Hey ladies, I have a delicate question......

Any problems with elimination?? If I don't get up at 5:30 in the morning, nothing happens argggggggg like this morning, I had a day off, got up at 8 and nothing all day....so I didnt go to the center cause I've had a really bad week so far and didn't want to register my week with a gain :-(

It's been an ongoing battle for me since the start in April which is probably why I gain every Monday. Sucks cause I am so good at staying on plan!!!!

Besides that, had to rush my Mom to the Montreal hospital yesterday (2 hour drive) and my Dad is slowly recovering from his last chemo treatment. My son has been gone 4 weeks in his Army cadet camp and is too busy to call his old Mom!! Ha Ha!

Either then that, still at 29 pounds lost till tomorrow's Wi...we'll see :-)

Great job ladies and Christina, so glad to see you are back on the wagon and cheering for yourself xox

Be back tomorrow with hopefully good news. Good night losers :-)

Sexyness...
Yes our loss is close but check out the difference in inches grrrr LOL actually you started before me ...I started July 9. In all honesty inches count wayyy more than the number on the scale and my inches arent going so fast...Im only at 7.5 inches. Who knew I had so much water in me hahaha.
I have good days and bad days...lately alot more bad days. It's almost like I am sabotaging myself on purpose...maybe I am who knows. I am sick of being fat but I also dont like change. I seem to be doing alot of binging lately. I get on my high horse about how all these other people can eat crap so why cant I...then I feel guilty. Between yesterday and today I have had BK, KFC and a pecan maple danish. I never used to eat junk as it was except fridays so I have no idea whats going on. I hate the way I feel afterwards and sometimes I can even make myself sick. I dont mean sticking my finger down my throat!! I mean I will think about it so long that I actually get sick...vomit. Thats not good either!!! Then you have nothing in your stomach and thats not healthy either. Sigh...what a journey.

Uggh up .4! boowoo.

The centre thinks I have plateaued so I am starting wm 4000 on Monday and going on the no carbs after 4 and no free exchange for a week..hopefully this kicks my body into loss.

I am still losing inches more then 2 a week..but the scale is really making me depressed.

I also have the issues with elimanation and they are upping my fibre or something cause its no good.

I am pretty much at my hafway goal with 5 months to go so lots of time to get to my goal on Jan1!

Hey im new obviously lol
yeah i just started the Herbal Magic diet on Thursday it seems pretty straight forward but i think my down fall is giving up all the sweets but im excited to get to where i wanna be and it looks like it worked for all of you

Welcome bored!

Wishing you all the success with HM!

Welcome bored :-)

1 pound loss this week gang. Pretty happy considering I was at gain until yesterday. 30 Down yessssssssssssssssss and 29 inches :-)

Happy Sunday xox

yeah when i went in for my first weigh in after starting this i dropped 1.6

taking chances...
so you can only have meat after umm I think you said 4 ...thats going to be hard I think

halfbaked..... sounds like me for the most part too. I struggle mostly when I dont have meals planned for the week and when my family wants to eat out or go out for a ice cream cone after dinner, I dont like the frozen yogurt at the ice cream shops that much. I feel really guilty after I eat bad too, then I think its so much easier to be fat than work my butt off to get skinny, then I come back and think what the heck? I want to be skinny I know I'm happier when I'm skinny like I was before my kids.I like seeing the results already so that helps me to keep going.
I like my inches loss but not my lbs loss its not enough I'm just maintaining because of the pills they put me on due to my galbladder and now they put me back on my original pills plus the medical pill so its 4 pills(I counted wrong before thought it was 5) I'm not a pill person so I'll be talking to them on Tuesday when they reopen from the long weekend.They said now that I'm on my original pills I will lose weight again.

Your doing good halfbake keep it up, we'll be here for each other.
I have to get back on track and plan meals and excercise!! we can do it Halfbaked

bored, its a great place to be!!

NO carbs after 4.. so I leave fruits for the evening and it is going well but I also am in bed by say 10.. not a late person or TV person.

No free exchange this week.. this is going to be harsh!

I so dont understand because fruits are carbs...big ones because of their sugar etc.. Basically the only thing thats not a carb is your protien sources:S

I was told no fruits or starch after 4 which is hard for the starch part because I like potatoes and rice and pasta for supper.HM told me to make some for supper but dont eat it and save it for my next days lunch. I dont do that all the time though, like tonight I had skinless boneless chicken breast with lemon on it and mashed potatoes and veggies..oops*L*
I havent been wi since Friday so I guess I will find out tomorrow how bad I did.
How did everybody do? I'm sure you did really good, but if not don't worry we can do this together

Itsgreattobeme.....Wow congrats to you 30 lbs is amazing!!!!

Bored......Welcome and congrats on your first losses


Sexyness.....LoL we should have hooked up as we ate the same thing for dinner...would have been less cooking hehehe

Hi Tammy,

I hear you on the lack of eliminations... at least I did...

One word FIBREMAX.

It's a powder fibre booster (your gals at your centre will have tons of info on it) It tastes nasty but it works... just like that famous cough syrup. I haven't had a problem since starting one 1/2 tsp before bed and it sure cleans your insides up. May help with a little weight loss too i've been told since it does have a little bit of a cleansing effect.

Also... I was an officer at an Air Cadet camp for 3 summers. He's having a good time if he's not calling mom. We worry when they call mom too often lol.

Good luck everyone with your weigh ins today. I'll be heading to see the damage I have done over the long weekend after work today.
