Topic: RE: FRIDAY SHOUT OUT!!
Hey, I come by here everyday just to look,,sometimes I post,. sometimes not, depending on if I feel I have anything relevant to say! LOL
I agree, lets keep this board alive, I for one need all the support I can get. Yes, I worry all the time about waking up fat again!
Lately I have been grazing and eating the wrong stuff, just cause I have been busy and didnt want to stop and really cook,,so I grab whatever is handy. Its usually wrong. And I never seem to get my water in,,Im so SICK of water!!!!
But Im trying harder! Today I took my vitamins first thing, and now I feel really crummy. I should have eaten first!
Ok,,lets meet here every morning with our coffee, or shake,or whatever!! I usually do that on the other forums Im on,,and its great fun and a nice way to start the day.
My weekend is gonna be a busy one. Church tonight, husband is preaching,,and my daughter and son in law from out of town are coming in, may spend the night. Then tomorrow is my granddaughters 1st birthday. That should be fun. Then Sunday is church twice, so I get to dress up four times!! I have so many new clothes and not enough places to wear em! Man I hate that....NOT!!!
Its till cold here, but warmer than it was..around 20, supposed to get down to 5 tonight. BRRRRRR!
Well, have a great weekend everyone!!
Blessings

Topic: RE: My husband and I wor...
Hi Koukla, well I've told you all before that my husband has gained since I have been losing. And I feel so bad for him. I can't say anything because he never ever said anything to me. And also I know that it doesn't do any good for anyone else to say things to you, you have to do it yourself. But my husband is definitely not a jealous person. He acts flattered when I get attention!! Go figure!
Greg doesn't really try to get me to eat more, I guess he has seen me puke too many times to know that isn't a good idea. But I know that he misses his eating partner. He'll call me from work and say 'would you like to meet for dinner, or that isn't really a fun thing for you anymore'. I always say yes (although it doesn't mean much to me) and try to join in!! It's weird, this surgery. Reallly has changed my way of eating.
I think Koukla, when those people say that, you ought to just put your arm around your husband and say 'I love this guy just like he is'!!
love

Hi Betsy, oh my go****otally know what you're saying. Yes, I do look like my mom as I get older. She is a very nice looking lady though, and doesn't look her age, so I am happy about that. In fact both my daughters have said many times they want to look like me and my mom!! But sometimes, this is funny, I look at my arms, and I just don't like the way they look. Not the top flab, but the forearm. My viens stand out!! Weird.
Have a good weekend!
love

ah honey, I totally hear you. You are doing so good, you have stuck with it, you are so diligent about your eating, and walking, and now taking care of yourself in preparation for a little one. You're doing great Shel, and I am going to promise you, right here, that I will be on this board every day for you (except maybe Sunday) and want you to feel my support.
Yes, of course, we all know how to do this. But does that mean we don't need support - naw, we still need it.
That's crazy about getting up so early for that kid. Drop them!! Let them find someone else. You have other kids that you're watching don't you?
love

You are so funny, DOnna!!
About faces,,do ya ever look at yourself in the mirror in the mornings and think,,who is that?? I usually do,,or else I think,,its my mom in there!! Some days its a "me" morning,,others its a ""mom,,,oh well,,I always thought she was pretty,,,but she was OLD!!!!
Well, I guess I should accept the fact that I will be 60 in a few weeks. I sure dont feel that old!
Anyway,,enough rambling...
GOOD MORNING TO YA!
Blessings

Topic: My husband and I wor...
My husband and I work together and I think he may be a little jealous. He's 5'10 and weighs about 210 pounds and holds it in his upper body.
The last few nights (working the dinner shift) people have been coming up to us and asking him when he's going to start to lose his weight...............
He doesn't seem too happy about it. He does try, just like we all tried before.
And I do notice he does try to make me eat more than I want to. When I finish he'll tell me I have to have more because that wasn't enough. HELLO...... I tell him I'm still in the 180's and that I could go down a little more and he says No the rest is extra skin. you're skinny enough..............
Anyone else seeing this with their husbands or significant other?
thanks,
Koukla
Topic: 2 days to weigh in..
Have you been good to yourself this week ?
Remember today is all that matters and yesterday is already gone, you can't live in tomorrow because it isn't here yet.
If you think about it tomorrow will never be here because we always wake up in a brand new today... sooooo...Today IS all that matters really.
Be nice to yourself today , you worked hard to get to this point and you deserve it
Sunday will be weigh in again and everyone has to do it even Linda cus she said she would this week...lol

I'm having a moody I don't care day...
I was suppose to be up at 4 am for someone to drop off a child to be babysat, at 6 am they still hadn't showed.
I'm still almost 300 lbs and nowadays it seems I have NO support, The people in my physical world could watch me eat 3/4 of a chocolate cake ( not that I could or would) and just blow it off ..oh your pregnant it's for the baby it's okay....As far as this board family I feel like everyone is either at or so close to goal they no longer need the support I do , or at least it feels that way cuz no one posts anymore
I feel like the last person in a marathon and everyone else finished so they just went home , If i quit and just went home would anyone even notice ?
Oh well I'm done whining , and as my so called friend pointed out I been doing this for almost 18 months if I don't know how to do it by now I never will so I shouldn't expect people to put thier life on hold cuz I don't keep up...Sorry
Shel
