YEAH!
If I could do a catwheel without breaking a hip (I used to be able to do them) I would!
I lost the last of the regained weight and am back to where I was.
18 pounds down!
Revisiting the emotions that come along with gaining weight I must remember that it is NOT a delcaration of failure. It DOES not define me.
It does get me down though. You too?
I have been trying to be "good" ever since the scale started inching in the wrong direction.
With every "pick myself up" moment, I slipped a little further.
We are talking about less than 4 pounds here but it came off so easily I felt deserving of the next 18 coming off without more effort.
FORM does make this easier.
The edge is taken off of my hunger.
Constantly thinking about what to eat next is not happening.
When you are hungry you are always thinking baout what is next.
The danger, for me, about eating when I still feel the hunger is overeating.
With FORM, you will not overeat at that meal sitting.
Vacation is over next week.
I am renewed in my committment.
Sure feels nice!

Halloween 2008 Today's FORM experience
Well, Ran out of FIXX again. I have an order coming but I am out.
I've been "doing" the protein shake thing on the mornings I work. It's just easier.
I don't taste the protein in the FIXX meal replacement shake like I do with other protein shakes.
Breakfast:
1 packet of Quaker weight control oatmeal
1 slice of buttered toast
mid morning snack:
large Pear
~took 1 FORM capsule
Lunch:
1c tomato soup
1/2 grilled cheese sandwich
DONE FULL
~ took 1 FORM capsule
Dinner:
1/4 c. Rice Pilaf
6 oz Prime Rib
3 Broccoli florets
DONE FULL
Later in the night I did have 2 snack sized Snickers bars.

My dear friend
My friend looked over my blog and scolded me about me not eating enough calories!
Yes, I am eating less calories but no, I am not in danger of wasting away.
I am not posting my weight here, perhaps in the future, but not now. I am in need of a loss of about 50-60 pounds.
You can do all of the imaginary math in your head to suit your needs.
I will be at the higher end of a healthy weight/BMI when I am at goal.
I am eating lean red meats, veggies and fruits, whole grains. I am also eating full fats (healthy). I hold fast to the idea that eliminating any particular food group is not only unhealthy for the body, but plays a mind game with your head.
I find, FOR ME, that if I eat simpler carbs I become bloated. Mostly in the form of breads. I will indulge in the heel of a good Italian bread if I am having lasagna.
I will have the fluffy, not so good for you white bread, if I have a PB&J (haven't had one in a long time).
I've had steak at several dinners, Tiramisu as a dessert or two, and BUTTER on my french toast.
I cannot stomach (literally, they send me to the bathroom) many of the artificial chemicals placed into foods to make them either low fat or low carb.
I do have equal still in my Iced tea but I am weaning myself off of it slowly.
People sip my tea and it is too unsweetened for them so I must be getting close.
I am eating about 1,000 to 1400 calories a day.
I drink lots of water and Iced tea.
I am not hungry.
Before September 23rd I was eating more AND was HUNGRY.
The difference? Yes, you know the difference. My use of FORM before two meals during the day is the only difference (and the FIXX shake instead of my old protein shakes).
My breakfast if I am working must be had quickly or on the road. I am using FIXX shakes to get me out of the door in the morning. The days I work (in NY & NJ)I have a long commute. I have no time for a leisurely breakfast.
Before using FIXX I was drinking other protein shakes.
On the weekends and the days I do not work I have real breakfasts.
We enjoy eggs(they really are good for you), French toast and a protein.
My menus may be repetitive because I am a lousy cook.
If we find something I can whip up and both of us like it, we include it.
We have beef delivered. It is triple trimmed and actually is certified heart healthy.
It's delicious.
I'm Italian so pasta and lasagnas are easy for me to make.
I always was a fruit and salad lover so either one is nearly always available in the 'fridge.
So, my dear friend. I am eating enough. I am eating enough to not be groggy mid day. I am eating enough to exercise every day. I am eating enough to help save lives. I am eating enough.

Hey I wonder if the company saw my video before they created their FITNESS PACK? Lol
I was on vacation when I first tried FORM and FIXX. I didn't have my blender handy. I did have my shaker cup form Tupperware!!
I still giggle when I see the video and hear the ice cubes...
I still enjoy a FIXX shake nearly every morning.

Today on FORM
Todays food and FORM experience:
Breakfast:
1 slice of frenchtoast (texas toast thickness)
1/4 pat butter, 1tbs syrup.
The syrup is normal Maple syrup, not sugarfree. The sugarfree syrups give me stomach upset.
1c fruit salad (strawberries, bluberries and banana)
Took 1 FORM capsule at 11a.m.
I made a turkey sandwich on french bread s&p, light mayo, tomato, garlic hummus
I ate half of it and one bite of the other half.
NOT HUNGRY and in fact, FULL! YES, almost Thanksgiving full. That's my barometer. I don't want to get Thanksgiving full because that is uncomfortable for me. When I took 2 FORM capsules I was uncomfortably full. It is ONE FORM capsule for me that works.
At 5, 5:30 I took 1 FORM capsule we got home and I put a Digiorno pizza in the oven.
We cut the pie into four so the slices were big.
ONE slice, that's it....yep, FULL again.
Ooops, just added -
We had tomato and mozzarella "salad" with italian spice and olive oil drizzled on it.
I did have a slice of mozz and 2 slices of tomato.
YUM!

Comments from Youtube
I recieved a rather blunt and sarcastic comment on one of my videos on Youtube about FORM. The video and the comments can be seen here.
The YT poster:
"your stomach has acids, how will this product be effected when the two mix.??. the stomach is not a empty hole in the body ..lol "
My replies which I had to break up:
My answer will take up three comment boxes, sorry.
Thanks for the comment.
Yes the stomach has a solution of (gastric acid) hydrochloric acid in water.
The contents are acidified to a PH of 1-2 (normally).
The stomachs' acid plays a role in preventing infections from micro-organisms by barrier action.
Gastric acid starts the break down of proteins to ready it for digestion.
The acid, when leaving the stomach is neutralized by sodium bicarb.
formthefuture (4 hours ago) Show Hide Marked as spam Reply | Remove The gastric juices - hydrochloric acid does not break down the stomach lining - - aside from those with ulcers.
You'll notice that many foods pass virtually unchanged. CORN. PEANUTS.
The FORM has been eliminated (for me) undistinguishable form the normal BM.
I can only report what I FEEL and that is FULLNESS.
The fullness lasted several hours and was enough to not WANT to eat, or eat more.
"no the stomach is not an open "hole" in your body, the cardiac and pyloric sphincters effectively "close it off" while it is working.
I have a video of the FORM product still being semi solid (as it is still today) in the glass I used for my first demo. I stated in that video that no, FORM wont stat in your stomach for four days (at that time) because the stomachs acid, peristalsis and churning will break it down.
My experience? I have had a lasting feeling of fullness for 4 hours"
As long as there is not profanity or meanness in a comment, I have no problem keeping them posted.
It is wise to NOT get into a verbal spat on the internet.
State your facts clearly and without emotion and always use respect.

Tonight's FORM experience
I intended on using one FORM capsule before lunch and 2 FORM capsules before dinner.
NOT NEEDED!
I had the one FORM capsule before lunch, was only able to eat half my lunch.
I only took 1 FORM capsule before dinner.
I made my three bean chili for dinner.
We sat down for dinner.
I took a cereal bowl instead of the larger chili bowl. I knew I wasn't that hungry.
I did put some sharp cheddar on top. It was as good as always but I couldn't finish.
I ate about 3/4 of my bowl.
This product is performing exactly as advertised for me.

Are you inFORMed? I am.
I took the FORM capsule today!
It's 3:43 p.m.. I took the FORM capsule at around 11:30.
I ate half of a banana and two bites of a chicken sandwich.
I was NOT hungry. I was NOT looking to eat more food.
I wasn't uncomfortably full but I felt like I ate a while meal.
(I only took one FORM capsule)
I will take another FORM capsule tonight around 6p.m.. We are eating at 6:30.
I will try the FIXX shake tomorrow morning without taking a FORM capsule beforehand.
I intend on taking one FORM capsule before lunch tomorrow.
I also am going to try TWO- FORM capsules before dinner tomorrow night to seeif it has an even greater filling effect.
I don't have a scale here. I will weigh next Tuesday.
I will then be weighing every morning, posting wither every day or once a week.
I should have ordered more.....I have gone thru 8 FORM capsules already doing demos for people.
I didn't take video of me opening the FORM capsule for my own demo but I do have video of the glass with the FORM "globule" still intact an hour later.
I'll take video of the glass in another hour which would be 5-6 hours.

FORM & FIXX
SO very excited for the FORM products to come.
I ordered them and will, or should recieve them by the end of the week!!
I am so sick of trying everything and anything out there to lose weight and get back to a healthy me!
I was actually thinking about getting a Lapband.
I just happened to see this product.
I've been looking into FORM and FIBE and FIXX, and even the other Forever Green products for about a month now.
They look very promising.
I can't wait to try them.
