    Hey just a fat guy! Her name wasn't Charmin, by any chance? She sounds like she might need Flushing away! And I'd come closer to thinking you're a Stud Muffin than what she called YOU!❤

He 365+ SurgiWeight 319 currently 198.9, yep just broke into Onderland. Highest dress size 28-30W, currently sliding from 20 into 18-teens, Yep leaving Plus sizes behind ----FOREVER AND EVER!

MY TESTS HAVE A " By The Way" to almost every one, but what the Hey, I'm still red-headed , alive and kicking. Don't rule me out, I'm still successful and will have my Final Victory!
  6. Trust your Gut, had a motivational memo to that effect, That your Gut knows things your Brain has not yet processed . The old wise person advice " If something seems too good to be true, it usually is'" And your hubs may know instictively there's something rotten there! No it's your very Life, you deserve the Best!
  7. And it just was the thing you needed to enhance the quality of your life! Enjoy being a "FUN" mommy, you really deserve it, in my book.👦&👩

    One vote for my Nutriblend also, just don't let my Crock pot hear, it has seniority after all!❤
  9. Yo Ylime, long long time, no see! Wonderful to have YOU back on board!
  10. They are and look wide-eyed at me like " I can't understand why you're offended? Its only the Truth, after all!" Truth, bull-feathers, they just had no upbringing to quote My Own Country Granny, Grandma Ads. They seem to think I'll be inspired by their constant put- downs--- when I merely die a little inside every time.
  11. Medications often make your mouth dry out, just keep putting your fluids in, you're on the Right Path!

    Yuck artificial sweeteners

    Stevia,monkfruit, agave. I like monkfruit best, stevia close 2nd, agave a little rich for my budget. Now if I was in Arizona, make My own cactus juice, somebody, I believe AZhiker uses prickly pear juice, but alas I'm planted in Central Ohio, fairly big Sugar Beet producers but that went Bye Bye with my surgical slashing day!

    My little trick was to stand next to someone else also weight- blessed, that way we didn't make such a crashing contrast. Now, with 120+ pounds gone, I may get brave enough to not be in a group shot but stand proudly all by myself! Hello Hello New Wonderful Life, I hope you and I may become Good Friends!

    Weight-loss funnies

    Good Way to Not Over-Eat, isn't it!
  20. Mine wouldn't allow starchy vegetable including peas which I would not have considered starchy . Salads,1 meal at or below 300 calories, loved Lean Cuisine and it's cousins, otherwise. fluids , limited and approved fruits and protein shakes. Had my surgery in Columbus Ohio, the home of Abbott Labs so given a gangoozle of Ensure coupons,hey it helps when you're on a Social Security limited budget, really does! I lost 15 pounds on my 1 month Liver- shrinking diet, took my Hepatic Organ from NASH to smooth, sleek and healthy like a Baby calf, so worth the restrictions for the Greater good. And since he Didn't have to use the Industrial- sized liver retractor I didn't have the tummy pain many suffer! And A win- win for all concerned.

    Feeling shitty is 1/2 your body's reaction to the insults done to it in the name of positive health science, 1/4 recovering from anesthesia and 1/4 emotional let- down after summoning enough courage to go through and have your Surgery. Most of us run at a fever- pitch tying up loose ends, making. sure nothing blocks you when you have travelled so far in so many ways to Get Here . Promise, Day by Day you are going to feel better, expect a let-down about 3 days in, 72 hours at. High Emotional Energy is about all one body can stand. For me or was also the day I went home, I ached , was weepy, oh I was glad for my surgery, really I was, but on the surface " Sweet Mother of God, WHAT DID I LET ME IN FOR?" But very soon the Sun will shine, the Bluebirds will sing and the flowers bloom, and your world🌎will be a wonderful new place to live and your future will shine forth! And you will be like me, telling the " Newbees" "You can do it, You really can do it, I've been there and I know! "And to. all them, you will be the Veteran , the Mentor to guide them on their way too! So smile😝, sip,sip, sip, do your "Walkies" be happy you've been this chance, remember not all of us get approved the very time They try and I think you'll do Just Fine!
  22. Now that is One of our former Presidents I would have loved to meet and talk to. If he had 1/2 the sense of humor as his Daughter.Alice Roosevelt Longworth, he would be Fascinating, simply Fascinating! And a plug for my Natal and Still My State, Nicholas Longworth was. once a Congressman from Ohio.
