Okay! So I gained 7 lbs last week eating this delicious home-made muscadine jelly that I made from muscadines that my Dad picked! Oh, the horror! I can't eat bread so i decided to try it on club crackers, & yes, it was delicious! So, I vow to not eat any more of this %*#$*#^$ jelly! OMG! I hope I can do this! I've never had record breaking weight loss, but I have never gained either!

I... GAINED... 7... LBS... IN... 1... WEEK.....!!!

13 days since I had my caffeine....so if you walk by me sipping a mocha...prepare to feel the wrath of a man on the edge.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUGH!

Whew! I feel better now. Keep up the good work, y'all!

Okay I'm in. Since I am off to Mexico to visit my inlaws in 34 more days and I want to lose at least 20lbs more before then, I am going to give up refined sugar (is that what it's called like chocolate of things sweetened with sugar but not like natural stuff like fruit? ) Actually, forget it, this is already making my brain hurt. I will give up candy (easier to define) for 30 days!!! Good thing I just finished that Butterfinger, tomorrow will be day 1.

I gave up chips and salsa the first of October. I love them, but they were really getting the best of me. I haven't had any since the 1st, even though we had Mexican on Saturday. I have to admit, I picked up one and dipped it, then I actually handed it to my DH. Whew, that was a close call! If I ate the first one, I would have definately had a whole lot more!

Hmmmm...OK Betty- I'm starting to get the hang of this post thing, And I've gathered much of the shorthand. I understand LOL, and PB, and a few others...but I see "DH" a lot. I bet that stands for DEVOTED husband, or DEAR husband, or Dedicated husband...

Right? RIGHT?!?

Have a splendid day with your DH.

Day one of no chips/crackers, and I caved at 9pm!! I'm so mad and disappointed with myself...

Went to the store yesterday to get dinner stuff and grabbed a bag of potato chips because I needed an easy side for my visiting niece and nephew. I thought "oh, I'll be able to resist". Because I'm taking this 30 day thing seriously, I really am!!

Anyways, at about 9pm my DH and I were watching tv when in walked my 2 year old daughter. She had Water running down her face from her soaked hair. I quickly deduced that it had come from a dixie cup. Which she had dipped into the toilet downstairs. EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!! Granted, the toilet had been cleaned that morning, and it was flushed, but still! She's so cute, and I love her to death, but she came seriously close to being sold to the gypsies last night...

So anyways, I caved on my very first day. Pathetic! My first thought after I cleaned her up was to grab the bag of chips and eat until the pain stopped me.

I'm starting over today. DH finished the chips, and I'm not bringing anymore into the house.

I MUST STOP THE EMOTIONAL EATING!!!!!

*grumble* Poor DeLarla doesn't feel good and she's still not drinking soda. I've got no excuse!

I am going to earn my chip for exersize. I am going to say that I will do 4 days a week. I joined the gym last Tuesday and worked out Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I did not do Friday because I had a horrific day at work and decided I didn't have to go. My boyfriend laughed at me because I actually had a conversation with myself that I should go and it would make me feel better, but I didn't. Yesterday and I had a pounding headache, which I think is a pretty valid reason for not going. I can still get 4 days in this week also.

So today will be day 1 in abstaining from laziness.

Penni, I can host those images on my webspace if it will be helpful. I don't know how much bandwidth it would pull for those little things to be on the signatures, but if it doesn't go over what I'm allowed in the month, I'm cool with howevermuch it takes, my website is mostly for personal use anyway, no one really looks at it, lol.

OMG, black olives, green olives - any olives! I could live on them!

I'm on liquids for a few days, and it sucks. As far as hating me loving me hating me loving me, hell, it's my badass friends that get me through the toughest times. This isn't a time for cooing or coddles, this is serious. I'm afraid to drink a Coke now! Time to go Water down some Water for a lovely treat.

Day 1 was a no go for me. I went to bed about 2am this morning, and ate a Butterfinger at 1:30am. Then tonight I made an apple crisp and ate a piece with some ice cream. Tomorrow is another day, and it might be day 1 of no candy. We'll see.......l

      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.
