Default Tried Something New

Well, I got the courage up to try something new last night for dinner. I cooked a huge meal for the family and I steamed some broccolli. After I steamed it, I sprayed it with that "I Can't Believe it's Not Butter" spray. Oh my gosh, it was delicious. Of course, I could only eat a few bites, but I had been craving broccolli and it was sooooo good. Go figure. I never imagined craving something that was actually good for me.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I am so determined to get the scales to move. I have been so aggravated lately. The scales haven't moved in well over a week. It makes me wonder if this is going to work for me. I am almost panicing.

Christy...read the rules again....and remember, if you are working the plan, the PLAN WILL WORK!!!

They don't tell you before surgery that Pouchy will have a mind of its own.....and you have no control over this! You are VERY early out...and when's the last time you've lost this much weight in such a short time span?

Keep your eye on the prize hun...and don't panic or get discouraged...we are all on this roller coaster together, and I assure you....you are doing NOTHING wrong!!! (see my thread on the voices...you'll get a kick out of it!!!)

Thanks Kathy. I just love this place and all the support. I promise I'm not giving up. I am just discouraged.

Congrats on the good cravings! I am still on the pureed portion of the diet and broccoli is a no- no. As far as you being frustrated about the weight loss... read the SIZE 12 post by klemaire, she says she hasn't lost much weight lately either but that her clothes sizes are going down. Keep up the great work.

I know at the beginning I was weighing myself too often and would get discourage. i now myself maybe every two weeks.....and am pleasantly suprised. Right after surgery there is swelling and your body reacting to the sudden change.

Thanks for the encouragement. One of the attorneys where I work talked to me during lunch today and said that his brother had the surgery done a couple of years ago. He said the process may be slow in the beginning, but he said "you'll look up 6 months from now and wonder where you went". That helped me feel better too.

And, I tried broccolli again for lunch today and Mr. Pouch didn't like it at all today. What is the deal with that?
