Wednesday Coffee Talk

Good Wednesday morning everyone.  It is great to be here this morning and great to be alive.  I have been up since 2:30 a.m.  I fell asleep pretty early and woke up.  Couldn't go back to sleep so I have been up reading.  Hope you slept good.

Our challenge today is to eat right.  We know how we are to eat.  We've gone through consultations, read on THIS board and on other forums, and we know how and what to eat.  If you catch yourself putting something in your mouth that you shouldn't, realize what you are doing.  One small bite might lead to a larger serving or wanting more of something you shouldn't eat.  Been there, done that.  We all have.  Let's not fall back into our old habits.  Lets eat like we are suppose to.  Are you with me today?  Everyday!  RIGHT!?  We can do this!

So, who's up?  What cha sipping on?  Me?  I'm loving me some Blueberry Muffin coffee this morning and it is sooooo good.  You gotta try this stuff.

Y'all have a wonderful day as you watch what you eat.  Be blessed!

Morning Randall ~

Thanks for the awesome challenge...  I hope and pray for inner strength to adhere to it.  Havent been very mindful on what I am stuffing in my mouth lately..   Wishing you a great day!!

Good morning my friend!  I'm praying you have a great day yourself.  Love yas!

Thanks for the well needed challenge.  I am soooo guilty of having a snack or something that perhaps wasn't so good for me.  Then I get frustrated when I don't lose weight.  I am just sabotaging myself...can't blame anyone or anything else.  So thanks for the kick in the booty to get back on track with eating ONLY the foods that are nutritionally good for me.  NO MORE JUNK.  I am not believing that I dumped on an apple last night...for real.  I figured it was a healthy snack but boy did it have other plans...and I rarely dump on anything.  It was not a pleasant thing.  But I am back to feeling just fine today.

I am sippin on my favorie capuccino.  Just a small cup...don't need too much caffeine (then I would have a coffee crash mid-morning).

Have a blessed day.  I am sooo glad this week is half way over.  I am ready for another weekend (all those days off over the holidays really spoiled me).

sandi, I'll tell you how you can avoid those old nasty caffine crashes. Drink 2-3 cups of coffee every waking hour and you won't ever have to put up with a single crash. No need to thank me, I'm just here to help. That will also help you get plenty of fluids in. If you use cream in your coffee it will help get all your calcium in. Now another thing it helps is with your exercise. If you drink as much coffee as I do(20-30 cups a day) you will get plenty of exercise running to the bathroom every 15 minutes. See I've sat here and solved your problem in no time at all. Anytime you have any problems just let me know and I'll help you solve all lifes problems just as easy. I can't understand why more people don't make use of my vast knowledge. It isn't like I'm busy or anything.I've got 20 waking hours a day to keep busy. So you just go have another capuccino, or two. And don't feel guilty about drinking it. Love you, Miss Mary

I wish I could enjoy more than one cup, but too much caffeine makes me jittery...it doesn't mix well with some of the medications I am on.  I rarely have more than that one cup with my husband each morning.  I see people drink coffee all day and all night and still sleep...I would NEVER get any sleep if I drank coffee like that.  And as much as I like my tea, it's just as bad.  I have to limit my intake of that at night or I won't sleep.

But I do appreciate your very wise advice.  Next time I have a problem...I know exactly who to ask!

Good morning my dear brother!!!!  I have been doing the pouch test this week with some on the OFF Board.  So far...So good.  I am eating an egg right now and boy is it great!!!!  I am praying that I can get these pounds off.  I still have about 30 to go and want it gone!!!  You are so right...we have to watch what we are doing or we will be right back where we were before WLS.  I saw a man on the Biggest Loose last night that had WLS and had gained all of his weight back.  It can happen if we are not careful.  God has allowed me to have this tool and I have to take care of it now.  You have a great great day!!!  I love ya!!
