July Butterflies Master Thread



Recommended Posts

WTG Marie, I'm really happy for you.

One Day, I really thought about buying that one I had it in my cart at Walmart yesterday but put it back. It was only $99 but I just wasn't sure so I found the health Master on QVC thanks to Charlene and it was $30 cheaper then on the health Master site so I ordered it. It won't be here until the 13th but I'm really excited. I also bought some shape ups but not sketchers because their $110 I just got the danskins from Walmart because they are only $25. I'm hoping to build up a bit of muscle in my bum as it no longer exsist.

Kimaly, I bought my shapeups around march and they are the most comfortable things I own. I got the black ones and I wear them with my black school pants. I can walk around my class all day and my feet still dont hurt. Let me know how the juicer thing works for you. I am not a big veggie juice person I like fruit juice, but the whole V-8 thing never did it for me.:redface:

Marie, congrats on the weight loss, you are definitely on the right track.

I posted this on another board but thought my butterflies would love to here this.

So yesterday I met my family and friends for dinner and a movie. We saw the last movie of the day at the mall. So when we where leaving and riding down the escalators I went one escalator to many down and my one friend said wrong way and my other friend behind me ran back up. I tried but fell on my butt on the step my husband tried to catch me but didn't and I laughed the whole way down riding the step like I was a little kid on my butt, good thing the mall was closed. Well today I have a bruise on my butt oh well pricing for acting like a kid LOL. Oh and the only reason I could not run back up at to the top I was wearing my evil sketchers you know made for toning.

Anyways all in all I am doing well

LMAO! not at you but I couldn't help it when I read it. I have been afraid of those things my whole life, For that reason. I've seen that happen in my head over and over again. I have always done everything I could to avoid them. Glad you weren't hurt.

One day, sorry you fell......I bet that was a sight to see. lol. I looked at those toning shoes only they were NB. The shoe guy said they are not as high and easier to wear. They were comfortable. That might be my next pair of shoes. Meanwhile, I am breaking in my new pair of NB I bought six months ago. Walking everyday finally I finally wore out my old pair.

I will check in on Wednesday! Have a great Monday!

Kimaly......hope you have fun!

One day, I saw on the other thread you had a procedure.....Get well soon!

I lost a lb. I am still walking even though we are under a heat advisory. The humidity is 72.......heat index is mild today....91. The humidity is getting to me in the evening. I am getting light-headed after about walking a mile. The morning walks are fine. Anyway, I am going to the thyroid dr in a couple of weeks. I don't think I need this much thyroid medicine since I am walking everyday.

crzytchr.......I know you must be busy getting your classroom ready. I hope you get a good class this year.

Later peeps!

I think it is cool that you got the tattoo done. I feel that loving and accepting ourselves, where we are now, is the thing that most of us struggle with.

Charlene, who is that adorable baby with you?

kimaly, I hope you are having fun on your trip!

That adorable baby is my new great niece, Daphne. She was 2 months old that day. I will be having a new grandbaby by September 13th. Her name is going to be Bethany. I made that picture my profile because I usually don't take good pics. My niece took it with a real expensive camera. I guess it pays to buy the best.

Kimaly, post pics when you get back.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
