Fort Worth Buddies?

[tami j 277]

Thanks don! I will be trying to go to them, but was really hoping to find someone to carpool with. Guess I gotta go to see who comes from ft worth so we can take turns driving!

I have heard excellent things about Thinspirations and look forward to joining!

Shall- yes I was so tired after being out with hubby for less than 2 hours, then cleaning house, getting flower beds cleaned out and setting up workout room. Took 2.5 hour nap!

All week this week I was tired a lot at work, think it was from extended tom. Sorry don :/

Before that I was okay energy wise, so hope it was just because of that and my energy comes back this week

Shall-I have been exhausted too. Doc says it will be a month until I get energy.

Are you guys taking Biotin (10,000) and B12? Biotin is part if the b family and has an energy aspect, I think that is helping my energy, but my hair gets really greasy on day 2... I think that is also a side effect of the biotin

[tami j 277]

I started Biotin dots Monday, forget to take some meds on the weekends, that was one of them! I haven't noticed my hair yet, but it's only been 5 days since I started it, will have to see what happens. Hoping my nails will get stronger at least!

I have been taking B12 since out of hospital! For some reason I have only forgotten that one a few times on the weekends!

I am taking Biotin and B12. I am going to restart my coq10. That helps my energy but it is only a Gummy not chewable or liquid.< /p>

I take Biotin 1000 I seen the 10000 at store but It was a pill and wasn't for sure how big the pill was.

[shall258 12]

I don't know how I'm am doing it but I've gained another 1.5 lbs that makes a total of 3 lbs and have not list a pound in over 2 wks...feeling really discouraged

[Mama Spike 144]

Shall-what are you eating, drinking and how much exercise?

[shall258 12]

No exercise yet just do to schedule.

For Breakfast usually an egg, sometimes oatmeal less than 1/2 cup and sometimes nothing

lunch chicken salad or thin deli turkey ( the lil rounds one that about the sz of pepperoni) and cheddar cheese thin thin slice

dinner almost every night green Beans, baked chicken and one night I had fish

In between meals when I'm Hungry I try and get a Protein shake....but I have trouble getting these down and try and drink Water

I really try for 64 oz of liquid to get down, but it is just not happening. I drink unsweetened tea or water usually get down abt 32 oz a day and maybe 1/2 of apple juice but I really have not had one of those since liquid stage.

I have had a low fat cheese square for snack a couple of times maybe 3 times total...

And I feel hungry all the time, I'm satisfied but within 2-3 hrs I'm hungry again...and I'm also afraid I'm over eating.

Sometimes it's just a few bites and others I can eat almost the whole plate. I measure out everything

Just confused

[Mama Spike 144]

If it were me, I would up my liquids to 64. Only Decaf tea and add walking. I don't go to the gym but I have a fitbit and work to get 10,000 steps a day.

[Mama Spike 144]

Shall-how is it going?

Well tonight my super supportive husband had a snit when I asked him to switch laundry. I hope he is just tired but it is frustrating! Anyone else's hubby stressed?

[shall258 12]

Mama spike I'm doing great! My hunny has hidden the scales from me lol...we started at the gym last night and I worked out for abt 40 mins just cardio no wt yets. Sticking to my low carb option. I feel awesome these days. I'm trying to up my Protein and my Water intake. We r headed back to the gym tonight. My husband is a pre-sleeved but is going along with my diet and exercise plan. I'm hoping he will lose a good amt before surgery.

[shall258 12]

Guys I'm feeling amazing! This was only my 2nd wk out, but omg the energy level I'm having is awesome. I push my self a lil hard with each wk out.

I hope all my ft worth buddies are doing great!

Keep us posted with some updates

[clmftw 45]

Hello guys! Wow what a week, so glad we have a pretty weekend before the cold sets back in again

Kudos to those of You working out!! I am getting 10k steps in 3 days a week and the other days I work to get 5-6 k. Not great but I have stuck to it for 3 weeks, and that is better than any other time I have lost weight

My lowest weight that I remember in the last 10 ish years was 239.... I have been at 240 for a week. Went down to 239.8 two days ago, but right back up yesterday... So Jo scale this morning... And lots of movement today!

I am getting almost 80g of Protein, 100oz of Water and 1000 colonies a day... Felling really good about that, but I am relying on 2 shakes a day... This week I am going to try and cut out a shake... Replace it with food.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!!!
