July Butterflies Master Thread

[1day at a time 2]

Okay I gained 1 pound I am now 212 not to bad. So I updated my ticker.

1 Day......not bad at all. I haven't weighed. I weigh tomorrow night at the bible study. It won't be good. I have not exercised on a regular basis.

I had chest pains last night around my band so I got up and took my blood pressure. My pulse was 102. I think it was anxiety due to the Fibro. I am fine this morning. That is some crazy stuff. You never know where or when it is going to kick in.

I wish I was going to FL with all of you on other thread.....maybe next year. I hope y'all have a great time although the weather may not be the best. It is going to start raining here tomorrow and the rest of the week.

Take care!

I think that's pretty good for being out of town, It could have been worse. I know when we go out of town it's really hard because you tend to eat things you wouldn't make for yourself at home. I'll bet next week will be better now that your home. And Florida how wonderful, Hope you have a great time.

Well, lost control at the Super Bowl party. I ate cheese dip and chips.....and two Cookies. So, back on track today. How did all of you do with the SB parties?

[1day at a time 2]

We did not go any were I just stayed at home and watched the game. Had some chesse puffs.

Emotional eating again cause I am so sad and angry that now I can't go to Fl. I cryed so hard yesterday. I really wanted to go so badly I have been planning on it and then everything has been going wrong but then i always manage to find a way around it. Like I was driving to Fl and my mom was going than she bailed so then my best friend was going and she missed a whole week of work due to the flu so she bailed (not her fault I know). Then I was going to fly and my sister in law was giving me miles but an emergency happened and she need them to fly someone were fast. Then late last night the nail in the coffin so to speak my husbands van blew a head and the money I had for the trip flew away. We have to buy another car or another engine.

This freakin sucks I want to go so very badly but can't. I am trying not to be a little kid about it but aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh

So sorry you can't go.

I hope you get your van fixed soon.

I was going to start my pouch test today.....didn't happen. I will try again tomorrow.

You know I always get to day two and then just have to eat soemthing for dinner. I don't think I ever made it through the week. And I make the Soups. I guess my mind keeps saying no. Not that I eat bad but I could do better and with all the self pity and crap I have fell off the excercise train.

Don't mean to be a bummer.

You can do it girl we all can. Try again tomorrow

[kimaly 57]

I am so so sorry about your trip, I know that must be so disapointing. Sometimes life just finds a way to give us a hard kick in the rear. Maybe because you and Charlene both were not able to make it ya'll could plan a trip togather or to meet somewhere at a later date. Just a thought. Well, I had my weekly weigh in and no loss, no gain. That's ok I'll hit something next week. Super bowl wasn't a problem. It was just me and the hubby so I didn't eat anything out of the norm. I've gotten use to making him big home cooked meals everynight and not being able to eat them. I guess in some sick twisted way I eat through him. Every time I see something I want I make it for him. It's hard because I love to cook. I haven't changed anything I bring into the house for him, Just myself. Although I do try to cook healthier for him, but he still gets all the good stuff. It's ok with me because he's not the one with the weight and colest. problems.

Just checking in......started on the shakes......that lasted one day. I have been riding my exercise bike and using resistance bands. At least I am doing something. The weather here sucks, but it sucks everywhere. I will not complain about the hot weather in Texas any more. I look forward to the spring and summer.

How are all of you doing?

[kimaly 57]

Well at least your doing your exercise, I start and quit start and quit and start and quit. plucks my last nerve, And the shame of it all is it's my own fault.

Oh, don't beat yourself up. Take one day at a time. exercise when you can and it will turn into a habit. We are in this for the long haul. Let's check in on Monday and see how we survive Valentine's Day.......with all the sweets. So far this season I have had conversation hearts and one bite brownies with a heart on them. I haven't gone crazy.....yet!

Alright, I'm gonna share some before and during progress pics with ya'll and sorry about the pj's in the last ones but it was early this morning. I'm still wide waisted, just can't seem to do anything about that. But no hips or rear to speak of.

[Charlene K 1]

Kimaly, you look awesome! You can really tell the loss. As for me.....I am not ready to share pics. I went from26-28 to a 20. Sometimes I still need a 22 blouse for my wings....lol. My goal has always been a 14. I have no illusions of being the size I was forty years ago. I am still trying. I did my exercise bike and resistance bands today. I just need to make it a habit like writing on LBT. lol
