The scale dosent lie afterall...

Good cold morning to everyone. This is week 5 of my new diet after seeing a nutritionist. I have had no bread, pasta, potatoes or sugar. I got on the scale and I am down 13 lbs and about 100 more to go.. I am happy but it has been hard. I will continue this as I am trying to get healthy. Hopefully I will be able to do the lapband soon. I am so scared of failing as I have done so many times before. I look at you all and see great sucess. I hope to be there one day. I feel the joy from all of you and its amazing that it all revolves around our weight. Great job done by all of you. Thanks to all who have tried to support me and answer all my questions it really means alot... Sorry to ramble so long....Have a great day.....

Congrats on your weight loss!  You have an amazing optimism.  I admire it.  I had the hardest time while I was waiting for my surgery.

Julie, Congratulations on your success to date. That is terrific. The fear you mention is quite real and normal. After all, we have been through so much until this point. Harness the fear and use it to help you stay the course. You will get there and you will never look back again! I have faith in you. Look at all you have done already! Good job!

Oh Julie that is so fantastic!! I am so proud of you for staying on task. Remember to stay focus and reach for the stars!!!  I am so proud of you honey.
Remember that we are all here for you and you are not rambling.  You are sharing your big WOW moment with us.

Congrats on losing the 13 pounds you will do fantastic.

Hugs,

Julie -

How WONDERFUL!!!!!  You deserve a HUGE hug for taking control of your life, rather than letting food and obesity continue to control yours.  As you've discovered, it's NOT easy - I don't want to lie and say that it ever WILL be - but it IS infinitely rewarding.

Keep up the good work and know that we're behind you, 100%!!!!

Hugs,

Tia

Congratulations on your weight loss.

Julie you are doing great that you might not even need to have surgery at this rate; if you've got 100 pounds to go in 4 months and 3 weeks!

I see you are in Crofton - I work in Millersville - so howdy daytime neighbor!

WOOHOO...congrats on the 13 lbs, I know how hard that probably was!
