Well in the "back in the days", we would go out to eat... Not anymore! LOL Thank goodness right? Don't really want to go clothes shopping yet because I still have 35 to goal and that's still a good 2-3 sizes down at least. I'm thinking I might do a shopping spree at Ulta. I loooove that darned store!!

Thank you so much ladies!! Really and sincerely. Today is such an awesome day, and I have been fighting to see this for YEARS LITERALLY!!! I have not seen a One in front of my weight in TWENTY YEARS!!! I'm going to be honest here, I think I feel more joy right now than I will when I reach goal. No lie. And considering I was fighting to even see a TWO in front of my weight at one point... wow. Today is just so special for me!!! :'))) :D :D :D

Ok since I've now made my goal in the Easter thread, I'm going to start working on my new one. I have set myself to get to 180 Lbs... which would put me at 150 total Lbs lost from my heaviest. Wow!!! ____________________________________________ SN..............Starting Wt........Current.......Goal.......Lbs to Goal LilMissDiva.....199.6..............199.6............180............19.6

Congrats Klus!!! C'mon Julia -- I've seen you do it!! And for me and for the FIRST TIME EVER in these challenges... I have MADE MY GOALLLL!!!!

Nice! I live right close to Luther Burbank

Whoohoooo yay congrats Becca!!! :-D

I actually did not find out I had H. Pylori until after I had surgery. I was given the Prev-Pac and so far so good. I don't think they have to reschedule your surgery, some do some don't. I think if that was the case he would have said that. No worries, I believe your surgery will go on as planned.

Of course... You're steering your wheel!!

Don't be afraid!!! Welcome :) WOW!!! That is an awesome goal!! Good luck!! It's so easy to lose a lot in the beginning. You have a great shot at making your goal... good luck to you!!! Coops, I think the safest bet is to look back for the last 2 months and figure out what you are averaging. Make that your goal, or + / - a few. Just a thought... hugs!!!

C'mon already!! Only need 2 ounces to reach the goal and to see Onederland. *sigh* *shakes fist* ETA: Wow!!! I'm down 130 LBS from my highest weight!!!! whoottt!!! ____________________________________________ SN..............Starting Wt........Current.......Goal.......Lbs to Goal LilMissDiva.....221.8..............200.0...........199.8......... .2

LOL!!

Yep we can definitely do that. I have a lot of left over protein this and that...

Hi dimples, Please believe me, what you are feeling is VERY normal. I dealt with a lot of nausea as well post op. Potatoes hated me... so potato Soup was out of the question. Also, my sense of smell was heightened as well. My taste buds were out of whack and my energy level was non existent. But, here I am today 7 months out and I do not suffer from one of those things anymore. I have more energy now than I ever have!! It really does get better. The first month is by far the toughest - but it's only reserved for the toughest by far. Hang in there darlin', it will all work out. So many awesome things lie ahead!!! Hugs!!!

I'm so sorry you're not feeling well... just try to stay positive and keep your chin up. Once you see the results of the awful liquid diets and everything else, I have no doubt you would do it again in a heartbeat. Hugs!!!

For me this is something that didn't last all that long (unless you consider 2 months a long time). I was glad though since I couldn't really eat much anyway. No worries, it shouldn't last forever.

Hmm... I haven't really given it too much thought. But really some Game Hens sounds pretty good. It's been awhile since I've had those. Or maybe some BBQ chicken. Or BBQ Game Hens... And veggies of course. I'm over 7 months out. Happy Easter!!
