Dria - you ROCK girl!! You must feel so good.
Can you explain why they gave you an xtra starch & fruit? Are you on maintenance or they are simply putting some variety in?
In my mind...I would put in a protein instead of a starch... but that's just me

cgy girl - keep it up!

Well, I went for WI last night... I lost what I had gained on Tuesday...
I'm at 219.8 (ok..I'm missing a big 0.2). I'm hoping to have a great week-end and to lose one to 2 pounds by Monday.

I had a goal from March... of getting at 216 by July 13... I won't be far but I don't think I can lose 3.8 in like 4 days...or maybe I'll be surprised...who knows... lol

Good Morning

I start Stab this morning.
They have thrown an extra starch and fruit at me to shock my system I think. Give me the hard to fight off weight food first. Wanna see what my body does right off the bat.
However Its two regular starches and then they ask I make my 3rd starch a LIGHT starch such as.... the arrow root cookies... or graham crackers or pop corn use it as starch instead of F.E. LIGHT starch what a crazy concept here I was excited to get more scetti lol
HOWEVER I can now use a 12" tortilla for my quasadillas (sp) and count it for 2 instead of trying to shove all my stuff into one tiny 6" one lol. And cause the tortilla is a lighter starch I can still have a heavier starch too.

Heavy starch... Breads Pasta Potatoes etc.

I have only JUST started working on in the last week. I turn my tv on and watch a movie or something and do 3 -50 sets of crunches. between that Im doing pilate like stretches and walking and running on the spot. More walking then running. Then about 2-3 nights a week weather depending I go walking for 2-3 miles with my Ipod and Puppy.

So you are done with WL?
You'll probably still lose during Stabilization... but less I figure.
How long for stabilization? Still taking the same pills?

I'm like this question machine this morning!! lol

so it took you 22 weeks to lose 56 pounds!
How great you must feel !!

In 14 weeks, I lost 31.2 pounds!
But it'll be a longer road for me cause my initial goal was 71 pounds... but I might end up going to 80...and maybe more! Time will tell

It's not a race and want to feel good

Amazing for you Dria...can't wait to feel the way you're feeling!!

Are you scared of actually being there... look not having anything to look forward too...? looking for the next big thing? Do you see what I'm saying?

I dont feel done....... Like Im still gonna be wanting to see the scale go down and if thats not what Im working for well then now what?!??!
You asked about my 115 well the past week Ive hovered at the 120.4-121 mark which isnt normal for me. So I read it as my body saying ok this is enough. And Im listening.
I can still go down.... watch what I eat. The more food thing is exciting but at the same time it seems like so much more food to get in. And my routine as Ive told you ladies before Im picky so eating the same things over and over day after day is no biggie for me..... but now this screws with my routine lol

Hi ladies,

I'm not having a great time. My clinic has me on so many pills I actually think I've overdosed on some of it. My chest is really tight and I have zero energy, my stomach can't handle any food and I'm getting depressed. At first I thought it was the start of the flu but I know my body well enough to know when something isn't right. I'm going off the pills for the weekend and increased my calories today so that I can recover. On Monday I am scaling back to just the WM2000 and chromium. I havn't been able to go below 200 no matter what I do either. My clinic rep kept trying to tell me I was doing something wrong but she admitted my diet was perfect and I was taking all the pills they recommended. I asked if I was taking too many pills and she said absolutely not. We'll see.

I'm not slamming HM but I do think that my particular rep is only out to make money and really is a ditz. She isn't taking any of my concerns seriously.

I am dying to get good advice from someone who knows what their talking about! I'm trying so hard to not give up. I guess we'll see on Monday. If I'm feeling better then I'll know it was the pills. Or too many of them would be more accurate.

Anyhow, keep losing ladies!

HEY EVERYONE....CGY...so sorry to hear you are having a great time...hope you made out well over the weekend!!

I went for WI this afternoon....and again...so happy to announce that I am down 3.25lbs...for a grand total of 12.5lbs gone!! I am already noticing a difference in how my clothes are fitting...clothes that I couldn't wear on the 24th of Last month...FIT!!!! I know the date...because that was my daughter's graduation...and there was a shirt that I wasn't able to wear because it fit be like a seals coat...yeah it was that tight...and now I am able to wear it comfortably!!!!

It sure is a great feeling to be shooting downwards on the scales...it is like an adventure each time I go to WI!!!

Off to change my stats!!

I didn't realize that summer vacation would get in the way of weight loss.

Arrgh !! It's so difficult to stick to the program with so many barbecues, having guests at the cottage, having the kids around...I can't even get all my water in because I'm never sure that I'll be near a restroom when I need one!

I WAS doing so well, but fell off track and am finding it so hard to get back on program and I'm only a few weeks into it! It's hard to get into the centre on a regular basis, it's hard to keep track of what I'm eating, it's just hard all the way around.

Sorry, just needed to vent.

I am happy for those of you that are doing well. Dria - way to go and congrats to everyone else who is losing. Keep it up. Although I haven't been able to post lately, I have been keeping up on reading your posts and I honestly think I would have given up if I didn't have all of you to inspire me. Thanks
