I hope everyone had a great fourth! I love nuts but even the unsalted arent good for me, it triggers my wanting to overeat. I have been struggling with food lately. i am really into soup and it is really filling for me but the sodium is way to much and making the scale go up. All I can do is keep on keeping on. Sounds like everyone is doing so good. Oh and I saw you were all talking about Kashi Cookies, LOVE THEM! There really filling for me that I can only eat one, but very yummy. |

Pam - sorry to hear about your granddaughter Jayne - I am glad your recovery is going well and you are getting rid of the bloating. I have been MIA beacuse I did exactly what I planned to do with my first week off school, Nothing. I am now back and will be posting more. Looks like everyone is doing well. |

Hi everyone, just a short check in! Everyone seems to be doing good! I am sorry for being MIA, but school has been keeping me so busy that I have not been online much at all. I will be getting a break in June and then I start summer classes in July but I made that a little easier on myself as I am taking all online classes. |

Everyone is doing so good! I have been enjoying the lovely weather we are having here in Oregon. I have spent so much time outside of the house I actually have been staying home today just to relax before the busy week starts again. Hope everyone is having a great weekend! |

I have noticed that the SB frozen or cold foods are disappearing. I can no longer find the Frozen Pizza or my Chicken wraps I loved so much. Sun - I agree my breakfast doesnt look like breakfast either, I usually make enough dinner leftovers to have for breakfast. In a pinch I like oatmeal or I have yogurt and fruit. I have loved the nice weather we have been having. It has been so nice and sunny, I love it. |

Welcome New Members! I went to the Dr on Thursday and he prescribed me Water Pills finally. I am so sodium sensitive that I took my first pill on Thursday and by today I have already dropped 4 lbs of water. I retain water so easily and a lot of it. I am hoping this will help keep me balanced so I can focus more on good calories and good food instead of worrying all the time about how much sodium. Hope everyone is having a great Weekend! |

I see the Dr tomorrow and I hope he will prescribe me the water pills. I need some relief so I can stop focusing so much attention on it. WOW $24,000, that is alot. I new it was expensive, but that is a lot of money. Yeah having cobra insurance gets alittle crazy, because you dont have the same exact coverage. your at least getting things taken care of before it runs out. |

Jayne - My Dr got over booked so they moved me to this Thursday, so I wont find out about the RX till this week. Thanks for asking. Wow another art fair, that is great. I love renaissance fairs, it has been ages since I have been to one. I had a low key weekend, did homework and rested. I thought I did good food wise, but I still feel swollen from sodium and I didnt think it was that High. I may have to start eating really clean, which will be hard with being in school. Hope everyone had a good Easter! |

Denna - Way to go! I am so glad your broke your plateau! Karen - Sorry to hear about your being laid off Sun - The festival sounds like fun and wow walking for 4 hours, I cant wait till I can do that again. Things are going pretty good. I see the Dr thursday to ask him about a water pill to help with water retention. |

Keep up the good work everyone. Jayne - It is weird they have some over the counter but there more for bloating from periods. It does sound harmless but yes a Dr has to prescribe actual water pills. I just have to make sure he doesnt do what my old Dr did and prescribe to low a dose for my weight or else it wont work at all. I see him Thursday so I am hoping he will so I can get a good handle on the water retention. Sounds like you did a lot of walking, that is great and what fun.

Sun - Thanks and I know you know how it feels. The festival sounds fun! That is one thing I truly miss about being thinner, I use to be such a doer and on the go person and I too loved to look at every booth and I cant at this time, but that is a goal on my list. So I hope you have a wonderful time. I had a busy week at school and I plan to just rest, no exercise. I got enough exercise running around the school all week. I am also thinking of asking my Dr about a Water Pill, I suffer still from sodium and I just cant seem to keep in low enough, I get it close to the 2400 a day but I need to be lower. Well I hope everyone has a good weekend! |

Everyone did good for the month! Victoriagirl - I love the saying "Slow and Steady Wins the Race", that has been my saying since I started losing weight, especially when people ask why I am losing so slowly. NJ - Just keep moving in the forward direction and things will get better. Sun - I am sorry you had such a crazy month, but glad it is on the downward trend. It is amazing how fast weight comes back and how hard it is to take it off. I hope everyone is having a good day! |

andreal4444 - I dont know much about the atkins bars, I would just check and see how much sugar and carbs are in the bars and then see how you react to them. The South Beach foods we have the Wrap Kits and Frozen Pizza and the bars and packs, but that is all we have here in Oregon. Sun - Thank you for your kind words. I am enjoying the walking, it was such an accomplishment that I am still shocked I was able to do it. srdandekar - Congrats on the 1kg! |

NJ - I feel for you, but glad you told us because we are here and we care and it is ok, because it is done and today is a new day. I too have had that happen if I dont eat enough during the day then night comes and I am hungry and have to fight the urge to eat and sometimes I give in too. Sun - It was a landmark for me and very empowering! I have learned my body is stronger then I think and I can do more then I think and I have been testing the boundries and it feels good. So now that your going to be a rich woman I think there shoud be a 300+ group cruise on you....LOL Just kidding, spam is so awful. I am using this as my First of the month weigh in of 432, so 5 lbs for me for the month. I expected that because my hunger has been out of control so I was shocked I have lost anything. Hope everyone is having a good week! |

Sun - Loved the story they did on you and what an inspiration. I had a good day today. I actually was able to walk the distance from my class building to our G building which is 2 buildings away from where I was, so my walking is paying off. It felt so good to FINALLY be able to walk between the buildings. Hope everyone is having a good start to their weeks!

Christine - Thank you for the idea, I will have to try that, it would be good for when I want to have pasta or chicken. Sun - Glad you found what you were looking for, it is great when that happens. I love Walmart. Back to school for me on monday. I am hoping this term wont be so busy, but only time will tell. I am glad my hunger seems to be going away again. I dont know why it comes on so quickly and then stays a while and then leaves for a few months. I hope it stays away longer. |

I know what you mean about binges, there awful, it is almost like your not in your body. I mean when I have binged I knew I shouldnt be eating like that BUT I couldnt stop myself either. It is awful. I am glad your getting a handle on your binge and getting weight off. It is weird how it just sneaks up on you. I love movies, we have the on demand and I spent my whole spring break just watching a ton of movies I have been wanting to see. Back to school tomorrow, I am hoping this wont be too hard a term. |

Woo Hoo everyone is doing so good! Pam - I am glad your heart is not the cause of your problems. Kristy - Way to go, your doing so great! Sun - I laughed at your undies comment, I am glad you tossed the baggy ones. The boyfriend is healing up very nicely and we have had a very nice spring break. We have spent time out in the sunshine and have gotten to watch some good movies we missed during school. I have been having some major hunger going on lately. I thought it might have been from TOM but it is sticking around, it has been awful to fight. I am retaining some water too. I think I will up my walking since I have not been able to get to the trainer since the boyfriend had surgery. We will start back with the trainer in April. Also has anyone tried the Weight Watchers cheese? It is pretty good and lower in calories then other cheeses. I like the individual packaged cheddar, that is only 90 calories, I use it on salads sometimes. Anyone have a good sauce recipe that I could use to put on Brown Rice and Very thinly sliced Steak or Chicken? I thought about teriyaki but it is too thin and way to much sodium for me. any suggestions would be appreciated. |

It is awful how those binges just sneak up on you like that and then you have to repair the damage. I am glad things are getting better and I am sure it will all come off soon. I love portioned out foods, it works so well for me. I love just being able to grab and know exactly how much and how many calories. I love the little portion bags of Weight Watchers cheddar cheese. I use them sometimes on salads, only 90 calores. I am relaxing on spring break and the boyfriend is healing up really well and is getting back to normal. It has been so nice to just relax and watch movies. I am having some really bad hunger lately, I dont know if it is because of TOM or more head hunger or what but it has been so hard to control lately. I hope everyone keeps doing well and have a great day. |

Welcome Tony! Candice - Way to go! Sun - sorry to hear the weight is coming off slower. I am on spring break but plans got changed because my boyfriend had to go in for emergency out patient surgery. He is fine now and doing good and is getting around better then I would have thought. We are going to take it easy and just relax our spring break. I havent been able to exercise but my eating has been good so I am hoping it wont affect the scale. I am glad to see everyone is hanging in there. |

Just wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing. I am spring break from school and today was the first day I could sleep in. My boyfriend unexpectedly had to have an emergency out patient surgery, so we moved our last finals and he had it and is home and doing good. Now we can just relax and enjoy our spring break. I have been keeping to my plan. I took snacks with me to the hospital since I wasnt sure if they would have truly health food. I havent been exercising since all this happened and can feel it some, but I dont think it will affect the scale. Glad to see everyone is still hanging in there. |

Steph - Your garden sounds wonderful and how great to be eating fresh vegetables that you grew. Gracie - I am glad your plateu is over. I wouldnt worry about your April 1st goal, I bet you will come real close. I am hoping the weather gets better here, we have had 2 days of rain. We need the rain, but I am ready for it to be gone, plus it is cold here. Finals are almost done, Wednesday are the last 2. |

Jayne I am glad to hear your back on track and good luck with trying out the new foods. I too am a creature of habit with food, I eat the same thing till I am so tired of it I switch to another favorite and then back again. LOL |

Wow everyone is hanging in there and that is great! I have been busy getting ready for finals and then I can rest on spring break. We are staying home, but I plan to not study and relax, enjoy some exercising by going to the coast if the weather stays good and not think about school. 1. Do you have a nickname? - T or Tonna |
