  • 25.4 pounds down.....almost reaching my 150 goal...

    I look in the mirror and still see things I don't like. I suppose it wouldn't be as bad, if I could work out more. Until my back is worked on, I'm stuck.

    My mother in law will be leaving tomorrow morning. I'm very sad about this. I know I'm going to cry. I love her so much, I wish we could keep her forever.

    My weight this morning the first time I stepped on the scale, was 158.8lbs. However, I didn't believe it. I stepped on again and it was 159.2lbs. I stepped on a third time it didn't change. I knew then the real answer. I'm still okay with it. Its a total lost of 25.4, that's all I care about.

    My back being out is a big part of that. I can't eat more than a few bites at a time...but not really hungry either. Got the GNC stuff again, so that's also kick starting everything.

    Once my MIL is gone, I'm going to start walking again. If I can't do anything else, I will at least walk. The dogs will LOVE it.

    Guess that's it from the peanut gallery for now. laughing

  • @onceagain_x -  I use OxyElite Pro. Its awesome stuff. I buy it with my GNC gold card discount the first week of the month. Its cheapest then. Sometimes drugstore.com has it cheap too. I've lost over 24 lbs on it now. 

  • @no1knowsmyfriendana - does it make you have bathroom issues? lol, i know that sounds weird but im curious. i have to find out if its made with lactose/milk ingredients...i am almost done breastfeeding, she is about all weaned off (she self weaned when i started supplementing b.c she wasnt gaining weight) so i am thinking about taking something again im just not sure what...i need to get rid of this weight, it's killing me...

  • @no1knowsmyfriendana - oh and outta curiosity...does J know you take it?

  • @onceagain_x - No bathroom issues with it. Mostly gives you energy. Its a thermogenic. AND, NO, J doesn't know.........I just take 2 in the morning along with my daily vites & glass of water. He knows I take my vites every morning. I just added those to my routine. It says to take them for no longer than 8 weeks at a time. There has to be a rest period. I had a rest period, so my weight stalled. Once I started them again, I dropped more. Now I don't know what my weight is. J has been home a lot lately & since my adjustment, he knows I can eat again....so he watches to ensure I DO EAT. When we're in bed, I noticed he's been running his hand over my hip bones. He use to do that before to check & make sure I'm not too bony. I told him I'd let him know my weight this time. Last he knew I was at 163 lbs when his mom came up. When she left, I was 158-159. Lost 4-5 lbs while she was here. My back hurt so bad, I couldn't eat more than 2 bites of food at any given time without feeling sick.
    Since he's been home again, I've stopped weighing. That way when he asks my weight, I can be honest & say, "I don't know, last I check...I was 158-159ish." Then leave it at that. Since eating again, I've probably put on a pound or 2, but he leaves tomorrow....so the weight will fall off again as he leaves. lol That's how it usually goes.
    Ingredients are bauhinia purpurea leaf & pod extract, bacopa leaf extract, etc. along with Caffeine. Many have had great results with it, some say it did nothing for them. It depends on their body.
    It suppresses my appetite, so I don't feel like eating. You do have to drink a lot of water with it, but I think all diet things say that. Its what the body needs most.

  • awesome thank you for all the info :) i plan on doing it just the 8 weeks and leave it at that...if it went slower than i thought then after the holidays i'll pick it up for one more round...i just dont want to fall into the taking them when i dont need to and abusing them like i have before...that is why i told D so he can keep me in check and also, my mood/depression/anxiety can flare when i am on certain ones so, also keep me in check this way...he knows i want to lose weight. he knows its a good amount considering what i am now (174) and where i want to be at the end of the pills (120ish) so i might need to do 2 rounds....i have just about lost all the baby weight...now i need to work on the rest!!

  • @onceagain_x - I saw the pics of you, I would have never guessed your weight was 165, much less 170's! You look fabulous!
