Yeah I am the one she always teases since she has known me since I was little. She managed find me on here too. She thinks she is so sneaky sneaky :heh: Hi Terry I know you are reading this! You might as well log in and say hi to everyone here!

Freeetobe- On my most recent fill he had to stick me about 4 times to get the port. The first two fills were a breeze, but the last one not so much.

Zannie if you are walking take a bottle of Water with you and don't finish your walk until you drink it all. I find that helps me alot in getting my water in. Welcome everyone who just joined up! Feel free to jump in and get movin and drinkin!

No I did not have a pump!!! I did ask for ite very time I wanted to sleep though.

Well my little party day did not do as much damage as I had feared. I still managed to lose a pound since Saturday.

Ahhh well if you remember the morphine fiend who just had surgery in Feb... yeah that was me lol.

Good luck all you April Bandsters!!!!!!!!!! You will do great!

Yes Sue I have been to the last 3 months meetings so you have probably seen me there.

Great job everyone!!!!!!!!!!!! I am not too sure what tomorrow is going to look like for me. My friends and I are going downtown for the Tiger's opening day. Should be a big party, lots of fun, probably not so good on the diet though.

Sure anyone is welcome to join!

Congrats Suzanne!!! I still have to get the rest of my exercise in but my water is almost done. I am sure when I hope on the treadmill in a little while I will go above my water demands.

All right today is the day. Happy April everyone!!!!

Thanks for the info WASaBubblebutt! I am striving to be a future former bubble butt!

My goal is to be able to ride my bike for a 12 mile stretch without wanting to die and then do it again 8 hours later. Why 12 miles? That's how far it is to work and in the summer I want to start biking it.

Good for you Julie!

Had to do an early wiegh in since I will not be around the scale for a few days. I am down two more! Woohoo!

Help me decide!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats! Just stay relaxed and follow the doctors orders.

Sue you probably do need a fill. I have actually gotten three already since my surgery on 2/6. Dr. Bacal will probably only give you a small fill to start with. My first one was only .75cc and the band absorbed most of it. I have a bit more restriction now but I still think I could use another fill.

Okay teacher you've got it! The Feb Bandsters 20 and 20 Challenge officially starts Sunday April 1st (no foolin)

I feel your pain honey! I have a 6 year old kindergartener who is also in dance and softball and a 3 year old and I work 46 hours a week. I usually get up at 4:45 in the morning to get my exercising in. The first few times it was relly rough but once you get used to it it is not so bad.

Okay I really like how Boo has set up the challenge for her group so I really hope she does not mind me kinda stealing the set up. Instead of a certain number of days per week exercising lets shoot for 20 days of movement, 30 minutes per day. The 30 minutes does not have to be consecutive, it can be broken up into two 15 minutes sessions or even three 10 minutes sessions since some of us might be very new to exercise and need it! We can do it!!!!!! So let's shoot for 20!

Oh and I am also up for a water challenge too!

Actually your group really inspires me. So many of you have been so very sucessful and I hope to be where you guys are a year from now!

Okay well since most everyone is interested in exercise let's go with that. How does thirty minutes a day sound? How many days per week do you guys want to shoot for? Personally I want to go with 5 but I do not want to stress anybody out with too much! Let's get some votes in on how long and how many days per week. I figure the exercising can be anything you feel comfortable with whther it be swimming, biking, walking, Curves, whatever.
