Yoda

HEY!!! I saw that!!! LOL. Okay, really gone now!!! hehe

One month is my preference....then I can change my personal challenge month by month kinda deal. *hands Cloe a fire extinguisher*

Alrighty then....I'm buffalo bound in a few hrs (when I get back from work). Y'all have a fantastic weekend. Be good (and yes, that means you too, Mandi and Cloe!). Behave! :nervous

okay, YIKES...if this is a fall 3 month thing, I may have to consider re-vamping my challenge/goal. No WAY I will deprive myself of chips for 3 months straight!! I can maybe say I'll have them twice a month or something. (Keep in mind...that when I do have chips...it is just a small amount ....like the size of one of those small bags).

'tis the sex makin' ya hungry!

I see you spoke with Nisrine, Kim....that is great!

LOL @ Saul.....I ain't a gambler in that sense!!!! I know my downfall and vices so I stay as far away from those machines as possible!!

That is no small NSV Cloe!!! YEEEHAAAAA WAY TO GO!!!!! :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

oh CRAP!!! Mr. Yoda just read my personal challenge/goals for Aug and HE said that "chips" also includes "cheezies & ringolos". Of course, I beg to differ.....Mr Yoda just said, "My own council I shall keep"....(drats to him!) WHAT DO YOU THINK???? is it the same as chips? *sigh* ahhhh, never mind....if I'm completely honest with myself I KNOW that "chips" includes those things. Okay....I will amend my #1 to include cheezies and ringolos. Okay, now I've made an almost next to impossible challenge for myself. ssssssh don't tell Mr Yoda...but that means cupcakes are okay!!!! hehehehe.

Okay...my goals/personal challenges for Aug will be as follows: 1. No chips for the month of August (this will be VERY difficult for me) .... "Strong with the Dark Side, this place be" 2. Lose a total of 8 pounds It will be a challenge considering that I need a fill and I can't get it until 25 Aug.....

That is the trick Argon...for exercise: to find something you love (or at least like) doing...then it isn't a chore!

DUUUUOOOOOH!!! *smacks self upside the head*...LMAO...I MEANT to say 1-2 lbs a WEEK not a month!!! LOL Thanks for pointing that out Amourette and Ericka!!! hehe....1-2 lbs a month....EEEEGADS!!!!

I gotta say..I didn't find Optifast that bad at all (I did that about 3 or 4 yrs ago). My husband (chef) did some AMAZING flavourful things with the optifast!

That is tooooo funny!!!! ummmm Argon...is that 20 lbs in ONE day?! LMAO Slight correction....nosireebob!! I did not say I wanted to sexercise...THAT was MR. Yoda....n'est pas moi!!! GOOD GOD WOMAN!!!! Don't give him any ideas!!!

if you are unsure kim...ask Nisrine. Do a list of questions for her...and then call up (or e-mail her) and ask.

Nothing else helps much with PCOS people to lose weight....so banding is a last ditch effort. It seems to have worked with others who have PCOS.

Be careful tho Kim...do what TLBC tells you...NOT what other ppl's docs told THEM. I agree with Loriely...TLBC also told me I could have chicken breast (nothing on it other than spices)...for the first week of my 2 week pre-op diet. Check with Nisrine.

PCOS: Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome You can do a search for it on the site; lots of stuff will pop up! (ie. rather than me repeating it all here!) LOL Besides, off to work now!

I won't lash ya Jude....but in the long run I'm not sure that will help plus you may not be able to keep that up (not that you should!). but you KNOW all this!!!!

Yeah, I had wicked wicked NASTY carb withdrawal symptoms!!! Kim...easy on the yogurt girl....a whole BIG container for one meal is a lot.

Exercise is one thing I do a lot of; always have....it just never did much due to my PCOS.....but I kept (& keep) at it anyways. My hubby is into sexercise....that works too! LOL

Yes, call them if you are unsure, Kim. I'd recommend staying away from pop (even diet)...just stick to your crystal light. Also, make sure you don't eat it fast...take your time...let it fill you up.

Just thought I'd share that I saw him perform last night (up in your neck of the woods, Cloe!!). One word to describe him....eclectic!! (I think I spelled it right!). The tickets were free....otherwise I wouldn't have gone. Must say I'm not really a big fan...after seeing him....even lesser of one. Nothing against him...he actually sings quite well, I'm just not a big bluesy type of fan (he did a lot of that) nor a big country fan (which he also did). I preferred his edgier rockier stuff (which he didn't do enough of!). Also, I must be getting old because it was WAAAAAAAY too loud for me! Mind you, a lot of ppl were complaining about the sound level...and a few weeks ago I was at another conert there and the level was great. So, maybe it was just his techies.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm McDooooooonalds fries.....*smacks lips*. I haven't had them since the first week of April....Mmmmmmmm what I would give to just suck on a Micky D's fry right now!!! Neenagh, that is (was) one of my main drugs of choice....you HAD to remind me, dammit!!!!! LOL

LMAO here....okay, now THAT was funny!
