JasonsLea – I know what you mean going out has been a problem for me also. Do you think if you maybe brought something with you to your mom’s say a low cal treat and visit while you munch on that it will help?

Spunker – I can be an emotional eater. I think it’s a great idea to have a notebook. Thanks for your help. Many Congrats on getting only drinks at the drive through 5 days w/o b/ping! That is just awesome making your 4th set!!!! It’s very inspiring!

As for me I’ve been good and bad. My weight in day is Thursday so fingers crossed. TOM is on it’s way so I’ll try not to get my hopes up to high.
Ok I don’t know if you guys have a special someone… but it’s been really hard on me this summer when I see my guy checking out other women. Skinny women you know …and I think to myself how disappointed he must be with me. I’ve asked him and he said he isn’t but… Maybe it’s just me. Other women don’t let it bother them. What’s wrong with me? I’m very bothered it can really bring me down.

So how did you do Mez?

Let me tell you something, don't you let some man bring you down. I know he's your boy and you love him but if he's stupid enough to be checking out other chicks when you're around, he deserves to be slapped. Guys can be really insensitive sometimes.

JasonsLea, woohooo! Congrats on the 4.2!!! That's great!

mezmerize, How'd you do with your weigh-in on Thursday?

I wholeheartedly agree with JasonsLea on your guy.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with you, and I hope you don't put anymore thought into that. Definitely try not to let it bring you down.

********

Oh I am getting so impatient. It's funny because I used to have such anxiety about losing weight, but now I'm just impatient and excited.

158 will be my biggest milestone yet, and I'm just so anxious (in a good way) to hit it.

Monday's are my "official" weigh-in days, but I weigh pretty much every day. So, my ticker and whatnot will not change until then, but this morning I weighed in at 162.0!

Last week was a major weight loss comment week. A number of people at work and some family.

I saw my aunt for the first time in awhile yesterday. The last time she saw me I was about 243-246. When my dad, grandma and I were walking to her car, she literally jumped out, ran up to me and hugged me saying, "oh my god!"

She said she thought by the way my grandma was talking that I had just dropped some, and that I wouldn't be half my size lol

It was quite humerous.

Anyway, I hope everyone enjoys their weekend

Hello Everyone! Thanks for the kind words. I honestly wish I could be like other women and laugh it off. *sigh*

My weight stayed the same. It's ok since TOM should be here soon. (I never know the exact day it will be here.)

Spunker - I'm so very happy for you! YOU GO GIRL!!

thank you. i do calorie counting.. usually anywhere from 1000-1500 a day on the average with mostly fruits and my workouts consist of walking & joggin mostly just swimming or fast pace walking (not speed walking either, just a little faster than regular walking).

I lost 40 LBS with WATP DVD (I averaged 7 miles a day) I was using WW pure Points software. My pts vaule was 24. I heard that it about 50 cals per point. (1200 cals) I didn't get the results you are but always knew I was a turtle when it came to weight loss. I'm so impressed!! Like I said many congrats and bows!

mezmerize, that is awesome, losing 40lbs from WATP and WW!

pinupdreams, that is awesome! congrats! I think that can be really motivating to be able to see such good results from just walking and jogging! I think it shows that something as simple as that can give you good results, that you don't have to over work yourself for it.

******

This hasn't been a very good week. When I started the prozac, I went 6 days w/o b/ping, but from there it went daily. As of last Wednesday, I started having some complications, which proved scarey by Sunday (would have called 911 if I had use of my hands - and was able to contact a neighbor by knocking on their door).

I didn't end up going to the ER until yesterday (after I improved a lot of symptoms by drinking pedialyte and gatorade) - my therapist took me as well as advised by a clinic.

The staff there were so ignorant - durina psych evaluation, the case worker asked about the eating. I told her I mainly binged during 2006, so the purging didn't become consistant until about mid-december. She thought binging was eating and throwing up, and asked me what purging was...

I got sent home with a script for potassium pills (low potassium) and was told I had a stomach bug... I was up front and honest about everything. It all went in one ear and out the other...

I'm working with my therapist to find an Intensive Outpatient Program for it, but it may take a bit.

I'm feeling really put out right now as I gained 7.4 pounds over night. Yesterday I was 162.2 and woke up this morning 169.6! So... um, yeah. That's disappointing.

Spunker - I'm sorry to hear about your bad reaction to the meds. I'm glad your you were able to find a cure. Hope you feel 100% soon! We had the stomach bug hit here lastweek. No fun!! Do you like bannanas? I know they are a bit high in cals. for some but when I'm cramping w/TOM and feel sluggish they seem to do the trick. Fingers crossed on the Intensive Outpatient Program. I know what you mean about things going in one ear and out the other! Some people!!

As for me well I stepped on the scale and up 2 lbs! I've been watching what I eat so I'm sure it's because of TOM usually have a 5lbs gain. UGH!! I've been feeling bloated and craving chocolate and just plain craving!!! Plus the cramps are terrible! I can't get a break even when I'm sleeping I dream my cramps hurt. They woke me up lastnight... My doctor gave me a strong advil med. One must eat something with it and sit up for 30 minute when you take it or else heartburn. So I'll take it 45 minutes before bed. Still wakes me!! I've been up since 3 a.m. I'm also going to start taking Alli I think Monday.
I've bought the starter pack. I'm now getting things ready. I think will be an helpful TOOL for me. For a couple good reason.
1. My husband tends to offer me high fat food. (I'm sure he won't do this if I take it)
2. It will help me to make better choices in my foods because of the horrible "Treatment Effects"
I will keep you posted on my prgress.
I know this is not for everyone. I don't see it as a CURE for my overweight problem just as a tool to help get me on the right track.

everyone!

Spunker ~ I'm so sorry sweetheart! You know we're here for you.

Mez ~ I'm curious about this Alli. Lots of hype. Definitely keep us posted.


I'm down 1.4 this week. My father's day was just another day. I called my stepfather and said hi, didn't bother with my worthless bio dad. I'm feeling so good right now, so positive about the future and I think I owe it to my new kitty Tiger! I got him yesterday from my auntie. I knew as soon as I got him home that he's as crazy as me but that's okay. Right now we're in the stage of him getting to know his new home and owner. He won't let me touch him but he feels free to follow me around and climb all over my feet. Just like a man.

Today is my 1st day of taking alli (6/25) I was doing on the lowfat eating plan before todays start date until my husband decided to go on a "diet" with me!! I want him to be healthy but what does he do?? Stop Reading Massive food porn ahead! He buys donuts, cookies, sweet drinks, fast food all thurs - sunday. One last fling with this stuff!! I'm so made at myself. I was weak. I ate fast food for dinner to many times and gave into some sweets. GRRR well I'm up 4lbs. What can I say today is a new day! Had I taken alli I would not have eaten all that bad stuff. I'm just happy that when he was buying junk I was buying healthy foods. So this week I have all I need for my preplanned meals through myalliplan. YEAH ME for being at least a little good.

Checking in before bed. I took 2 alli pills today. I ate a late breakfast so considered that lunch. So far so good. I kept my fat to a min. taking the pill has really made me think is this (food porn) worth having a treatment effect! I'm totally afraid of that! I've not had any gas or anything else go wrong. I did go #1 alot today but I'm not sure if it's the water I drank. (100 oz) Which was fairly tipical to what I was drinking before alli. Maybe I just noticed it because the pill.
