neenagh

thanks guys! it's good to know i'm not the only one who screws up! Cloe, the situation with your dtr is a tremendous stressor, i am totally in awe of you keeping it together under such circumstances, plus being wed to a high falutin' political mover and shaker. when i had bad teenagers i ate myself into oblivion!!! ps. my ticker went UP by .2 *sigh* it could be worse.

Yah i agree a big old pass on that physio place! I'm glad he's finally sending u for help tho. but the next time he mentions your weight, just kick him where it counts really hard and fast, and say oops sorry, my wieght makes my leg do that ever once in a while.

OH yoda, i hate to say it, but are u overfilled? you sound almost as bad as i was. It's the not beinga ble to drink enough that causes the fatigue iin my opinion. I really think u should call the clinic and let them know wahts going on!

i gotta try this stuff...does it soak up chocolate and pb? btw yoda, so glad your ticker's not a lie anymore! YAY!!!

yah, they were awful good! smmoooothh and sweeett....STOP IT neenagh!

Hey Maria, how's your back? Any help from the doc?

blarney alert....Bless you and keep u mother o'argon!

oh, i almost forgot, an nsv, before the whole ugly reeses thing! this morning i was clean out the shoe closet and started trying on all my summer shoes and sandals, deciding which to throw out. Well they were all WAY TOO BIG!!! I mean my feet were falling out of them too big! hugely too big! so my nsv is that my feet are no longer fat:rolleyes: !

at first i thought she meant pee too, but i think she's talking poo, cuz like u said, im pretty sure you'd be dead if u didnt pee for 4 days! do those chewable benefibers swell up? do they go thru your stoma okay? would you recommend them (besides the taste?)

well, i have completely lost it. i went out at lunch time (afternoon shift) and bought two reeses peanut butter cup pkgs. thats a total of 6 pb cups! I ATE THEM ALL!!!. it just felt so good to eat something and not have it hurt (since my fill/defill debacle), but at the same time, i was telling myself that i was gonna regret it, and boy am i sad now. How could i sabotage myself like that?!?! Geez! its not like i have some trauma going on or new stressors in my life. WTF? to sum up: my dinner consisted of sugar, fat and chemicals :scared: ps tomorrow is weigh in day to top it all off:(

be afraid, VERY AFRAID! MWHAHAHAH

Astro toes! your my doppleganger!!!:scared:

Astro toes, I have noticed that everyone is different in this respect. Some pple say there is no way they can eat something, and then others say they are fine with it. eg. i can eat popcorn til the cows come home and someone else said they had no problem with salad, but i certainly do! and chicken is a big nono for me, but it is a staple for others.

*singing* yasmina's getting banded,nahnah,nahnah,nah!Yay!

i agree cloe its totally worth it!!!

ahhh geez cloe, bummer. i bet the 2lbs is fluid retention tho if your kidney infection is back. not that its much of a consolation...

Hi Astrotoes, I initially picked a goal weight of 150-155, the doc told me that was too ambitious. so i moved it up to 160. but i since have rethought about it and put it up to 165 cuz i'm not so young and the old mug is starting to sag as the weight comes off.

Hey Lila! Yah when i'm old im gonna say whatever the hell pops into my head! I'm getting better...slowly, still going thru roough patches, but they are become less frequent. Hey Mandi! Its amazing how we just cant get our heads around it in spite of all the evidence isnt it? btw look at that ticker o' yours! your gonna disappear soon!

Okay, am i the only one waiting for the other shoe to drop? I'm down almost 40lbs, but i keep on thinking that i'm not going to get to goal. More importantly, i can't get my head around the notion that this is the last time i will have to lose the weight!?!?:cry It's so weird.

I have read about others having the same problem on other threads. You should do a search and see what you can find. I totally agree with cloe. elevate the head of your bed, choking in your sleep isnt good!

Speaking as someone who pushed her doc into overfilling, DONT DO IT!!! i still dont feel 100% and i had the extra fill taken out on monday!

Hi Hugi they dont decide til they are "in there" (but not like cloes hubby!) it depends on the size of your actual stomach and how much fat is around it.

I went back and took a look at my stats, and in the first month i went from 232 to 212...so 20lbs exactly, and man was i happy!

Oh Maria, I hope that the doc sends u to a specialist to get things straightened out. At least they cant blame it on your weight anymore!(you know how they love to do that...hey doc, i got stabbed in the chest, can u help me?....well you know if u werent so fat, that never would have happened and now the healthcare system has to pay for your inability to put down your fork)

Thats an awful long time for your first try! I was thinking of getting back on for say...10 minutes and work my way up! lol
