  1. 208 right now, im getting close!!
  2. my doctor said im not even supposed to lose until after teh mushies are done because you cant really choose low cal foods too easily. just hang in there!
  3. Im a half a pound away from the half way so i know how exciting it is! congrats!
  4. Im in MI and we recieved about 10inches and i shoveled it, and i also excersize extensivly but ive never had port pain (sorry about the spelling)
  5. GETTING SO CLOSE!!! and on top of that im .5lbs from being half way done!
  6. ill cross my fingers for us!
  7. thanks hun, and CONGRATS to you, 103 lbs? AMAZING!
  8. i live 2.5 hours from my doctor and he said that wouldnt happen to that extreme because they always make us drink a lot before we leave to make sure it stays. but my surgen said my local hospital could do it if i really needed them to
  9. ive gotten new shirts, pants i have a stash of from the past 7 years or so, so Im set from size 24 to size 12 basically. i am currently in 18 and i can fit into my 16!!!! (its tight though!)
  10. thankfully my grandfather is a jewler so he is going to fix them when i am done with the weight loss
  11. im at 213.5! and i need a fill really badly
  12. i have, but they told me it was because ofthe fact i wasnt getting enough nutrients during the day. and my hairs so thick, ive lost a LOT but you cant even tell
  13. Congrats on everything! your daughter is so cute!
  14. thank, i needed a little confidence boost
  15. alright so the last time i posted on this thread i still had 30 or so lbs to lost before onederland, now i only have 16.5!!! ireally want to lose it before the first of the year, but im not sure if i can.
  16. yea, i reweigh myself too. even when i lose a lot i do. i guess we just arent used to seeing the numbers go down, and once they are, you dont want them to stop :-)
  17. yea, i only eat about 800 cals
  18. my doctors told me that i can eat anything, but not a lot and not often. I am at a clinic of all bandsters under 18, so they figure the second they say "YOU CANNOT HAVE THIS", what ever it is you crave like mad. but personally, my no no is fast food, i will NOT eat it
  19. girl i know how you feel, but look at your little ticker in your signature... down 11lbs already! i remember how happy iwas to see my little fish swimming along! soon that day will be long gone!
  20. its ALRIGHT. just dont make everyday after thanksgiving a repeat! we all have our setbacks, just remember it on christmas when you want the second piece of pie...
  21. BREAD BREAD BREAD. oh my goodness do i have to be careful with that. and meat, i just got venison stuck not 10 minutes ago. and i also agree with julie, i get scrambled eggs stuck too and dont drink ontop of something stuck, it just makes it worse
  22. ice cream is so hard to pass up. i know exactly how you feel. i dont keep any in the house,a nd i seem to be able to not buy any at the store just because i feel like everyone is starring. I dont get it anywhere else because i dont eat fastfood at all (except blimpie, subway and soup from schlozkeys (sp??? lol)) we really have all been in the same place, you can get through this, just dont let ice cream mean that much to you. and if you need it, only have ONE serving, i know its only like a half a cup but you can do it!
  23. Thanksgiving was great! i so stuck to my diet, and i am so proud of myself!!! i got a smaller plate than everyone so i wouldnt be piling the stuff on and had a piece of pie for dessert (not pie, cake, Cookies ect as usual) how did everyone else do?
  24. alright hun, im 17, i was banded when i was 16, and yes, you can be banded. i live in michigan but i was banded in ill. chicago to be exact. its called New Hope. this is the address University of Illinois Medical Center:New Hope the webpage doesnt say much, but talk to amy, (shes my nurse, and i love her) if you have myspace... MySpace.com - Amy - 41 - Female - Western 'Burbs of Chicago, Illinois - www.myspace.com/amyphipps and if you want, you can look me up, i am totally open to all questions.
