I think that's pretty realistic and would totally love being there. When he asked what was my goal I said 135 so we went there he sound he could see me getting to 120-130 but idk I seem to keep sticking in the 180s now

We are 1980 editions lol!!!!! July 15th is my 3rd anniversary. Nice to meet ya more Amanda!!

I'm gonna need to find a zone!! White choc macadamia sounds like heaven

That's great! I struggled with protein the most I would get the fluids in usually no prob it was the food intake I had a hard time with. Thankfully it did seem to all kinda work it's way out. Was scared with work or traveling. Do u like sugar free Popsicles? That counts as your fluids too

I wish I could trade with u and give u a break for a bit. 7 weeks out and nothing really seems to make me go. Have u had bowel issues like ibs before? Stay hydrated cause I'm sure that's very taxing on your system.

I am not sure I can adequately explain how I'm totally feeling right now but I need to just talk it out. Most people would never know just how low my self esteem has been the last several years. I've been ashamed and embarrassed and its even led me to shy away from social events with my husband. He is a attractive fit military member and I always felt I was a poor reflection on him. In my social circle I was the funny girl everyone could count on to be the life of the party. I've just now started to feel shreds of confidence starting to come back. I've described myself for years as looking like I was shaped like humpy dumpty. Maybe I'm being vain but idk how that works still being a chunky girl..I got out of the shower and I saw everything wiggle so bad! From head to thigh. Lose skin all around idk if I could get taken off even if I lost more. I've got a nice chunk to lose still and idk what I was thinking..like the skin sag would miss me..or perhaps I'm young enough I'm gonna snap back. I see the face in the mirror and she looks so familiar but yet without the fat she's a stranger..where did these lines come from? I still have a big roll of fat on my belly and I could pretty much roll the skin under it. I'm ashamed I'm being so vain but I guess it's gonna be another adjustment. My husband was no help and my friend just said how that's what I wanted. Yeah it was and I still do. Just gotta get use to this I suppose.

I'm hoping its gonna come soon! I know how much u are ready for it and I'm hoping your answer is in the way!! We can start a phone tree for u and all of us call em til they give u a date j/k but I'm crossing my fingers u hear soon

Yep and prob painfully so. So that's a good thing!!! So u gonna join our get to know u session me & Krystal have started up? Lol

Thanks! I've turned out pretty well I think sometimes Im the dark Water than runs deep. So u were on the lower spectrum of bmi when u had surgery? I was below 40 at 37 something but with the comorbidities it went straight through with approval after finally submitted. Did they give u the goal weight of 120? I remember u mentioning that number once since we started out about same height and weight.

Yeah it's more scar tissue that forms u would probably feel a lot more constricted upon swallowing. My dr said that's why the diet phases were so strict to not irritate the surgical connections to keep it more supple preventing that scarring.

What has your diet consisted as? I was told I'm not getting enough carbs and its slowing me. Any one particular exercise type that has seemed to work? Sprinkle the thin dust my way girlie!!

Hmm yeah maybe just some lymph nodes. Idk maybe the salt water will help..hope so. I keep allergy issues so some mornings I wake up gargling glass and swallowing golf balls

Ok about me.... Alaina Is my name..mama to a 9yr old boy..married to a active duty Air Force member. Live in FL for the last 4years have nearly reached my 3rd anniversary with my husband who is a wonderful dad to my son thankfully as my ex isn't. I grew up in MS in a very rural farm area. Poverty in childhood has made me strong! I am a LPN and getting geared back up for school soon. I have 2 stepchildren ( out of state)I love but not quiet always relate to. My son had a autism spectrum disorder who keeps me on my toes. I have 2boxers...Hero and Hollie..my really most faithful companions as my husband and son do leave me at times etc but my dogs are my one constant and the ones that have never left me. As I getting older I like more domestic things...quilting in funky fabrics, gardening and growing food, making my own butter and other items...love making goat milk soap. I struggle with low self esteem and desperately want to get over my sleep apnea. My heart yearns to have at least another child but I've had 3 miscarriages the last being in 2010 and never conceived again. I have found thru a tragedy with my mom and sister we have a clotting disorder which is why I've had miscarriages. My sister has brain damage from age 22 after having a quarter sized blood clot hit her brain after bc pills. I'm happy to even have a sister still. Sometimes I'm so goofy and totally random. I'm the comedian of my group usually. I try to be positive and laugh even when I'm not feeling so positive. I love helping people and being creative. I love college sports...mainly sec foot ball and NCAA basketball. I've been described as a cross between southern belle and country girl. I love chocolate! I love comedy and scary movies that freak me out. ......well that's some about me in a nutshell

Wow!! You're a tough cookie! Want u on my side during a crisis!!!

Sinus allergy issues? Salt water gargle maybe see if it helps?

My son is visiting his grandparents for a couple weeks so if I don't check in with y'all and if I'm not at work it's usually just the dogs I have to talk to.

Mine I think only likes me cause I do talk and he doesn't feel he has to lol I find myself randomly checking in here too a lot.
