I'm not seeing some of these posts... cause I'm confused. I can see
something that says something about buttered toast and D'Ann
responding but I'm not seeing the original post.
I'm 16 months out and have stopped losing. I didn't come anywhere near
my goal. At my yearly appointment they told me that I probably
wouldn't lose anymore and this was probably my natural weight. At the
time I was walking an hour a day 3-6 days a week and exercising with
weights and floor exercises for another hour a day. The clinic people
freaked out and told me I was doing too much. I was feeling great but
wasn't losing any weight doing it. They way the freaked out and the
realization I wasn't losing any weight AND school letting out so I
couldn't walk consistently with my son around and I just gave up
everything. Finally talked to my primary care doctor and he told me to
ignore the clinic and do what felt good to me. He said the clinic was
probably scared I was becoming addicted to the exercise... I can
assure everyone... that will not happen. I hate it! It was a chore for
me to make myself do it every day. He also said I would probably get
bored and taper off what I was doing. Man was he right... When school
starts up again I hope to start walking 4-5 days a week again and as
of today I have started my exercise routine back up. I just have to
make myself realize that this is something I have to do to feel good.
If I never lose another pound (cries) I'll be ok if I just get into shape.
I tried to check out the MAX WLX website, but geez, they want your SS
number just to get information. Not happening. Even if I wanted to buy
it I'm not giving up SS number.
So Julia... explain please :) Ignore the cafe... I canceled my
membership with them after being made to feel bad after a couple
posts. I didn't need that stress.
It's quiet here unlike the cafe. How many months out before you stopped losing? Did you reach goal? It'll be 18 mo. Fri. and I'm fluctuating about 5 lbs. I...
It was like at 10 months, I stopped losing. This summer has been terrible for my dieting. I've not be able to walk so that is probably why I feel so "fat"....

Congratulations! I can see how it would be hard to be pregnant right after surgery. Since our cravings and tastes are so different during pregnancy maybe...
People look at me like I'm nut when I say I've gained 1-5 lbs. But if I don't keep a watch on it, it will get out of control and my surgery will be in vain....

Patty, you did not take the easy way out. If you had, you would not be having all these feelings and concerns. I don't want to say problems because it's just...

Judy, Sorry you couldn't get the info. SS isn't even required to order. Don't know what happened. I should have posted my website but after the incident...
Julia, So the MaxGXL is a vitamin supplement or a protein powder? I need some protein powder. I was buying Relive from someone but the vitamin powder did not...
There are 2 products--MaxGXL and MaxWLX. Neither is a protein nor a powder GXL is explained on the website. Click on PRODUCTS at the top of the homepage....
I feel like now that I am over a year out, almost 2 and I can eat almost anything, it is hard to think I need to go back on shakes. Some days I wish I could...
Oops, spell check grabbed the wrong word, I meant "Discipline" - that is what I have none of. (I hope I'm a disciple, lol) D'Ann aka "Petals the Clown" ...
One thing my nutritionist said was NO SNACKING! So far I have adhered to that. She said if I didn't break that habit, I'd be back where I started and my...
I am guilty of snacking. I need an accountability partner, someone who I can tell what I ate and help me. Not get mad when I mess up but I think just having...
You can drink sodas? They told us we can never have soft drinks again because of the carbonation and expanding the pouch, or something like that. Anyway, I'm...
I didn't have any soda the first year. Then after that I will shake them up if in a bottle to get the fizz out. Or I use a 2 liter, they go flat pretty fast....
It's hard when you're feeding kids. Maybe you could take just a pinch off of one. I think one thing that keeps me from snacking is that I'm drinking all the...
Weights… you need to lift weights too! And do interval training (groans) that is what they told me at the clinic. I started with the weights again this week...
After 18 mo. and 15-20 lbs. to goal, I am determined to reach goal. The last 2 mo. are just up and down 1-5 lbs. I've lost the same 20 lbs. 4 times over!...
I love it when that happens. My cousin came by to see a few weeks ago, the last time he saw me was a month after surgery. He was going through some things so...
I'm glad you said that. It makes no difference how much time I spend in front of a full length mirror, looking at myself at every angle, I still can't...
I have a couple of "fat" pics on my website, when I think about eating; those pics flash in front of my eyes. Both photos have my children in them. I'm hoping...
