  1. For me, three is close, I may need just a little more. :whoo: <------ best icon ever, by the way.
  2. That's hilarious. wow.
  3. If it is making your stomach ache at all, I would wait another couple of days. Letting it heal properly is very key. Just make the transition VERY gradual.
  4. Ask away. This site saved my butt when I first started the journey and I'll tell you that I've met some of the coolest people I've ever met on this sight.
  5. Vitamin P, huh? lol. You know, sometimes I'm better than others, but I've been known on a few occasions to let my genitalia take over my brain. lol Oh, and green, I would argue that. I know some women that are worse than I am. hahahaha.
  6. I have no problems with pills, ever.
  7. It's relative, I'm sure. Once they get the right fill, they'll be better off.
  8. 1500 calories is a lot compared to what we are supposed to be eating. 700-1000 is right around where we are supposed to be. Stella, don't take this the wrong way, but after reading your post I get the feeling like you think that this band is a "miracle pill". If so, you are sadly mistaken. This is ONLY A TOOL to help. You can't be eating pizza, burgers and the like, especially in that quantity, if you want to lose weight. I think that you need to sit down with yourself and rethink your plan here. I do agree that your physician's bedside manner is terrible and I also agree that two out of seven cc's is not enough, but you HAVE TO change your eating habits. You will continue at the same weight or even gain some if you're not careful. Plus, when you do get a good fill, you are going to stretch the pouch. PLEASE, PLEASE do this right! You will be so much happier in the end if you do!
  9. Don't listen to what other people say. They have no idea what you are going through. Just to let you know, this was the best decision I have ever made. I don't regret it for one second. It is worth EVERY penny and every little pain in the ass getting here. Good luck! :whoo:
  10. I was there for a while, buddy. Don't worry about it. The BEST thing you can do is just walk around and stay as active as you can handle. The more you are up and walking around, the sooner it will go away.
  11. I wouldn't worry too much about it. Just load up on vitamins and pray for the best. I hope you feel better, though... :car:
  12. Maybe I should rethink this whole pre-med thing if I can't remember something simple like that. Yeesh. *falls off of the bed laughing*
  13. Well, I don't want to get your hopes up and say that we're dating, but I am talking to a wonderful girl in Austin named Melissa. You may know her as missy0224. She's very sweet. The only problem is distance, though. Only time will tell the future, though. There, now I spoiled it. No mystery. lol.
  14. All I heard from Sally was "Blah blah blah, I'm a complete waste of space, blah blah blah". I would LOVE to put a billboard in Beverly Hills addressing celebrities saying, "Attention celebrities: Every time you have a thought that you think is worth saying, please just do everyone a favor and let it go. No one is taking you seriously. Until further notice, you are as of much us as a sack of rocks sitting in the middle of the freeway. Thanks."
  15. Are you seriously asking ME what I hate? WOW! I have a list a mile long...the very least of which being Britney. Why can't she just OD already? It's about that time, isn't it? Let's see, there's the word "fantastic". If I hear that word one more time, I'm probably going to shove an icepick through my ears. OH OH OH and shortening words like "whatev"...I mean ok, I realize that using your entire brain for something useful when you need to reserve at least 15% of it for shopping and asking daddy for money to put gas in your new Porsche is a lot to ask, but please just try to preserve the english language while you're at it. I'll add more as I remember...
  16. No, there's no carbonation. I can drink soda and beer, though, so it wouldn't bother me either way. :-
  17. <3 Bananas MMMMMM. sugar free banana milkshake...
  18. Maybe I had a good doctor or maybe it's just because I'm young, but I had it pretty easy. I was almost normal again by day 3. Weird, huh? Stick to the plan!!!!! You're going to do awesome!!!!
  19. In light of a recent experience, I was compelled to ask if either you or someone you know has found a significant other while on LBT?
  20. I'm really glad for you for getting up on your feet and taking control! Keep your head in the right place and you're going to do great.
  21. Just so everyone knows, <3 WABB. lol.
  22. I feel the overwhelming urge to get out of Tucson and go up to phoenix for Saturday. If you're free, post up!
  23. My friends say they notice, but my coworkers don't.
  24. Let me make this decision for you: Dump the chump.
