Topic: RE: Best Exercise for toning muscles
I was actually told by my Dr. that we are not to tone until 6 months out. I would still like to find out this information for when I do get to that point. Congratulations on your weight loss.

Topic: RE: Have U had any alcohol?
My future sister in law's bachlorete party was last night and I decided to have a small glass of wine with dinner....not a problem! Then when we went out after I thought I would try cranberry and vodka (I've seen a lot of people talk about it on here as a "good" drink to start on) went down great and a lot of things make me sick. It did hit me super fast but hey thats good.....I am a cheap date now. No hangover today either. I was able to have 1 1/2 drinks. So drink up. (distilled liquor such as vodka has 0 carbs!!!)

Topic: Best Exercise for toning muscles
I had my surgery 6-25-04 started at 253.5 now 215 - I am a 56yrs young and at the point where I need to get serious/start toning my muscles especially the booty and arms - does anyone out there have any ideas or sources I can check out?

Topic: RE: Have U had any alcohol?
I think I will wait for the martini.....I would rather get the weight off first. But if I am going to have bad hangovers....maybe I will forget them all together. Thanks for the info.

Mary! congratulations! I'm inspired...I will probably hit the 100's sometime mid 2005 and that sounds so far away. Each pound is one closer. You should go buy yourself something wonderful to wear so you'll remember this moment when you find it falling off of your little body!
Go get em'

Topic: RE: 4 month updates ?
Hi every one of my June buddies !! My surgery was June 1st. I was 292lbs. when I started and I'm down to 212 lbs. !! Never in my life have I lost sooooo much weight !! I have to pinch myself to believe it . I have slowed down though, it is coming off very slowly now. Only 4-8 lbs. a month.. But, that's OK with me I am still going in the right direction...
Topic: RE: Everything taste like crap!
Hey Courtney... (I'm a July girl, but your post just struck me.)
I know what you mean. The first bite of whatever it is tastes good, but after that, it is all downhill. I can barely get it down.
I had tender, beautiful pot roast for lunch. It smelled so good. One bite... and yucky!
In a way I hate this, and in a way I hope this never stops.

Topic: RE: Some one encourage me Please!!!
There ya go girl!! You need to try to have a good additude! I think what I am going to do with this grazing is do a day or two with just protien shakes and liquid just to try to detoxify (sp?) my body. We'll see how long I can do it for today.
Wish me luck!
