- Yep, I am a slacker. Those two extra shift yesterday kicked my behind, and I was so tired at work last night I couldn't come up with anything to say to you. In fact I am pretty sure there was an hour in my shift somewhere that I lost completely,...
- My surgery center refers patients to a local online support group. One of their requirements for surgery is to attend monthly support meetings, or the online group is a suitable option for those that can't make the meetings. So I joined the group...
- We folks, here it is, 2 am and of course time for my daily ramble. So glad to have you all to bear with my train of thought and some of you can even follow it when it jumps the track. :) Anyway back to the beast..... I am sitting here and...
- I know we have talked a bit about fitbit verses body media. Well while I was in Denver last week I found the fitbit display. I have worn a body media for a few years. I love the idea that the fitbit is more discreet. Body media is big and stands...
- I am starting to have some hair loss. This doesn't bother me as much as it might some as I have enough hair for 3 or 4 people, so a little loss might actually be a nice change. The part I find curious is that the only hair that falls is the still...
- I have watched so many married w/ children reruns I know the lines by heart. But tonight was special! Smokey and the Bandit parts 1 and 2! And then to top the night! Galaxy Quest! Lol. S n b was made almost 10 years before most of my officers...
- I don't think we have a current list of everyone ready to start their journey. So add you surgery date here so we can keep track of you and cheer you on! We realy need to know how much weight to lose and when so that there is enough room on the...
- I just wanted to throw this out there for you. I remember well the intimidation of jumping into a discussion board regrading something that most consider a touchy subject anyway. I doubt many of us ever really wanted to talk about our weight, and...
- It appears I am 12 weeks out today. It seems like it has been much longer! I am down 79 lbs. Halfway to goal! I went to dog class tonight for the first time since before surgery. Some people did not even recognize me. My hair is short as well...
- Why can I eat cashews, cheese sticks and even protein bars, but I cannot seem to keep any sort of meat down? Shrimp, Tuna, deli meats, chicken breast, it doesn't seem to matter what it is or how it is prepared, it all feels like it sticks and then...
- I have not journaled my journey to date. I like to live in the present, blah blah blah. Well I am learning as I go why I should be keeping a journal. I am 10 or 11 weeks out, I can't remember for sure. It all seems to blend together. I feel...
- What number are we aiming for in daily carbs? I have looked through paperwork from Dr but can't find that info. It is all about protein, which I get, but want more info on the other factors as well. Like fat too? Is there a magic goal number for...
- So one of my summer online courses is a health class. Most of our grade comes from disscussions on a board. This week is asking if we feel that a tax on junkfood will cure the obesity epidemic. It is amazing to see the number of college kids that...
- I am stuck. I knew it would happen, but dang it is frustrating. I am not even sure how long I have been stuck for sure, I was trying no to count the days, but now it is going into weeks. Yesterday, I pretty much camped out on the toilet, and...
- I pulled some jeans out of a storage tub the other day. I didn't even know they were there, but apparently put them away at some point thinking I would fit them again someday. I was sz 26 pre op and these jeans are 22 I think. Anyway I grabbed a...
