Gone for Good Club - June 2006

Funny, I am glad you made it through the weekend. Mothers can be stressful. ALso, what kind of new diet are you starting? You are already doing so well.

It is the sacred heart hospital diet. They use it for MO patients who are going to go into surgery. It supposedly is a very fast weight loss, lowers cholesterol, and shrinks the liver. You are supposed to lose 10-17 pounds a week on it, and that is not Water weight. That is week after week you continue to lose that weight, as long as you don't cheat. So I am gonna do it. I posted the diet in the food forum, and will be updating it daily to let everyone know how I am doin on it. It is getting a lot of interest. Check it out and come and lose with me.

I watched the storm last night and really tried to relax. It helped a lot. I am gonna do some extra pilates and try to get my mind centered again, and then dive into work. that always help me to take my mind off of things.

Can life get any better??? Girls, I am on cloud 9!!! I weighed this morning... (thought it was Wednesday when I woke up.) Well that beautiful scale that I LOVE so much told me I was 244!!! Only 5 pounds from the 230's and only 15 pounds from 100lbs lost since my surgery!!!

I thought I posted this.. but I can't remember...

Went and tried on bridesmaid dresses Saturday... well last year at this time I had to get a size 26 from David's Bridal... drum roll puhlease... the size 18 fit beautifully... but I ordered a 16 since the wedding is 3 months away and I have no doubts that I will fit into it by Sept. 30th. I am posting a pic of it for you guys to see!

When it comes in and I can fit into it... I will post a picture later also, of ME in it!

If you can't tell, I am SO in love with my band!

Heather, what a lovely wedding gown. Size 16 does sound -- and feel -- so much better than size 26. Congrats on all your achievements!!

That is a great dress, I'm excited to see how great you will look in it! Congrats Heather!

Amy, I'm going to look into that diet, not sure right now, with life being super busy and crazy if I will want to try taking it on, but we will see. I need something to help me right now. Thanks for the info!

Hey guys! I'm back from Padre Island and we had a great time! I think I gained a few pounds since they took all my fill out last week during my ER scare. But at least I've convinced the doc to put some of the fill back in tomorrow 'cuz I'm starving all the time!!

Amy, that diet sounds pretty neat! The Soup recipe actually sounds good. I think I'll try it. I never could do the cabbage soup one because I HATE boiled cabbage! Thanks for sharing!!

Here's a pic of me in my SIZE 16 dress that I wore for the wedding!! Now if I could just get these arms to look buff!!

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Kristin,

I don't know if you are interested but there is an event in San Antonio that I am thinking of attending. I have included the link. Let me know if you are interested and we could meet up. You live in SA, correct?

HI! May I join this group???

Some of you know me by now. I was banded in 2003, lost 80 lbs in 7-8 months, had a major upheaval in my life for 2.5 years and I turned to food for comfort, regained 55 lbs, then got my head on straight and lost about 60 pounds since March.

So, I am down a total of 84 pounds as of today. I want to lose about 78 more, though I will probably go about 65 pounds more, then see a plastic surgeon for a body lift and boob reduction. That should take care of a few more pounds, at least! TMI??

My next mini-goal is to lose 16 pounds so I can say that I have lost 100 pounds! Hopefully, I can do that in the next 4-6 weeks!
