I gained back 15 lbs and it was hell to lose it . I have learned my lesson and I will weigh every day and keep exercise a priority in my life. I know now I can't throw in little treats here and there very often or I'll be battling another regain.

I am going to have to look into these skinny jeans. Not that I don't have around 20 pairs of jeans now. None that I really like though. I am just happy I can fit back into them again. All we have here is JC Penny and Macy's. So do those stores have good skinny jeans? We have Ross too.

I watched all of Weeds and all of Breaking Bad. I'm currently enjoying New Girl too. I love Netflix. It's so nice not to have to watch a bunch of commercials. I'd like to hear about some of the other series and what they are about.

Have you checked out the boot camp diet? It's basically the first stage of the atkins diet.. The weight really comes off if you follow it . The best part is it will get rid of carb cravings. It's posted right here in the vet's forum. I found this way easier than going back to liquids.

I read that book and I remember really liking the book and going back to the library to see if he had written any other books. I don't even remember what it was about . I need to read it again. I just remember really liking it. I did well with my eating yesterday. I am still seeing .2 which I want to be gone. Then I will be 137 something I've been spending so much of my time taking care the cats o of my friend who broke his hip. Today I need to go to the store and get him some goodies to keep in his room. They stuck him in a nursing home for physical therapy. It's really cold here and my gym has no heat so I'm not going.

I think weighing every day is the key to not gaining weight back. When you see the numbers going up, you can start adjusting your eating. I've pretty much gone back to basics, and I've lost all my regain. meat veggies and limited fruits.

When did this happen? I thought we had that taken care of.

I had 5 years of meno hell. I finally went on HRT and have been on them ever since. They are supposed to be bioidentical. I never want to go off of them. Globe I hope my box makes it there before Thanksgiving. I am really hoping to get to a new low after today's fast. I want to see that scale say 135 so badly . It said 137 this morning.

I have never had to do this in the 7 years i've been posting on lapbandtalk or sleve talk, but if someone's posts continued to bother me, I would block them. Then I wouldn't have to even see their posts. I would hope that most of us would in a tactful way, call people on their bs and if necessary, report it. It's agains the terms of service here, Ya know?

Those pictures are incredible!

Oh boy, so much going on! Swiz I am so sorry to hear of your burlary and current situation. That has to be hell. We are all thinking of you. I don't remember who said it but it was something about none of us are happy with ourselves. It's so true. I am 61 and I still trying to learn to love myself. Hell I don't even like myself sometimes, let alone love myself. It's so easy to think everything will be wonderful as soon as we lose the weight. I was very depressed when I got to goal because I still had all the same problems. My husband died when he was 36 and I have been trying ever since then to just have a happy relationship. Georgia you are catching up to me! Laura I can't believe someone would pm you just to be snarky. I would block them. I went to the hospital to see my friend who broke his hip Right in front of the elevators, they were selling these big cookies. Now I will be mad at myself all day and night for eating a giant cookie. Old habits just like I never had WLS . Cookie? Sure! I'll take one! Carry on Sisters . I love it.

I guess I need to go and find some skinny jeans. Then maybe I can get my picutres for my profile.

I am really bummed that I gained .6 of a lb after a day of fasting. I didn't cheat yesterday. I usually lose if I fast and exercise. Now today, I don't know what to eat. I was writing to some guy in Portlan where my son lives. Last night I talked to him on the phone. We are going to get together when I go to Portland. Now I have something to look forward to.

Geez, it doesn't get any easier. I am 61 years old and I have been through a few break ups before. My bf and I lived together for 2 1/2 years. We broke up 3 weeks ago. He has such a problem with money I just could not deal with it anymore. I've made a list of all of his annoying habits and reasons why I broke up with him. I have to look at it frequenly. But I'm still crying every time I think about him. I wish this would get easier. I know in my heart that I did the right thing by breaking up with him, but I still miss him so much.

I am still looking for help with my profile. I wish I could think of some funny line to add in there., What I may have to do is go through other women's profiles with a note pad. I sort of fasted yesterday because I was so bad on Saturday. It made fasting today rather easy. I can defintely see a difference in my moods and my weight when I go in and do at least a little bit of cardio. I haven't cried one time today. This is a first. Also, it's been a month since I've talked to him, and I am getting more used to being home without him. The hard part is I've never lived in this house without him. he was my bf when I found this house.

The name of the website is baggagereclaim.com There is a facebook group too that I can get reinforcement affirmations on my face book every day.

Someone actually gave me a very helpful website on breakups. They even have a facebook page. It's been a nice distraction. Thanks everyone. I feel so much better today. It's been a month now that we've spoken and every day should get easier.

Yeah, there is a forum on POF where people talk about all sorts of subjects, They have a broken hearted forum. I posted in there, and someone gave me a really helpful website about getting over breakups. Plus I ordered some moving on books from Amazon.

Are any of you getting medicare to pay for it? everyone here in Oregon is really getting impatient that it's never going to be covered here.

Can you reword it for me Jane? I am so sick of that profile and changing little pieces here and there that I could just scream "EITHER DATE ME OR DON'T!

Okay I will post my profile from one of the sites and I am open to any changes anyone wants to contribure.Yes, what I am going for is upbeat and witty and entertaining. Here goes: A little about me... I am a witty woman, who loves life. I am positive by nature and always try to find the sunny side of any situation. I am happy to share opinions, but there isn't much worth arguing over. People tell me my easy going nature is my best asset. I don't have a lot of baggage and I do my best to keep my life stress and drama free. I have great kids and I adore my grandchildren. I feel that I am very blessed. I love being outdoors, and finding the beauty in nature. Hiking on the many trails we have in this area is one of my favorite things to do. I also love to dance. Let's shake our bootys! I'd like to keep an open mind to trying new things. Do you have any ideas? About the one I'm looking for... I am looking for an easy going guy who isn't afraid to communicate.He likes to talk about a wide range of subjects and is a good listener as well. He enjoys the outdoors and snuggling on the couch watching a movie. too He appreciates a good listener and understands the importance of good communication with his partner. He wants to build a future with a woman who is his equal and his best friend. A good sense of humor goes without saying.. Feel free to put your two cents in here. I still have coops' in an email and I made some changes from her ideas and I wanted to "sit on" this one a couple of days. I still think it sounds very "vanilla" I want to pump it up somehow, make it more entertaining to read.

No there is no body dysmorphic going on here. It's just in pictures. I can't seem to get a good pose. I'm going to have one of my friends try to take some this week outside that are full body shots. Globe your box is on it's way. I hope I got everything in there that you asked for. As far as men being a replacement for food, that's not exactly right either. Truthfully, I got WLS so I could have a man in my life. I can say it all day long that I did it to be healthy, but the truth is, I knew I 'd never have a bf if I stayed fat. Then you fall in love with someone, and everything is great in the beginning. He managed to keep all his money problems a secret for a good long while. Slowly I started to find out about things that didn't sit right with me. Then there was the straw that broke the camels back and I knew I could not be wtih him anymore. That does not mean I stoped loving him. I just know from experience that you can love someone who is not right for you. It's very hard to break up with someone you love. Tonight I went to the casino where there was a live band playing. I had a blast dancing. I had some guy from out of town interested in me but he's 11 years younger than me. His friend was in the band. He wil be back in a month when the band plays here again. I hope to dance again with him then. This was just what I needed! The scale is not going to be nice to me tomorrow.

It's like the camera does put weight on you. They say being on tv adds t0 lbs. I've never really taken a picture that I like. I need someone that knows how to pose people. are pms working yet? You could pm me your email address and I'll send my profile to you. Coops made it sound better, but I'd still love it if someone come make at least one witty comment in there. I want to sound fun and witty, not dull and boring, like I usually sound. The men my age in the 60 range, look 90 to me. I totally understand about your "part time bf" i would want more too. Allen's problems are all connected to money. He gets himself into these deep finacial holes because he can't handle money.

I only gained half a lb from all the candy and chips I ate last night. I am happy about that. Maybe I can make it through the day today without crying. What are we going to do with the email group? If nobody emails to it, won't it just sit there? I don't think it needs to be canceled. Have we had anyone else wanting to join? I think we are big enough. If anyone wants to join, we should have them start a group. We talk about 5:2 in theads.

Are we all back to normal? I haven't tried to send a pm. I haven't seen Globe around. I know she was really having trouble getting on VST at all anymore because of the security on the computer she uses in Afghanastan.
