Talking I had to share!!!
I just wanted to share in a couple of small victories for me today.

the first is i was offered to order lunch at Gourmet gnag....a extremely good place to eat.... not bad onb the healthy stuff either. But i could not find their nutrional info so i said no. I wanted to know how many calories it would be before i ate it.

The second was when i just walked through our front lobby here at work someone said "are you loosing weight??" I was so happy to say "Why yes i am!"

I guess i should have posted this in like the "September Thread" but i was too excited to remeber to do that lol.

That is such a great feeling! I love it when I'm in the zone with my thinking, rather than when I feel weak and it's hard to make good choices. Congrats!!!

Good job! You must feel so accomplished just by receiving that compliment! Especially after turning down a "yummy" lunch. It was a very smart choice to say no just because you couldn't find the info, you never know what restaurants put in things. For example, some places like Chili's, their salads contain the highest amount of calories and fat, gross!

Keep up the good work!

to every1 for your encouragement!

tater tash- I am glad i made tht choice too. if i do not know what is actually in it then i do not want it in my body. I know what you mean about the Chilli's salad thing. I mean you think you may be getting something good and healthy and they asically trick you and it is no more healthier than getting te burger and fries (well, maybe not that bad but you get the picture). Me and one of my coworkers were going to lunch one time to Tropical Smoothie because they always preach about how healthy they are. Anyway, we went on their website and we astounded by the amount of calories tht were in their wraps. None of them were under 550 calories!!!!! its crazy.

congratulations on your choices

it is so wonderful when someone notices your weight loss

I went from 340 to 168 pounds and I get noticed more now

sometimes I just say Yeah when someone says you lost a lot of weight

sometimes they want more information

like how did you do it

Oh, I work really hard at losing weight
and I had gastric surgery in Jan 08 I tell some of them

not all

after all

I do not want to boast too much




Linda
