Well I am so glad I am not a weight loss orphan LOL I am so glad you are here. I have some shopping also  left to do before Christmas but I need to wait for pay day to buy them lol I figure I am not gonna stress out with holiday weight gain etc as I feel New Years is a renewel of my commitment to weight loss. I am thinking I am gonna focus on strength and building muscle this year and do major body tonning, I think I better charge my phone so when u call I will not have a dead battery. I decided to have a low key christmas and try not to spend to much this year and seems I am so stress free about it I have all the gifts wrapped minus the few i still need to buy Just need to do grocery shopping  I have alot of doct apts this week ugh, Well time to crack the whip and get the kids cleaning So my mom will not scream when she shows up tommorrow on her way to my sisters for christmas. So hard not able to do chores Oh darn lol My housekeeper is off this week.

Here I am....Would you believe that I didn't realize it was Sunday. I have been busy since early morning and it is now 1:10 in the morning. I was busy today preparing for a Chanukah party at my house. Cleaning all day, last minute shopping, and of course all the cooking. Where the heck is everyone??? I notice many people have viewed this, but no one has replied. I am stable with my weight and for now that;s ok. I have been eating a lot more than I'd like and a lot of the wrong things. all the good tasting stuff just slides right on down. I am looking forward for the holidays to be over so I can get serious about my diet again. How does it feel to be skinny? Sorry I haven't gotten back to you..I will as soon as I have a while to sit on the phone with you for a while. You will never be an orphan.......I will always be here for you.

I kinda figured Shar is busy this morning  so I will start this weight in I am sure this time of year everyones is busy with work holiday partying  travel etc. I hope all are doing ok with the holiday food temptations. I been venturing out more with Christmas shopping and trying not to swell up to much. I hope everyone is getting in the protien in first.
I am down 2 pounds this week which I am really surprised I am even lost anything after last week huge weight loss.
this am I am 170 so so close to 169 lol I cannot rmemeber when I last saw 170 lol. I think I went from 125lbs to 200 overnight lol I stopped swimming and rigerious work outs in my teens and that is when my weight went out of control. I hear the word skinny every now and then and I am saying u talking to me? LOL I thought after my tummy tuck I would be just admiring my new shape and I have been avoiding looking at my new body imagine I think psychology I do not beleive it is me I mean the head is the same but the body is not. I have a severe eating disoder and I battle with body imagine and MPD so this is really hard to beleive this is the new me. I hope after the staples and drain tubes are removed I can really connect and not feel I am looking at someone else body.I feel very numb so this does not help  LOL
Merry Christmas and Happy Hanikkah to everyone on our A team, 
Total weight loss 125 lbs
Highest weight 295
last week 172
This week 170
Warm holiday wishes to everyone

Topic: RE: Tummy tuck pics are here!!!!!!!!!!!
I was all tummy or basically a giant tick figure  and skinny arms and legs and all the weight I would lose would not help my figure I got to skinny in arms and lower legs I was just off balance and after seeing my surgeon and looking over my figure it was the best idea to do it now my ending weight will be 155 to 160, I had such severe back aches and arthritis on my spine I needed the skin /fat off asap. I feel so much better as far as back ache. As you can tell from my before pics I was all pannis LOL Plus I had a hernia that was preventing me from exercising on land. I probally only have about 12 more lbs I may want to lose. My back tells me ty everyday for not waiting I am really starting to have serve spine issues numbness and I see the spine doc on tuesday as my last mri on my back was not good.
I was basically told I need to be as skinny as possible as my back is in such bad shape. I wish I was like you and was in my 20's taking off the weight  not waiting tell I am almost 50. I am feeling the abuse of obesity I did on my self. I think by your pics you just simply look amazing u have done so well..

Protein is the key for me also. If I just have carbs, I tend to keep reaching for them over and over. I also eat something every 2-3 hrs. I snack on nuts, fruit, yogurt, etc. I also noticed that my body needed some more grains, so I make a batch of oatmeal for midmorning and then heat up the leftovers for the next two days-add a little milk to loosen and it is good. I start each day with a protein shake-this is not negotiable. That way I start my day with 34 grams of protein and I am off to a good start.
I also make my desserts with a lot of protein. Chocloate cream pie, made with skim  milk, add extra 1/2 cup of NF dry milk and it is very creamy. The cream is a mix of FF cream cheese and SF whipped topping. How can I feel guilty about that??
I have been at goal now for 9 months and have no problem maintaining. I actually went below goal. LOVE LOVE LOVE my surgery. I do have problems with people who do not have it when they are over 100lbs overweight, have high blood pressure and sleep with a machine on their face due to sleep apnea. I can not figure out why they are afraid to get into the game of life. I do accept that this is always a personal choice but don't be complaining when there are alternatives-I know I'm not being kind but as you can tell-this gets to me....
Biggest thing is to find something you love to do. This brings a sense of calm and bliss that makes the mind and body happy.
The tool still works. YOU can do it. I find when I fall off the wagon and then get back on that it seems to shock my body into giving up a few pounds.
