A new toy makes everything funner! When I did Protein shakes I had a Blender Bottle..Its this bottle with a whisk ball in it, Id pour in the mix and shake it all up..gave me a work out and tasted yummy!

claps and congrats on losing thus far. I know its hard, but try not to compare yourself to your mother. she had hers done earlier and honestly shes not you. Endo of story. Everyone loses at a different rate..I stopped losing weight about 2 months after my surgery. it was like my body put on the brakes, doing everything it could NOT to lose the weight, becasue it realized this was for real. I seriously went for 3 months and lost like 3-10 lbs..it was awful and I felt worthless and honestly angry!!!I had restriction and was walking but nothing.. Now, check out my ticker..not even a year after my surgery and Im almost to goal. It suddenly clicked with my body. I began to lose again. Please dont get too down about losing. I know its hard, but please keep in mind, you have 20 lbs gone that will NEVER be back. Go pick up something that weighs 20 lbs..its alot of weight. As to food..i play with mine alot, to give myself ample time to see if Im full. It also helps to chew alot, for the same reason. Just slow down and enjoy the taste of food. its something I had to learn to do. Please dont worry, the weight will come off! If you need to talk or rant about it, message me. Ive been there. I stopped coming to the forum bcI would get depressed when I saw everyones tickers and my didnt freakin move! tiff

hahah I was just thinking the same thing..I look HOTT in clothes..take them off ugh Now thats Ive lost so muvh weight Im noticing that I am really not as pretty as I was hoping to be..Kinda thought there might be a swan under the fat..nope! lol My sister is famous for double sided compliments..her new fav for me is..O tiff your face is so thin now, it makes your ears look even bigger!:faint:

Ugh I offically hate both of yall..Italy..or a beach trip..Man o man I would kill for one..a trip ANYWHERE would be nice at this point..what a great way to meet people

HAHAHAH I am so sorry, but does nayone else wonder how in the heck do these kids get in college? :confused:I love the alligator idea...ever wonder how a flood, which btw alligatos LOVE could shorten thier lifespan? hmm..alien viruses from asteroids..well thank god I got a biohazard suit for next time one of those asteroids comes down in my front yard..hate to get the Venus flu or a cold from Pluto..maybe even the ring of death from saturns rings!... As horrible as this sounds I can beat this..I was sitting at home one day watching animal planet on this episode over whales. My little sister is sitting on the couch..she is also in school right now, howI have no idea but anyways, she turns to me and asks "Tiff do whales breathe?" I sit there trying to make sense of her question. Is she asking me how they have the lung capacity to hold thier breath for so long, is she wondering how thier lungs can hold air as they dive deep where the pressure increases...then i realize..shes actually asking me if they breathe..air. "Yes Brea, being mammals, they use oxygen, and they fill thier lungs up with it, much like we do". Her reply" O, well I figured they looked so much like fish that they had those slits in thier head (I assume she meant gills)." I actually let it slip out..I can't help myself.."Moron"..to which she replys "Well how am I supposed to know they are mammals..and that all mammals are the same. Reptiles and fish breathe Water, whales might too"..I honestly got sick and left..too many things wrong in her last statement to correct..Thank god shes pretty though because she will never be married for her intelligence!:embarassed:

Welcome to the board! Good luck on your journey..I dunno what type of liquids you are supposed to stay on but when i did it I would go get Chinese Soups and eat them..broke up the routine anyways good luck

i mostly feel sorry for people like this. It must be hard to have to carry around with you all the past offenses that an entire race experienced. What a heavy load. Meanwhile I had a friend who had a lower GPA and lower ACT scores and same extra activites as me, difference between us..Im white, shes black..She got accepted to a better school that we both applied to..I always thought it was a race thing. But thats ok. I am glad I dont feel guilty or responsible for things that occur to people the same color as me in the past. And Im also glad that MOST people are responsible and sensible to realize that not everything is about color anymore. Maybe one of these these holdouts from an old way of thinking will finally accept that many people see people, not color. Until then, just feel sorry for them. Its all you can do

Growing up, there was 3 girls, so christmas was always hectic. Our living room had a hallway coming off of it and with a door that could be closed..the bedrooms and bathrooms were down this hallway. Santa and later my parents would wrap each girls presents in different paper, to ease the confusion of kids ripping off paper..who has time to read labels? and a scrap of paper was saved and it had our name on it, and taped to the closed hallway door. We would get up early and stare at those 3 strips of paper. I guess when I was 10 or so I was really big into horses and had likw 100 model horses. My father built me a stable and paddock to put them all in, but hid it. I had a small pile of gifts that year and the last box I opened had a note inside..it sent me on a scavenger hunt all around the house..by the time I got back to the tree, there was my stable and pasture..he even made Water troughs and saddle racks. I guess the one thing every year that gets me is my moms decorating..she loves christmas. We have a tree in every room of our two story 5 bedroom 2.5 bath house. The formal living room actually has two trees..full sized. smallest trees are 2 feet tall and go in the bathrooms..every other room has a full sized tree..decorated to match that room. my lil brothers room is done in skateboarding..last year my mom went out and bought a whole bunch of finger skateboards and put ornament hooks on them. garland is hung from every window and ribbon around every pillar. windows get frosted and she even decorates the dog house. While I will never do this much myself, I have always felt that my mother was expressing her love for us in her decorations. Happy Holidays

those arent as good for you as the protein shakes, they wont have the high protein in them..try watering down the shakes..that usually helps..if not find a shake you can drink with as much protein as you can..maybe add soy protein to those or something

Do any of you remember baby jessica? I was young when it happened but a psychic helped get her out..so flash forward about 12 years..my friend and I went at 4 am to this seedy district of downtown houston to go see this guy. Got in line..he saw like 20 people a day and took no money but did have a donation box by the exit..not the entrance. I went first..he told me my weight would come off, I would be happy yad yada then said my dead grandfather was watching me, and he said sorry..my grandfather was a pervert so this kinda shocked me that this man apoligized for him watching me..and he said watching not watching over..then the really freaky thing happened, my best friend is coming in as I am leaving, she doesnt even get across the room beofre this man asks wheres micheal..mike is her bf. I hated/hate the guy so we never talk about him when we were together..ever. Its a sore subject for us so his name is not mentioned..heck now hes her husband and we still dont talk about him! anyways, it was totally weird... as to most of these guys..i look at it as during the day time theyre psychics at nite theyre the call in phone sex voice...they know nothing and do nothing but drain bank accounts..Im sorry but ANY person who could pick the lottery numbers would...they dont want money from thier sight BS..win and then donate it to the red cross..then Ill believe you, instead of writing books and being on tv..as for the gy I went to I like to believe that something was real..but i cant explain it.

Well since I am so close to my goal and my stomach is still fat, I will do 109,500 crunches or about 300 a day,,geez ouch..abs o steel here i come

Or me.. you donated the money to a poor college student what about a basket of organic nuts or dried fruit...wine? men you dont know are the worst to buy for

i got a pic of my insides too..I had the doc print them out and I posted them on my fridge...helped me in the beginning to remember that hey youve got a band, what are you doin?! Course when all my college friends saw it they took one look and all said the same thing.."You need to drink more", my liver takes up a good portion of one pic and its so pretty you could donate it Not really the goal of some of my buddies :waytogo:

as a 20-something I would have to agree...if your are not appreciative of a gift..then you deserve to have it taken away! Maybe he would like to have a house and stuff on land you own, and not konw from one day to the next if you were going to sell it...Why is it so many people my age have a hard time putting themselves in others shoes...grrr

I get like that most days...I mean if you read my stats..down from a 24-to a 10..thats alot of weight..but I dont see it, and I get upset when people call me skinny..becauseI am still as fat as I ever was, and it doesnt seem that the things you do notice, the way your thighs dont converge and explode over the side of the chair when you sit, or that you might actually have a hip bone... they dont seem to add up to it as much...When I get to feeling like this, I take out a shirt I used tow ear at least once a week..and put it on..my shoulder goes through the neck hole on one side...this helps..but remember, you see yourself everyday, so changes are gradual..and while you cant see past that fat roll you still have, everyone notices that roll used to be three!

need a buddy on this? I want to go down at least a size if not a size and a healf beofre my 1 yr bander-versary in Feb...so I need to push too right now...:bandit

So do you refer to yourself with the F- word? --side note--that reminded me of Seasme Street, I can picture Elmo, Today kids the letter is Ff. As in fat. Flubber, freaking large, flab..haha-- Just curious? I mean everyone pretty much does on here, which is ok because if we werent all fat at one point then itd be a lil silly to be on here... I mean like when talking to "normal" sized people, or anyone.. For ex: "I couldn't get my fat a** outta bed this morning" I never did that..still cant..I might make references to being bigger, like I cant sit on your lap the chair would break..but never fat..just wondering and Im advoiding studing for two VERY important tests tomorrow

Krazy Kooper the Kat any cat lovers out there? My cat is freakin nuts! Ok so he was thrown from a moving vehicle on the interstate when he was a kitten, someone stopped and took him to a vet, whichis where I got him from...anyways he has problems... He has seperation anxiety..seriously.. If i leave for more than 8 hours, he starts pulling out his own fur..like a bird! At first we thought it was allergies...nope vet finally diagnosed him..this was after Kooper had to be completely sedated...he doesnt tolerate men touching him..i figure it was a guy that threw him.. He plays fetch Fav game. Laying on his back in the winter and waiting for my chi to walk by in his jacket, then he'll hook his arms around him and Kip the dog takes off..prob is the cats like 11 lbs..kips 7 soaking wet with a towel. Now thats its cold again my three year old cat has become a kitten again. I cant have a tree..even a fake one..last one I had he climbed to the top and started ripping branches off, then his fat butt bent the core of the tree...WELL now Im stuck on my computer, because he keeps attacking me. I put my feet on the floor and I get attacked...:help:..meanwhile the dogs, being a heck of alot brighter than me are pinned down on the bed, so while they are stuck..they are comfortable..I can t sleep in a chair..last dash I made for cover resulted in a ripped pair of jeans.. To keep me entertained until my lion gets hungry,and leaves for food anyone else got funny pet stories??

I would do it over again..heck even if it was ten times harder than it was, Id do it over.... I love this band and Ilove what Ive been able to do when I use it and Ilove the person I am becoming!

Well on the plus side maybe Kooper isnt too bad after all.. Although this one timeI had this AC repair man come to the house to work on the AC..he was worried about the dogs and I told him not to be, and locked them up...so hes minding his own business when all of a sudden...theis streak of orange comes racing around the corner and launches at the guy..Kooper attachs himself to the guys thigh and is biting with all his might...thank god the guy had on a work jumper over his clothes...but he just stood there in shock.. I mean come on!! And Kooper would not let go. I end up having to be in front of this guy on my knees trying to dislodge the cat, and my sister walks in..says o sorry and walks out...she thought I was trying to get the AC fixed for free apparently! :embarassed: I thought I was going to die of embrassment and of course laughter...Finally I got kooper off and he just walked away tail swishing like " You wont come into my house again will ya buddy!" needless to say, that company wont come back to the house

Alright so for my graduation present, my little sister is buying my my first tattoo, and as Ive said on another put, Im getting ants marching down my back in a curving pattern, ending at the base of my pants. My dad says if we got a tat while he was payin for school, hed stop, but, well now Im done YAY! Anyways question is has anyone had a problem with tats on thier back as they lose weight? Im a size 8/10 now and my ultimate goal is a size 6, so Im not going to shrink too much more I dont think, and I already lost my back rolls (:clap2:) but Id hate to get this tat that Ive wanted for like 2 years, and then it look like messed up fish or something because I lost more weight Thanks...O and yes, I came up with the design myself, I gotta get the artist to confirm in and make sure its do-able.. as far as size goes and stuff, Im thinking inch-inch and a half per ant, but dunno 100%

Im with you, I live alone so its hardly worth cooking, I seriuosly walk down aisles and think nope nope nope nope....I usually end up with like lean choice or something microwave meals..usually at least they r small..not the healthiest thing in the world but what can i do..i have to force myself to eat!

thanks!! Yeah I do 2 hrs of areobics a week and 2 hrs of Karate a week.. I have to take classes bc I dont have the motivation to walk everyday..bored easily..my classes are over now, so Im looking for a kickboxing class..I also do crunchs on my stability ball...way easier than on the floor, I recommend them for ab work..plus its been shown that just sitting on them while watching tv loses weight thanks again:wacko:

I can eat shrimp..but it comes up for a revist..no matter how loose or what..ugh shrimp revist..not fun trust me:omg:

My weight started in kindergarden, when I was molested...food was a comfort, since I couldnt tell my parents about it My mother also has an eating problem. She came from a poor family of 11, so there was never enough food to go around, so when she had kids and a job, food was a reward, which is where I picked that up from. My sister and I have a love/hate relationship..WE got along great until after my surgery..see Im supposed to be the fat one in the family. Now, if I call her up to say how I bought a new pair of jeans or lost 5 lbs..its like Im insulting her..and shes not obese..shes a 16/18..she cant stand the fact that I am thinner...Well normally being the middle child, I would try to appease her and sabatoge my loss..ive done this before, not intentionally, but looking back on it I did..Nope. I have figured that my sister has her own personal demons and that it is easier on her to take them out on me. I am not gonna let it bother me anymore. Plus I think Americans, and Im sure other countries as well, tend to reward themselves with food..as a kid go to mcdonalds and you want that toy..gotta get the food and eat it all..O you made an A tommy, lets go buy you some icecream...
