Eat protein, veggies, fruit and whole grains, just like your surgeon said. Chips, cake, cookies, potato's, etc. go down real easy but its not giving you what you need. I know, I've been there:flowerforyou: Good Luck

You nailed it!

Get a new boyfriend and Doctor!

Doles frozen chocolate covered strawberries 50 calories per pack (4) YUM:tongue:

Disgusting avator:angry:

I'm glad someone brought this subject up because its been making me crazy. I weigh every morning and either get all excited because I'm at a new low or feel irritable all day because I show a gain. Sometimes its up and down as much as 1-2 lbs. I am going to have my husband hide the scale so I will only weigh once a week.…

I can give you a 45 year study of 3 women. It is not scientific but it is factual. These 3 women would be in the obese range. 2 of the women were in the morbidly obese range. 2 of the women had bariatric surgery, 1 did not. All 3 women have been on Adkins, WW, grapefruit diet, non fat diet, no carb diet, etc. 1 woman went…

Thanks for the information. I'm not sure what AguaFit is but I will google it as well as the Polar HRM. Would you tell me what your average workout time is and the calories burned?

If you are 20,30,40 something you will still look your age, if like me you are 60 something you will look older but who cares!! I feel and think like I'm 30 something and my husband thinks I am smart, sexy, and sees me as he did 43 years ago, with eyes of love:blushing:

Find a whole grain, non sugared cereal and portion it out in baggies for the crispy craving. There is one brand and I can't think of the name right now but it is whole grain, low calorie and CHOCOLATE flavor. YUM:wink:

good advise

What is the group called? I would like to join it.

Hello, Its nice to see someone post who also is using swimming for exercise. I run around the pool for 30 minutes using the water as resistance, and then do some core exercises using noodles or floats for extra resistance. After I finish these 2, I do lots of stretching and just enjoy paddeling around the pool. I enjoy…

rude reply to silly reply......:ohwell:

Shoot, I allocate calories to take to bed with me, I love to read and this just makes it a treat:tongue:

I also remember McDonald, in fact the first one was built in San Bernadino, California where I lived close to. My parents took us their on special occasions, or because they wanted a burger. They were cheap and a big treat for kids. OK..........................when I was a kid we played outside until dark, swam at the…

I went to webmd.com to check out what they (Doctors had to recommend for my weight lose based on age, 60, current weight, 195, and amount of exercise. There recommendations were very close to MFP. It said for me to eat 1262 calories a day, exercise 150 minutes a week and to add 2 days of core strength work outs. I have…

Not only to you look fantastic, you look 10 years younger:happy:

TOPS is a old club, I belonged to it 35 years or so ago. It is a group of women who support each other, weigh in weekly, have small contests, and generally fellowship with one another. There are area and national conferences where you can be awarded trophies for losing the most weight, attended the most meetings, etc. It…

Oh Honey, you are absolutely beautiful!

I did not walk for 2 days due to some family issues and today I could feel the lack. I have been doing the Leslie 3 mile with pilotes and today I could not hardly finish the 2 mile. I just felt exhausted and weak. I got into the pool for an our or so and stretched, walked through the water, and played around. I am hoping…

I did the 3 mile walk/pilates with Leslie today.:bigsmile:

Hello and good morning! I am so happy to find this group. I have been walking with Leslie for about 1 month now and love It. I walk outside too when the weather is nice but find when I do the steps inside with the video my feet do not hurt as much. I have bone spurs in my heels. I started my get fit plan on January 2 this…

I am a binge eater also. I have been consistantly losing since january 2nd, lost 35 pounds, exercised pretty good, and then............................I have not lost any weight for 2 weeks which has just frustrated me to no end. I have tried increasing calories, decreasing calories, more exercise, and I just can't make…

Rocket scientist::tongue:

:drinker:

Anxiety is a part of or can be depression. Depression is not a behavior or a lack of character. I think based on what you have written that you are depressed/anxious and eating is your medication. See a Doctor, let a expert see if a simple anti- depressant would help.

nah, no divorce, she is just musically challenged:wink:
