"I got on here for the first time since early 2009 seeking support!! I really need it this time. I hope some of you great ladies will stick around this year. Let's all get back at it. Why not!?! We all did it before- let's support each other again!"
AMEN
My day went OK. My mom came in today and I woke up and rushed out to the airport (2 hrs away) and ate my normal muffin in the car. Lunch was tricky because she wanted to eat out and I just have a hard time with that. We stopped at Jason's Deli and I got a turkey sandwich off the "Light" menu. I looked it up when I got home: 510 calories WTH!?!
I did get a very easy/light walk in with my mom after we got back home. Her stamina isn't up and I took it easy for her. It just made me happy to see her willing to walk!
Good morning,
Well it's on Wednesday anymore, but I'll still post it here anyway. Yesterday I jinxed myself. I wrote about like four different people tootin' my horn and it blew in my face.lol Yes of course it's about weight loss. I just don't get it why I hold onto weight RIGHT when I start dieting? It just doesn't make sense to me. Anywho, it's not getting me down, well maybe a little, but I'm not giving up. Just very frustrating! grr
Someone just mentioned pizza..sorry, I didn't catch who it was. But I am someone that cannot live without pizza. That is actually a tiny little part of why I wanted to calorie count.lol Just wanted to tell you what I did last night. I chopped up tons of veggies, and a few different kinds of meats, and of course cheese (for every one else..I didn't actually use any). I used flour tortillas as the crust! I not only had pizza sauce (we actually used spaghetti sauce because I didn't have anything else), but I also opened a can of cheddar soup mix. Think the spicy one would probably be better for this. I don't like red sauce that much, so I used this as my sauce. Cooked it in the oven on 400 between 10-13 minutes. It wasn't that half bad! My husband actually really enjoyed it, so did the kids. I'm sure it will start being a regular dinner around here.

I'm dying to know how painful the roux en y is... that's what's making me balk. David is already talking about taking a week off of work to be home with me if I have it done - and it just sounds like such a big todo..
I NEED MY DO .. the surgeon told me I'm gaining because my body wants to go BACK to over 300 lbs...
I do not accept this... LOL
Last Friday night we had pizza take out and I just ate like a fool. I gained 3 pounds from that one meal and it took me until TODAY to lose that weight from the one stupid meal of pizza. I'm back down to 253 today and I hope to keep dropping a little more weight before I leave on vaca next Saturday. As of today I am only 20 pounds from my all time lowest (233lbs.) two years ago. I feel happy about that. For me, it feels like a doable thing. After eating that stupid pizza meal last Friday, it's like something clicked in my head "It's not worth feeling sick and gaining weight" I'd honestly rather stick to my little meals and be more healthy and a smaller size next week, rather than eating that crap food again. I'm praying I can keep this mindset from now on.
