Amy, sent you a PM, call me if you have a few minutes. Welcome home!

Everyone who has been asking about my knee... thank you for your kind thoughts! It's getting stronger day by day. My therapist said I should expect a full recovery within about 4 months. *sigh*

I will be blogging again today... someone left a VERY informative comment on my blog that I would love to share with everyone. Have a great day!
Hi Christin! Love your avi. You look beautiful.

Chritin glad your knee is doing well

or did you mean this---
Re:”I’m a Kimkins Newbie” Challenge 2008! 2 Hours, 15 Minutes ago
Kimmer:

“I don’t believe in starvation mode (you can read more in my blog). The whole point of gastric surgery or Lapband is to drastically cut calories. There was a woman on the Joy Luck Club (Today Show) recently who lost 125+ lbs after gastric surgery. Her surgeon was on the show with her. She is now a size 2 and described what she eats: 2-3 oz of protein first, then a small amount of veggies. If she’s full after a few ounces of protein, she passes on the veggies. Her example of how many asparagus she could eat was 2-4, plus a multivitamin.“

“Last night I heard part of the show “I Can Make You Thin” on TLC. He also mentioned that metabolism is not rigid, it’s flexible and rises and falls according to activity level and personal “build in” metabolism. This is what I’ve said for years. When you reduce calories your metabolism drops, but not drastically. When you reach goal and begin eating more, your metabolism will raise, but people need to eat less at goal. This is a shocker for some people. They didn’t “break” their metabolism — their body may be 50, 100, 200 pounds lighter. A 125 lb body needs much less “energy” (calories) than a 325 lb body.”

“Dr. Johnny Bowden is respected in the diet industry. He wrote in an article suggesting women can lose and maintain on 1250-1400 calories a day — men 1800.”

“Don’t force low calories, just eat clean … eat according to appetite. Be sure to take a good quality multivitamin (I like Centrum). Dr. Oz on Oprah suggested splitting the multivitamin in half because our bodies don’t process a mass dose of vitamins all at once.”

“The “tons of energy” is ketosis. Ain’t it great!”

Heidi use to yell at me for eating cashews in the evening and I still went from 183# to 126# having a small amount each evening.....

I always thought that Kimmer believed that she could lose the weight any time she wanted to by using her plan. I guess she's finding out the hard way that it's not that easy.

"Kimmer" said if she had to lose the weight again...she would water fast it off


but "Heidi" is a different story---she just isn't strong enough---she couldn't even get it off with WLS

See, that's what ticks me off so much! How she made everyone feel bad or weak or like failures, all the while seeming to have superior willpower. She was drinking Cap'n and eating sugar cookies while berating her PAID members! All under the guise of being that Russian red dress girl.

Again, that crap with the spritzer salad dressing, and a hand grab of bagged salad, or a jello cup size serving of broccoli!????????? All the while, being all snarky and putting anyone down who ate cheese or butter, or a low carb treat...... Telling the earnest dieters they don't want the weight loss, or "enjoy your pork rinds"....

Ya'll have been stewing about this for a while, but it has taken me THIS LONG to get FULLY caught up. I wasn't ever a member over there, but all you have to do is read the "Ask Scammer" threads or that thread she posted when she finally posted her avatar. Oh MY LANTA!!!!!

MILF......isn't that what she said she was? AND THAT SHE WAS CARDED WHEN SHE BOUGHT ALCOHOL????????

Double YIKES!

You are so beautiful. I understand what you are saying, because I've done the same thing. But, your precious children need a strong, healthy, nourished mommy!

I know you don't know me as well as these girls that were with you over on that "other site"....but, just know, my thoughts and prayers are with you.
