    HI AlllI am down 105 pounds but have noticed the last few weeks I have been able to eat sooo much. I ate a whole subway 6 inch sandwich, a taco and burrito from taco bell.I have had the worst carb cravings ever, I havent been able to work out cuz I am a single mom and work full time. I hate myself again! Any advice??

    @ Green- If I drink I stick with Vodka and Diet 7up. I know there is carbonation but there are zero carbs. I have been in the same situation. I either drink or eat my dinner, lol. @Jenn- I am going to Vegas this weekend. Of course there are a ton of guy friends going too and I have to wear a bathing suit. I too bought a tankini but also got a really cute saroung (sp) and it hides the inner thigh yuck. I also have been shopping like a mad women. I am so happy to be able to fit in normal clothes. @NGMA- You look awesome and it is good to "see" you!

    LADIES!!! Hello! Green, thank you for the shout out! I have been going thru the divorce, sold my house and moved all this last few weeks. I have been swamped and I know I have been MIA! Well, I am 4 pounds till goal and have my tummy tuck and breast augmentation scheduled for July 2nd!! So excited.Dr said that after the tummy tuck I will probably be 10-15 pounds lighter even. This is the best thing that I have ever done and do not regret a single second of it. I am a little flabby on my inner thighs and arms but all in all I dont care about it that much. I can eat a little more- Sometimes. Other times I still have tons of restriction. Its weird. I still puke every so often but I am used to it and am learning my limit. You all look amazing!!! Have you posted before and afters??

    I am a size 14 1/2 a 16 is too big. I have been this size for some time now as well. I thought that was good? No? What were your beginning measurements? Will he do a RNY when you are this small?

    Hello Judy, my name is Krista and I too am a scale-o-holic! LOL Artsong- I think you look great BTW! I have decided to be excited on how I feel not how I look. After all, it has only been 6 months!! Allthough the scale will move slower, it will move...I hope. Maybe it is metabolic? I know I am on metformin as I mentioned in the past for PCOS. I swear more of us have it than we think.

    Green- Do you have a cute Georgian accent?? I will have to read your posts that way. I too weigh in naked every morning before i get into the shower. I am so obsessed with the scale. The weird thing is I have been working out for the last month and the first couple of weeks I dropped weight but now I am not budging. I am hoping that the scale moves soon.

    I know once I cut the carbs out and stuck w mainly protein I started dropping. Carbs and me do not do well. Now, I do have fruit and certain veggies and beans. I just stay away from the bread, chips, crackers, etc. And strenght training is absolutley necessary!

    Artsong- I was really stuck at the same weight for a few weeks and I was fed up. I work out 4 days a week jogging/walking (omg, yes I can jog again yippee) I do it for 30 minutes and then I do tons of crunches. I feel sooo much better too. I have stuck with the soft diet that we had in the beginning, yogurts, string cheese, salad, chicken breast, egg etc. I have VERY little carbs and it is working. Hopefully I dont stall again any time soon. I try and get all my water in but that is very hard. BEGINNING the work out routine is the hardest. Once you do it a couple of days you will be more motivated. NGMA- Glad you are feeling better. Green- Thank you, I feel and always have felt that about you too!!

    GREEN!! You look AMAZING! Miralax is awesome unleess you need a stimulant which Senecot works wonders! Thank you for the hit up on MFP. I am doing VERY well with my weight loss. I started exercising and OMG I can not beleive how much weight I am dropping now. I am between a 12-14 and I have NO clothes which sucks and is awesome all at the same time. I am still losing hair at 5 months out. NGMA- HELLO! I hope you feel better! My entire family got it and it lasted a couple of weeks and it stunk! JENN- You are almost to Onderland! Awesome job. Artsong/Rybecca- You girls also look great! I love seeing the updated profiles. I have to do mine soon! Love you girls. Forgive me for not being on here more often. I am seperating from the hubby ( and no not because the weightloss, because he is an A-HOLE, lol) and I have a lot going on. I miss you all though

    Jordan- Have you ever wondered if they made your sleeve too big? Is that even a possibility? I know that even now I can only eat maybe 1/4 of what I used to eat otherwise I throw up. Unless I eat chips and cookies and believe me those go down just fine. NGMA- I definitely feel it within myself to get up and do it! 45 minutes on the bike is awesome! That is exactly what I need to do!
