  1. Happy 24th Birthday REDsparkles11!

  2. Hey everyone, I am needing help/suggestions. I am so stressed with my current situation with family and moving, I have found myself going back to the only thing I know how to deal....food. I need to get back on track, but have little motivation. I had my surgery March 31st, 2011 and have lost 60 lbs. So its been slow, and I have about 60 more lbs to go to goal. Does anyone have any tips on how to get back on track and feel excited again? I'm desperate for help. Thanks tons.
  3. Haven't been on here for so long. Oh, how I've missed you all! Lol. Doing good, trying to get out of this rut....:-/ Hope all of you are doing well <3

    Phentermine?

    Ok everyone, I have a question. I have some Phentermine left over from before I had my Lapband surgery, and for those of you who have taken it before, it gives you A TON of energy, and we are moving this weekend...Haha, So I was maybe wanting to take one for some extra energy, and I wasn't sure if it would be safe. I've tried to call my Dr. office but the answering machine is saying the office is closed. What do ya"ll think? I appreciate your feedback
  7. I thought I had replied to you, but apparently not!!! I'm doing awesome! I'm two days from being 5 months out. I've lost 57lbs, hit my first plateau but that's ok since I adjusted my calories, plus I have a fill on Thursday ;) It's been about 3 weeks since I've lost any but I am maintaining!! How are you doing lady???

  8. I'm doing wonderful!! I've lost 58lbs since April 1st!! My BMI has dropped 10points...and 3lbs away from my halfway point! I'm so excited!! How are you??? Hopefully a success ;)

    Fish sticks.. Good or bad?

    I eat alot of salmon fillets and tilapia for dinner, but I just like the fish sticks for lunch because their easy, and they DO NOT taste like junk food, nor are they, Their calories are very low, and high protein, and I always stay inside my calorie range. Its not that I like them because their like junk food, I stay away from junk
  10. Hey girl, how are you? I havent spoken with you in so long! How is everything with the band going? :) Fill me in!

    Fish sticks.. Good or bad?

    So I bought some Fish sticks from Costco that are by the brand Trident. I have already tried one bag before hand, and they are great, and only lightly breaded... I have lost almost 50 lbs. So Im figuring they should be ok to eat for lunch, I usually only have 3 or 4, and their very small. What do you guys think? Its a super easy way for me to get the protein from the fish... Just wanted to know if anyone else has tried them Thanks bunches! Kayla

    Head hungry

    I have had the exact same problem. I got a fill today, so hopefully it will kick my self control and motivation back into gear. I hope your head hunger goes away soon! Good luck dear!

    STRUGGLING.....

    Thank you so much for all the great ideas! Ive been plateaued for about 2 weeks now, but i did up my protein and am starting to drink more water now, and the scale nudged a bit And I just signed up for a gym membership! I have cut back on other things to afford it, and so we will see how it goes. I got a membership to Anytime Fitness. I am so so excited to get this thing going and becoming active! Thanks for the feedback and support Much love. Kayla
  14. I am starting to struggle big time. I got my Lapband on March 31st, 2011. Im doing great with my diet. Proteins, water. Ive lost 39 lbs. so far, but now, Im at a plateau. I need to start exercising and working out, but I cant seem to find the motivation. Im just wondering if anyone else has had the problem with getting started being active. Did anything help? Ive taken Zumba before, and loved it, but I dont have a gym pass anymore, and its over 100 F degrees outside, so I melt haha. Not sure what to do. Much appreciated. Thanks Kayla

    Still Hungry Sometimes???

    Hey! I am around a thousand calories a day, give or take a few depending on the day. But I just had my second fill today, and Im at 3.5 cc's. Im pretty good when I eat, as long as I get my protein in! If I eat chicken, fish, eggs etc. then Im usually pretty full afterwards and it lasts for a couple hours. You should start to feel satisfied soon I would think Good luck with everything! Kayla
