Where is everyone??

Of course just when I am feeling lost and need some support from all my Novembers...where are you??? LOL! I need an eating plan! My nutritionist sucks!! Oh well. Hope everyone is enjoying their new bodies! My appetite has come back...I dont like that! Maybe I am not eating enough? HMM!!!

I'm here! I'm beating myself up for eating badly this weekend on vacation. My appetite comes back from time to time, but not every day.

Hey Autumn,

I'm here...I'm here!!!! And I'm definitely enjoying my new body and being I'm 5 pounds from "Onderland" I'm excited!! It has been quite the journey and I too am starting to get my appetite back.. Being that we're both 4 months out now my nutrionist says we should be getting in at least�1000�calories daily. Are you counting calories? Lord knows I'm not. I think I'm getting too much from time to time and the guilt kicks in. It's not that I eat a lot, but I'm always hungry every 2 hours, so I snack a lot. Because I hardly ever dump, sometimes my snacks aren't the greatest or healthiest. I need a major refocus. I'm starting the Weigh****chers program online, so hopefully this will redirect me. I still have carb addictions that I need to settle. Other than that the weight is pouring off.

Thanks ladies for being here! Sorry I was out of town in LA this past weekend! Wow 1000 calories...seriously I never get that in! I am hungry now..before I was never hungry at all then it was like a flood! But to me eating more than a 1/4 cup is alot now LOL!!! Any ways...I have been eating salad alot and salsa...I do still have a weakness for chips..but I buy the baked tostitos! I can eat about 4 of those with salsa...that is my favorite. Meat seems to be a no go...chicken, beef...it just doesnt work! I am thinking of changing my goal to 130! We will see how it goes!

I am here! about 3 weeks late..maybe

 I have not posted here in a while, thought I would start

Today is going pretty good, except for me ruining my Cream of Wheat! Errr! Its okay because I ended up eating peanut butter on wheat bread. YEAH!!!!!!!!!

I started a new BP med yesterday, and can tell the diffrence already. Not sure why I was diagnosed with HB after having the surgery. I have lost about 100 lbs, and still on the HB meds....its okay because my health is alot better than 5 months ago thats forsure!

Having issues with hair shedding ! I have started to take Biotin and Zinc! I am praying something good comes out of it. I hear that it could be months before the shedding stops.  I have been telling my support folks, and family that I think I am Hulk Hogan's sister..... We share receeding hairline.

I enjoy the Support Group in Rockford, IL on Monday! We have a good group of folks.  I just only wish that I could go to my surgeons support group, who have a huge amount of DSERS like myself.  Sometimes I think its nice to share like stories. Dont get me wrong, I like attending the Rockford Group....


Well thats all for today.

I'm here!  I'm struggling like crazy to lose weight though!  I've been pretty much since month 4!  I've only lost 6 pounds since march 12th.  I'm happy to be 179 but, I have a really long way to go and hope this isn't it!!! 

My weight loss has slowed down..I think I only loose a week out of the month...it has me down a little. I am up 2 lbs and then down 2lbs. Now it is time to work, work ,work! LOL! I just want to get to onederland!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
