Went to see the doc yesterday and he put another cc in my band for a total of 12 in a 14cc band. He says that is it and it is up to me to eat properly and lose weight if the fill doesn't help. So this AM I am thinking I might be real tight now and I'm a little worried my meds won't go down since it has been less than 24 hours since my fill. Well, I worried for nothing as they slid right down. Geez if this doesn't get me in the green zone I guess I am SOL. I was in the zone once before but as I lost weight I fell back out of it.

It is only a tool, only a tool.............. (chanting)

Any of you vets never find, and stay, in the green zone?

Don't listen to the BS that you can only lose a certain amount of weight. How much you lose, or don't lose, is 100% up to YOU.

This is what I believe as well.

Hi mony! Good to hear from a long term successful bandster.

Lady that is quite an accomplishment!

For your viewing pleasure.......

Wow! You are really kicking it!

There are more uninsured people now than before obamacare. What does that tell you?

Thank you .....

Liar In Chief

Things are actually worse now. More than 5 million policies have been canceled already. How many people is that? 10 million, more even? They project another 100 million or so may be canceled next year. Meanwhile many peoples cost are going up. And of course the web site doesn't work nor is it secure. So far obamacare has been a 100 percent disaster.

The jerk couldn't tell you this face to face. He was a coward to tell you how he felt in an email. He didn't care about how you feel. Not all men are like this! I would email him a Dear John letter and move on to better things. You do deserve it!

You need to keep up. The jerk was a female.

BTW: your insurance company may claim they dropped the policy because of The ACA but that just means the plan didn't meet minimum standards and rather than fix the plan they're ditching it. It's like blaming a speed limit for getting caught driving too fast.

Minimum standards like requiring men to get maternity care coverage.................

Yes otherwise women would all have to pay more insurance even though they don't really get pregnant by themselves. In order for insurance to work we all have to share the risks even when we may personally be immune to them.

That is socialism in a nutshell.

Who do you think is paying for these peoples care today? Asking THEM to pay for their own insurance policy isn't socialism.

Of course it is. The only difference is now it will be mandated by government or you will get punished.

Really doesn't matter though because obummercare is a disaster already and will likely be repealed eventually.

He is just looking for an excuse to dump you. Nine pounds is nothing on a big person. Go ahead and break up with him. You will be doing him and yourself a favor.

Sorry you have to deal with this Donna. I know you have been through a lot but you have proven how strong you are. I will pray for you!

This afternoon will be the third and last day of family feasting. I ate very little yesterday so I might hit some of those sausage balls today. I will be looking for a gun show this AM while the rest of the family goes to the flea market to get a good deal on some fleas.

You old gals need to get yourself one of these

Okay you got me with the title also and I was wondering why you are posting it in this forum.

It makes me so happy to see you and others doing well!

Hell, 25 pounds is a lot better than I did the last six months!! You are doing wonderful!!

I was so busy visiting and monitoring dogs I was trying to take a bite and actually forgot to chew thoroughly so a piece of chicken got me. Luckily it passed on it's own but it was close to a PB and I was very uncomfortable for a few minutes there.

C'mon, tell the truth....

I got hung up on a piece of chicken myself. First time in a while.

I told my parents because they needed to give me a ride. I told no one else. But my parents told many dozens of people.....

Some good advice on here so no need for me to repeat it.

Like Steph says, track your calories if your not already. I quit tracking them and my weight loss went to hell. I also have to make myself walk and use my Bowflex. It sounds like you are doing a lot of things right so I understand your discouragement. Just don't give up!

I feel a lot better physically but only a little better mentally. I am still pretty effin big so it does "weigh" on me still.

I have eaten pizza with no problems at all. But I decided it is not in my best interest to eat all of that dough as it kills my blood sugar.
