  1. Just got done with dinner. Now time to eat. Tried a new recipe Seafood Brodetto that I had at Olive Garden, tossed salad, garlic bread and watermelon for dessert. Oh and homemade mint tea!

  2. This is so true! I have seen many women do this and lose out on life long friendships!M.A.G.: What do you think of the images of Black women's friendships in media where we're pitted against one another, often over men?M.A.: The sister bonds have been weakened. I tell young women that it's not smart to put your ace girlfriends to the side because you have a man in your life. Like my mother would say, "Men come and go. But your women friends are always there for you." Even if you and he are together for 50 years, you still need your sisters.

  3. All I can say is God knows my heart and no weapon formed against me shall prosper. Amen!1

  4. I am so happy at the progress I am making with my weight loss. I have struggled with my weight after giving birth to my daughter 21 yrs ago. I have finally made the right decision for "me" weight loss surgery. My heaviest weight before surgery was 335, my surgery weight was 322 and now I am at 305.6. If you count my heaviest weight until now I am down total of 29.4; SW until now 16.4.

    Band to Bypass discussion

    So glad I read this thread because I have been experiencing the same thing since my band to gastric bypass. I was reading other threads and feeling down because they were losing so fast. Now I don't feel bad with the 1 to 2 pound loss a week. Thanks for sharing!

    Post Op March 2014

    Went for my 2 wk post op and was told I could start introducing soft foods. I could try fish as long as I could break with a fork, chicken, tuna, could have fruit as long as it is cut toddler size n veggies as long as it was soft. Also remember to chew n chew. I am learning when I am full, keeping a log, making sure to get my protein in but the water is the hardest. I am averaging a 1-2 lb weight loss a week.
