i would love to be friends with all of you! i have lost 64 so far, another 50ish to go, but we will see...

wonder if using pb2 would help lower the calories, and use more protein powder.

hi amanda. i started at 278 in the fall. i am down to 218. i had gastric bypass surgery in october. you might want to make your first goal something more attainable sooner, like 300. then lower it by 20 pounds each time you get to that goal.. just my two cents.. anyways, i would love to be your friend. add me if you want.

i had my gastric bypass on october first, so im scared!! do you know why youre gaining? what did you change? vitamins, b12, biotin, eating habits?? what changed emotionally for you? have you seen the new forks and spoons that time your eating and slow you down?? oh i have so many questions

pretty, thanks for the idea of the hot lemon water in the morning.. i forgot about that..

master cleanse thats what he tried.. did nothing! our bodies are not made to treat like garbage.

i often wonder if these work, or if cleansing is just a bunch of b.s... what cleanse are you doing? my brother in law did a vinegar, lemon, garlic thing once.. i dont remember exactly what it was. but it was awful.

hi, i had rny on october first, 2012.. just 4 months ago.. i am so glad i did it, although eating will never be the same again!! definitely add me as a friend, and we can chat. best decision i ever made!

hi susan, i have a bodybugg and the digital display. ive been thinking of selling both of them.. anyway, i have used it in the past, and it is awesome. it really does work. handy gadget to have, unfortunately i felt like it was a bit bulky on my upper arm, but that might have just been me.. also, i know that with these…

* don't* keep it up

first i thought you were a jerk due to the fact that you claim your body is awesome... that is way too stuck on yourself right there.... and then i looked at your profile specs... and the seinfeld thing cracked me up, so now i like you. you pass the test. i dont care if a man is skinny, fat, muscled or not, its the…

invisib, oh my god!! i cant believe thats even you!! you look amazing!! congrats!

rejected. not into women, but youre pretty and your cat's cute!

also, agree that there is no easy fix. plus, this drug will most likely turn out to be just like phen-phen and redux of the 90's and be pulled off the market for untold heart damages, strokes, and deaths... i had friends that were on phen phen and redux in the 90s. they lost weight all right... but as soon as you go off…

isnt phenteramine the drug that was used in phen-phen?

im 45, going to be 46 in april.. i feel ancient, and yes, my kids tell me im almost 50!! i feel like im 80 with all my arthritis and gout... we need to do this!! welcome to your journey, it is a forever change. smaller portions, better choices, exercise, and water!!! add me as a friend if you'd like. sheila

i literally just sent my hubby out to the store to buy the stuff to make this tonight!!! thanks for the recipe. cant wait to try it!

gastric bypass surgery is a very serious surgery, and not done just to jump start a diet... everyone on here has given you very good, sound advice... it really does sound as though you have your mind made up.. so after the fasting, and when that week is over, then what?? i know you truly believe that after the first week,…

i agree that baby food stage 1 or 2 veggies and fruits could be added into foods or smoothies... also, i agree that seeing a therapist about food aversions/food issues would be crucial to your healing.

i know this is going to sound weird.. but i eat this all the time.. not sure what to call it. in a saucepan you add grilled chicken slices, or cooked shrimp, whatever you like.. then you add frozen okra slices, diced onions, diced peppers, and a can or two of tomatoes with green chilies in them... you then simmer it til…

i agree with tek.. i always have a snack before i go to sleep around 1 am... i usually have a few strawberries, or some unsalted chips with hummus, or an occassional chocolate chip cookie or two! but as long as i plan for it, and i dont go over my allotted calories for the day, i dont worry about it.

no wait, my first 45 record i bought with my own money was start me up by the stones... wow

kristen, me too!!! loved shaun cassidy, david cassidy, partridge family... wow, we are old!!!!! :)

i wasnt impressed with it... i took it for over 6 months. no big change... its basic.. exercise, calories in, calories out.. no quick fix. we have to work for it. my doctor said no to alli

maybe clean eating should refer to as basic in nature as it can be... as fresh as mother nature made it.. like fruit, veggies, whole grains, homemade marinara sauce. stuff like that... is that what clean eating means?

i had gastric bypass in october, so i have to be on a slew of vitamins for the rest of my life... i have to say i feel more energy just from the vitamins ive been taking. i take optisource bariatric vitamins, orange flavor. they have tons of well rounded vitamins and minerals in them. d, b, e, folic acid, etc... however,…

80s and 90s music that has a good beat and i know all the words to!!! that always helps. then i know if im singing, and get winded, that i need to slow down my exercising.

do you have any issues with sodium?? i know my husband is vegan, and when he eats salty things, his weight goes up a few pounds daily. same for me, but im not a vegan... i just look at salt, eat one stupid pickle, and the next morning i am up 5 pounds on the scale. also, if your photo is you right now, i dont personally…

hi amanda, i bought walk it out... its kind of childish, ages ten and up, but i tell you, i walk a mile and a half in no time, on the board, and its so cool because i have really bad knees and hips, but this doesnt stress them out. plus its got upbeat songs on it, like boom boom pow, and walking on sunshine... if you dont…

hi guys! i have another 80 to lose, ive already lost 50.. i've added most of you i think, if i didnt ask for your friendship, please add me!!!!!! i need tons of encouragement, tons and tons!! but i am also kind of into the swing of things, so i can help with advice too! please add me!! im here for you!
