Head games suck and are cruel... but we have to learn to deal with them. Stop looking. Let me ask you something... How do you feel ? We have to stop taking out that magnifying glass and inspecting b/c your gonna find things your not going to like and will we ever be satisfied? Its all how you feel darling, if you feel great then your gonna look great and it really doesn't matter what anyone thinks "chubby" is. I think you need to talk to others who are going thru the same thing, is there anyone at that group you can talk to? Years ago, I had lost 150 lbs. For some reason I thought I had to be at 130 lbs (I'm 5'10")... the skinny model look ya know. Every time I looked in the mirror all I would see was that 300 lbs woman despite all the comments people were telling me. They were saying I was getting to skinny.... WHO ME?????????? no way. I'm not 130 lbs yet... can't be. My DH never told me I was getting to thin, he just kept saying yeah, you could lose more (well that more was loose skin on my belly and not fat...oy..what did we know). I think if DH told me I was thin enuf, I wouldnt have gotten to where I am now. Anyway, no matter how hard I tried I couldn't get to 130 lbs, so my will gave in and I started gaining it back. 100 lbs to be exact. The thing is, you will never make everyone happy, so the key is to be happy with yourself and realize that you beautiful just the way you are. I will never again look for that pencil thin person again, I just want to be healthy and I know now that my perfect weight is 170 lbs (I was to thin at 150).

Some times the body needs a break. 15 lbs is a good amount of weight, maybe your body is saying WHOAH! Stop! I need time to catch up. Its weird, I'll lose one week and gain the next w/out changing anything. If your at 1200 calories just keep it up and give yourself some time to heal, and remember, its not a race. Good luck !!!

I was hungry from the minute I opened my eyes after surgery. My first thoughts were........ I want a cheeseburger *ouch* I want a cheeseburger *ouch* I want a cheeseburger *ouch.*

Oh Patty, that is horrible just horrible. Both for you and that little sweet girl. What kind of monster would strike a child with a belt...uuuh (some one aught to hit him with a belt @#!_#%_)... that is just so wrong!!! You both have my prayers.... guess I should pray for the father and mother that they don't ever do it again.

Good Morning Sherry, after reading your post all I want to do is slap the crap out of that account manager... of course the pee-pee head (thats being polite) is going to appologize, your boss called his bluff about going to the VP. What an ASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!! And he did mean it how it sounded..he's just covering his butt...I hate people like that. There is no reason to threaten people... When I first started here this one guy sent me an email about something and said in the email that he was going to talk to my boss... well I sent the email back to him and copied my boss on it basically ripping him a new orfis and telling him that he can go to my boss any blasted time he wants... I hide NOTHING from my boss. When my boss read the email she came out and applauded me. I am so quiet and I don't make waves but he hit a nerve threatening me like he did. Your boss sounds cool !!! I'm glad she did what she did....phoooie on that nasty little man. HUGS and have a peaceful day..... you deserve it. JAN !!! its so good to see you...LORDY !!! look at your stats. You go girl whooooooooohoooo. I heard that the program at hackensack was very good, I wish I had the time to do it but I don't. My doc won't fill me b/c he said he doesn't want me losing like a gastric bypass person and from my last visit I was losing. I doubt I have lost anything since then but we'll know friday when I go for yet another attempt at a fill. I can eat anything, I mean anything and as much as I want..... its mentally wearing me down b/c I feel like I have 0 control. I'm losing my willpower and drive to lose weight eating like this.... but... I know.... hang in there. Dianne, sweetness, we all can't blame you for feeling like you do. My gosh girl. But you know... I'm so happy that they can fix it and give you a new one. It will be here and gone before we know it. I'm here if you need to talk... PM me and I'll give you my email addy. Hugs !!! now get some sleep... Pat... no french fries ? well you know something, its kinda good that you can't. The other day my veggie wrap came with chips, which I didn't eat but my DD's hotdog came with steak fries...which I ate all of them and it went down w/no problem.... kinda sucks... When will we ever be happy LOLOLOL !!!!! Cindy Cindy bo bindy, fe fi fo mindy CINDY!!! how did you do at the doc's yesterday? Are you feeling any better today? Beanie gurl, bet your melting away with the no carbs and exercising.. BRAVO !!! Don't even think about surgery until your there... I wasn't nervous until that very day. The worst part was walking into the surgery room... I looked back at my DH and said "WTF am I doing to myself" and I started crying.... I'm such an ass now that I think about it because it wasn't that bad and I'm happy now that I did do it. We all get nervous and have 2nd thoughts...its called being human. Now go to Walmart and buy me something pretty...I mean buy yourself something pretty and get your mind off of things. I'm here for you too.,....and you know where to find me. Patty, I'm glad you went out with your friend.... I need to do the same thing. I never want to go out w/out my DD but I know I need to. Its hard isn't it. What kinda good buys did you get garage saling? You know whats fun... go to the rich sections in town and go garbage picking :Banane23: for some reason it always makes me feel sneaky LOLOL!!!! One man's trash is another's treasure. Betty boop....whats shakin...any news from the job market? Okay let me get out of here. I have to run to the pet store and get fish filters and then to who know's where else... I just need to get out. TTYL......... ********SMOOCH*********

Angie.... my Angie... Ya gonna leave us hanging? We're worried...how are you feeling?
