Boo Boo Kitty

I have seen this as well, and NO longer buy any bagged veggies. GO organic if you can!

Unfortunately discrimination is alive and well in many aspects of life, but being plus size we do have a big advantage, we can change our weight. But being skin color, ethnicity, and race can not be changed. As much as I hate being fat I have myself to blame. People hate others that are not like them. And actually I think that overweight people can threatening to others. Most of my skinny friends tell me that they wish they could be as happy as me. They don't know I am just being the life of the party so I make sure they are laughing with me, not at me. :think

lol....ya know I really should write it! You have no idea how mean CPS was...

Well I have read this thread for awhile, and time I come to turns with my issue! I was abused as a child without getting to unneeded details it was long lasting and painful. I never dealt with the pain, and ignored it. Well at 19 I had hit rock bottom. I was a big drinker and partier. I lead a double life, by day I was a married cake decorator, by night a bartender at a gentleman's club. Well we all know that things never stay dormat for long. I became to hate myself and being an object to all of those men. So I put myself on a path of ultimate self destruction and ate my feelings down. After I gained 20 pounds I was "relieved" of my bartending job because I no longer was the perfect 10 that was required. And I kept going from there. I know now that the abuse as horrible as it was made me who I am. I am a very strong woman, who never stops until she gets what she wants. I no longer try to stuff pain with Twinkies. Because even then the pain is still a bitter pill to swallow. I now understand that food can not solve a damn thing other than hunger. (BOY I feel like I just had a therapy session, how much do I owe you guys?? lol....)

I used to be a complete COKE addict. On average I would drink a 12 pack a day. YES, a 12 pack. It was cheap in the south. When we moved back to Michigan I brought 200 cases back in the car. I did talk the truck driver into bringing some. When I got pregnant with my first my husband thought it was time I quit, at the OB he blurted out I was a coke addict. Of course he did not mean what the Dr thought he was talking about. CPS (child protective services) was brought into to the office. ( | was 6 months pregnant or so.) It took taking them to the house and showing my stash to get them to leave me alone.... SO now it is just Water for me. I am proud to say I am an EX coke addict!

And that is the same of anyone that gets it. That is just from the sheer force needed to sometimes stop someone of choking. I had never thought of this before though, so I am very glad that you brought it up!

OK I was so nervous I thought I was going to pass out. BUT I got the fill with nothingelse first and it was a breeze. I am a big baby so I want everyone to know who is freaked out about it that it was easy easy easy! Dr only put .5ccs in, which I was sad. I wanted more, but I was told I was doing too well to give me more...lol...it was not needed he said. OH WELL! :bored

I talked to the Dr and dietician today at my visit. Her take on it is that I am gulping too much air when I eat or drink. Dr said it is just a side effect for some. I am going to try beano 24/7....lol THANKS FOR THE HELP GUYS! You are all the best.... :clap2:

How cool! Congrats! And btw, you got it on the place that hurts the worst, so if you ever get another it shouldn't be that bad! lol...but it is super cool.

I eat alot of protien shakes and bars. It really gets no better with what I eat. I even get it from drinking water. I was never like this before.

I know how you feel about being busy. I work, go to college full time and have 2 kids. (kids are about 10 jobs right..lol) I have found it hard to eat at home. I now pack lunch, which takes me an extra 5 minutes in the a.m. If I run late I grab a protien bar or Meal Replacement bar. There are some very tasty and satisfying bars out there. I love Nutrilite bars though. Breakfast is usually a protien shake or a meal replacement bar. For Snacks I carry a bar and break it into pieces. You can eat well in a hurry, it just takes dedication! I do not even go to fast food for good food. It is just too much of a temptation to fall back into that trap! :hungry:

I see Erica in a mental facility in the future from a nervous breakdown. I think once she says how she was played she is seriously going to doubt herself! What a freaking idiot she is....

Thank you so much to all of you. I am feeling a little better knowing that it is not a death sentence necessarily. I just hate that my body is doing thtis now, after I am finally trying to take good care of it...

OMG Josette! Is it our nasty Michigan sun that has done this to us?? :couch2:

Good luck! I had my surgery done there. I love it there. If it is meant to be it will happen!

Wooo hooo! What a fun day that will be! Congrats to you!

I know if looks could kill Boogie could have killed both girls. I am so happy they finally got some sense in their damn heads! Now Erika doesn't look like such a sappy guible girl! YEAH!

Erika does look horrible, she needs to go back to not smoking. What I wonder about how the people that know her feel about her & Boogie. I know how we feel, I hate it. They must really hate him!

I am planing on a belt tatoo as well for tummy tuck scars. Makes the thought of a tummy tuck better!

Down 38 pounds now and feeling fine! I need to go get some new pants, mine fall off now! YEAH! :clap2:

I will gladly give up sneezing if you have a cure for that!

My doctor told me under no circumstances do carbonation, such as pop and beer... :mad: I have recently been craving a coke so bad I was crying. (I have been drinking 3 a day since I was 7.) SO I had a small bit of frozen coke! It made my day I swear! AND no carbonation so no problems! LOL...

I have never thought of myself as in the closet but I guess I am! Only a few close friends and select family know. I like it that way. I feel that my issues with food are just that my issues, and do not want my life out there for personal speculation. I am fat because I stuffed the bad parts of my life down my throat in a cake. My Granmda in law knows and she drives me crazy asking me everyday what I have lost and telling me "I didn't think you'd be able to eat that much" as I eat off a child size plate. I don't want to be a role model at this point. Maybe that is just my survival instincts rearing their ugly head....

Must be the same person that messed with mine. I am working my butt off and even biking 4 miles a day and STILL the same!

Yesterday I biked 4 miles.....I guess Telly inspired me!
