Girl, get mad, stomp your feet, and then take a deep cleansing breath and say... "I made a few mistakes, so what, I can do better!" And then just belive that it is a new day and that you can, and will, do better! I know you can do it girl! Dig deep down and find that resolve in yourself! *high fives* Go for it! and Hand in There!

Have a blessed holiday season, Jamie M. aka Lady Autumn or MagickalMom 257/151/146 Open RNY: January 19, 2005

Topic: Disgusted With Myself! :mad:

Anyone else been grazing all week? As of this morning I have gained 4 lbs. My workouts have seriously suffered the last month or 6 weeks also, they are few and far between so that does not help either. I really need to get my act together. You are all so inspirational I just neede to vent and do better!! I have almost another month before I am a year out, I can't be failing already! This is a life commitment, duh!! I haven't worked this hard to let it all go back the way it was! I also really need to get an updated photo up. I hope tht you all had a very merry holiday season with family and friends and I hope that you all got all that you wished for! Thanks for being out there! Becki 1/18/05 297/129 5'8"

Topic: RE: Ulcer 4 me I think???

I developed an ulcer 2 weeks after sx and I had sx on Jan 5th 2005 and I take Carafate and Prevacid everyday and still have the ulcer so I am going to have sx in Jan 12th 2006 to resect the ulcer so hopefully that will help. I know the pain you have it hurts like the dickens. I hope yours gets better. GOOD LUCK!!!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! Misty

Topic: Happy and loving Holiday to our extended family.

I just want to take a minute to wissh every one of our extended family the joyest and happiest holiday ever. These past 11 months have been some of the most interesting, challenging and emotional months I have ever spent. Without the love and support of my immediate family and all the love and support you all have shown for all of us I think our new lives and this journey would not have been as fruitfull. Success has not just been measured by the pounds we have lost but by all the wonderfull new family we all have acquired. You are always there for any of us that need comforting, answers, a good laugh or a shoulder to cry on. I thank each and every one of you. May you all be blessed with continued success in everythig you do.

Topic: RE: How much can you eat?

Mee too...after almost a 1 year I can eat sort of a normal portion. For instance I had a piece of Sole (fish) about a 5 oz portion and a small salad with lettuce and cucumbers and finished that no problem. But I had surger on the 13th of Dec and my sugeon found something called a BLIND POCKET !!! So now I know why I was able to eat sooo much more that I thought I should.Now it is aobut 1.5 wks after surgery and I had to stay on phase 1 food until yesterday. Boy oh boy...back to just a few tables spoons of food. So I think the days of eatingmore are gone for me for a while as my tummy learns to deal with only one pouch now. Oh well maybe I can get that last 22 lbs off now !! Kiva 369/217/195 22 lbs to goal !!

Topic: 100 lbs gone forever!!!!!

I did it!!! 100 lbs down! I almost fainted! I had to check 8 times. I even stood on the scale with the cat to make sure that it was not broken. WOW!!! I am so excited!!!! I went from a 22/24 to a size 10. I can remember last year thinking that there was no way that I would be this small by now. Boy was I wrong. Hope everyone has a happy holiday!

Topic: RE: How much can you eat?

glad to hear I am not the only one who can eat alittle more. This afternoon I had part of a panni form Penera bread, I was able to eat a little more then a third of it. 6 months ago eating any of it would have been hard. I do not want to try the no carbs thing, I really think fruits and vegis are so improtant to health. But after suday I will not have bread and non fruit or vegi carbs. Not so much because I have not been losing weight, I still am, slower but losing. But because I do not like the way I feel when I have them. Unfortuntly this time of year, that seems like all that is around. It makes me fear of falling back into bad habbits. Especialy when I say things like after Christmas this is going to stop. Anywho Jenn

Topic: RE: How much can you eat?

It seems like it is holding more and more. I ate a whole McD's sausage biscuit this morning. Several months ago, I could eat only a half. I have noticed also that my weight loss has stopped right around the time that it seems my belly can hold a little more. I did loose a total of 133lbs. After Christmas I am going to try the no carb thing to just start my weight loss again, and of course work out a little harder. I am at 5'9" and 183 right now, I would like to get down to 165. Well take care! Kimberly
