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

It's a Vodka epidemic!!!!!!

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!

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! :D

Yay! Catgirl is back! :cb: Welcome back!!

I just did a bio page just so everyone can get to know me better! TTYL

Evening Hello
 

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.

Oops forgot !!
 

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?

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?

New Ideas Would Be Great
 

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.
