Cloe, now you get it Yoda, that's awesome! I haven't done my measurements in so long (maybe 3 months ago) ... I never enjoyed doing measurements, since there was never very much difference at all. Maybe doing it this time around, and being such a long time since, i'll see more of a change. I'll do them on the 29th, cause that will be my 6 month anniversary! oh yeah... again Cloe :peep:

Woooo! Good news! What have you been doing, or cut out? and yeah, yeah.... fricken, that's what I meant.

Yay Yoda! I'll be sending you good vibes

Cloe... think about it this way: 60 lbs in 4 months is F' ING AWESOME! You've averaged 3.5 lbs a week! :hug:

OMG... I thought about things like that... for about 2 seconds! I can't believe her tried it! LOL

It really is worth a try... you get 2 for $50. Give one away for Christmas! I haven't tried anything else in it yet, but I was thinking about this 'stuffed soup' recipe they have in the book. I think all it is is a can of Chunky Chicken Corn Chowder, and stove top stuffing... I don't know why, but I've been craving stove top stuffing, and I love that soup, so.... LOL

Sorry andree... you did ask in the general area, I just saw that. You should read through old posts though... really... there is TONS of info about going to Mexico. People ask the same questions you are, everyday.

(p.s. andree, this is primarily an American message board, although there are lots of people from Canada and elsewhere)

How about Mexico VS Canada? Andree, you should ask this, or look it up elsewhere on the board... unless you are specifically wondering which Canadians went to Mexico. Use the search feature, and just type in Mexico. You can read about all the good experiences and reasons TO go to Mexico, as well as bad ones, and reasons not to. You also need to research more Dr's, cause there a quite a few to chose from there... you'll be able to find all that info elsewhere on the board.

andree, if you're seriously considering going to Mexico, you NEED to make sure you'll still have access to fills and aftercare when you get home. Would you fly back to Mexico each time?

So, I ordered THIS sucker, literally 6 months ago. I ordered it the night before surgery... I saw it on a infomercial, and thought it was the greatest thing ever. Well, I finally used it tonight. I took 2 eggs, beat them with a little milk, put some sliced havarti and a slice of chicken on top, followed by a glob of salsa. Cooked for 8 minutes, and VOILA! It was ok. I'm definitely gonna try other things in it. The portions are a perfect size for me... in fact I couldn't finish all of what I made. You can make single serving cakes! Anyways, just thought I'd share! (and see! I do eat stuff!)

Aww... but I have to drive the first 13 hours? No fair!

Thanks guys And Yoda, don't worry... you set me straight

Ooooh, I'm excited! I actually bought a single 'can' of Ensure the other day, but haven't tried it yet. It's only 13g of Protein and like 300 calories!

If you click on my name, for example... (hehe, I hope you don't though!), from the drop down list, chose "View argon's profile", once you're there, chose "Add Argon to Your Ignore List". That should do the trick! Substitute 'argon' with the offenders name

a chick flick? I don't think so. My boyfriend LOVED it too. I think *other* guys would find it funny and good as well.

Whoah! Did it really take you that long? I just got unflavoured and chocolate, I think... maybe a strawberry sherbert. 20g of Protein per serving, right? Did you get unflavoured? Is it really unflavoured? Is it gritty? Mandi

The actual spreadsheet is way cooler... it shows the difference in your weight, and BMI as you go along.. and it also charts it. If you guys want, I can see if there's a way for me to attach the Excel 'template' I used to a post... if not, I could email it to you. You gotta have 'Excel' though. And thank you (I just tried, it won't let me attach the file. If you'd like it, PM me your address and I'll email it to you!)

Awww... Jude, she DOES sound like a cutie! Keep updating us on everything, I look forward to it! Good luck, and hey... a pound is a pound, right? It all helps

Good luck guys!!!!

4.6lbs, babes. I hope you guys are amused by my losses... I don't want any one hating me. I really should post for you guys how my weeks have went up to now. (cause it hasn't always gone so well) (apparently I can copy my #'s from the tracking spreadsheet I use, so here it is:) 284 272 269.5 269 269 264 259.4 260 257 257 257 256.6 254.6 253.4 252 249.6 247.6 246.2 245.6 246 243.4 242.2 241.6 242 233.6 231.4 229 225.4 220.8 The very first weight was from a week before I started Optifast. :hug: Mandi

I know I'm not getting enough protein, so I broke down and ordered some samples of Unjury. Hope I get it soon!

It varies too... I've seen as low as $7000 US. They all seem to be 'all inclusive' things too. Like, your surgery, airfare, hotel stay, etc. A little odd... but a cool idea. We should have something like that here too, for the out-of towners.

Hey Yoda, I see 50lbs creeping up! WOOO!! You'll get there

by the way guys, you should all see Little Miss Sunshine. It is AWESOMELY good!
