Dropping in to say HI!!

Hello Everyone! Well, It's Sat night, the baby is sleeping for the night, hubby is at a poker party, men only and I am trying to relax, so I figured I'd stop by to say hello to my 2nd family.... so HELLO!! I dont remember the last time I was home alone with nothing to do!! Hope all is well, I miss coming here and reading everyone's posts.... Work is crazy and so is the rest of my life right now. Things are going a little slow for me, I am down to 191 from 257 in May which I feel is a little slow and I am on another stall.... how annoying! It's my fault though because I'm not eating as much as I should be and I'm not drinking as much either which is bad! I have to force myself to eat and drink and at this point I HATE food!! I never thought I would say that, but it's true... I forgot to eat today, and forced myself to eat something at 5 tonight and now I feel blah and I have a nasty headache! Anyone else have days like this? Anyway, miss ya guys, stop in and say hi! I'm gonna take a love bubblebath later.... nothing like peace and quiet!!! Gia 257/191/125

Hi Gia Na All I can tell you right now is to enjoy your queit evening,Enjoy that bubblebath maybe your headache will go away.For stall just take it one day at a time.I was killing myself to get the weight off , with all the other Marcher who lost over 80lbs at that time.I had only lost a little over 60lbs and was dissappointed(even getting depress) I couldn't get the weight off fast enough.My weight is coming off slow so I took advantage by exercising so inches came off faster.Then I gain 10lbs which I couldn't get off for 3weeks.That was a killer. As for eating, I too forget to eat sometimes and try to get most of my protein in.I know one day I'm going dislike eating protein shake,protein bar ,cottage,cheese all those other stuff but I'm making an efford.So I just try to remember why I did this surgery to get my health back (besided looking good ha ha ha!). So GiaNa just enjoy this night of peace and queit and tomorrow is another day. Goodnight my dear. andClaire

Thanks Claire... Gia

Gia, I could totally relate to forgeting to eat!!!!! If you would've told me 6 months ago that I would forget to eat...I would say..."your out of your mind!".......but food just isnt all that enjoyable to me anymore. My stomach never growls, but I also get a headache....that's when I stop and think and realize I didnt eat. I guess we just have to be more aware. Watch the clock, and eat every 3-4 hours...even if it's just a piece of cheese or a protein bar. I hope you enjoyed your evening...say hi more often. Hugs, Janean

Thanks Janean. I did enjoy my evening, so peaceful!! And I miss the board, I try to get on as much as I can, I'm sure you know what it's like with a little one. I'm sorry to hear what you have been going through I know it's tough and if there is anything that I can do, definately let me know. I hope you report that SOB to the medical board for being an idiot and not being compassionate. People like that kill me knowing that they are in the medical field supposedly helping people. Youre not far from me so if you ever want to get together and talk I'm available. Just remember to always keep your head up and put yourself and your kids first and never let anyone bring you down!! {{{{{HUGS}}}}} Gia

Gia, Thank you for your support..I truly appreciate it. I'm not allowed to discuss my "situation" any longer on the boards, but if you or anyone you know wants to they can email me at [email protected]. I'm glad you enjoyed your evening!!! Lindenhurst is very close to me. I've been trying to get to meetings out here more often if you are interested let me know. I've also met Debbie at Starbucks...maybe we can make a date so we can all meet. hugs, Janean
