  1. I just came from an amusement park and I am happy to say.....yes we can. Over and over again if we want. Enjoy
  2. Thanks for the info. quote name='aroundthetown' timestamp='1311725829' post='1644863'] oh my the kettle bell can kick your behind. I use one at the gym for squats and for swinging back and forth between my legs to just parallel to my shoulders. It's pretty good. BUT I do have to say, my batwings are hanging on despite the kettle bell!
  3. I'm interested in getting one with a DVD. Any suggestions?
  4. A coworker purchased a 16 DVD set and a kettleball. I checked out the website and it looks awesome. I'm interested in purchasing a cheaper/starter bell and DVD. Anyone try it? What video do you recommend? I'm 2 months post op and am very worried about flabby skin, especially my bat wings on my arms. I'm hoping since you are always holding the bell, that it may help in tightening up the skin. please share your thoughts.
  5. I'm not getting enough protein each day. Looking for recommendations on favorite protein bars. Please share.
  6. Ahhhh, I love all the names as well. I need a creative name. Keep the names coming.
  7. I had my 3rd fill three days ago. My rules were liquids first day, mushies 2nd and regular 3rd day. I'm having the hardest time. My water even feels like it hangs there. Everytime I burp, something comes up. It just wont go and stay down. I talked to Dr. yesterday and was told to just stick with liquids. I'm hungry and tired of this. We leave for family vacation tomorrow and hope it gets better. I'm told there is swelling with fills. She only added 1/2cc so I am at 6cc/10cc. Ouch
  8. I can barely keep water down. I take a sip, fell I have to burp, and it comes right up! I'm hungry! This is ridiculous! I want to fast forward a couple days.
  9. I recently had my third fill. The first few days after I follow the liquids, mushies, etc rule. It is really hard to get liquids down the 2nd day still. Warm foods are easier than cold drinks. Is it true that your stomach swells after a fill? I was told that but find it hard to believe just half a cc could do that.
  10. You need an adjustment
  11. Every single time I take a drink, my throat makes a weird noise....loud noise. It isn't a burp really. I've had two people tell me it was like a clogged toilet. Haha
  12. These responses were very helpful to me because I'm at 5.5cc/10, hoping I get there soon. Just a side note, why are "spots" so hard to find (ex: sweet spot & G-spot) hahaha
