IN A REAL FUNK

Hi all, I will soon be 6 months out. I have lost a little over 60 lbs, I hit the treadmill at least 4 times a week, walk/jog mode, and it seems to be all I can get off is this 60 + lbs. I am disgusted with myself, I do pretty hard labor at work all day, I don't have enough energy left over for much else but the treadmill. Any ideas? !

Have you tried keeping a food log so that you can keep up with your intake of calories on a daily basis? If you feel you are taking in too much of the high calorie foods, you could cut back on that and try to put yourself back in the losing mode?! Sounds like you could be a little depressed about the weight loss, don't let yourself get down, think of it like this.... 60 pounds in 6 months, that is 10 pounds a month, 2.5 pds a week. That is not bad at all!! Everyone's body loses differently. Did you measure yourself before surgery? If you did, you should be able to tell a big difference in your measurements. If you didn't, it is not too late, do that and start measuring yourself once a month and see if maybe you are losing inches, sometimes you can lose inches and the scale will not move. Stay positive and keep us updated of your progress!! Best of Luck! Rhonda

thanks rhonda, yes, i have lost a good many inches, i do believe it will come off, just slowly! hope you are fine. hey everyone, especially new patients, i found a sugar free, low fat drink you will like, i hope. you may already have it, i wish i had had it, but it is cafe vienna international decaf mocho coffee, i really like it!

Ohhh, I just saw this coffee the other day.... my Walmart only carries the SF Decaf Swiss Mocha and the SF Decaf Vanilla. Both of these are great, I just wish there were a few more flavors in the SF Decaf! Love ya, Marci

hey marci, looking good girl! some lady at my walmart told me winn-dixie has the late' sf kind, but it is about 2.00 more, i love the mocha. this stuff is the closest i can get to cappincino (sp) i told someone at super stop they ought to get sf cappincino, i love that stuff too. i was eating some animal cookies with peanutbutter but i quit because they are addictive. so, how are you doing?

Thanks Brenda! You need to post a picture on your profile! lol We don't have a Winn-Dixie, all we have is a Kroger and a Wal-Mart. I would love to find someone that had a SF Cappicino - but like you said, these coffees are pretty close! I bet the animal cookies and peanut butter are good, I had not thought of that.... Things are going pretty good for me, have alot of sagging skin now, especially my upper arms and thighs... I am gonna have to find me a long legged girdle to keep my flabby thighs from slapping together! lol Keep me posted on how you are doing and email me a picture so I can see how GREAT you look now! Love ya, Marci
