[vicki's band 0]

I've just been thinking that I really need to get back on track. I need to start journaling everything again and get back to the excercise. Anyone want to join me jumping back on the wagon?

Hey anyone know what happened to Judyanticola? Where is she?

I think she got pi**ed off cause people didn't always agree with her opinions. I got that impression from her last posting..

I need to do something Rain I have been struggling since my last unfill, no more heartburn, but I am back up to 209.7 this a.m. :tt1: Couldn't my weight have stalled after onderland??? I hate journaling, but maybe I should start. It just seems like a big pain in the a** to me....:thumbup:

Vicki -

I'm so sorry but I do know where you are! Honeslty, I was between 202 and 210 for 8 months, how frustrating... now I'm 187-189 and no matter how hard I work its just not moving anymore. I have a stupid 12lbs to go...

I am adding Snacks to my food, I know everything they have told me for 2 years is 3 meals no snacks, but I think with all the exercise my body might be in starvation mode???

I'll let you know how that works, today I had 15almonds and got some slimfast high Protein Bars for this afternoon. If the scale starts moving again (DOWN) it will be so worth it.

((((Hugs))))

that is a no brainer for me Jenn, I have always been a snacker so I snack. I do not know my calorie intake cause my doc has us follow the south beach diet and it doesn't require counting calories, just monitoring our carb intake. I do know, that going below 1100 cal. a day will slow your met. down and you will stop losing wight..:tt1:

Vicki - I was ok with what I was eating, but now that i am exercising 2x's as much as I was, it is not working so I'm adding more calories.

I cannot eat carbs, can't eat fruit, no bread, no Pasta, nothing. I'll do multi grain chips sometimes but that is it.

I couldn't eat that much if I ate when I got up, but I get up at 5:30 have 1 cup of coffee, and a small glass of Water, put my son on the bus at 7:30 and walk for an hour, come home, have a glass of water and then make breakfast about 9 so It is almost lunch time by time I eat..lol
