Everyone is doing so well!! Congrats to all.

I did find some Thomas' Healthy Grains Bagels and even though I was a bit nervous to try them, they are great. They are a large bagel with 290 calories/2 fat grams, but they have 8 grams of fiber. Very filling. I even took a sandwich to Bingo (I didn't win) made with it. I had 2% cheese and low fat salami with pepperocini and red onion, mmmm. I also brought some baked chips, a plum and a banana. I felt like I'd brought a picnic I didn't even miss the double cheeseburger and fries I used to order there.

Hope everyone has a great day!!

Sounds good will have to use my bagel when we go to the park to make a sandwich with. Better than going to subway.

thanks all! I imagine that there will be a little more than an initial 1 lb. loss this week (which brings me to the 60 lbs I guess).

I had salmon tonight for dinner so I might wait to take the first pill until Tuesday and make sure I cleanse a bit more...no treatment effects for me!

Have a good week all!

I just typed up a really long response post and it disappeared!! I hate that! I'm at work so I have to make it short and sweet. Thanks so much for everyone's responses I am going to be careful and ease into the Alli program. I have a small frame that doesn't flatter 134 lbs., and I look at the beautiful clothes I wore and all the pictures I took when I hit my lowest weight (122, I think) and really want that to happen again. My start date is this Wednesday, that is my day off of work (can you tell I am nervous about te's?). I am getting my diet in order and will be careful with the Alli. I hope everyone has a great Monday!!

Good morning all! They just can't get along without me at work - I't 10AM and I've already gotten 2 calls from work. Geez, what will they do when I lose all of my weight and win America's Next Top Model - Short & Senior competition?

Changed the avitar to show my two kitties. Annoying as the male is (the lighter colored one) he's a sweetie. The female beats the crap out of him at least once a week, just to show him she's still queen of the house.

Had a good weekend, didn't do much of anything. I'm on my way out to start trimming the hedges and cleaning up the front flower beds. It rained yesterday so should be great for pulling weeds! Talk to you later.

well weigh in day today and i lost another pound..brings me to 5 lbs.. so i am not complaining. got off track sunday but am motivated by the loss and on alli bandwagon today. bobbigene your cats are cute. i have two also and they fight all the time. kobe watch all the fat you eat and you shouldnt have te. alli helps me stay away from the high fat junk i love and is helping me love the good stuff. i feel the difference too..sue

Good Morning All,


Got2gethealthy- Congrats on the loss!!

To All just starting- don't worry too much about TE's, been on Alli a month and have not had one yet. Just keep your fats at or below targets and you'll be fine.

bobbi- all that yard work will be great exercise!!

Yesterday I had one of those days where I just wanted to eat..and eat..and eat. I'm not sure why, but I was a bit down, so I think I was trying to comfort myself. I didn't eat anything bad, just good stuff, often. I was very proud of the fact that I didn't reach for forbidden foods...now thats progress. Today I'm feeling pretty good. Need to get off this computer and clean up the weekend mess.

Tomorrow is my official weigh in date, but I weigh in every day anyway. I'm down 1 lb this week so far. We'll see what tomorrow brings. If the pound is my loss for the week, I'll be fine with it.

GREAT DAYS TO ALL!!

Yes that is great progress not to go for the bad foods and just eat the good stuff when you want to eat eat eat way to go. Nice weight loss again.

I just am not taking in enough fat I don't think to use the Alli yet. I could be wrong. Way to go on the weight loss.

Pretty cats, sounds like mine, he beats up the Lab once a week just to keep things in order lol. Oh I will be right there beside you at the contest. Short sassy lol.

I was so surprised to find out how much fat and such was in salmon. I thought oh this is good for me and then found out what was in it.

I am getting ready to start the new thread....sorry for the delay!
