frozen yogurt is so yummy. My mom, daughter and I went to Kohl's this afternoon - I found three tops for myself on clearance - one was a t-shirt that was $1. I tried on a red v-neck shirt that was a XL and it was too big - I heard Nicole and Candra in my mind telling me it was too big - I didn't get it.

Yuck, have to go back to work tomorrow and this Friday isn't a furlough Friday. I booked my daughter's party at Sky High in Rancho Cordova for next Sat at 4:30 - if I am brave enough I may jump too. We are bringing a homemade cake with us and they provide the pizza and Water bottles. She is so excited and is passing out the invites tomorrow -kind of short turn around time, but at least they won't forget.

Better get up and make something for my kids for dinner - cooking was much more fun when I could eat all kinds of foods. I think I'll have --- tuna for dinner. :rolleyes:

hey there ladies, had a good day today. I went ahead and walked this morning....it was freezing but I made it and I'm so glad I did.

Tamra, yea I think you need to change things up a bit. Chris or Nicole, can't remember, I like that idea of doing a different amt of calories each day. That's got to help all of us at a plateau.

My husband is sitting here watching Nat Geo, Population zero. This is some funky stuff. They are talking about what the earth would be like after humans are gone...WOW...this is deep.

ok I'm drawing a blank...I need to go back a couple posts LOL

Lol. At least you told the group! You didn't just eat all that in shame.

I'm finding I have to remind myself that every calorie counts. Like somehow if I eat some shreaded cheese before I put it on my eggs, it doesn't count. Logical right?:rolleyes:

Just keep at it, don't get discouraged! Do some extra cardio tonight to make up for it.

Well I need to write down what I eat after every meal.......cause the last two days I start writing at night and than I can't remember what I eat for lunch!! Maybe it is the headaches.............but I serious can't remember the last two days what I ate for lunch..........

Breakfast is always the same to easy but I could be cheating big time and not even know it!! LOL.

From what I remember it is 940 yesterday and 990 today.......but I feel like I am forgetting something........Ahh

I love my turbo jam! But I don't do it that often, which is wierd. I usually do the bike or the elliptical at the gym. And I love my Wii Active. I should whip out the Turbo Jam again.

Ok girls, I'm feeling better about my band tonight. I don't know what was going on at lunch today but I was fine at dinner tonight. We went to my parents for Sunday dinner and my mom made chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes, caesar salad, asparagus and corn on the cob.

I was able to eat about 2-3 oz of the steak cut into pea-sized pieces and about 2 tbsp of the mashed potatoes and 1/2 a piece of asparagus (the tip that's less fibrous).

It took me about 15-20 minutes to eat it but I did fine and never got stuck or slimed. Cool, huh? I don't know what the heck was going on at lunch! We'll see how my band does tomorrow...it's a finicky little thing isn't it?

Good morning....everyone's so quite. Monday morning blues?

So I've vowed to have a good week, bringing my lunch everyday. I already had my Atkins shake and a few nuts for breakfast, now I have to hold out until lunch.

I've decided to tell my job about my hernia surgery today because I want to get the paperwork all filled out in advance. :biggrin:

ok, busy day, 4 people coming in for interviews. I'll check back with you all later.

      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.
