Thanks for the idea hun and the motivation to start back, your the best! My resalution to to better work on eating healthy and getting in some form of exercise (walking) every day! Take care ~Hugs~ Debra P

[wavvvvvvvvvvves!] I am getting to go home to Texas next month and can hardly wait, because NOBODY is gonna recognize me! AND I get to go shopping! Today I tried Stacker2 Protein Water in Pink Lemonade, but I couldn't tell if I like it or not because the onion from my lunch was killing the flavor. I will report more on this tomorrow. It has 20 grams per 20 oz bottle, no carbs and no fat. Have a wonderful day!

Well that will be exciting going home and nobody knowing who you are......you will feel wonderful......I hope you have a great time.... Stacker2 protein I haven't tried that one yet....I use the Nector lemonade has 20 grams of protein in it... Christine

Ooooh... good topic! My New Year's Resolution is to get back into exercise with the same fervor that I had 5 years ago when I first joined a gym! I used to go 5-6 times a week and felt great (even though I didn't lose another ounce). So now I'm trying hard to get back into that routine because for the longest time I was so disgusted with the fact that I couldn't lose the rest of my weight (pre-WLS) that I had stopped going altogether, figuring it didn't really make a difference so why bother. But that was the old negativity! The "New Vi" has got her groove back and has been at the gym 5-6 nights a week for a minimum of 45 mins! Vi

Hi Vi you are no longer pre- wls so yes away with the negativity.....and on with the new.......even if you weren't losing weight the gym gives you energy....and that has to count for something......god knows I need the energy..... I'm sure you will get to your goal stay focused and always put your best foot forward..... Have a great day Vi Christine

Christine, ((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) I always love to see you here ! Well my New Years resolution is to get healthy by losing weight and exercising ! I have already started the excercising . I do the walk away the pounds dvd's and or vhs tapes . I have the 1 mile up to 4 mile . I have used these in the past and found that they work and it is not so hard on our bodies as some excercise's are . I have trouble walking on my left foot as my ankle kills me when walking for fitness outdoor's but these tapes are wonderful , my foot and ankle does'nt hurt a bit when I do them . It also has weight lifting with 3 to 5 lb. dumb-bells . I just got to get to the losing weight part which I know I will soon enough when I start the medifast on the 25 th. I figure I want to get into the best shape I can before surgery. As always Christine , love to see you ! Take care and sending you a bunch of luck for succeeding with your New Years resolution ! and Carol
