Hi gals

Vicki

sorry you are in such a place. I wish I had something to say other than stay strong and don't totally gve up. I bounced 8lbs for a year, up 8 down 8 but never lost any more than my lowest, it was very frustrating but I survived, and trust me, if my OCD crazyness got thru it... so can you!

Thank you China :tongue_smilie:

Vicki, keep in mind how far you have come. Take some new pictures and compare the old you to the new you and get inspired from that. You've done really well so keep working at it and don't give up. :smile:

Thanx guys, really, Val, BigGurl, Jen, everyone, It really helps to know I am not alone, one thing I have not done is take pictures and now I wish I had, I was never a picture taker to begin with..I will see if I can find one and take it from there. I am just craving everything sweet and carbolicous....I need to stay focused and I hate my boyfriend cause he is no help at all, shoving butterfingers and other sweets at me today telling me to treat myself. I though i would have to kill him and go to prison and lose weight there with there i'm sure nasty food... oh well, no prison today just good old fashioned will power..love to all and talk to you soon....:thumbup:

When I do liquids, I do low sodium chicken broth and s/f pops, post surgery liquids. 5 day pouch test. I need a fill, so it is hard when I can eat. I decided last night that I am going to do the old LA Weightloss jumpstart. 3 oranges, unlimited chicken and green veggies, for 3 days. I do know it works, why don't know, but it does.

Thanx guys, really, Val, BigGurl, Jen, everyone, It really helps to know I am not alone, one thing I have not done is take pictures and now I wish I had, I was never a picture taker to begin with..I will see if I can find one and take it from there.

I am so sorry, guys just don't have a clue how hard it is. Have you been with him the entire journey of weightloss? You don't have to answer, sorry if too personal. But do you think maybe he is a little jealous? I am still dealing with jealousy.

You know what else I hate, when I am dating... guys like to eat... and most of them want to take me out to eat on a date... I don't tell everyone about my surgery, infact, no one knows, I just tell them I have digestive problems.... that is a need to know thing... but they all know I have issues and am really into nutrition so WHY.... WHY do they insist on going out to eat 3 meals a day???

OK, well, I feel better after my drunk fest last night... so I'm going to get motivated and hit the gym.

Vicki - stay strong! xoxoxo

[val 7]

i kno vicki it is so hard. i tell them when im out on a date that i can only eat a little and i eat very slow.
