Topic: I saw Melissa!
Hi everyone - the board is so slow....I saw Melissa last night - I had recorded Half Ton Teen and just had the chance to watch it. Melissa - you look awesome! I told my husband about your success and that we had surgery in the same month. He thought you looked great as well.
Keep us posted on your show's debut - I really want to watch it.
Have a great day!

Topic: RE: considering revision
I have had 2 babies since surgery. I gained with each pregnancy and did not take it all back off. In total I am up about 50 pounds from lowest weight.
I visited my surgeon about 2 months after the baby was born and he was please that I had kept off the amount of weight I did. He suggested 1100 calories a day. I am nursing baby #2, constantly hungry and not losing any weight. I really wanted to lose the weight before getting pregnant again. That is not happening. I am afraid to "diet" for fear of losing my milk supply before the baby is ready to start on solids. And my all or nothing mentality is hurt by 'not' dieting.

Topic: Wasssssssssssssssup?
Hi everyone! Just a quick note, I see the board here is basically non existant now, but I totally understand. I'm not able to check on it with any regularity either when I'm in the middle of classes BUT I'm on break now for a few weeks again and the end is in sight. I graduate in December! YAY!!! Damn it's been a long road!
And speaking of long roads ... I, like most of the people here, seem to be struggling with a weight gain, substantial weight gain that is. I have 30 lbs to lose (20 at the very, very, very least). Totally my own fault of course. When I'm busy the first thing that goes is the gym and this time I didn't make up for that by doing the treadmill here at home, or more walks with the dogs, or cutting down on food. Also been doing a lot of comfort foods too from stress. It's actually scary as hell that even after years of doing the 'right' thing, the years and years of being a fat chick always wins out. I honestly think it always will. :-(
So the plan is ... Monday I start the liquid diet portion again (exactly like immediate post op). I'm going to search out some nasty protein powder today! Also starting back into my gym routine which I need badly too because it's water ski/wakeboard season in a few weeks and I need that upper body strength back!!! My goal is to do this for a month and we'll see where the weight ends up and what's next. I'll keep you guys updated here and there (Mainly just so I have someone I have to check into besides my family!) and get some pix on this new account. I couldn't remember my old information!
Hope everyone is doing well :-)
Hugs and stuff,
Renee

Topic: Hello and FB
Hi everyone. I try to get here when I can, but I find it hard. I have become a great fan of facebook and wonder if any of you are on it? I would love to keep up with you all there. It is easy for me to do so, as I can do it on my phone and check often each day, also it sends me IM's and texts when someone messages me there. To use this site is hard, even on my iphone.
I am doing real well, I think. I had the stomach virus a week ago and have had a hard time getting back to eating. Although I didn't throw up, my stomach has been angry at me. I seem to have lost about 10 lbs. at least in 2 weeks. Still not eating alot. Trying to though. I don't think I should loose anymore, especially this way. Never thought I would say that.
But other than that, we haven't been hit by the economy thing. My son is getting married. My daughter is starting to work and is actually getting her HS diploma after many years. So pretty good here. Hope people come around more and maybe we can meet up on facebook.
I am Kristi mealey heckman there
