HOOTIE HOOOOOO!!!!GO BETH!!!!!!!!! Kim

Hey Beth!! Good luck at WW. I've actually been considering going back to WW to get these last 23 lbs off. I don't know that it would help ..... but I always loved the support there! You will get there girl - don't give up! I miss everyone too. Unfortunately, I don't get online much at night and I think most everyone else does! We must schedule a chat when we can all be there. Don't worry about the BB. If you want to post, do it. If someone is ugly to you, I will beat them up (note to moderators: this is a joke ) Have a great day girlie!! Kim

Hey Kim, Sorry you had a bad week. Don't fret over your choices with food so far this week. Just jump back on track and do better. I have done really well this week. I hope when I go to my Weigh****chers meeting that I have actually lost some weight. I'll past when I get back and let ya know. I don't know where everyone is. I am having withdrawals. I thought of posting something to the few on the BB that I like but was afraid someone might be ugly then I'd have to go postal on someone...LOL joking. I just miss talking to others. I hope you have a great day. I work Sat and Sun nights 12 hour shifts...so I'm trying to psych myself up for that. I am going to take a shower because the WW meeting is at 12...maybe if I take a scalding hot shower I will have lost a few more pounds by the time I get there....hehehe I can't wait until my WLS....I lose with the WW, then I gain...I wish I would just do some losing. Beth

Hi Becky, I am, like, totally new to WLS. I mean, obviously I have heard about it, but it has not been anything I thought I would do. I have bottomed out, though, and I have to do something because I cannot lose the weight by myself. Also, my health is depreciating (hypertension, edema, high cholesterol, stent in heart, etc.). The surgery is scary, but continuing on as I am is even scarier. I noticed you said you are new to the group--I don't know how I even ended up here--and I was wondering. Have you had surgery yet? I saw your picture by your post and you look great, so I don't know if you had surgery or not. I am hoping the group will let me be a part of it also. I feel so isolated, at times, because of my body. Anyway, I hope we can encourage one another. I should be having surgery in July, if all goes as plan. Take care, Jaycee

OMG THAT IS SO WEIRD I am experiencing the SAME DAMN THING today. For the past two weeks, I've BARELY been able to eat one meal, much less focus on my protein, but I've been drinking water like a fish. Well beginning yesterday, I've been grazing. Not necessarily eating a "meal" but eating something every other hour....like I just downed a whole $0.50 pack of hot peanuts...I'm not EVEN gonna give the nutrition facts for that..... Anyhoo...are you fixin to start or something? And if you're like me, I'm a stress eater. I've had a killer midterm this week, and other things have been weighing heavily on my mind, and I tend to binge/purge just like you talk about. I have always done that, and yes, today I had the urge to go puke, too Well wb or email me.....we can help each other, really Beth
