Loss

[sereneorange]

I am down by 28.5 bls now. I feel great. I don't have any blood sugar issues anymore. By this time last month, I was down 13 bls. That means I have done 15 more in a month. My pants are baggier (I took most my slacks and washed and dried them on high twice to try to shrink a bit.) The jeans I bought in a smaller size last month are getting a big saggy in the booty. The best part is the way I feel. I just feel good all the time. It is nice. No headaches. No hypoglycemia. No falling asleep at work. I just feel damn good.

Still cannot give up coke. I have one, sometimes 2 a day. Occasionally, I have none. It isn't good for me, but it is a vast improvement over my 6-9 a day I previously had.

Congratulations on your achievement! As for the Coke, try switching to Diet Coke; at least you'll be consuming fewer calories. I gave up sodas altogether (used to be a Diet Pepsiholic) in 2004, and have never felt better.

I have tried numerous times. I just hate the taste of the artificial sweetner. I don't mind drinking water instead, but when I want a coke, a diet coke doesn't suffice.

i dont like most diet sodas cos of the aspartame but i DO like the diet ones that are made with splenda... like pepsi one or they even had diet coke made with splenda but its kinda hard to find.. but worth picking some up.. they dont have the same after taste

[serene-orange.livejournal.com]

tried those, too.

Fair enough, but as my personal trainer said to me when I made an almost identical argument about preferring the taste of Diet Pepsi to water: "Who's in control? You, or the craving?"

Now, you could try new Coke Zero; according to the commercials, it tastes just like full-sugared Coke...

[serene-orange.livejournal.com]

nope. Coke zero tastes like ass, too.

Yay for you!!! That's wonderful! I'm still stuck, but I found out today that I've lost a total of 12 inches in my hips...I'm a foot less in the butt! lol And now I'm dating a cop of all things. :\

[serene-orange.livejournal.com]

stay cautious about the cop. I cannot stand them.

"Coke" is a proper noun, woman. Because when I read that sentence, the first thing I thought was "...What? She does coke???" :| I'm half asleep when I read my friends page....

[serene-orange.livejournal.com]

jeebus, you should know me better than that.

[iamgeekgoddess.livejournal.com]

mega kudos!
What are you doing?
lol, btw I think you should clarify Coke the drink..I totally read that wrong..

[serene-orange.livejournal.com]

not eating crap. Cut down the soda's majorly, less bread, almost no sugar, no fried foods, no fast food, go for at least a short walk every day.

very proud of you. How are going about doing it? Are you using quick weight loss centers, weight watchers, or just regular diet and exercise?
