Did my 25 today

did my 20 today

I'm in again better do it now! Ok done 20 sec....with a 30 pound rider on my back!!! The Neigh wasn't getti up in and got a kick in the guts for it! ugh might hafta do it when my little jockey isn't in the room!

Oh yea!! I found it! You know I have been waiting to join lol I did my 20

Thank you GG!! Were both super excited! Although there is another family member who will also adopt her also so we all need to get the details out and start our process. How I would love to have a little "Lily" baby girl to spoil....

Ohhh how thought provoking.....!! I'm leaving behind 101 pounds! I'm truly a new me. I'm leaving behind old habits that I have had for 20 years! I'm leaving behind all the money spent on my addiction to fast food and sweets! (Wish I could get that back to buy new clothes) I'm leaving behind the feelings of embarrassment at being out in public. ( I truly wouldn't get outta a car and go into the store unless I had too, which is why I loved fast food) I'm leaving behind a horrible attitude towards people in general. I'm leaving behind a few unsupportive best friend/friends that when I think back weren't much of friends any way. I'm leaving behind lots of old feelings of hate towards myself. I'm leaving behind who I used to be! (Because I want to start a new) I'm gaining a new life, a new out look, new recipes and a new way to keep myself and my family healthy. I gain a new vigor for life and a way to make it how I want!! And if were really lucky a new baby girl if the adoption goes through. (It's just been brought to our attention that a young family member had a baby she doesn't want/plan on taking care of. We cant have kids on our own (naturally). We did have our son via IVF almost 3 years ago. So this would be such a blessing for us! I'm leaving behind so much and learning/gaining so much more! Here's to 2014 being a new beginning! CHEER'S

ok goal for V-day is.....165. CW 177

On the tool bar at the top go to Forms gastric sleeve and about half was down you'll see a title Veterans. Just like you posted in tell your gastric sleeve surgery story there is a one for people a year or more out. Hope that helps

Check out the Veteran's Form's I know they can help you!

OMG that looks like heaven!! I love me some sea food all the time However I think the shrimp might have made me swell some. I had puffy eyes this morning. But I'm not sure tho. I'll have to try shrimp again next week and see if it happens again. Oh and my almost 3 year old ate a whole zucchini boat to himself. That must mean something!!! lol

Dinner...this is amazing!!! Taco Stuffed Zucchini Boat

Shoot I missed the pic on here!! Beautiful!!!

YOU ROCK WOMAN!!! Lets see a pic!!!

The recipe is on skinnytaste.com. It's where I get a lot of my meals and on GG's blog!! I'm really loven trying new meals.

Mmm I need to learn how you made the coconut shrimp! Looks so good. I forgot to post but had tilapia with tortilla lime crust and steamed cauliflower. It was so much easier than I thought! The sauce is sooo yummy too. You know where I got my recipe lol same as always....And I so wanna try tilapia so bad mmmm might hafta fit it in somewhere soon!!

Dinner... Skinny Coconut Shrimp, Green salad with Balsamic Vinegar and oil dressing

That was so sweet! Love your story!!

This fit's in with me. For me at 32 I was put on birth control 2 months ago (after my anger post). I've been good ever since. But I find myself in space so to speak a lot. I know it's not exactly the same but it deals with hormones. Thought it could be on some same level....IDK

MMM stats 32, 5'6 Feb 13' HW 278 Surgery wt Aug 21st, 249 Current wt 179 Makes me 4 months post

Mistysj, That looks amazing!! I had baked broccoli with dinner tonight! I find baked tastes so much better to me now a days. Baked with olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper. Plus there a little crispy too! yumm

but i suspected controlling your diet is really where the success comes from. I havent started exercising yet because i get tired really easily, but i will start even if it's only five minutes at first. I'll keep in mind the low carbs too. I napped every day for the first 2 weeks and to be honest I napped daily before surgery. I never nap now!! I also started walking the day after I got home from the hospital around the cul-de-sack once then twice then to the mail box then farther each day I totally understand being tired. Low carbs are the key for sure for me for sure. At 4 months out I have 1000 cals and 50 carbs a day.

During the first 2 1/2 months I walked 2 miles 6 to 7 days a week. I haven't walked in a while and boy can I tell. I have some plans for this coming year!!

Great question!! For me I struggled with tracking on MFP for a minute. I was afraid when I ate something I knew I shouldn't I didn't want to see it face me. So yes I was afraid....in the beginning before my surgery. Now however I love tracking what I eat. I put the candy pieces I ate last night on there and couldn't quit staring at the damn page!! In disbelief in self disgust and much more. It was my first candy in 6 months and It did taste ok but I did not get the rush I used to when eating my sweets. Tonight however I have no desire to put anything in my mouth. For me was it was a decision I made and not one I'm proud of. I was very happy with myself I didn't touch candy or sweets on Halloween or any other time. I did fail myself and I felt it. But....I'm ok today. Kinda felt like a confession.. However I am not justifying my actions I know what I did. No slip here!! Just a weak moment for me after 6 months Thanks for the read and making me thing lady!
