Janet, What did you say so take in on calories. I can't remeber what you said. I am writing now so I am trying to stay inbetween 1200-1500 is that good? I am usually about 1200-1300 so far. Remember I am over a year out.

Ok I will check it out thanks for the help -
Peas - I remember when Alex was in Kindergarten his teacher sent his table to the bathroom and Alex came right back in the room and moved his behavior clip from smiley face all the way down to the sad face. When the teacher asked what happen he just put his head down and would not look at her. Then another kid came back in crying and it turns out my son was in the stall and the other child knocked on the door and Alex kicked the door open and hit the kid in the head with the door. The teacher brought us in and had Alex tell us what happen he told us but he was so sad looking. The teacher asked him to wait outside why she talked to us and when he left we all cracked up. It was funny but we still had to let him know he did wrong which was hard because he was so cute. We still talk about it today. Remember he is in High School now. Janet, I know I know but I am a coffee addict LOL. At least I admit it. Please forgive me. Actually i love food but sometimes I feel tight and I love to have a hot coffee in the morning. Also thanks for the tips you gave us. Ms Bubba, You are right sometimes you want to feel like you can do as you please like I was thinking coffee not that bad. WRONG oh well I will keep trucking and change stuff around. phyllser, I have a small coffee place by me maybe they will get me SF peppermint or I can get a Cappuccino and then just add it myself but that means i have to carry it with me that would be funny. Apples, I used to make my stuff at home but then I got lazy. :blushing:

I never tried the Torani brand I have bought the Davinci brand though and it is not bad. Maybe I should get a machine. Not know maybe for christmas. -
Hey All, You will be glad to know I am doing much better now my cold has let up. I started writing down my food and let's say I am way over doing it on my calories. I get a peppermint latte a couple of times this week and it was like over 350:ohmy:. And before anyone asks it is not SF and it is not non fat it was my little coffee heaven.:thumbup: I guess I need to re think it. since I always get the big one. Also so many places do not carry the peppermint in SF just vanilla. Oh well back to cooking I know it is late but I worked late today. Keep smiling everyone:biggrin:

So I started logging my food today and let's say whoa. I usually get a peppermint latte a couple times a week and a big one and I found out that was like 350 calories due to it is not non fat and it is not sugar free. I guess i have to do some rearranging because alot of places do not carry sf peppermint just vanilla. oh well what an eye opener. Oh by the way I am doing alot better than i was with my cold so that is good. -

Thanks all for your suggestions everyone. I actually shop at Kroger but never looked for a lower carb yogurt. I will look for it this weekend when I go shopping. When I think about what I lost I am proud of myself but I guess since I have a cold right now and feel crappy all my old way of thinking is coming back to me. The stinking thinking has kicked in big time -

Hey guys, I was just wondering now that we are a year or more out how many calories do you guys stick with? As some of you know from other boards I am struggling and I am starting to write down my foods. But I don'r know what my calorie limit should be? -
Meredith and Rose you guys look great keep up the great work.! Rose~ So sorry your DM and Mom in law are dealing with health issues. Stay strong

Hi everyone, I am totally sick right now with sinus stuff and a very sore throat. So my eating has sucked my excuse to eat bad. (AKA emotional eating) How do you know besides the test how many calories to eat. I don't ever remember my Dr saying even though he probably did. I guess I never paid attention and since I am over a year out I think I need to really pay attention. Also any tips on the best way to journal food written. I really do not have time to do it on a computer since I can't use mine at work for non work stuff. I like a structure and was just wondering what you guys do or have a place i can get a cheat sheet of one. I like the one Charlene mention place to write foods and feelings. Does that one have a name or can you scan a blank page and post it or rmail it to me?

Meredith, Happy Early Birthday :w00t:

I have been banded since 07/02/2008. I have no problems and to be honest I think I have the realize band but I forgot to tell you the truth. I will see if I can find out and get back with you later. Sorry I work all day on a computer and have not felt like even checking my email at home until today. I am usually much better than this :w00t:

Hang in there it will be fine we all have our doubts but this something you really want don't let anyone else's experiences sway you. I like in Oakwood Ga, south of you so when you get back let me know I would love to help you. I have had ups an downs like many on the board but I would not trade it for anything else. This has worked for me. My Dr is Dr Daly at Northside he is awesome. There has been many people on this board that have been to Mexico and has have great success you will be fine. :blushing:

Peas, Your son is so cute. Love his curly hair when he was yonger and he is such a handsome young man now. They grow up so fast. Janet, When I was talking about my car issues last year and that I lost my job that all happened at the same time. But I have been at my current job for almost a year so things were hard but they get better. Meredith, You are only 26 really and have no cable and don't like your cell and hardly any credit cards that is awesome. I fell for the credit cards when I was was in my twentys so I am still trying to recover all that debt I made over the years. I just wanted to say you are way ahead of everyone girl. Smile at yourself :blushing:

You are right getting fat was more fun but being thin is a whole lot better so I can be around for my family. I just wish I was one of those people that grew to love exercise like some. -
Janet, I guess you are on a roll with those bad days. I am sorry about your trouble. It almost sounds like me with about 1 yr ago non stop with car issues between my husband and I. I needed a new transmission and my husband needed a new engine and I lost my job. But now I have to say things are going pretty well knock on wood regarding my car. Hang in girl just remember we all love ya!!
