Topic: Try Zija
Hello everyone I havent been posting in awhile, but have been reading quite a bit. I just wanted to let you know that I have tried this product called Zija, its amazing. It has Moringa in it that helps give you natural energy and suppress your appetite. At this time I feel it has really helped me. It comes in a tea to detox,a vitamin liquid to help w/diseases and ailments, and a pill that I love. You can go to www.drinklife.com for more info or www.zija.com and I hope you try it. It is a little pricey but right now I'm just taking the pilss and drinking the tea, and let that last me. Hope this helps!
Topic: Heavy - on A & E...
For those out there looking for inspiration, wanting to lose without surgery, I suggest HEAVY - a show on A & E.
The show will be following (I believe) twenty-two people, showing two on each episode, over a six month period -- learning how to lose the weight & learn how to live a healthy lifestyle.
I saw it last night, and enjoyed it. Hard work, determination, and a willingness to allow others to teach them how to change their lives, it was inspiring.
Anyone else see it? It shocked me that anyone really eats six cheeseburgers and three orders of chicken nuggets, but I guess there are those out there. Ha ha, I know a pint of Hagen Daaz is FOUR servings, but in "other life," it was more like two servings.

Topic: RE: Need help getting past the nightly sweets craving?
Even though I have a band, it doesn't stop the chocolate craving. One thing that helps me is I eat a dill pickle. Works everytime. Good luck.

I use the same app and although I don't really crave chocolate occasionally I indulge. I've found the Hershey's dark chocolate kisses kinda hit the spot for wanting sweets and you can have 9 for 180 calories.
How successful has LoseIt been for you? I've been having pretty good luck so far.

Topic: RE: Tips on getting off my a$$
I see you are scheduled for WLS, how are you doing with all your other requirements? I find the best way to get motivated is to find something you like to do activity wise. Zumba or Jazzercise can be great because it's dancing (what woman doesn't like to dance?) and the routines change before you get bored. My worst problem is getting bored; that's why DVDs never worked for me. Plus when you're in a group setting (I at least) work harder because I think the instructor is wanting me to lose weight and is trying to make us work harder/motivate the class.
I like to bike ride too; the local trails allow me to ride and enjoy nature. Too bad the trails are covered in snow now!

Topic: Need help getting past the nightly sweets craving?
I am using the LoseIt app on my iPhone to help me count calories. It's been great so far in helping me decide what to choose to eat, but after dinner I almost always kill the calorie count with chocolate. It pains me that I work hard all day to keep on track but once I'm home and with my husband in front of the tv, I can't stop myself. Anyone have suggestions?
Topic: RE: I'm new here :)
Hi Kristin & Cindy! Have you two started holding eachother accountable? How did you fare over the holidays? I'd like to loose about 50 lbs, and would love some help and friendship along the way.

Topic: RE: Diet Pills
my primary care doctor tried me on phentermine. I was one of 500 patients on it and I was the only one to GAIN weight. just my luck! I only took them for 60 days because they werent working so why go the full 90 allowed.
As for alli, my surgeon just told me tuesday that the fda is taking it off the market due to liver failure, but i just saw a tv commercial on it so I dont know. I wouldnt take it anyway. I have diarrhea all the time anyway, why take something that is going to make it worse.
