Thanks ladies!! Well, I said this was a possibility, no way I can be travelling at 8 months!! While a V Baby shower would be amazing, I wouldn't expect ya'll to cancel the relaxation trip lol. Just make sure you take LOTS of pics and draw a picture of me and put it in the corner with the guacamole and a pina colada!

Not much to tell at this point, and it's taboo for me to even tell you guys isn't it? I'm so overwhelmed, not sure what to do next.. mom is taking me to get books tomorrow and I'm calling my gyno.. I already have an unfill appt. in Sept, so I'll just wait till then.... It dawned on me around lunch time today that I was 3 days late, so ran to the store.. took it after work when everyone else had gone home. Russell is in shock (we didn't expect it so soon, obviously!).. then we hugged and kissed, and made a budget lol.. He also threw away all my smokes, said I quit smoking tomorrow. I didn't plan to, but he's being a real stickler about it. He said he is quitting too, he's going on chantix.. I don't think I can do that while pregnant.. so weird, I'm still in shock and scared.. and panicked, and excited.. ugh.

Oh my god.. I am pregnant. I am having a panic attack. I wanted it, but actually seeing it? I am freaking out..

The band restricts calories going in for the most part, if you are eating less than 1k calories & exercising.. if you didn't have the band.. how would you be losing quicker?

This has got to vary wildly for everyone... I am 214lb and 6'0 and I wear a size 12 bottom/14 top.. or 14 bottom/14 top.. depending on the store. My sister is 227lb and 5'10 and she wears a size 16 top and 18 bottom.

One more reminder.... 11 days left to sign up for the Secret Santa Exchange!!

Congratulations, and I got a kick out of all of your tests lol.

What a bummer, my doc's office is great and I never have problems getting in whenever I want.. this is first time I called where they said I had to 'wait' till a time to get in. Sept. 8, 3 weeks from now :thumbup:

Hey girls! Wow you guys posted a lot while I was gone! And just FYI my cell phone is the same as the old number, I just changed phones--- so all your lists are correct with my info! I did NOT win millions, this was actually the worst Tunica trip I've ever had. I normally hit something that lets me play for a while.. never hit ANYTHING. They did have a new table game though that lets you play a long time on a little amount of money called Pyramid Poker.. it's 3 games in one- Pai Gow, 3-Card and 5-Card Stud.. it's kind of like 3-5-7 if you ever played that table game. $100 lasted me 6 hours. I was the only one in our group that never hit anything huge on it, my parents & Russell got 3-of a kinds and straight flushes.. dad ended up winning $5k on the table, mom won about $1k and Russell won about $800. But I had a lot of fun! My band keeps getting tighter, so I am going to schedule an unfill. I can hardly eat anything anymore :thumbup: And I've been eating a lot of ice, and I hate ice.. if you remember I always order things without ice, now I actually eat it?! Mom said that's an iron deficiency thing.. so maybe I am becoming anemic from not being able to eat meat. Unfill please! I hate that drive, but I gotta suck it up and do it, I know the band is not working properly at the moment. 214lb.. yahooooo. Hope everyone has been taking care while I was gone!

Although I do luv vinegar and could easily drink it lol

As for juan I was telling u that but I realized u didn't want to hear it so I backed off Ok vs txt me! Lovies

Wow Tracy, you've lost quite a bit since our trip!! Looking fantastic, and Robby is too cute :biggrin:

I like keeping my husband uneducated with womenly things, so when I need an excuse for something I can blame it on a woman thing.. and he doesn't want to know more, so that's that! :Banane37:

I'm not pregnant, but I do the same thing. I haven't documented it, but I figured it has to do with how much I drink between "full" and "starving again".. I like to drink, so I assume I am washing it through quicker. Although I have been at the "starving again" stage, and burped up food I ate 12 or so hours before!

Welcome Sheri! -80 is fantastic! Don't be shy to post pics, we're one big happy family in here :Banane37:) I just got a blackberry curve, work wants me to be able to get e-mails when I'm not here.. yay? It's hella complicated, trying to figure it out right now.

OHHH TRACY!!! That looks friggin AWESOME!! I couldn't picture it, I meant to post earlier I need pics. I absolutely love it, it looks so chic!! Looks like you colored it too, it's blonde now?

Hey guys, this girl that lives nearby I have been chit chatting on the forum wants to join our group.. cause she said we're NICE! Mwhahaha.. Just thought I'd let you know, give her a nice welcome.. :biggrin2:

Think we're talkin about 2 different things.. the wand is a plug-into-the-wall massive vibrator.. doesn't spin.

Hah, PMS will do that. So will alcohol... and pain meds... I've posted & deleted many a times!

I have some weird dildos, never cared much for them. DH & I like bullets though, I have them stock piled.. they keep banning sex toys in Alabama, so I panic and buy about 20 since they are so cheap... The little silver ones, great during sex. Oh and in case anyone ever wondered, we have a hitachi magic wand too.. it's WAY too much. It's painful more than anything, so I wouldn't waste the $50 on them.

I wanna know now.....

Genetics also play a role in this, look at the women in your family for an idea. My mom was a size 0 when she was younger and always had a full C cup. I had a 46 DD when I was banded, I am now in a 38D..

I don't watch Oprah.. how'd it go?

My mom's butt tattoo lol -

Hey V's! Pam, I read that somewhere (someone on LBT posted it somewhere at somepoint?!) and I reflected on it, and I don't feel like it applies to me. Or if it does I am in complete denial. I sabotage myself all the time, and I can't help it.. especially when I'm doing good. But I would friggin LOVE to be at goal weight. I just want to eat too.. I feel like my issue is, I just love food. But maybe on some level I am hiding feelings, who knows.. but I'm way off from figuring that out because as far as I know I just like to eat. Book it Judy, make it official!!! :whatchutalkingabout Well, we had a problem with our rooms in Tunica this weekend, they are booked on suites (and we get suites so my sister can hang out). So it became this big drama, my dad goes "Let me throw out a radical suggestion.. lets just go to Vegas for the weekend!" Now, as much as I love Vegas, all I hear is "FLY! CRASH AND BURN!" luckily, mom talked him out of it. We're still rethinking Tunica, or we'll go next weekend. They're having some promotional weekend this one and it's going to be hella crowded. Oh did I mention I just got back from taking my mom to get..a TATTOO!? She is so anti-tattoos, but for their 30th anniversary (next week) she decided to do it.. or mention it anyway.. then me and sister jumped on her, practically tied her up and took her. She got an Auburn (football) colored tank on her BUTT, that has Wall-E eyes. I'll post a pic later.. she actually almost fainted halfway through, I was a little surprised.. I heard about that, but never saw it happen. My dad's nickname is Tank. The tattooist said "You're the first woman I've ever put a tank on their ass" lol. Piehole report: Late Lunch- 4 french fries from Red Robin, 1 bite of a burger that got stuck and came up, 1/2 of an orange dream smoothie (doh) Late Dinner: Tilapia & shrimp...covered in an Alfredo sauce that I didn't like, so I tried to scrape off as much as I could Right now- My homemade high-cal hot chocolate (grr). I need to go get the mix. I do make it with skim milk, so maybe that helps a little? Good news? Still 215lb!
