Topic: RE: Stuck again.
Amber-
I'm not stuck yet, but I hear that month three is a common "stuck" time for us. Remember to continue or increase your exercise too...it's all three that get us where we're going.
I gained a pound one day last week (I'm bad, I weigh everyday still) and got a bit worried, but it was gone the next day...I tend to hover around a number just before I chunk down again. I'm at 65 down as of this morning and that was after our weekend in Lexington where my food choices have been not so great!
Keep the faith...I'm sure you're doing great!

Topic: Stuck again.
Hey Guys, I'm not getting too down about this, but I've stalled once again, I was just curious if anyone else has? I actually gained a few pounds there, but I weighed in at exactly 60 pounds again this morning. I just plan on beefing up my protein and water this week, hopefully I'll drop some pounds on Friday. I'm doing my measurements on Wednesday as well, I know that has improved ALOT!!!
I'm fine, just curious. Hope you all had a great weekend.

Topic: RE: Carnie Wilson on Oprah today!
Im with u Rebecka, I didnt think it was negative...it was very factual. If u dont deal with what made us fat we will transfer our addiction to another one. Over the yrs Oprah has had several shows that were positive on wls. She also has on her web site now shes looking for positive wls now to do a show in the near future.
So all those that were upset about the first show should email her and tell her their story....Im looking forward to seeing the next show shes doing on wls.
