Just scanning the posts and I guess we were all in the same boat.
I bought some S/B and F/B today as well. I used my 10% off from book as well.
Today's my b-day and I'm back to weighing 35 down. Now to keep up the losses without any gains.
Got a call today to work next week at the cadet Summer Training Centre in Ottawa. (Connaught Ranges)
Gonna be an RSO. Range Safety Officer. Basically I run the range for Air Rifle shooting. Not very active, but keeps me from cruising the kitchen and fridge. I guess you could say that's my biggest downfall.
The only big issue with going away, is the messhall (food service) is geared to 12-18 years olds. Yep, you guessed it, lots of all the stuff I'm not supposed to eat.
Hopefully I can manage each meal the best of the selections for our plan.

Sorry, forgot to say, Good Job everybody. Enjoy the wedding Christina.
Headgirl, keep it up loser. Always nice to see a good weight on the scale.
Isabel, isn't it always the way. You finally decide to make your life better and then more happens.
Enough from me for now.

What exactly do the S/B and F/B do? I asked at my center but they told me I didn't need them yet but I do know they are of benefit, just not too sure what...lol

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Meekster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have fun at the wedding Christina. Hope everyone has a great weekend. I am doing nothing, I have to work tomorrow and hubby is out of town but that may not be a bad thing, I might be able to stay on track this weekend with no plans

F/B = Fat Blocker
S/B = Starch Blocker
My girls said there are different ways to take them. One being take one of each with the Chrom&2000 then take one of each after the meal. This is when you know you are unable to stay on plan. ie weddings, travelling, anniveraries.

Not really sure if they will work for me as I'm not taking them yet, but I'm going to next week.

Thankyou for the Birthday wishes.
Yeah, sometimes staying on plan is harder with others around.

I was wondering which of the S/B or F/B are better for drinking alcohol??

Not sure which you would use. I don't drink, so I've not thought about it.

I think I've pretty much fill this entire page. At least it gets my post count up. I'm now at 19. Only a few more to go before you can see my ticker.
It's 25 posts, right?

Hey girls

Had a rotten week. Did not even go in to the centre since Tuesday. Completly messed up my foood. Did not plan for the week and learned I cant do that. Today has been some what better. I must flush out as much as I can this weekend before I WI on Monday. Just gotta get back on the right track. It is way to easy fall into old habits.

Wishing you all the best this weekend!

Beautiful pics Christina!!!

I have a quick question...the lemon and hot water...is it ok to use the lemon juice out of the little plastic lemon? I dont have any lemons in the house so thats what Im using tonight

Hi everyone!!

Christina you are absolutely beautiful in your dress!

I wanted to let headgirl know that F/B is for fat and restaurant food and S/B is for sugar, carbs and alcohol. My ladies write everything on the bottles.

The told me that the F/B's are taken with the meal and the S/B's taken after about 1 hr. They have really saved me from a few bad choices.

I was in Calgary for a week visiting my sister and family and my wi was up 2 but for vacation I can take that. Mostly water I think...ate alot of hotdogs... something about food cooked out doors on an open fire....i have no self control these days....

also for the lemon... I bought a product called true lemon & true lime...it is a crystalized lemon packet and has no calories ,fat, carb or anything...nice to carry around in your purse as it looks like a sugar packet...nice change from just regular water too....I have only found it at safeway in the koolaide isle...I totally love it...add it to hot water or sometimes tea.....

I am still on vacation 1 more week and I think I will try planning my weeks meals as well cuz then I am also more likely to stick to a plan then just winging it.....

I had some bad news on Friday before I left for Calgary...Found out a very good friend of mine from high school (she married my cousin too) committed suicide the day before. She was very sad over the death of her son (suicide as well) and just could not get past it. She had everything all planned out...apt packed up and cat taken care of...kind of blew me away and I said "screw it I am going to enjoy myself...but even though I am angry at her I can totally understand....I could not imagine losing one of my kids....and speaking that I have to go pick up my son from work now...take care ladies have a great week and will let you know about tomorrow wi...started cla for 1 week so they are going to measure me...my consultant said she took cla 2 weeks before her wedding and dropped 2 sizes from 12 to 8!!! I am up for that...so I will let you know in the morning how it all went....:)

Ok I was told S/B were surgar blockers. I was going on a houseboat for a week and took them whenever I had margiritas.. ;)

Sorry i have not updated in a while.. moving

I am down to 176..so in 3 months 208- 176 :)

Sweet pictures C!

191.2 this am bleh!!! I ended up eating a couple TBS of natural peanut buttter around midnight as I was hungry and couldnt sleep:( Beter than what I wanted to eat I guess. We'll see what they say at my weigh in

Cla
 

Is anyone taking the cla? If so do you find it works? When did you start taking it and how much do you take?

I too am dreading weigh in today, had a baby shower this past weekend and too many foods right in front of my face.

It seems like I will do well and then have a huge setback.

grrr my weigh in was 192.2...the hm consultant was disappointed. I was too...but then I know what it was this am so thats what I am going by.

I inquired about the CLA and its $40 something a bottle 1 bottle the first week and then 1 every 2 weeks thereafter. I cant afford that too so I went to Shoppers and got some for $17 so I guess we'll see.

Well back to work have a great day girls!!

Thanks for all the info on the s/b. I take CLA and seem to have been having good results. You can buy the exact same CLA as herbal magic at Sangster's for double the quantity (90 pills) for 24.99. I thought I would be so good this weekend but I went to a stagette, had a few too many and then had onion rings after the bar......so needless to say I am very worried about WI tomorrow. And to top it all off TOM came today so that will definately not help at all.....grr. I did take s/b's the night of the stagette but I am still very worried about WI cause of tom. I worked out for 2 hours yesterday to try get rid of the onion rings...lol.

Nice pictures Christina

And welcome halfbaked!!!!

Sandy I am so sorry to hear about your friend..............

The tip on the true lemon.....I totally agree with, it is amazing stuff, I love it in my water so it has the little bit of extra zip. The lime is good and I have seen in ads they have true orange too whcih would be great but it is not available in Saskatchewan yet. Also, I am soooo excited, I am a coffee drinker, big time, and again since it is not available in Saskatchewan anywhere I ordered like 6 cases of the different flavoured splenda packets they sell in the states. I had to pay alot more because of the shipping but it will be so awesome to have flavour in my coffee again!!

Oh, and one more thing.....don't worry meekster about all the posts......we are both in the same boat....lol. Only 5 more till my ticker!!!!!!!

Sandy... sorry to hear about your friend :hug:

Went in for my wi today after going out to the bar with my friends and my best friend and drank way too much, they hit me hard and fast too.I ate good this week-end except for one meal but wasnt that bad still. I gained .2 Lbs over the weekend, so I came home today, put on my ipod and mowed the lawn.

I have to lose those .2 Lbs and more by Friday's wi. Atleast I reached my first 10 Lb goal and now to the next 10 LBS, I hit that then I'm buying myself 1 new outfit. My first 10 Lbs I really didnt get anything, couldnt think of anything for that one.

Congrats on everyone losing!! Great job!!

Maybe one of these days I will get to 25 posts and get my tickers too, I get busy and cant get in here to post so its gonna take forever.

Well gonna look at other posts and have a good night.

oh ya, is anyone watching The Biggest loser? It's the new one already and it was the second week so 2 have been voted off already. Theres 2 guys I dont like already and they need to be voted off right away, their on the red team.
