check-in. As for Tuesday, Goals..... Well, long-term goal is to lose the 110 pounds I gained over the last 6 years. Short…

I'm 40, and up until a year or so ago I absolutely HATED oatmeal. A friend of mine told me to think of something I really liked, and add it to the oatmeal. I made real oatmeal (as opposed to the microwave kind), added just a tad of low fat peanut butter, and drizzled the top with an itty bit of real honey I bought from a…

Yes, ditto what the first two have said. Do try to make a plan and try to stick to it, BUT know in your heart that whether you do or don't, you are still a loveable, worthy person who deserves good things. I am an emotional eater too, so I completely understand that addiction. I had to realize that my past doesn't define…

Bump.

I did suggest that she skip the liquid part. The rest of it is simply healthy foods that are good for us anyway. Gastric bypass patients just eat a lot less of it than others.

I had gastric bypass surgery in 2002, lost 150 pounds, and then over the last 6 or so years have gained back 110 of that. There is a thing called "The 5 day Re-set" that gastric bypass patients use to kind of "purge" the bad from our systems and get back on track with eating healthy again. It is a very rapid progression of…

I'm having to do it with the numbers already loaded under the specific exercises. I just wonder if I am listing it under the right descriptions.

Hi Mandy, I also had weight loss surgery, back in 2002. I initially lost about 150 pounds, but in the last 6 or so years I have gained about 110 of that back. I have tried many things, but the sad fact is "I am addicted to food". This tracking system is helping me SOOO much. I've been doing it since July 20 and I'm down 6…

I weigh daily also, not as a measure of my worth or success, but as a reminder of why I'm doing this. Making healthy choices throughout the day is easier for me that way.

Your post really got to me, because I say that word to myself way too much. I am trying to adopt a new attitude of not only "can", but WILL". Your thing about running though, made me remember something I saw a couple of years ago. It takes people who don't run and transforms them into people who do. This is the link to the…
