Hello guys and gals.....I need HELP>>>...my eating is ...well ok I will call it out of control......Im still searching for a nutritionist to help me learn this new life that I have decided to get on board with...but no luck yet....but I need easy stuff......I dont really cook and dont have a lot of time either to cook....so can you guys give me some stuff that will give me some variety...I cant afford to get another fill for a couple of months and plus I dont think I may need one, just need to focus on what im eating...... UGGGHHHH...i feel sooo frustrated about this....I feel like Im not doing this right...and hate it......I want to loose again..... I work hard to get in my water....and I have the exercising down to a pat...with a trainer as well,,,,its my eating I need help with.... Please anything

ok...added yall...but nerdpunk...couldnt find you???

Well I am a member of Fitness Connection...and Love it....I felt the same way about what people would think of me there...but when I see people like me...I think good job!! I also got me a personal trainer and love every minute of it.......

im on my space too! http://www.myspace.com/txblue_eyedqt

yeeeahhhh...i finally did the water.........Hope everyone is doing good today!! Still not posting weight...actually Im going to weigh tonight to see what I am.........Im thinkin no to a loss and no to a gain, but....I will get my butt in gear soon......still working out so we'll see.......... Congrats to everyone on weigh in day....lost or no gain.....keep your heads up and stay strong..."We can do it"

WOW.....100lbs in six months!! Im down 86lbs in 1 1/2......my goal was 130lbs lost....so im still working a 1 1/2 later.....that does seem much, but I guess we are all different....I know Im willing to learn to eat better but Im not going to cut all the good stuff out completly..if so we wouldnt need the band......you have to learn moderation for sure....I know I dont eat like I did pre-band, but I also dont always do protein and veggies....

Well for me...I was just a junk food eater/bad eater......I never ate too healthy....it was always fast food is quicker in my life....but now...even though im still learning the whole eating healthier part...the band has helped me a TRENDMENDOUS amount...I have lost aprox.86 pounds and now I work out everyday(5days) and have a personal trainer 3 days a week....plus I feel better about myself....trust me you do have to learn the "healthy habbits" but I can almost bet we all stray every now and then and will eventually but the band will keep you in control in my opinoin....no matter what just remember it a "Tool" for us to use to Help us not do it for us.....It definitly is a learning process no matter who you are........

Hello all, Just wanted to get some input on the types of Protein bars you do if any? Please let me know your favorite and what you would compare them to... any help is appreciated... thank you

Happy Birthday!!! Enjoy your day.........

Happy Happy Birthday to YOUUUU.... Have a great one!

WOWWWW..... you look awesome!! congratulations..... I too lovveee 4-wheeling...dont own one YET...but I will......after i pay off this surgery.....LOL....the WLS beat out the 4-wheeler!!!

WELCOME....to the "other side"........You will love it here.....I hope you have a speedy recovery and will keep you in my thoughts.....

Are they located by the protein bars and vitamins???

well for me I dont run, but I LOVE the ELIPITCAL machine, its as close to running as i come to ....but it defintily kicks your butt as good as running will.......

GO STRAIGHT TO TEQUILLA!!! LOL Im kidding....I too am young and go out occasionally....ok every weekend...but I try to keep under a certain amount of alcohol when I do drink it...I dont always win this battle but the only solution is for us to stop drinking it!!! LOL...I know it seems hard, but in the end we will be the ones that are looking good.....so my advice....dont know if it is good advice or will help but stay away from the alcohol monster.......or at least try to cut WAY back..... Try a vodka and diet sprite.......thats what i drink...I can drink those and the carbonation doesnt bother me........

Thanks Everyone......

go Susan, shake your booty, go Susan!!!! Im so very proud of you!!!! keep up the FABULOUSO WORK!!!

Well I would be interested in doing another one, I had a good time shopping and sending as well as recieving. This was my first exchange on here and I was fortunate enough to have no problems. I do agree with the fact that before you sign up please stop and think about others and how you would feel participating in this and not recieving something back.....you should want to participate fully and 100%...... I feel aweful for those that did not recieve..Im sorry to hear that some were forgotten.....
