Topic: RE: BIG Appetite!
Clarissa! I soooo know what you are talking about! I have been ravenous the past two months! But... for the last week or so, it seems to have tapered off. I am wondering if this is just our bodies getting more used to eating or something. But I totally feel your pain! I have been eating alot of watermelon and cantelope. It's mostly water so it is easy to eat alot. It adds up on the calories but the way I see it, I didn't get fat on fruit!
Good luck to you sweetie!

Yeah, it sucks bad! Your situation was alot worse by far. It just makes me so mad that we can't do anything about it in our situation. My husband is gonna change our vehicles around and try and catch the little p#$&k. Wait in the darkness with a baseball bat and slam the door on him and tell him, "GO AHEAD, GET OUT!!!" And then call the cops! But where we live, it will take the cops almost an hour to get there. They do patrol the area but always seem to be no where to be found when you need them! We had a guy break into our house in the middle of the night once. He was high or drunk or something and was gonna take a snooze on my couch! My husband quietly got him to leave, we didn't want to wake the kids, and it took the cops 1 1/2 hours to get there. We could have all been dead by then! But I love where we live. No traffic, lots of trees, but also lots of crime. We are considering moving in the next 5 years. We are currently buying our house and can't really afford a higher house payment. Maybe by the time the kids have graduated tho...

Topic: BIG Appetite!
OH MY GOD! Why is it that I want to eat all the time now? It seems like I am hungry every 1-2 hours. I get all my protien and water, so I don't know what's going on, other than stress. This has been going on for about two months though. I feel like I am well on my way to being a WLS failure if I don't change my habits. I finally called my surgeon today and asked if I could take something to curb my appetite. All I got was "You don't need to do that.", with no real reason for me not to do so. Does anyone else know why? I have an appointment this Thursday, so maybe that will help.

Glad you had a safe trip and good job on the weight loss! My weight dropped somewhat recently also, so that's always good! You're so close to goal - awesome!

Sucks to have something stolen from your own house doesn't it? My car was stolen from my yard last October on a Sunday night. I was up nursing the baby and I heard him. The idiot left his car in front of my house, so the policeman knew exactly who he was. Can we say dumb???!!! A high speed chased ensued and he wrecked my car. Of course they found drugs in my car, he told them that they were mine. I asked the detective, "Do I look like I take crack"? I weighed around 250 then. I mean really!!
At least they caught him and he is in jail, but it still sucks to feel so violated.

WOW. You are so skinny!! You look great, Tamela. I can't wait until I am "normal". My "girls" are not as full as they used to be either. I am still a C cup, but they are laying down on the job if you know what I mean? As far as the husband - my husband and I are arguing a lot. He does compliment me though. I just think we have been under a lot of stress or maybe I have a lot of resentment towards him and just discovering it?!????
Anyway, Great Job!!

Hiya Tam!
I did get some exercise over the long weekend. I cleaned my entire house on Thursday. Went and had my hair done on Friday and did some shopping. Saturday we went to Lowe's to pick up some stuff and then came home. Put up a door to my laundry room on Saturday and installed motion lights outside. We got robbed twice in two weeks! My husband's car was broken into and the speakers went first, and then the stereo. No way we will ever get it back. And no way we will ever catch who did it. ****** me off! So our next investment is a fence all the way around the property. That way we can let our big dogs run loose and NO ONE will get in.
Yesterday my daughter and I walked 2 miles after dinner. It was nice to get a long chat in with her. Then I took her driving... She got her permit on Friday and starts driver's ed on June 12th. I am freakin out that I have a child that old!
Anyhoo... no walk today. I have a tanning appt instead. I will walk Wed and Friday this week (plus Monday too). I might even walk Thurs too.. we will see...
Take care all you lovlies,

Shanna!
You look very nice.... you are one of those people who was very beatiful to start with inspite of your weight because of how pretty your face was, but now you certainly look nice and healthy too. Great job, Shanna. You should be very proud of what you've done with WLS on your side
hugs, Rita
