HUGS Karla!! I think maybe he is a bit jealous and feeling insecure. He may be afraid that once you're all thin and super hot that you'll leave him. Men are just like that! I know my stepdad was like that with my mom... he HATED for her to diet or wear makeup. I'm sure he just loves you very much and is afraid of losing you. Hang in there.

EVeryone is doing so great around here. I'm still stalled around 288-291. Very annoying. My fill from Thursday is good... I can't eat more than about 1/4 cup at a time. Right now I'm munching on a FiberOne bar... I've eaten about half and am satisfied... 2 weeks ago I ate 3 full bars in a row. Lol...

Stef - I replied to the questionaire PM. :regular_smile: If you didn't get it then I will forward it again... LMK.

(((Karla))) Sounds like hubby is feeling threatened by your new-found energy, confidence and independence and is just trying to guilt you where it counts. Guys are like that. Haven't met one yet that isn't. Their tiny worlds get out of kilter and they're reduced to sniveley little babies. :::::No guys are reading this right?::::: Sorry CD! Sounds like he really loves you and is maybe afraid of losing you. At least he apologized....more than mine does. Mine just sabotages me with his constant self-medicating food addiction. He's gained 20 pounds (he's still looking healthy though) since my banding and he's not giving in one inch....refuses to exercise too. It's like my world might change but his won't. I am planning on taking him on a bike ride his next day off so he can feel the pain! ::::evil laugh::::

Speaking of sabotaging.....after my two bike rides......and feeling mighty lean and mean today....I made my favorite Cookies and ummmm......indulged! Me bad!

Ohhhhhhhhh... what kind of Cookies? !?! Lol!!! Last night I ate 1/2 of a macadamia nut/white choc chip cookie. Sooooooooo good. I heart cookies.

So, I made the mistake of taking a NAP this evening when I got home from work... slept from 5p-9p!! So of course I"m WIDE awake now... at 12:20am!!!!!

Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement. I really appreciate it!

Well, I have to get ready for work ~ Another long day ahead of me.

Woot woot!

My scales have FINALLY moved! I'm at 98.6 lost. And if I wasn't constipated that number would be even better. Lol!!!

Had a hypoglycemic episode this morning. Ugh. I was in the bathroom, just go t out of the shower and everything got all spinny and black. I started sweating really bad and felt like I was going to pass out. I haven't had that problem since my fill in Sept when my intake was really restricted. I think my biggest problem this morning was that I hadn't eaten since about 9pm last night, and that was just 2/3 of a FiberOne bar... before that I ate a yogurt at 2pm. So yeah... I grabbed a few sips of chocolate soy milk, and popped 2 Glucose tablets. I feel better now. But man, thats scary!

Sheesh Suzz, be careful!! I'm glad you're okay. Congrats on the scale moving! I can't wait for my fill...I can eat ANYTHING! I have to find someone to give those Cookies to today (they're the oatmeal Scotchies). In the freezer they go.

Hi fellow June Bandsters! I haven't posted in a while. Just curious how you cope when you are craving everything, can eat anything and you have a fill that's still a few weeks away? I'm really stressing out! I had a Protein Shake this morning and less than two hours later I was starving. So I had some string cheese. Then at lunch, starving again, so had my chicken salad mixture that I always make. I just ate it half an hour ago and I'm already thinking of food again! This is making me nuts, any suggestions?

[wombat712 2]

Suzzzie!! Glad you are ok!!!!!!! Take care of yourself

And CONGRATS on the scale moving!!!!!!

Sweethinkr = I'm no help to you. I was snacking on crap just a bit ago :wink2:

No excuses - I wasn't even hungry!!! I just got bored and went and got it. :ohmy:

Suz, yikes! Please be careful. Glad to hear you're at 98 gone! Way to go!!!!

Suzzie - YIKES be careful!

Jamie - sorry no help from me either. I have started taking glucaphage, trying to get my hunger under control. I don't think it is helping much. I just trying and keep healthier snacking options - nuts, cheese, etc.. But the scale is STUCK for me!

[Suzzzie. 3]

Thanks for the concern everyone. I've been dealing with hypoglycemia for years. It started when I was about 10 years old. Very annoying, but managable. I've had a headache all day... which is typical for me after a bad spell.

I did manage to still go get my laundry done. And then I went to Walmart to buy some more Glucose Tablets, and random other stuff. And on my way home I decided that since I was wearing my work out clothes and shoes I should go to the gym. Lol. I was going to go for a walk today, but since I wasn't feeling too hot I didn't want to be a mile or more away from my car if I started to feel bad. So I did 30 minutes on the elliptical and then called it a night. Slacking, I know... but at least I went... right?

Suzzie--that's great about the 98lbs that are gone!!!! YEA SUZZZZIE!!!! It's also great about the 30 minute walk---something beats nothing!!!!

Suzzziee---If I remember correctly, we share a love for Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies---today she I bought some 90 calorie pack of Quaker Mini Delights Chocolately Mint....(mint chocolate drizzled rice cakes)---THEY ARE THE BOMB!!!! I almost hate that I bought them--I'll probably eat seveal bags...at one time!!!

[Suzzzie. 3]

Ohhhhhhhhhh BigBaby! THat sounds soooooo good!!!!

PS. - Ticker down again... I heart my fill!

ONLY 0.5 LEFT TO GO BEFORE I HIT 100!!!!!!!!!!!
