Beach Lover

I missed it last week so I am watching it now. I wouldn't be surprised if he is gone on her update! Can you imagine how that little girl feels watching all of that negativity when her mother is doing something so positive for herself!

I think he was probably a big part of her gaining so much more weight!! He is so emotionally abusive and I truly hope she can stand up to him! I just want to shove a taco up his other end........ass clown!!

She lost 28 pounds!!!!! I can't believe he said "Be careful what you ask for"!!! I want to punch him also!! I hope a dog bites him in the ass!!

Are you taking an acid reducer? Call your doctor and ask him about this if you aren't. Many times acid will mimic a hunger that can't be filled. You will eat and then within a half hour your stomach hurts and you swear you are hungry all over again. This happened to me one day which was very unusual because I am never hungry. I would eat and before you knew it I was hungry again to the point of it hurting. Then I realized I forgot to take my Zantac and within 15 minutes of taking it I was feeling so much better. If you are taking an acid reducer you may need to switch brands or the script your doctor prescribed. We all react differently to acid reducers.

You are looking fabulous!! Way to go!!!

Does any one know where you can buy sugar free caramel syrup for coffee. If you have tried it can you give me a review on it. I am trying to replicate the Dunkin Donuts Lite Caramel Latte and am wondering if this would work for it. Thanks!!!

Can you share that no flour sugar free cookie recipe. Pretty please!

I think we all go through a resentment period after the 6 month mark. We have been good for so long and the old habits want to creep back in. I too have been fighting the resentment. I haven't gained but my weight has slowed down drastically. I keep reminding myself that I really have to stay with this way of life because it is what my body responds to even though my mind wants to go another way. It sounds like you have started the path back to a clean way of living and if you stay with this wonderful group your support will be there. Thanks for posting your feelings because you are really voicing the same worries and concerns of many. It helps to hear others are struggling and working past it which in turns gives others like myself a stronger resolve. You can do this!! You have already lost a tremendous amount of weight and I know you will get past this!

My surgery was on June 7, 2013 and my weight loss has now slowed down to about a pound a week. Try getting in all your Protein and Water. Watch those carbs especially with grazing and eating protein bars. You might also look into the 5:2 diet. A lot of people have had success with jump starting their weight loss with this. You have done terrific with losing 79 pounds!! Hang in there!!

I am so happy that everything has worked out for you! Pray avails much and it is true that if God has it in your plans it will happen! Best of wishes to you!

Stay strong! I am sure you can switch keep in contact with your insurance company perhaps they can advise you what to do to keep all the paperwork rolling in the right direction. Best of luck to you!!

Well it's 1 pound but still a loss. They weren't kidding when they said the loss slows down after 6 months!! Was 211 Now 210

Congratulations on your surgery! I hope your nausea passes quickly and you will feel so much better once you get home!

Do you mix anything with it?

Good for you!!! You are going to really love your sleeve and new life!

I think you should give your recipes a try then! Let me know how they turn out! Sounds like a good idea!

Congratulations on your success and your new marraige! You look beautiful!!

You are looking absolutely fantastic!! Way to show us how it is done!

Why not just drink Smart Water? It is water with electrolytes in it already. You can also get this at Whole Foods under there brand. I drink it all the time. It's a good way to avoid the calories and carbs. Good luck to you!

Sounds like a bladder infection to me (UTI). Drink as much Water as you can handle and call your doctor before it gets worse. If you start peeing blood then you need to go to the urgent care for meds. I am definitely not a doctor but have had these nasty boogers before! Good luck to you!!

Guess I should update myself as well. I have lost 82 pounds since surgery which was June 7th. I was wearing a 22/24 and now I am a 14 and L or XL in the tops. I am very happy with how things have turned out and looking forward to reaching my goal. I have noticed that the weight loss has slowed down a little but hasn't stopped. I am positive that I will reach my goal. Anyone else notice a slow down with the weight loss?

hmmm...I take melatonin to aid my sleep, a habit I picked up when I worked 3rd shift at the Juvenile Jail. Maybe it puts me out too much and digestion is halted. Where have I been? I have been frolicking hither, thither, and yon, spreading gmanbatness on all unsuspecting recipients of nonsensical folderol. How you been? I take a ton of melatonin every night which doesn't cause this. I think perhaps it might be the time of night you are eating before bed. Have you noticed if it happens when you haven't eaten late?

My doctor didn't give me a goal so I set my own which will put me in a normal bmi.........Which is what mattered to me.

Great then don't fix want isn't broken!

I went to World Market and bought the sf vanilla, sf caramel, sf salty caramel and accidentally bought the regular hazelnut so I will probably give that one away to someone. Do you have some good recipes for coffee. I am just learning them. This morning I tried half and half with the caramel and vanilla that was pretty good.
