It would take 181.4 pennies to equal one pound. I think I just found a new way to save.....hmmm....could be a nice way to reward myself as I shed those pounds....

found this on a blog and it fit on this thread:

Hello, do you know me? If you don't you should. I'm a pound of fat, and I'm the happiest pound of fat that you would ever want to meet. Want to know why? It's because no one ever wants to lose me; I'm Only One Pound, just a pound. Everyone wants to lose three pounds, five pounds or fifteen pounds, but never only one, so I just stick around and happily keep you fat. Then I add to myself ever so slyly so that you never seem to notice it, that is until I've grown to ten, twenty or even more pounds in weight. Yes, it's fun being Only One Pound of fat, left to do as I please. So, when you weigh in, keep right on saying "Oh, I only lost one pound." ( as if that were such a terrible thing!) For you see, if you do this you'll encourage others to keep me around because they will think I'm not worth losing. And I love being around you - your arms, your legs, your chin, your hips and every part of you. Happy Days!! After all, I'm Only One Pound of fat!!!

beer must have drowned them out............

OMG That is brilliant! If my fat could talk......

​As my husband and I were driving home from TGIF tonight, he said we are fat. We are. He went to the cardiologist the other day and he was not thrilled. Hub gained some weight back. He is as lazy as me lately not going to the gym. Saw my WLS doctor today and he wants me back at the gym, too. I gained 3 pounds.

Have a great weekend.

ok. dylan, so you gained

you acknowledged..you know what to do and what not to do

and 3 pounds is not all that bad...who knows maybe you didnt have a good poop or

had some water/salt retention......so you and hub get right back on it today...

eat your allotted amount

make better food choices/options

and if you dont go to the gym or (walk due to 60 feet of snow on ground)

be mindful of the cals in vs cals burned off aspect

i do that when i dont exercise...as 3500 cals is a pound ate or drank

YOU can and WILL do this and get throught it

we are with you every step of the way

I got on my scale this morning and I was about 5 pounds less than yesterday. Oh well.

Thank you for the kind and to the point thoughts.

I saw that your Tars beat BC today. My niece went to BC and I know a lot of people that went there. I grew up about 2 miles from there on the main street, Commonwealth Avenue. About 2 miles down the other way was BU.

Snowed today, UGH! My MIL insisted on going food shopping, so we took her. I do the driving and the shopping, hub sits and observes.

Have a great weekend.

i think weight loss success is how people shape their daily plans, (what they do today)

and to think about the small steps they have already made instead of (i haven't loss, i am stalled, what a i doing wrong)

read this.....NOTHING has gone wrong

read this too.........A LOSS IS A LOSS....

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
