    I hope everyone had a great Love day yesterday. I had a great day after all, my DH brought me a doz of multi colored roses, and giant red heart ballon, a sexy card and my favorite a gold beaded necklace to my job. I was surrounded by sweets at home from all the treats my boys got from school AND we go to Church last nite and MORE treats were given to us, more chocolates, cookies and chips, WHAT are these people trying to do to me.:faint: Of course, I have all this stuff at home which will be with us for a while, hopefully my 4 men at home will take care of it:tired

    Awwh Josette:think I'm really sad that you are depressed and about your marriage, I will say a prayer for you. It's hard to stay focus on your eating when you're depressed, but I do know that eating junk and gaining weight makes you even more depressed is what I have experianced. That stuff you ate last nite is comfort foods, force yourself to eata good portion of protein first, and if you still have cravings for the junk eat salsa with pork rinds, or sf fudgepops, or a bowl of Special K. I have a sweet tooth at this very moment with all this V-day candy bag someone has put on my desk, I put it out of my site. I made myself some tea with equal. I feel much better now, I think that will be your key to eating comfort foods, try to find an alternative food choice. Its all in one step at a time to get back on track. My Mother almost died a few months ago, and I really had to focus to stay on track. I did eat some comfort foods, but was like once a week. Stay around to get love and support.

    Hair Loss/Wigs

    I wouldn't order one, I suggest you go to your local wig shop, we have several in our city, we call them the "hair store":heh: Because in person you can try them on, there are alot of different colors and styles. Have fun, I just went to the hair store last nite to buy a hair quick weave wig. I still have a full head of hair, haven't lost any yet, but I just like wearing the wig:phanvan

    Everyone that I know not just the family are saying how great I look and what a wonderful job I'm doing. I've had about 8 people to tell me that I am their inspiration, that's really hard for me to believe sometimes. This is truly a new experiance that I never even thought about happening. One young lady at Church said she did not know who I was from behind, and she actually started crying:think She really touched my heart:cry Everyday someone talks to me about my weight and new look. It's my coworkers, supervisors, friends, family, Church friends, I'm telling you everyone. The funny part is that I still weigh 288 what's gonna happen when I reach 200:omg: Sometimes I would like to talk about other issues with people like I use to but the main topic is my weightloss, and by the time we finish that subject either I have to go or them:tired Anywayz it's all good. I have been buying some new clothes just a few pieces here and there that is on clearance. Just wait your time is just around the corner;) But I'm sure you have already been getting it cuz you're lost almost a 100.

    Avilla you did great at Red Lobster, when I went in January I ordered the ceasar salad with extra dressing and ate FOUR tops off the garlic biscuits. Now if I would've had me some syrup I would have eaten the remaining of the biscuits, well as much as the band would've allowed me:heh: I did turned down the b-day cake that I was offered.

    Hey Sarg, lately I've been having a protein shake for dinner because whenever I eat a protein dinner I stuffed for about 3-4 hours and am feeling quite uneasy, it's like I can't do anything but nurse my belly. :faint: Which I can' afford to do at home in the evenings with my boys and DH I have too much to do. I really wanted a grilled chix salad last nite for dinner while they were eating their stuff crust supreme pizza from pizzahut, but I changed my mind and did the protein shake. I'll have that salad for lunch today so by the time dinner rolls around the protein shake will hold me until the next morning. I'm also drinking more water than usuall.

    Thanks Time2Live, you really touched on a few things there, I remind myself too, that it's just food. That it will be there when I've gotten off most of this weight. I tend to go ahead and have that bowl of Cereal or sweet treat too, when I can't hold out any longer. I still feel bad about it but it is getting better, learning to have a healthier version of the treat that I want, plus drinking alot more water. Thanks for the words of wisdom:) Congrats on your weight loss:clap2:

    Hi kareyquilts and thanks. I really don't have any secrets to yell ya. This past week I really watched what I ate and drinked. Which I drinked more Water and sf water drinks than anything else. I stuck to mainly Protein with small amounts of nonstarchy veggies. I actually did not do much of a workout this past week because my DH had to work all types of hours this past week so I had to stay home with our boys and do the mommie thing. Usually I get to the gym about 3-5 times a week with 45 min of cardio and weight training. I just hope to maintain that loss, because I'm afraid it might have been water weight that was released because I did do alot of drinking and going to the bathroom:confused: I guess I'll have to wait and see what the scale says next Sat.2-17.
