I could be so catty right now, but i won't..... People were concerned for you and YOU got snippy with them. @summerset I would suggest you start your next post with..... NO REPLY PLEASE... ONLY HERE TO VENT.

Hole up swole up..... you need to unknot your big girl panties and take the advice YOU ASKED FOR.... Maybe YOU need to learn how to structure a sentence so that people understand your complaining better.... You said what you said... Your sounding like an immature whiner..... who's not getting there way and now your stomping and yelling... get up off the floor and grow up.

how could the test be complete if you threw up the contrast? And if you threw it up... why did the dr say you are ok? I'm just a bit confused. Is anyone else reading the contradictions?

hehe.... she is cute. he had his bachelor party in vegas.... and no one talks about it.... all i know, it was a reallyyyyyy great time.

Life is too damn short to be trying to fix people..... That's what i am... I'm a fixer. I'm the one people/family comes to when they are having problems.... I hate saying NO.... i can't.... just kills me. Guess this is why i stayed married for 26 years.... @AJ Tylo I can send my husband over and give you some great tips on how to be a better partner.... the monogamy thing is on you... hehe

@AliciaBoyles ..... Lets start with the obvious. He is your BF... and sounds like a controlling ****. Your child, is it his? Not that it really makes a difference. Did anyone ever warn you about the high % of people that lose relationships due to WLS? (raises hand, screaming meeeee) I can see so much of what you said in myself. I meet my x in the late 90ies, we have one son together. We were married for 26 years. When we first got together i was 5'2" and about 100lbs. very tiny. After having my son i started putting on weight. He would make comments about me gaining and that i was fat and ugly and that no one would want me if i left him. He was very controlling. He controlled everything... Me, son, money, house.... even the food i was allowed to buy, i didn't even have a CC for our account. He would give it to me, send me to the store and as soon as i walked he i would have to turn it over to him. He is 6'4" so even when he would gain a few, he was still ok. Years went by and my confidence and self-worth went down to nothing.... It was everything to get out of bed and go to work every day. My weight kept going up up up.... my HW 232#. One day i was talking to a co worker and she told me about her WLS (band). I started researching and knew i could get approved. So i mentioned it to him.... He BLEW HIS TOP. Saying i didn't love him anymore and that i was being selfish... oh and i must have another man on the side that i wanted to lose weight for. I didn't start my WL journey because i wanted to get healthy... i wanted to "save my marriage". I wanted him to find me attractive again (sex 1-4 x's a year). In my crazy head if i lost the weight he would love me again like he use too........ NOT. It didn't help at all, in fact, it made it worse. He became even more of an a$$ hole than before. He bacame more controlling... I couldn't even have a cell phone. Well i didn't listen to him and had the Band in 2009. It saved me in so many ways. My weight (at 143) and my mental health. I woke up from this fog that i had been in for 25+ years. I realized that i didn't have to live like that anymore. Even if i were to never meet a man and live the rest of my life alone.... i was ok with that. I divorced him. last Sept. i married the most amazing man EVER. Here is something to think about..... If your Best friend would come to you and tell you the same things that you are going through.... What would you tell her? You need to prepare yourself... lots of people start cheating (both ways). I know tons of women in your situation that found out later that their husband started cheating when they started losing. He is looking for a way out.... he's not happy with the overweight you, now he's not happy with the slimmer you. He basically making you chose him or your health and happiness. There is one problem... HE doesn't have to do your dying for you. God forbid something happened.... Trust in the fact that he would go on and find another woman to control. My ex told me to stop losing weight and at first, i did, then i thought...... F*ck him.. i'm doing this for me. I need to take care of me. He is a grown a$$ man. Now he has no one to cook, clean, work, make his appointments, pick up his RX's, take care of the dog, take care of the yard..... He didn't even know how to turn on the dishwasher..... My life is so amazing now, there no way i could tell everyone without people say..... Man she is full of sh*t... No man does all that. My band had to be removed in 2017, after i was divorced. Over the last 2.5 years i put back 30 and got up to 173.5. I talked to him about a revision.... He said, i think you are absolutely beautiful, but i will support what ever choice you make.... he is my biggest cheerleader (although no one else knows). But if someone comes up to him and says....Chris has lost a lot of weight..... He tells them i know, she looks great. She just changed the way she eats.... BAM!!! husband of the year award. Read and really try and answer the question @Krimsonbutterflies asked.... they are great. don't be like me and wake up 25 years later and think.... WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING.... Two words...... BE HAPPY!!!!

@GreenTealael..... look a shirt that fits.... hehehe

I know.... but i love just saying.... size 00... hehe No i have not heard from her.

So yes.... still working everyday. My company is not letting anyone off.... booooo.... but i still have a pay check so this is good. Bought these pants from Chico's when tim and i first started dating and there for a while i hated wearing them because they had gotten too small. NOW... they seem a little too big. maybe i should dry them in the drier instead of hanging them. They are a 00 (size 4). Shirt is new. TH on sale of course. Tim bought a few weeks ago. Starting to warm up in the great state of Mississippi... hehe. The shoe i have had and still love them 9&Co. I forget where i got them but you can be sure they were on sale. hehehehehe

I know when i got the band my body stopped losing at 143. I am 5'2" and my SW was 232#. There i stayed for 7+ years. Until i had to get her out 3 years ago in 2017. Over the last few years, i put back 30#. I decided to do a revision and got sleeved 8/28/19. SW 173.5, today 129. My weight loss is slowing and currently only losing about a pound a month. Your body will definitely decide on where it wants to be. But, you have to be doing everything you can to make sure you are doing your part. Continue to portion out your food and exercise. You will benefit greatly from logging in and weighting/portioning what you eat. Exercising in a different way will help also. If you simply cut back your cal to 1000 per day and up your exercise... you will start to lose again.

yes... Today's lunch.... via Saturday night dinner date with the husband

@summerset Not going to lie.... had to look up Knäckebrot. I like Pumpernickel... i have to tell the waitress to NOT bring to the table... i can't resist it. There is one bread that i allow myself a 1/4 of a slice.... http://www.daveskillerbread.com/good-seed So good, and if i toast it long enough i can eat it.

They are hoarding everything here.... Its a good thing i don't eat rice, pasta, bread.... Those shelves are empty as well. bottle water, soda, eggs.... you name it... Crazy but fresh produce is good... thank God. Sitting here eating a pear.

what's crazy is the fresh baked breads are still there, but the prepackaged, processed ones are completely gone. Guess people aren't at the point of slicing their on bread yet.

I was never told to not drink alcohol..... I keep it to one or two a night on the weekends. One now has me tipsy.... I drank a Lemond drop Saturday night and I felt it at the last sip. I don't drink beer (don't like it) nor do i drink anything mixed with soda.... (exp: jack and coke) I will drink a glass of wine or a mixer with juice or a margarita. Everything in moderation.....

made meatloaf this weekend that will last me for weeks.... vacuum sealer for the win.

I am entitled to my opinion.... And i'm still not worried. I go to work every day, go to the grocery and get only what is needed. I have NOT overbought anything. Husband and i had dinner out Saturday night and it was great.... No waiting for a table, no waiting for drinks, and no waiting for food. It was a beautiful meal.... Crab claws appetizer, Filet (MR) Grilled asparagus, and au gratin potatoes.... (glad he let me eat off his plate). Stuck to my portions During all this, and managed to lose a pound and a half this week. I never said this sickness was made up... Corona has been around.... Honestly had the media not scared the crap out of people, most would be going about there lives as normal. I know of not one person, or even a person of a person.... or even a person of a person of a person that has tested positive. I do know one thing... that the person in front of me yesterday that bought 10 gallons of orange juice and left NONE on the shelf for anyone else is panic buying.... I would NEVER do that... Ridiculous. She pulled her buggy up to the cooler and had her daughter stand so that no one else could get any. Not going to lie... the thought (i hope she loses power and all that juice goes bad) did cross my mind. People fighting over toilet paper and a can of veggies.... come on people. If people would shop as normal we would not be in the situation that we are... Pre this years deer.... it's filled up even more now... One pound of ground deer could last me nearly a week. The Bread isle... I don't eat bread, so could careless. This was the case on the candy, ship, soda.... still... don't care. Produce is full and that's what i care about..... When i can't get fresh veggies... then i will start to worry. Planted my herbs for the year... all good.

Ohhhhh love your doggies....

Amazing.... so thin.... @GreenTealael... is correct, lots of my nicer shirts are too big.... Now wanting on her to offer to fix them for me... Hint hint.....hehehe I lost another lb this week. Don't really know how, but i did... i'm in the 120ies.... 129.8 My new pants (size 4) are now getting too big.

Ok.... T.... ill take one of each..... please and thank you... hehehe I would have that so jacked up.

i don't sew.... but ms linda does (seamstress). hehe

I left it untucked.... you are right. My shirts are getting too big... 😞 and i really love this one and it was expensive af....

To tuck..... or Not to tuck.... that is the question. What do you guys think??? @Sophie7713 Thought of you this am when i put these shoes on..... Johnston & Murphy reg. price $189.99... got them on sale for $20 bucks..... win win win Last summer i stopped wearing these pants because they are too small... (chico size 00).... now they fit... whoop

I agree, but you look younger than Morgan.... He is/was one of my favorite TWD characters... Technically he is probably still alive. Do you watch TWD? He's in the very first eps. and throughout the years has a major impact on the storyline...... I'm a HUGE TWD fan.

I can walk all day and night in a pair of super heels.... but that one strap across the top kills me... They are cute though.
