Topic: LYN!!! (fishbowl)
Hi Lyn -- hope you see this -- it was so good to hear from you -- but I can't figure out how to reply back thru the OH messageboards. My email is [email protected] -- please get in touch with me, I would love to talk with you again! You've been missed. :-) -BJ p.s. I hardly ever post anywhere on OH anymore . . . a bunch of formerly-obese women bullying for position around here is not really my thing.
Topic: RE: HELP I NEED 2 LOSE 10-15LBS & NEED A WORKOUT
Hi -- I rarely check this June 2004 board anymore -- was wondering how the WW points program was working for you?
I also have 15-20 pounds of regain that I'd like to lose and am having a horrible time of it. I keep losing and gaining the same 10 pounds over and over. Considering joining WW or another commercial program for oversight.

Topic: RE: HELP I NEED 2 LOSE 10-15LBS & NEED A WORKOUT
Hope you aren't still waiting for us post post-ops to get back to you before you did something. geez. :-) I haven't been on this in years. I have gained 35-40lbs. I just joined WW points plus to try and at least get 15-20 off. I probably got down 15 more then i really should have been so that is acceptable to me. I have to weigh in weekly for accountability. I have lost 4.4 pounds (I know, amazing results! ha!) and really have to stick to it. I have started walking again. I also have stopped trying to see just what sugary snacks i could get away with before getting sick. SO hopefully you are back on track and i am trying to get there! Good luck to you!!!!!

Topic: RE: New year, new direction . . .
Hey BJ!
Still here. Been hanging out on R & R, mostly. Not posting very much.
I'm with ya on the weight gain...damn close to 190 myself. Life just got in the way I guess. I had a psycho ex, stalking me. Had to get a restraining order, oh how fun was that....I'm also losing my house, foreclosure starts any day....It's so bad here in California, there are empty houses every where! Empty store fronts, people going out of business, it's pretty bad. I have the honor of living in the county where our foreclosure rate is HIGHEST in the nation, not just California. Yeah, I'd say that "life" just got smack dab in the way!!!
Anyway, it's a new year and with that brings new hope for a MUCH better year. Let's hope that 2010 cuts us some slack!! Personally, I'll be relieved to just find a cute little rental, that when the toilet breaks, I can call the landlord! I SO don't give a **** about being a homeowner anymore. California and it's bull**** politics, sucked that right outta me! Obama bailed out the banks and now they won't pass it on to the people. I tried for a loan modification twice and was turned down because of "lack of hardship". According to Chase bank, "I should be able to pay my bills". Um, yeah sure...
Gawd, don't get me started....Excuse me for going on and on about this but I think it definitely contributed to my weight gain. UGH!!!!!!! Now I just want this over with....
I hope you have a better year as well. The weight should come right back off, we just need to buckle down and do it....Our tool is still there! I'm glad you posted, let me know how you're doing.
Take care,

Topic: New year, new direction . . .
Well happy 2010 everybody! I am personally hopeful that *this* decade is an improvement over the last one!
Where are all the Junebugs?
I've spent the last two months eating myself back up to a whoppping 191 pounds as of this morning. Been feeling the gain in my clothing for a few weeks now, kept telling myself that I'd get back on track with the New Year.
So . . . here I am , starting over.
How's everyone else??

Topic: This is what I had for breakfast and it was SOOOOO GOOD! Try it:
I want to share one I just invented this morning. This is what I had for breakfast and it was SOOOOO GOOD! Try it:
- 1/2 cup Fiber One Complete Pancake Mix (mix with water as directed)
- sprinkle some pumpkin pie spice in the batter
- slice 1/2 a small banana into the batter
- cook as directed (you can make one big pancake or 2 small ones)
- Top with sugar free syrup
- the rest of the banana sliced
- 2 tablespoons of Lite Whipped Topping (only 20 calories)
- some sliced almonds
OMG! It was sooo good! Hope you try it and enjoy. This will def. keep me full until lunch. I may not even need a snack today. Lol.
