Been thinking about you all day. It's friday, did you do it?

So, the first picture is from February. My highest weight. The next is from today and the last I weighed myself I was at 32 pounds down. I have decided to stay away from the scale so I can't be sure if it changed. I just get too upset when I read the scale, so I am not getting on it until my next fill on 8/13. I had hoped I would have lost weight more quickly but have had to face the reality that it is going to be ultra slow for me and I just have to get used to that. I know I am doing everything right, but my body just doesn't want to give up the fat. My goal was to be thin by my 50th birthday and I still have 1 year and 3 months so I hope I can get it off by then. Anyway, this is extremely hard for me because I wanted it to be much more before I posted, but what the heck, here goes..........................

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!

Ohhhhh I only beat you by a few steps!!

Good for you!!!! Glad it didn't hurt and you got the restriction you needed. I have had some of that gulp pain but haven't actually pb's myself yet. Hoping I never do!

Happy anniversary and birthday!!!! An congratulations on your weight loss. Wow, what a good day you are having. Hope many more follow!

So you need a swift kick in the butt sometimes do you? CAN I DO IT, PULEEZ????? Just kidding. Hey, we ALL need one of those sometimes.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I cannot hear about ICE CREAM CAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for asking, she doing good. She told me last night that she felt much better after taking a huge crapola! HAHAHHAHA you know it always go back to crap!

Congratulations!!!!!!!

SO SORRY, I didn't mean to yell!! I re-read my post and it was kind of short and .......well, sorry. Just don't want you to ruin your band because I CARE ABOUT YOU!!!!! (((((HUGS))))) <<<<KISSKISS>>>> Now don't so it again!!!! LOL!!

Brat!!

YEAH for you! I just got a new one. It clips on much much better and is so quiet. Walmart, $12.00. The only one they had left. It talks too.

Yes, the liquid diet is a great way to get back on track. I have had to do it several times.

Yeah, please follow doctors orders, you can ruin the band if you don't!

My burps got much quieter, much to my dismay! I am no longer the belching queen! Now, as for the other end, forget it! I think that my new title now, FART QUEEN! And hey, farting is funny, so don't worry, just laugh! Besides, here on the board we LIKE to talk about gas and pooping too!

Join a walking contest! That motivated me enough to walk hours a day! I am such a sore loser, so I am determined to win. By the way, our team is up to 4th place and only 2 weeks left to go!

Try not to worry, it's nothing. Some people have no pain at all!!

A ton! Craploads. Or my favorite, a simple 'none'. Or even, I don't know, I don't have a scale. Just some ideas. Actually, I do say the amount. I figure that my weight is no secret, because people KNOW I am fat so hiding the number doesn't really matter to me. It's not like people can't tell anyway.

The best thing to do is to not watch. Just close your eyes. And anyway, it really doesn't hurt. So try to be calm and relaxed. Everything hurts when you are tense.

Thanks once again for another wonderful post!!! I have already used this for myself in the past when I felt I was getting off track. Doing the liquid diet was easy, for me anyway, so that was a great approach. I also noticed that when I stop eating carbs, I don't crave them anymore. But, it is always easy falling back into old habit.

Good for you!!!!

Well this is nice, and it is exactly what I am eating now! But it is nice to see that what I have chosen is a good idea! Protein drink for breakfast cheese stick for snack tuna for lunch cheese stick for snack turkey burger and veggies for supper Once in a while, I throw some fruit in there.

I'm still waiting!

Was it like a gallon worth of liquid? When I had mine, I had to take it over several hours and each time I had to sit again. But believe me, it ALL came out! Do not leave the bathroom once it starts. Get a book and stay seated.
