Topic: RE: I think about food all the time.
Hi Lori. It sounds like it might be a stage we are all getting too because I am always munching and hungry too. Just when my weight stall lifted and I have been losing weight the past two months. And then this past month, I just want to eat all of the time. I do not know why or what is going on. I am trying to "snack" healthy. I primarily snack on fat free pretzels at least once a day. But (and a biggg BUT), I have learned about sugar free candy/chocolate. So, I have been snacking on SF turtles ane SF choclate chip cookies ..etc. And that is not going over well. I actually went through two containers of SF cookies in one day a couple of weeks ago. That is when I knew i had lost my self control. So, I got it all out the house. Whcih worked o****il I decided to get them agian and just try to eat one or two every few days. It isn't working very well because they are just sooo good. I am upset at myself for it and am really going to try and do better. I hope it is just a stage and that it passes quickly!!!

Lori,
I get the hungries too. Honestly, it really scares me that I still get that way. I am going back to snacking on protein. That may not be the best for me calorie wise, but it is better than carbs. So chees sticks, cottage cheese, protein drinks, and chicken legs here I come!
Hang in there...

Lori,
i do have days like that, AARGH! must get back to the basics of protein first then the other stuff, the more carbs you allow, the hungrier you will be, i find that if i eat pasatas or potatoes that i am really a lot hungrier, but they are soooooooo good! i will usually have a day that is mostly protein after a day high in carbs, seems to help me get the control back. dont let the food monster win, you have come too far to go in the backward direction! good luck, teri

I have gained 4 pounds and I always feel hungry. I am hoping it is PMS weight gain, or the normal up and down fluctuations I have been experiencing, but I am worried about the trend. I know I need to get my protein back up again. I just don't seem to like much meat anymore--which has lead me to be anemic as well.
Things are getting so bad that when I wake up in the middle of the night, I am thinking about what I am going to eat for breakfast. I am finding that I am grazing more and more in the evening. I had two breakfasts this morning, cereal and then a 1/2 baked potato with tzatiki sauce when I got to work. The only protein that made it in my mouth was the cereal milk.
Aarrrgh! I feel so out of control.

Topic: RE: Birthday Pictures!!!
You look wonderful. Wow, I cannot imagine a size three. I did get into an 8 the other day...but to be honest, most of my clothes are 10 - 12. At 5' 6", I don't think I'd want to be a three, well maybe.
You look "HOT". Congratulations and Happy birthday and soon to be sugiversary.

Carolyn,
Congrats on your PS date. We've come a long way, Baby!! Please keep us posted on how you do. I'm starting to look into that for myself as well as the thigh lift and boob job. Didn't think I would ever go do down this road but there's nothing left there!!
Enjoy your vacation - great timing for recovering.
It's really good to see you.

Topic: RE: Anyone taking anti-depressents?
I've been taking Wellbrutin which works well for me. Before the operation I was on Zoloft and Wellbrutin. I hated the Zoloft. Weight gain, low sex drive. I stopped taking it without asking the doctor simce I hated it so much.
Wellbrutin seems "light" and I don't know of side effects (on my self).
