Mixed emotions,growing tired

you crack me up but that is good to know so I don't overspend on products I won't need after 3 months, I just want to do it right that's all and I love my hair its pretty, and I want to stay healthy and my biggest issue will be getting back to kick boxing...seriously I love it. Thin and Tough.....maybe I will get a tattoo.....

I always tell people what works today might not work tomorrow so buy in small amounts. I couldn't find the pudding on there. Look for it's protein count and keep it to less than 27 grams and hour and you will be fine. I liked that Stallone pudding then I started making it myself with S/F jello pudding and Beneprotein powder. It was substantially less expensive and tasted better. PB is great. Put me in the hospital and my friend Jay likes taking that ride any chance he can. kp

i don't have much else being that i can out fart you. I liked that Stallone pudding at first too, but only if it was cold, i found it pretty disgusting warm. Did you actually get your home made pudding up to 20 grams per serving without it being disgusting? I had no luck but i didn't use Beneprotein. I need to do something new and different as i'm having trouble getting myself to drink the protein shakes anymore and S wants me to have one a day.

Is that a challenge?? The folks at Great Lakes Crossing would argue that after Sunday. I got it to 18 grams and I start the day with a shake. I've switched brands to Designer whey now. It's cheaper. kp

Jackie - The folks who had the most to say about me having surgery before hand are now telling me I have to stop losing weight soon as it's getting a little much. They can all pound sand as far as I'm concerned. Do what is right for you - whatever it is. As for me - every day I get up and rub the scar from my surgery - as far as I'm concerned it's my badge of courage- and it marks me no differently than the CSection scars that stand for other big moments in my life. And Dr. Schram did a wonderful job. All my best, Michele P

People always have something to say....so whatever to them! You ARE doing this for you and that's what matters. Like my grandmother used to say, "If you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say nothing at all"....if only people would do it. You'll be fine. Best wishes to you! Kori

I went through the same thing with my son's father. He badgered me and told me I was stupid for having the surgery. So unsupportive. My grandma asked why I wanted to do this and insisted I would just gain all the weight back. My only answer for them was..."I want to live". Dieting doesn't work...we all know that and this was my one fighting chance. People die everyday from different things but if I didn't have the surgery I was going to die no matter what. I was 432 pounds and my blood pressure was uncontrollable for over 3 years. I had been on 2 different meds and nothing worked. I had chest pains. I was always hot. I was miserable. I have posted this for other people before and I say this to myself everyday. "THIS IS THE BEST THING YOU WILL EVER DO FOR YOURSELF". This journey is about YOU getting healthy and happy with YOURSELF. I know it sounds selfish but in my instance I always made sure everyone else was ok and I came last. Well now that I've had surgery I come first. I still take care of home and my sons needs but I think about myself; where I didn't before. Best of Luck Stacey B

Thank you Stacey and Good for you honey! Amazing things our coming to us. Everything will be fine I just know it and the support I do have, well they are what matters to me.

I am getting closer and closer each day.........wow I can't believe its around the corner. Thank you for your inspirational story, bessings to you and your family! Love Jackie SE MI

"Amazing things ARE coming to us." I had to correct myself. I have made some errors when I post and it always bothers me since I was an English major in college. Go figure!
