Topic: RE: Whew!!
Bought the ingredients and am making them and taking them with me on a road trip this weekend. Dave said he is waiting "patiently" for them but I don't think asking me twice a day is patient. :) Thanks for the recipe, hot mama!

Topic: RE: Got my Date
That's so soon! I'm so excited for you! Good luck with everything. I thought the liquid diet was the hardest part so if you can do that - you are all set! :)

Topic: So, how do you regain your focus when you begin to slip?
There have been several times over my 4 1/2 years post-op where I've lost focus on what I was doing and forgot where I came from and the dangers thay lay ahead if I continued to do so. It seemed to me that I would continue on that descruptive path until my clothes would start getting snug and then I would up the exercise program and seriously watch what I eat. For the most part I do pretty well with my food, but there are more times than I care to share that chicken wings and pizza wind up on my plate.
So, my question to those of you that are a little further out, is what do you do when you realize you've fallen off track? Is it really as simple as getting back on. Is the 5 day liquid diet a regular occurance for you? I'm just curious how others deal with it compared to how I've dealt with it.

So, did anyone try the SF LF pumpkin muffins? LOL!! I made some on Sunday and they are delicious. Gotta love that Splenda, huh?
Topic: RE: Start over again
Sylvie, I couldn't agree more! There are so many people that visit this board but don't often post that it would be very easy to get this thing rolling again. Oldheads, newbies, lurkers, whomever. I challenge everybody that reads this to log on at least one time per day (if possible) and respond to at least one thread (starting one would be great as well). Even if it's a "good job" or "attaboy". Kind words and inspiration go a long way. Well said Sylvie.

Indeed. :) Hi Stephanie. I'm not sure you know me, but maybe. I've been on for a little over a year and a half (something like that). I'd be really interested to hear how you are keeping your weight off! I'm terrified that it will creep back on for me. h
