  1. Congratulation queen enjoy the It may last a long time... work it, feel your food, take time to eat your meals and enjoy every bite. I use to say the only time I felt full was on Thanksgiving. With the band it happens almost every day.

  3. Congratulations Zoe Dr. Rumbaut is an excellent choice. You must be getting very excited. Good luck to you, my thoughts are with you.
  4. All this Bra Talk and they opened a Lane Bryant in Gilroy. So off I went last Friday cause I needed bras anyway. I tell the attendant I was looking for the Flaunt and they only had about 10 left. She sizes me and just like Kelly I'm still in the 38DD, perfectly and WOW what cleavage! I opt for the all Cotton style just like the Flaunt. Bought 2, the 2nd one was 1/2 off. Thanks Donali I love my Bras and Congratulations again, you are beautiful!
  5. So Happy for you Penni! Shopping is now fun and not a chore! Yesterday we were driving home from Disneyland and we decided to stop for lunch on Sunset Blvd. Then kept driving through Beverly Hills and caught the 405 north. Low and behold I see Van Nuys and rolled down the window and yelled "Hey Penni" Did you hear me?? LOL. Billy looks at me strange as I explain that you live there...So you can say I think about you guys all the time.

Preband Now weight 244 180 size 18/20 12/14 Exercise, Does chasing kids count? I do walk allot and occasionally ride the lifecycle. Pics soon to come, I'll be on Vacation for a while . Congratulation to the August babies
  19. It's true.....A little boom-boom takes my headaches away. Lisa, your life is so colorful. Your always painting pictures in my head.
  20. Alexandra, It is so nice to have your families support and especially a father figure. I miss my parents very much, but more so my sister Alex, who died of breast cancer at the age of 36 (I was 28). I believe she would have been proud of my decision to be banded as well as my progress. Your pics of you and your family are awesome!! I'm proud of you too. This board is my extended family.
  21. You Know Darcy, Your pancreas is located in the middle right above the belly bottom and I have heard of gallbladder attaches in the same area. I believe they share the same ducts to the liver. You should see a doctor. I have to agree with Lisa.
  22. Lisa, The Guys I work with are nuts over your 2005 Harley Davidson Dyna Wide Glide. Apparently Chris picked out one hell of a bike. Too bad it has to cost so much.... You do look hot!
  23. I think this is a congratulation.?? Don't let it happen again. Ya right. I like what Shelly Wrote...If I could find it to quote...something like=I don't eat certain things cause I'm afraid of a BP. My first major BP was garlic noodles with lots of parmesan. Coughed up a perfect golf ball. I don't do pasta or bread much. Yes, it hurts.
  24. Amen! People who have never been there, don't know what it's all about.
