Things are going great, I got my BodyBugg Last week and lost 2 lbs! It really helps me to be able to see what is happening with my body. I have my second and last coaching session tomorrow - hopefully I will learn all that I need to for my new Bugg.

 

I have another fill this Thursday and I am really looking forward to that. I really think I am getting close to real restriction. As of this morning, I have lost 18lbs and couldn't be happier. I just really can't believe it. I am eating healthier than I have ever eaten.

 

Oh, I went and got a digital scale - I found it at Ross or TJ MAXX (can't remember), and I only paid $19.00 for it. I would suggest everyone get a good scale. After my first coaching session, my Coach said that I need to weigh everything, because most labels are wrong - to be truthful, I didn't believe her, but I weighed a couple things anyway.

 

BOY HOWDY was she right. 1 slice of bread weighed twice what it was supposed to! That really sucks! Most of my 100 calorie packs weigh UNDER what they are supposed to - I won't buy them anymore. I feel totally ripped off. I am going to buy the bigger bags and weigh them out myself.

I'm so happy for you! I went grocery shopping this morning and thought about trying to start eating healthier...then I thought I better not. If I lose weight before I am approved I might screw things up. Isn't that sad?

It's a gorgeous day here in Tampa, hope you are enjoying your day!

im so glad you sugested that i read your blogs. i have and they help and i just made my first apointment with my dr. to discus if i am eligable or not! i know i am my BMI is like 41.? and my dr. is funny about weight. you can go in for a spider bite and he might not even treat you for it cause he spent the whole time telling you how atrisk you are for this and that for being over weight. so i know he will push the omvelope for me!! whoot. but just incase, wish me luck!

I only made the 200% by a couple of lbs and TOTALLY pigged out before hand - don't forget, if you get close, you can add weights under your pants.

LOL, about the underwear - I can tell it is all fitting so much looser.

The scale I just got is a Salter Nutritional Scale - it actually has the capability of telling you serving size and nutrients of LOTS of items. It comes with a book and lots of codes, so you punch in the code for apple, put it on the scale and it will tell you how many calories, fiber, etc. . . I didn't need all that, but couldn't find a simple digital scale and my regular scale was awesome, but I couldn't tell how many grams (exactly) so I upgraded.

    • I’ve used my Xbox for exercise games too and it can be pretty motivating, especially on days when I don’t want to leave the house. Kinect games really do make you move, and after a session with kickboxing or dancing, I always feel like I’ve actually gotten a solid workout. The controller-free setup feels way more natural for workouts than anything I tried on the Wii. Zumba is fun but definitely takes a little time to get the moves right. Lately, when I’m not working out, I spend time trading CS2 skins and finding new guides on this link. There’s a lot of interesting tips if you’re into games outside of fitness too.
