HOW can I fit anymore in?!?! -  Well, today has gone straight down the toilet as far as my protein intake.  I have gotten all of 39.7 grams in.  We'll call it 40.  =]    I have been forcing myself to eat more ...

Thanks, Christopher, for the suggestion. I will give it a try. =]

Silly body... -  So, I decided that I was going to stop trying to lose more weight.   I even gave myself permission to gain a few pounds.  I figured "What the hell".  I looked less "deflated" at 1...

Sam's Rant #1 -   Actually, I am calling it rant #1, because the rest of my posts were more of a vent.. it had to do with me personally. This has to do with other people and I really have no right...

When can I just start living? -   I have been thinking a lot lately about my obsession with the scale.  I realized lately that I am so tired of thinking about/talking about/obsessing over my damn weight.  If *I* ...

I got the job!! -   After being out of work since January, I didn't just get a job.. I got the one I wanted.   I'll be managing a brand new store.  They are letting me design the interior, pick the ...

Trip to the ER.. and stuff -   I have been urinating blood.  I knew I at least had a UTI, I have had them before and recognized the usual icky symptoms, but the blood.. well, that was new.  I was urinating the...

Update on the blood in my urine - I went to the ER today.  I really should have gone earlier, but I was hoping to find any way to avoid adding another bill to the pile.    It turns out that I have a UTI, a kidne...

Parents say the darndest things (long) -   My parent came to visit yesterday.  I love my parents.. I do, but they spent my ENTIRE LIFE telling me that I was too fat (even when I was only like a size 8).  I have an aunt (m...

You ever have one of those days? -     You know the ones..  you get up in the morning, hide from the step kids, try to get some housework done, find something DISGUSTING in you garbage can, do 5893784 loads of laund...

Samantha vs. The Whole World -   Today I have spent more time and energy trying to get out of doing anything that I would have spent just DOING it.  I am doing my usual "hide in the bedroom from the stepkids" we...

What the heck..? -  I started logging the foods that I eat.  I wanted to try and keep track of my protein intake because I knew I wasn't getting enough protein.   What I found is that I don't think I...

Phooey. Today is gonna be a grouchy pouch day.. -  All I have had today is my cup of coffee (and my vitamins, of course!).  I still feel full.  Blarg.   I guess I'll have to force down a protein shake soon.     Yesterday, I endur...

I am a sore girl today (X-post and kind of long) - Yesterday I decided that I could do the same workout that The Cowboy (My SO) does with his Army Recruiter. BWAHAHAHAHA!! Right now I kind of want his Army Recruiter to fall off a c...

My personal body dysmorphia issues -   I don't get it.  When I was large, I didn't know I was *that* large.  I got hit on regularly and most days I thought I looked pretty good.  Then I started having trouble fitting ...

Urinating blood clots -  Looks like I am off to the hospital today, which sucks because I have no medical coverage.   I am HOPING that it's just a nasty UTI, but I am passing fairly large blood clots wh...

Thanks! The picture really doesn't do it justice. =] (Neither does...

You look great! Why WOULDN'T you turn heads?? You're lovely.

I'll get this right someday.. I know I will. -  So, after reading that article this morning, my interest got peaked.  Not by the loose skin thing, but by the body fat percentage.  I had never really put a whole lot of thought i...

Went back to basics and now I can't eat... >.< -  So, it all started because I read this article on loose skin.  Some guy claims that no matter your age or amount of weight lost or whatever, that you can rid yourself of loose ski...

Which songs get you in the mood? - Just curious if anyone else has specific songs that just... get you going.  Mine are: NIN - Closer Christina Aguilera - Nasty, Naughty Boy (I like to strip to this one) Lisa ...

My pre-op goals - I posted this in the forum, but I thought I'd repost it here because it seems strange to me that I have met all of these goals.  Here is a list of my pre-surgery goals: Pre-surg...

We talk about loose skin a lot... - So, I was wondering what you guys think of this: http://www.bodyfatguide.com/LooseSkin.htm Basically, it says that no matter what your age or how much weight you have lost, y...
