Hiya my sweet Boo! You are missing your endorphins from moving around,sigh.
Soon baby girl. You are so blessed,and so good.
Sometimes my heart gets heavy. Connie,why are some people so hateful??
I am teary today,someone wrote me and told me I should stick to my own kind. I took it as racial,I hope I am wrong...but who are my kind?? I am fat,or formally fat,I am over 50,so what could it mean??
Take care,
Love ya.

Good morning to you, our little sweetheart. I am so glad to see you in the mornings and I am especially glad that you are feeling so much better. You certainly had enough prayers going for you...and I am sure that you continue having them too.
Food was not to bad yesterday. I did a bit better on the protein so that is good. I did better on water and other fluid so that is good too. I think I am getting a bit better each day...even if it is just a bit. Just one day and one bite at a time. I am leaning more toward fruit right now and that is good too. I bought some more fruit yesterday so I have a bigger variety. That is always good...variety.
B: nothing...I know, I know!
L: cheeseburger patty...I did pretty good with that too
D: chicken with cheese and veggies...and that was good too
S: a few cherries...and they were good too
So as you can tell...things tasted good yesterday for the most part. I think that is where I was lacking..I wasn't eating what I thought tasted good for the most part. Now that is what I am going to focus on today. I just may conquer this whole thing yet...keep your fingers crossed.
I better go. I have no idea what time the nurse is coming..she didn't call last night. So I better get ready for when she does come. I am sending you love and big hugs and prayers are being said for you and yours. I hope that your day is great today...and just think..it is hump day already. Time this week is going fast...but I am sure that Bill wouldn't agree with that one. Don't forget to spread the happiness and joy that you have found. People now need them more than ever.

Hi Brenda,Frye's had cherries 3.99 a pound,I thought I would fall out of my scooter. This week they are 99 cents a pd,so I will bite,no pun intended....smile.
You are doing your best,and it shows. Brenda,I do not eat any food the first thing in the morning,I never liked it,and after WLS,my pouch (The Fangster),does not like it either.
I have been enjoying tea,and now again,ice coffee,I do not drink coffee all the time though,as it can be a problem,because I could enjoy it all day.
So,even though I do not eat breakfast,I count my first meal as breakfast,no matter what time I have it,or what it is.
Margo said she had steak for breakfast the other morning for breakfast,and I can relate. Breakfast means break fast, so it is always the first meal you have.
I know you have your doctors visit tomorrow,and I will anxiously await the decision. You be strong,and please remember to ask him that after prescribing the same anti-biotic,at least 3 times by my count,that perhaps it may not work on you.
Good luck,and thank you for the prayers.
Hugs!

Hi Linda - I am pre-wls and still have a problem with bingeing. I never know when to stop. Reading the posts here makes me aware that I will have to be very conscious of what I put in my mouth to the point that I may have to put together a plan (meals, snacks, etc) ahead of time and stick to it. I never was one for being that organized, but I can see that having a more organized life will make me more successful post wls.
Thanks to all of you who take the time to post your meals and snacks as I have learned from all of you.

Hi there Linda,
The little quote I used, "better than I deserve" is just a quote from this money management guy I have heard before, has some good money ideas but that's about all I really like about him. Anyway was just a small attempt at humor....didn't mean to come across as pitiful.
I have to get ready for work but wanted to say I discovered a new yummy easy food that fills me and tastes good, lot's of you probably know about it but I didn't. It is WW Smart One Fiesta Quesadilla.
My food was good yesterday...and I am back on track except I have not done the treadmill for a few days. I will start back again soon though...sometimes I just need a little break and I find it shakes my body up a bit and when I stop and then start again seems like the scale starts moving down again.
Have a lovely day!

Hiya weightlossdreamer,yes,having a direction helps with our honesty to ourselves. Some of post what we have eaten in the last 24 hours,and some of us what we plan to eat.
I used planning ahead of time mostly,the first 2 years. I have been on sick leave,and my pouch,whose name is The Fangster got finicky with the meds,and I started feeling guilty about not being able to follow what I had planned,so I now post in past tense.
George throws a bunch of user friendly food together for work in his car,and eats what he likes from it.
The bottom line,is that it works for you. I loved the pre-planning,because my food was limited more,and I did not want to dwell on food,but rather on getting used to my new life. I wanted to make sure I got my right amount of protein,liquids,etc.
After awhile,it has become 2nd nature,but I have to still do spot checks,for instance, I just realized a few days ago that I have not been eating any nuts,and that is important.
You will be fine,and these great people here welcome you with open arms....smile.

Howdy folks,
Good new yesterday. I stayed pretty much on track foodwise. Doc says my lab work is all within normal limits although a little on the low side for Vit. D and good cholesterol. Reminds me that it is about health after all. And the scale is finally moving a little in the right direction. After the doctor I had an eye appt. and that took a long time to get the new glasses so didn't get back to my other 15 minutes of exercise. I'll do better today (I hope).
B coffee/yogurt/Kashi
S protein bar
L chili con carne
S handful of peanuts
D not sure yet but protein/vegies maybe chicken stir fry
Thoughts become things...choose the good ones. CV Linda

Hiya CV! Glad to hear you are hanging. You are a busy bee,I am busy tomorrow,today I ached and remembered why I am on sick leave. What a pleasure to say,screw the world,I am sitting on my butt,and I am not taking any calls....hehehe.
The only people that break that barrier are Liv and the grands. The grands actually got me to barbque,as they came looking for more chicken...LOL!
Indeed thoughts become things,and I am sending you some awesome ones!
