Good Luck with the rest of your journey!  Leslie

tookie... I NEED to start exercising again!  I just can't seem to find the time - between homeschooling, starting a tutoring business, my oldest's jiu jitsu lessons, and my youngest's karate...

Man oh man!

Here's the kicker... my friend and I have signed up for a Warrior Dash in May.  If you don't know what it is, Google it.  It's gonna kick my tookie!!!

I am so with you!
My arms are my big sore point in my mind!
I had pictures taken about a week ago on a dinner trip and all I can focus on are my arms - even though I have been told over and over how great I look, the arms put me back in a spin...

I still have about 50 to and am STUCK.  It looks like 18 months was my DONE phase, no matter how hard I try I just can't lose these last darned 50...

Keep venting Tom... The more you vent here, the less you keep inside!  Remember that this is a mental journey as well as phyiscal... You can eat more carbs - we know you can!  Just make sure not to slack on your protein - you need that as well even though you are out of the losing phase (or you want to be!)

MORE red meat!!  LIVER (eww!!)  Good luck getting the iron up!

Glad to see you stopped by!
Keep coming.... I think we are on the right track to getting the board back to support and talking about our success and failures - and to helping each other pick up the pieces and move on to the next day!

We all need a kick in the rear for different reasons - whether it be eating wrong, not exercising, putting ourselves down, not taking out vitamins... we all have our downfalls, so let's pick each ohter up and all get to goal!

Howdy Ginger!
Your avatar looks great! Sorry to hear that you(and all of us) have hit a rough spot and struggling with your weight. When I read your post it really hit home for me. We (us) are such creatures of habit. When I finally was ready to acknowledge out loud that some of my choices were not the best and my portion sizes were growing,  I (like any other addict) needed to be stopped! I went on the board after a long absence, didn't recognize a lot of the people, and the ones that I did recognize felt like they were freeze framed from 6 months ago! Not exactly what you would call a warm fuzzy feeling. The Good news is I didn't turn to food, but to friends and family. I am going to try and be better about checking in on OH, not just for myself, but for others who are/were like myself pre/post WLS. I hope you feel the same way also. The people on this board who want to lose the weight, but MORE importantly lose the demons who allowed us to eat to obesity! I hope u and others with positive attitudes and open hearts will try and do the same. No miracles here, just asking for baby steps! Stay well and shout out if needed! xo, :)

Topic: RE: WHY???
I too hate fasting blood work, hell I hate fasting period! At least you got some of your ?? answered, and all with good results. So hopefully with this fasting BW you can get some answers that you have been looking for. I hope you get the results soon, and all will be good to go(or really easy to fix) It also never hurts to ask for a little help from the man/woman upstairs to speed up the fasting and good results! Looking forward to hearing good news, Leslie:)

Lisa, as usual I have the answer, ha,ha,ha, Read and proceed carefully!
1st: you take the flab from your arms and stuff it in your bra, because your breasts will now need to be tucked into your jeans. Now for the tricky part, the flabby tummy skin needs to be tucked into your knee socks, but no worries because the skin seems to separate itself once u get below your belly button(if u can find it) so both knee socks should be evenly filled, so you can maintain your balance!!  
 REMEMBER PROCEED WITH CAUTION! :)

That's good that you got to go to the gym regardless!

I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.
Those that mind don't matter, and those that matter don't mind.
