Topic: RE: I miss popcorn...

I also waited until I reached goal to have popcorn. While losing it's best to be super strict about everything you eat.

When you rwach goal, have popcorn, with salt, but no butter. Popcorn by itself can be a fairly healthy snack. But butter will give you a zillion calories you don't need.

Topic: RE: Menus & Miles Monday Jan 9th for Roz

I've worked by myself for awhile but then after my bowel surgery a year ago my boss figured we needed someone who would know my job. I think the fact the DH retired this year had him worried too.   I was excited to have someone working with me but sometimes that's harder than doing it yourself.  I'm super excited to work by myself for awhile.......  Our office is really happy about the new baby!!

WARNING TO SELF AND TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN!!! AVOID 'BAD' CARBS AT ALL COSTS!!! THEY ARE ADDICTING!! THEY WILL SLOW DOWN YOUR WEIGHT LOSS DURING THE LOSING STAGE (and you won't even notice)!! THEY WILL MAKE THE SCALE GO UP AFTER THE HONEYMOON PERIOD IS OVER.

Success in Maintenance starts with GOOD CHOICES during the Honeymoon Period.

I feel I need to repeat this: I am a FIRM believer in Good Whey Protein Drinks!!!!!  It is sooooo much harder to do Maintenance without them!

hahaha...you are probably right!  BUT....I think I use that excuse to many times....LOL.  They were pretty good last night.  Some nights are pretty crazy and DH can't handle it. I talked to our DD's before they came and asked them to talk to the oldest ones.  They seem to be the two that rile everyone up.

 Sounds good!  Especially the bagel and cream cheese.....  I haven't had one for soooooo long!

Good evening,

Its a crazy cold day! I would be drinking hot chocolate with marshmallows right now in the past. I would be cooking unhealthy comfort food for dinner. I'm drinking water and planning on eating a healthy dinner instead. 

I LOVE MY SLEEVE!!!

Topic: RE: I miss popcorn...

I LOVE Popcorn!!!   I had the RNY but I didn't even consider eating it until I hit goal but then I feared it would hurt going down so I waited another 6 months or so.  Now I enjoy it every day but I use a Microwave Popper and a TB of oil with plain loose popcorn with no butter or flavorings to add calories.
