someone, pls. tell me to get off my ass and go to the gym

esp. since i seem to be eating more this week than all you december babies combined

come on girl, it's time to stop being lazy and get your behind moving. Enough is enough............ jejejjejeje... I should be saying the same to myself but I just too tired to go walking today, besides, they said it was gonna rain.....

Let's see what you ate and we'll decide. I think I'm the big hog out of the group and I never go to the gym so what's my excuse???

I can't cast stones, I live in a glass house...

i don't even know what i ate this week. my only excuse is bad PMS. as of today, i'm good though and back to counting (even though will still be eating out/drinking wine socially and champagne w/my ex until i fly back to philly sunday--our best vacation ever was champagne tasting in Epernay, France 4 years ago). as of monday, though, i'm back home and will have to face the scale and will be eating no more than 1200 cals a day (hopefully) and not drinking alcohol (with the exception of champagne at new years, of course, but that does not count

Hang in there and eat lots and lots of fruit.....I have been shoving grapes in my mouth like they are going out of style lately!!!! There are lots of temptations around these days!!!! Megan

Hey Megan.. I notice if I eat "lots of fruit" especially high glycemic index fruits (those that bring blood sugar up and have more natural occuring sugars) really affects my appetite.. I cannot do grapes, watermelon, etc.. I have to keep it to mainly berries and if I do an apple (medium index fruit) I have to pair it with cheese or peanut butter to keep my blood sugar from going up and then crashing down.. sigh.. I am envious of you guys who can eat those fruits.. I can do maybe 5 grapes but only after I have had some protein.. all meals have to include protein or I am screwed.

Hi, Natalie... I have to admit that I haven't exercised in over a month or two. I wish that I could offer you an answer. I do plan to start walking again, during my visit to see relatives in Florida. You look so fit and trim. Just being nosey... do you think that you will need PS or has everything basically firmed-up? After I lost weight using a Optifast years ago, my shape was fine... I was about 33 then. At almost 51, no such luck... skins hanging everywhere. I was wondering if age plays a big part in if PS is needed. Any help is appreciated... Ro

Hi Ro, actually, i git very lucky and basically everything snapped back into place. i do notice i little cellulite on the back of my things but no worse than any non-op person my age (i'm 32). i don't look perfect nude but nothing that warrants PS. everyone is different and i think in my case i just got very lucky because i was only that overweight for 4 years and i guess my skin still remembered the trimmer me.
