Topic: RE: How's everyone doing?
I'M LOVING IT, WOOOOHOOOO, at minus 70 lbs. I can't ask for more. I'm not eating that much but I try to eat as healthy as possible. My hair is falling like crazy, that's a little sacary. I'm walking 4 times a week for 30 minutes, but is getting a little boring so I'm planing to do 2 days of aerobics and 2 of walking.

Topic: Sorry to not have posted in such a long time....
I have found such a great place to hang out...the Texas Message board. I got to meet allot of the people in person at the convention last weekend , and decided to check it out. I have been so comfortable here with all my people that are post-op the same amount that I am. You guys are all so awsome, and all doing so well. If some time goes by with out me popping in, go look for me on the TExas board.
Love to all keep on losing!

Hello to all!
Things are going great for me. At 3 1/2 months, I have lost 71 pounds, but I think that at least 20 of that is my hair!!
Seriously, I know that the hair will grow back because when I did optifast several years ago, I lost a lot then (both weight and hair) and it all came back (both weight and hair)
I would definitely recommend this surgery now, but no way would I recommend it for the first 1 1/2 months.
I am regularlay exerising at Curves 3 times a week and am also walking.
Down in size from 28w jeans to 18W and shirts from 3X to 1X or even some XL.
Life is truly good. Love you all!!!!!

Topic: RE: JUST QUIT IT ALREADY!
This tool is great. I believe the prayers helped too. Got it under control quickly. I think I did have quite a few carbs.....I ate taco salad (twice), chicken chow mein, melon, sunflower seeds, a couple of sugar free cookies, and some strawberries. It seemed like I ate quite a bit of the taco salad but last night at the support group, someone said shredded lettuce is one of those things we seem to be able to eat more of. Maybe it just looked like allot of food but it was sure allot more than I have been eating everyday.
Topic: RE: can't push below the 2...
