I know this makes no sense...and I have had a hard time wrapping my head around it...BUT you are putting your body in starvation mode cause you aren't feeding it enough. It takes what you are feeding and storing it. Your body says you ain't feeding me, I am gonna keep ahold of what little you do feed me. Here is my…

congrats!!! With all my skin sag...no one will ever see me in a bathing suit.

As I get smaller, I am cleaning out my closet. At present, I don't have much to wear...I haven't been this small in over 20 years. Right now I am buying thrift store clothes cause I hope to be out them soon....and they go back to the thrift store. So my reward comes when I reach 145...and maintain it for a couple of…

Hubby's home and that means at least an hour of GAC...so it would what is on right now. Chris Young's You

Feel free to add me as a friend.

Let's go for a walk. I love to walk. I am in Onderland!!

Seriously?

I have had gastric bypass. 98% of the people who have diabetes and have the bypass are CURED...yes I said cured...of diabetes. I had bypass as compared to the sleeve or band for that very reason. My Hemoglobin A1C before surgery was 7.1 and I took meds twice a day. The day before surgery was the last time I took my meds.…

I don't understand why people have to bash others. If it is working for you...go for it. Lord knows, I have been bashed a lot cause I took the 'easy' way out. I had gastric bypass. Ain't nothing easy about it. But hey....I ignore those who are negative to me or others.

How many grams of sugar? Most of the yogurts have more than 10 g sugar. I can't have more than 10

I was always the one who said it is way to hot in here. Lost 112 pounds and I am cold all the time. I go to bed with my feet hurting from the cold. I have been going to bed with socks on....which I usually end up kicking off and have to put them back on again. I used to be barefoot all day around the house. Not any…

Lets see...I have noticed them all!! I lost my wedding band last week. Luckily I found it this week!! Its on a chain now. I am cold ALL the time. And skin sag...YUCK!

Great job!!!

I agree. You are opening yourself up to trouble by not taking. Work on getting healthy and follow up with the doctor monthly to evaluate your continued need for the blood pressure medicine.

Oh yea...it is good. Now the directions are to use water but I don't like it that way. I use skim milk

I see a lot of people are NOT logging housework and cooking. I do. Why? Until recently, I didn't do those things...AT ALL. Now that I have some weight off...I do them often. And since cleaning hasn't been done in so long when I do clean...I attack a room. My downstairs is now done and I am tackling the upstairs. But now…

I commended to a friend the other day..how many calories do I burn when crocheting...cause I crochet for hours and hours. LOL But I really don't call it exercise.

What a difference!!! Congrats

WooHoo...great job!!!

Woo Hoo!! Good job. Your story is pretty much like mine. I'm 5' 4" and tipped the scales at 306. I'm a bit older...50. Crossing that 300 pound mark was a deal maker for me. I remember being a teen and saying I will never weigh more then 175. As a young adult I said I would never let myself be 200 pounds. Then I upped that…

I'm a walker. My excuses are... it's to cold! I don't drive so can't get to the mall to walk unless hubby is home...he works 5-6 days a week 11 hours a day. The price of the Radar bus that will pick me up at home and drop me off at the door of where I am going is $3 one way. Making it $15-18 a week...if I go and have hubby…

I am waiting for payday to get Al's new book that came out yesterday. But I have read bits and pieces of it. I have had WLS. Even having had this surgery, I can still gain weight...If I eat to many carbs or calories. So those days that I do mess up and don't see a loss or worse yet, see a gain, I don't beat myself up any…
