*slim*

There is no way I could ever look like that!

Apparently, my mother was reading my mind about what I thought I looked like when I was younger. She just brought me a picture from when I had to be about 15. I couldn't weigh more than 110. I look like a stick with no boobs!

:smile2::lol:

I am so sorry punkster. I have been there. I keep going there. When it is time for me to have a fill, I start to lose and gain the same pounds. You might try to either drop your calories for a couple days or up your exercise for a couple of days to shake you out of that. The couple of times that I have tried that, it seems to finally make me drop the pounds that I kept losing/gaining. Also, I have found that even though I don't want to eat like I am on a diet, I am going to have to do it more often than not to lose. I do ok for a little while eating what my family eats, but then it just starts creeping back up. I wish that I had a better answer for you.

I should have asked that question before I bought these. You are right. They do taste like cardboard. yuck! I looked at my health food store, they have all but sesame. They have another brand that has a sesame. I may try that. Today- b-coffee w/splenda, lean shaved ham, pepper cheese slice s-yoplait light l-chabani strawberry greek yogurt, naked juice d-2 wasa, last of the smoked salmon dip

I tell you, if I ever get to your weight, I will dance around my house nekkid for days!

Sorry, I was typing from my iPhone. I can't type on those little things. I am no where near 5 foot 6. I am 5 foot 1.5 inches. The sad part is, I claimed I was 5'4" for years. The nurse at my doctor's office just laughed and made me get measured. It was funny to find out I was no where near as tall as I thought. I am just a little taller. I have always had lots of extra padding around my hips and butt, so even when I was slim, I had to wear larger pants to fit my butt. I wore small tops and 6 pants. I doubt I will ever get there again. At this point, I still weigh more than I did the day before I gave birth!:smile2: I just don't see me ever being 110 pounds.

Why are you feeling lost punkster?

Hi BBK! I wonder too. She put me at 110 pounds as a goal. That like a skeleton with boobs! I am 5 1/2. I know I am not the tallest, but 110 just seems too slim. Basically what I did. I weighed about 115 when I graduated high school. I added about 10 pounds to that for my age (even though I can't fathom actually getting to 125). I totally agree! Hopefully, Murphy's Law will leave you alone! Morning everyone!

Random pjtp-I went to the doctor today(gp). There was a stand in doctor(not sure where my normal doctor was today). The stand in doctor basically told me that i need to lose more weight for my height than i planned. She basically added about 15 more pounds needed to get me to the correct weight. Did any of your doctors give you a weight to shoot for? My surgeon didn't give me a goal weight and neither did my regular GP.

G4E- i am so sorry you are going thru so much. Do you have any progams near you that help with rx when you are having difficulty paying? I know here, there is a program that is paid for by the drug companies. Heartfire-i know that fingernail hurts like heck. I have only done that once, but it was enough. Ebony-sorry to hear about your friend. Why exactly did having the gastic bypass cause them to have to open surgery? I am confused (not that it takes much). Ebony/Beth-any day now you both will be telling us about your new jobs. Fanny-sorry about the job and the home sell. I am sure the job situation will be better once you really get into it. Luluc-i had my home loan approval before i ever went looking,too. I didn't want to look for more house than i knew i was going to be able to get. Snakes-hate them all

Today b- nothing(fasting doctor's appointment) l-4 shrimp, .5 cup salmon dip on 2 wasa d-.5 cup salmon dip on 1 wasa (i bought multi-grain, do the others have any taste at all?)

Happy Birthday early luluc! I would love a surprise party myself. DH cooked for me instead. Of course, he didn't know that my mother had cooked for me as well (neither did I until the next day). Of course, she didn't cook anything band friendly, so it worked out for me that he cooked. Have fun playing outside Tap!

Hope you are able to get there too. Happy Father's day to any fathers! I hope everyone has a blessed day!

Good morning everyone! Happy Father's day Plain (and any other father that happens to read)! Still no word from Ebony? I hope everyone has a very happy, healthy Sunday!

Today- b-coffee w/splenda, yoplait light yogurt l-instant potato soup d-4oz sauteed mushrooms, red onion, and sprinkle of asiago s-smoked salmon dip on a wasa crisp bread

I do think Friday was her off day. I just hope that this quiet from her is just that she is busy getting things in order for her new job.

Holy cow! I hadn't even thought about that. Carrie, you just made my day!

Well, i was able to eat the meat from a chicken thigh. I also had a couple bites of veggies and rice. It all went down fine. I guess i was worrying for nothing. You all have a great weekend!

Today- b-coffee w/splenda, boiled egg white, instant potato soup l-.5cup bean soup d-chicken thigh(no skin) cooked in the crockpot w/soup mix, couple bites spinach, couple bites rice

That is awesome news! That is what I was wondering.

Morning Tap! Happy Friday Everyone!

I wouldn't buy the manual. Here is the link from that page for the plan Surgical Weight Loss 5 Day Pouch Test. I just followed the plan listed without actually buying any book. It really does help when you aren't sure if you need a fill. As far as the almonds, I have seen them at other grocery stores, so hopefully they won't be too hard to find. Have a great day.

The pouch test is really done before a fill to determine if you really need one. Here is the link Surgical Weight Loss 5 Day Pouch Test. It is basically a modified version of the liquid diet from after surgery. It helps to shrink the pouch.
