Hi Jina!
Whoa! Glad you got off easy. I'm a big girl and those would have put me out of commission!

Thanks for the goodie list! (she scrambles for a pen to make out shopping list for tomorrow) I've seen the Reese's Cups l/c carb but didn't check them out because I figured that it was to good to be true, thought it was alot of hype. When I go through induction, I really don't miss the sugar so much. This time around, I have to say, I do.
So thanks for the tips all! I was just invited to a Christmas Party today, I'm already thinking I'll bring l/c finger munchies and stuff. Last party was at Thanksgiving, I brought Fresca (cause I like the taste) and only had one glass. The men found out how nice that stuff mixes with vodka and I had to drink water the rest of the night! Men! Really, usually the things that I bring for myself, end up going faster than the high carb stuff anyway, hmmm....TTYL

Hello to everyone. I hope everyone is enjoying the fact that it's Friday! I've been gone for a long time, and back to stay (hopefully). How is everyone's day going so far?

Catgirl67: Welcome back!

Catgirl67 · 12-10-2004, 02:31 PM

Right now, I feel like I'm about 50 months pregnant! This ain't gonna be easy, but I can do this! I have to stop viewing it as a diet, and think of it as a lifestyle change. Man, it's only my first day on induction, and I already want carbs! It's all in my head I hope!

Hello ladies !!

Hello Roxy ! I have posted back replies to some of the threads you wrote on here. I look forward to getting to know you !!
Jina, hey girl how ya doin' ? I'm doing pretty good.

Last night my vcr ate my pilates tape so now I'm bumming. In spring I am hoping to buy a bike bc I want to pick that up again. I hope the dog wont mind jogging alongside me !! If not when I get my new dog in spring, she can be the jogger !!

Hey here's a question to everyone: For the past 2 days, I get hungry ( I eat now only when I get a little hungry) well now I get hungry but my appetite & cravings are so low, that I DONT WANT TO eat !! Thats right, I DONT WANT TO !! So I let it go & then I'm starving, which I know I know I shouldnt do but even if there was ice cream in front of me, I just dont want it. Then when I do eat I only eat a few bites of stuff bc my appetite is like zilch. Anyone else have that or gone through it ?I guess its a good thing but then when my tummy rumbles it hurts.

abnrmlisme · 12-10-2004, 06:34 PM

Oh btw its NOT boredom from the food I am eating. I eat a variety of things, cook things different ways, I simply just have no desire for food right now. I have to force myself to eat. Its not emotional bc trust me I love eating. Its just that with this WOE, my appetite has been suppressed even though my tummy rumbles, my mouth says no.

Hi everyone. I'm sorry I spent so much time whinning yesterday. I feel so much better today. I am doing day 1 of induction. hehehehe. Amazing how much better now that I don't have any bad things in my system. I have figured out that peanut butter, nuts, and those low carb things that say they are lc friendly are BAD news for me!!! Man! I was hysterical for a few days over stupid food! I am wondering if I am hypoglycemic. (sp?) I had a lot of dizzy spells yesterday, and obviously I was moody! IT totally felt like PMS, but I've had a hysterectomy, so that's not it.

..wait.. Can you have pms after a hysterectomy?

..Anyway, I drank a lot of water today, got my a$$ dressed, hair done and got on with the day. Yay!

Oh! Tomorrow is Dh's b-day. So I cut off all of his hair today and made him shave off his beard.. OOOooooh My man is hot! He is an Orlando Bloom look-a-like for sure. mmmmmmm

This is totally off the topic, but I have a question.. What's your ideal "Girl's night out?" Man.. My friends and I can get pretty wild on our nights out. *sigh* I haven't had one of those in SOOOOOOOO Long! I think I'm in horrible need. Anyone else in the same boat?

Uggamugga4 · 12-10-2004, 08:30 PM

Ab- hmmmmmm... That sound suspicious. Careful with that one. I use to struggle with eating disorders. ( I know you eat.. so that's not what I mean.. but..) One of the things you have to be careful with is that when you only eat when your tummy growls is that your tummy kind of shrinks. That's a good and bad thing. For me, I'd get to the point of only eating once (maybe) a day. Of course I lost weight. But my metabolism was shot too. It sounds like you might be bored with the food. Do you need new ideas on meals?

abnrmlisme · 12-12-2004, 11:15 PM

Carrie: New food ideas would be great. I am trying to eat now even when I'm not hungry. Lately if I wait I am basically starving & even then food doesnt sound good. So I will be careful and even if I eat a few bites thats better then not eating at all.
