Topic: RE: Ready for the Long weekend??????
Hi Lisa,
I'm not doing so great. I've been on a binge the past few days and don't even dare weigh myself. I'm disappointed in myself, but I think I kind of had to get it out of my system.
I'm going to a BBQ today and having people over tomorrow, but I'm going back on Phase 1 of the SBD on Tuesday for sure......
Have a great holiday everyone!!
Hugs,
Nancy

Topic: RE: HELP Problems with gas
Hi Linda - I find if I eat too many sugar alcohols it produces a lot of gas that can last even 24 hours, so I try to steer clear of foods that are labeled 'sugar free' . I think since we're 'rewired' our systems react differently to foods, so maybe try and keep a journal and see which foods seem to cause you problems. When I'm having the problem, I use Gas-X tablets.
Congratulations on your fabulos weight loss. How are you doing it?

Topic: Ready for the Long weekend??????
Well, I am working today then I am off until Tuesday. I work from 830-130, then come home and am putting on a cookout birthday party for my nephew. I bought hotdogs, hamburgers, chicken. Of course there will be chips n dip and soda, and I also made a great big fruit salad. My mom is brining the cake, ice cream and some mac and cheese. So, there is plenty for me to make smart choices...ch. burg no bun, big cup of fruit salad, 2 tbs mac cheese. No cake or ic. So, I should be ok. Then that will be lunch and supper. Breakfast was Quaker BB weight control with fr. Maine wild blueberries. Tomorrow morning we are getting up early and having breakfast at Kracker Barrel, then going yardsaleing, then going to a fair a couple towns over. So, I wil be active enough.... How is everyone else looking???

Topic: RE: HELP Problems with gas
Hi Lisa and thanks for replying to my post. I know this is an embarrassing situation but I figured I could get the help here. Before surgery I weighed in at 350 lbs. I had my surgery July 14, 2004. My surgeon had told me I would lose about 140 lbs, I proved him wrong!!!! LOL But I had set my own personal goal, I wanted to lose 200 lbs and I am almost there, it has been a tough, hard journey but I have the support from my family and friends and I have almost achieved my goal. I have like 2 more lbs to go. Then it is just maintaining it, that should be fun LOL, well thanks for your help with my gas problems.........I do appreciate it.

CONGRATS!!! What a wonderful weight loss!!! What did you start at???
As for the gas, I have had problems since surgery, my surgery being 07/28/04. It comes and goes, but all of the sudden I will have to GO and I better get to the bathroom in 5 seconds or else. YES, I have had several accidents. There is NO warning sign. Also, when I am walking, or close to home in the car, or something, if I am too "relaxed" it will come on all of the sudden. A lot of the time I have to hold in the flatuence, which only makes my stomache kill. So, I do beleive that people have their problems with this. I know they sell things such as Gas X and Beano, have you tried these? Maybe asking the surgeon for advice?? Good to hear from you! Good Luck and hope to hear from you soon.

Hi Nancy...
Im glad youre on vacation!! I go the week of September 22nd, and I cant wait! The only thing is that Im anticipating it so much that once it gets here I know it will fly by!!!! Isnt it frustrating about putting on a few pounds? If I could show you what I ate last weekend, you would be amazed I gained 3 lbs. This morning I was 285, so still up 2 lbs. And, wouldnt you know it, I have been so hungry this week!!! I have done very well though. Im wondering if its been that I have been doing so well, that any "bad" foods I give my body it just turns right to fat. I dont know..
The meeting was very nice with my b i l. There were a mix of post and pre op folks. It went a little over an hour. Im hoping that we can go together every month!
I ended up having a small chilli with 7 appetizer things. They have 10 g prot, 6 gr sugar per 7.
Hope all is going well... Love Lisa

Hi everyone
I am having a problem with passing gas all the time. It just comes from no where does anyone have this problem?? Is there something I can take on a daily basis that will help with this problem? I will just be walking along and it will just come out from no where?? It can be quite embarrassing at times. Please hlep!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks everyone. One more thing, I have 3 more lbs to go and I will have a total weight loss of 200 lbs. I am so excited. It has taken me 4 yrs but I am getting there 1 lb at a time. Thanks for all the support I have gotten through the years from this website. I know I am not on here as often as I would like to be but I do check in occasionally. Good Luck to all!!!!

Topic: RE: Where is Everyone???
Hi Lisa - sorry I haven't been on in the past few days. I'm on vacation this week and I've been doing some painting. I thought I'd give myself a little break from the SBD and the scale. Well, I weighed myself this morning and I was 181!!! I can't believe a couple of days with pretzels and an ice cream cone and I gained five pounds!! It frustrates me that I have to be so strict and rigid just to maintain... never mind lose. Oh well, such is life.
Wonderful news about your BIL!!! I'm sure he appreciates your support.
Well, anyway, I'm getting back on board today and here's the plan:
B: eggbeaters, 1 sl. turkey bacon, V-8, coffee
S: zucchini or cucumbers with hummus
L: tossed salad with lite Jarlesberg cheese
D: salmon, tossed salad
S: ricotta cheese or yogurt with a tablespoon of cool whip
Hope everyone has a great day.
Hugs,
Nancy
