[ChubbyBear1960]

That was a great article. Thanks for reading it. i didn't even know that magazine existed! That was really timely for me as I am realizing this week how much I want to use food to cope with my job. Amazing. Thanks!

Way to go ms. Karen, I'm so proud of you. Great job.

Thanks for all the info. You are just wonderful.

How is your weather? I see that Atlanta is getting alot of rain and has alot of flooding going on. Hope your ok. Have a wonderful week. Glad you had a great time on vacation. Take care and God Bless

[WeightNoLonger]

Oh yes, we have had a lot of rain. 71 homes were damaged along with cars and schools. Nothing like they have ever seen before. We live 50 NE of Atlanta on a hill so we were just fine. The lake was having a draught last year and was down about 20 feet. It has risen about 3-4 feet in the last week and with the past rains we have had we are only down 3 feet now. Glad you liked the info I shared.

Congrats on reaching your < 250 goal! Thanks for sharing the OH article. I am a boredom eater I think more than a feelings eater... but I guess that's sort of the same eh?  Good video... take care!

[WeightNoLonger]

I know what you mean about boredom eater, I'm the same way and eat to procrastinate too. I guess they are still feelings.

congrats on being under 250!!!! did you read up on the Biotin vitamin for hair and nails....

[WeightNoLonger]

I didn't really read up on Biotin, it was recommended to me by our doctors office and the pharmacist. I'm STILL losing a bunch of hair.

Congrats on being under 250!!!! That is so exciting, isn't it?!? Thanks for confessing, makes us not feel alone :) Take care!

[WeightNoLonger]

Confessions are good for the soul, eh? LOL . I don't think any of us are perfect, even with surgery.

Can you record your stomach when you're hungry? Im sure some sounds will come up

[WeightNoLonger]

It doesn't make any noise. It's just an empty feeling.

You look GREAT and your going to be ok with a few cheats here and there! Does anyone have any long term statistics for the sleeve or even know how long it has been being done? Your vlogs are always so upbeat and helpful, it is great that you put them on. I missed ya last week so I hope you and your hubby had a good vacation!

[WeightNoLonger]

Thanks for the comments. They have been doing the sleeve in Europe, Mexico and Australia a lot longer than here. Seems like we area always about 5 years behind. The only data I have seen is short lived but positive.

[abcooper61]

Thank you for all your videos. I am just starting the process to have the Sleeve Gastrectomy and have enjoyed watching your videos. They are always full of good and usefull info I can use.

You are doing great with your weight loss I hope I can do as well.

[WeightNoLonger]

Thanks for the comments. You'll do fine with the sleeve. I doubted it at first, but it does the job of portion control. I love it.

[crosspecans]

forgive yourself. wow you look wonderful. lol salty tooth. ive lost wt. my son has lost wt. but hubby has gained. i find if i brush my teeth early in the evening it helps cuz food doesnt taste as good after minty fresh mouthwash. so i skip the snack. waves~~~

[WeightNoLonger]

My husband is gaining too, cuz I keep giving him the food I don't eat. :)

[cah237]
