Topic: I'M Alive-Really
HI All
 I am very sorry for not letting you know what was happening with me. In Late November I moved back to Bullhead City AZ & have not had internet till today.
I worked 2 weeks in December at Walmart here & got really sick & lost my job
as I was still on probation (even though I was a rehire) Been unemployed ever since.
I am currently back with my old X (Lowell) & he has been great. He has been supporting me basically, so I can't complain much,. Just got Inusrance through State
of AZ & just went to a new doc this week. Had blood work done today, so well
see what has to be changed in Meds. I am basically a mess, accept that I have lost
25 of my regain. Last check was 223 from 250 at my hightest regain.  That in intself
is amazing since all the stress.
Until recently I was still seeing Bill (the Married Man), but, we have stopped it finally.
As it just was not fair to all involved. ( Enough said) It went on longer than it ever should have. Anyway not that I am back online I will catch up with everyone & won't
be such a strange. My Mom is doing fine for the time being. Just spent 10 days in San
Diego a few weeks ago. I just can't do California anymore too big, too expensive,too
much trafic. She doesn't like ti, but understands.
Love you All

i've become addicted to the atkins bars. they are my preferred thing to grab and eat when the blood sugar rears its ugly head. they have way to many calories in them but theres good protein and theres good carbs not alot.
i wish i could find something that was as filling with out the calories that would last with the blood sugar stuff. oh well its all just a hunt and search for that.

Watermelon... I remember when I first had my surgery I though****ermelon was the food of the Gods!!!! It was heaven on earth. Now its just back to watermelon. LOL!  if I just cut out all my sugar intake it would mabye turn into food of the gods again for me. lol... I have severely cut down on my sugar though. It's a rare treat now. I have been buying sugar free chocolates in case I cave. It's been helping.

You are such an inspiration Judy!!! :)  You are doing so darned well!!!!  I'm so excited for you. I've been thinking of you and trying to do well with my eating choices. I have been doing alright.

yesterday:
Breakfast: 1 light yogurt
Lunch: weigh****chers sandwich
snack: pretzels (too carby but i was soooo hungry and didn't have a protein bar on me)
Dinner: Meatloaf, a little coleslaw and potato salad green beans. BAD but I didn't eat much of it before I was stuffed so I'm sure it wasn't too many calories. 
Snack: Some pumpkin seeds. 
Didn't do any protein shakes I ran out. Have to re-stock.

Today:
Breakfast: 1 light yogurt; 1 egg and 2 slices of bacon. (was hungry)
Snack: strawberries
Lunch: gumbo soup. 
Dinner: not sure yet. I think I'll probably get 2 tacos from the fresca menu at taco bell They are 150 calories each. 
Snack: probably pumpkin seeds :) 

I lost 7 pounds but haven't lost anymore yet. I need to make a few better choices I think. Cut out any bacon, it's just too fatty. I know I should start loosing if I get to exercising! I just can't put off going to the gym anymore.

Oh my goodness!!! At a fair? Oh how sad! I know he's agreed to it, but its so sad to be a spectacle. I feel so bad for those people, I can't understand how they can be so large either. And who brings them their food? I watched a show on a similar person years ago and they ate like 2-3 loaves of bread a day a gallon of milk and like 3 pizzas... etc... all in one day, and that was just a little of what they ate in a day. Wow!!! thats alot of food to have to consume and so sad how strong their addiction is. I can't imagine the feeling they must have...that need to feel food in your stomach at all times. I know how that feels. Yet if i ate a donught I gain 10 pounds. My metabolism is sooooooooo bad!!! I know i don't eat a whole heck of a lot, compared to others I eat like a bird really. but food choices count alot and I dont' exercise. Gotta change that.

hi judy your doing wonderfully! how much weight have you lost now since you've been keeping track?
i'm doing good. I'm feeling much better. I hadn't had an episode in a couple of weeks and had one yesterday. it was due to a couple of different things., one was that i had a big bowl of watermelon loaded with sugar it would have been ok but it was a busy day for me and i had just sold a great account. i was so excited that combined with that excitement along with the big bowl of watermelon my blood sugar spiked then crashed., ouch! but it all got back to normal withint a short time.
i've been lurking and reading haven't posted because i'm back to work this week. boy did i forget how tired you can get working 8 hours! hahaha
take care,
Pammy

I saw a man at a Fair one time that was that big. He was setting on the ground behind a screen and we just got in a line of people and we just walked around and looked at him. Nobody said anything. We just looked at him. I felt so sorry for him. 
My cousin had gastric bypass last Wed. I pray he does like he is supposed to do and gets all his extra weight off.

Topic: worlds largest man
i watched a special on tlc this weekend about the worlds largest man. he was over 1000 pounds. could not get out of bed or dress himself. it was amazing. it made me wonder how does someone get that big? ok so i've seen lots of heavy people alot heavier than i was when i had my surgery. i know i just kept growing before but never thought i'd ever get 1000 pounds. no one would bring me the food to get me there! it was very sad.
he ended up getting married to a little bitty woman! that brings up a whole lot of other thoughts that i will not get into here!
cant get that guy out of my mind. i'm sure today i will be double good.
