I do know exactly what you are talking about eating while your time of grief....that can really take a toll on you...I have been in that haze now for almost 4 years, and I know now it's time to change and move forward....even though it is still very hard. Even with the food I was eating, I found no comfort! Once I join, I hope we run into one another at the Lincoln center. I have only met with Jeannie so she is the only one I know right now, so I think I want to stick with her when I join, she seems very nice. And I think, if I heard her correctly, that I will sign with the 17 weeks and then sign for 17 or 24 weeks after that....it's quite a cost savings. Jeannie did say that I can still lose without taking all the pills the center has to offer....so most of everything but the HNS's I can buy over the counter. I am glad now that I waited to join, because I have learned so much from everyone that posts here....it has truly helped, and motivated me! :carrot: |
Great Thread
I am really enjoying this thread, seems to mirror my own progress in these issues. Last time I was at MRC they didn't have the concentrates and I resisted using the HNS except for the jello, which seemed like a treat. I LOVE the concentrates, especially frozen, and have been known to drive with one hanging from my mouth like a pacifier, ha ha! I like to sip them slow, frozen or not. I want to hear more from those of you who said the HSN's helped you lose faster, why do you think that was, since they do add calories?
I think the most helpful thing is to go to the classes. We have an exceptional counselor here who does a lot of them. Sharon. Kathleen in Lakewood, CO (anyone else?) |

In last Thursday evenings' class, I said I would give you my MRC water bottle. I left it with Sharon for you. It is a dubious gift, as it smells highly of plastic, and I couldn't get it past my nose. It has been thru the dishwasher twice, although I never used it. I was trying to get rid of the smell first. It occured to me after I left it with Sharon, that I should have tried baking soda or vinegar, but I will leave that to you.
I see many people using them, so there has to be a way to get rid of the smell. This is a national forum, so maybe others have an idea how to abolish the plastic-y stink. Anyway, I won it in the last balloon pop contest, so maybe they were trying to get rid of old stock. There is another balloon pop contest going on over the 4th of July weekend. Weigh in on the Monday immediately following and if you have lost, you get to pop a balloon for a prize. Maybe you can win a less stinky one! |
I just started at the Lakewood center, but from what I was told yesterday it seems like the Center does a lot of little contests for the clients in order to keep things interesting. Sounds like fun.
