Patty....you make me look like a complete slacker!!!! I hope those shakes work for you...I did protein shakes while on my diet and still have protein powder so I might just join you in a shaky shake or two! Altho' I have wobbly bits that shake anyway...this is quite different!:tongue:
No haven't seen him in ages. Forks over Knives recommends green smoothies too. Most vegan/veggie books/blogs have a version of this. I just throw in what I have.
I swear it really fills you up , I missed lunch today because I was working outside all day and I am just having supper now. Not good though I have to remember to eat at lunch.
Down .7 but it's actually more than that because I was up 2 at the beginning of the week. Green smoothies seem to be working well.
Maintained. Could be worse. Congrats on the progress and sticking to it.
Down .9, I am having a hard time getting to 160...almost there.Won't be weighing in again for a couple of weeks so good luck everyone.My goal is to maintain over the next 2 weeks, looks like a beautiful weekend here, so looking forward to it.
I am also looking forward to a great weekend outdoors.
actually lost 1 pound lol...but will not register that as any success since I creeped up into the next group of tens last 2 weeks.
Ditto on the sunshine this w/e!! Finally
At 213.0, so lost 2.2
I had lost more, but then Tuesday came and had to work at a place where an ex of mine works. I am a pathetic human being. How can I still love someone after all these years, is just pathetic. It continues to tear me apart. I was at 211 on that day, so gained 2 pounds since then. Will continue on though.
@curt way to go.
Relationships are a funny thing. Don't feel bad or guilty for how you feel, even if it means moving beyond the feelings because the relationship is over.
Have a good weekend everyone.
Thank you. It's hard not feeling bad since it has been so long. So long I'm embarrassed to say how many years. Of course everyone including her say obsession but I know the difference. So I have issues of letting go of my one true love. I wish there was a pill to erase someone. I will never be happy.
Curt, it must feel that way ( " I will never be happy " ) in your mind because you simply have not met another person yet that will erase her and renew your faith in love and friendship and companionship. I urge you to still remain hopeful, honestly you never know who that next day will bring into your life. Congrats on being top loser in our group!!
Sorry, it's hopeless. I won't experience love again. And frankly, I'm getting hopeless about the job situation also. Target hiring around 200 in my city and I didn't even get a phone call. I have my part-time job, which is 10 hours a month if I'm lucky and have an online temp job that pays by piece work, so better than nothing, but still, can't support myself or my daughter like this. Hard not feeling like a failure... Boohoo...anyways...
Good luck this week and thank you.
Wow, that does suck Curt, if only I had a magic wand.....well I am heading out back soon to force feed my body some Vitamin D!!
( the sun is bright now)
Getting a really good start on my farmers tan :)
Wow! With Little Easter on the horizon, I completely forgot about my weigh-in on Friday! Made cinnamon buns with a home-made caramel glaze since I was out of icing sugar, then sweet bread....I shouldn't be talking about this!!!
As of today, I've maintained...okay, maybe a couple of ounces loss, but I feel that's a real bonus since I mis-behaved on the weekend, esp on Sunday's bbq at the kids' home with the other inlaws....This is another week and hopefully I won't forget about Friday again!!
Curt, congrats on being this week's weight-loss champ!!!
Time to get serious. Tomorrow is a new beginning.
Had to take my dad to emerg. this morning . Same problem as before hopefully he will not require surgery.
started drinking a protein smoothie after work each day. It is supposed to help me stay full and avoid that tempting after work snack demon time. So far it has been just ok. Such great stuff in them, but I guess I am just not a smoothie person, or maybe it is the smell of the powder that I find turns me off. It is already Hump day!!
I have a kale, romaine, fruit, flax seed smoothie now every morning, it fills me up a lot.
Good morning my dear friends. I haven't had time to read back through the posts yet, but I trust you are all doing your very best with your lifestyle changes. Patty, how is your dad? I'm making (well currently having made for me) smoothies in the morning too. I put lots of spinach, flax seed and other things that are great for you, Then, fill with frozen peaches, strawberries, blueberries or whatever frozen fruit I have tucked into the freezer. They really do fill a person up and are so great tasting. I truly hope you all have an amazing day :)
Man?? what is it with the smoothies eh? Seems more and more people are opting for them. Even a coworker brings in his Bullet blender and does much the same as you Patty. kale, spinach, flax seed, also sunflower seeds, sweet potato and some other things I cannot remember, it all looks green when it is mixed anyway, lol!!
I had a protein shake today...blech...maybe I should opt to smoothies...
Yeah somehow no matter what you put in it green it is :P
Down 2.4, probably because my dad is back in the hospital and now one of my cat's is missing, this week sucked. Hopefully my dad is getting out today.
