Teresita 0 Posted January 23, 2007 Good Morning I hope everyone had a great evening. Mine was a bit iffy but I was very productive. I did not exercise but I stayed busy so I wouldn't keep eating. I ran errands, cleaned up and sorted bills. Oh what fun. I went to the gym this morning. I am stressed so pray that I don't eat everything today. I have weigh in tonight and I am concerned.

Teresita 0 Posted January 23, 2007 Bandida you are going to make me go get a Tae Bo tape. I use to do them and it was great exercise. You really work a diffrent set of muscles. I remember feeling stronger and I had more energy after doing his tapes. The gym is in my office building so I just come in early. I hope I get an opportunity to go back at lunch.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

avilla 1 Posted January 23, 2007 Thanks Bandida!! I keep telling myself that its not that bad... And I was trying to stay off the scale until Sunday for a weekly weigh in instead of every day, but I thought I had been doing so good that I wanted to see how much I had lost...lol...Dang thing was suppose to move the opposite direction! I am so thankful for this site and being able to get out what is bothering me and being able to hear those amazing words of encouragement to keep me going...This post alone gives me the strength to carry on and continue what I have been and need to be doing! So I want to thank everyone on here for being here for everyone and sharing your experiences for us all to view Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
avilla 1 Posted January 23, 2007 Teresita, I tried but it wont go away no matter what I do!!! And the gain has been from Sunday when I weighed in last Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teresita 0 Posted January 23, 2007 Avilla Sunday Monday Tuesday 7am Come on that is not enough time. Where are your measurements? Give your body some time. Just stay motivated. How much did you weigh when you got banded? How much did you weigh in October and how much do you weigh now? Come on I want to see the numbers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
avilla 1 Posted January 23, 2007 Well, I would add a line like yours with all of the weight loss and measurements and stuff but my signature line wont save anything more than what I put on it due to all the extra space in there...Says all that blank space counts as used characters....But anyways, started at 312.5 and now at 259.5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
