LOL, I noticed your hair & glassas too! Must have been in the late 80's cause I had the same big hair do and big framed glasses back then myself..... those were the days! ok, here's Mike and the kids on a recent fishing trip! this one is of "Bee Bee" (Philip)

Kathy, #124... is that a coors youre holdin?

Ali, both places (only if you want to)

Diane, I live in SW Louisiana, and Spiegel did mine too ACTUALLY - my goal weight is 150, but since Id never thought Id see that number, I changed it to 170... another -10 and I may change it back to 150. Who knows? Are you doing ok? did you have your surgery in Nederland or Houston?

Hi Diane and Welcome! youre fom SE Texas? Who did your surgery?

Welcome to LBT and to Bandland! WOW! -11 pounds in 5 days? thats great!

Estela, you have 3 kids right? beautiful kids! I LOVE the baton, I hope Anne Marie will want to take baton lessons one day. Is the younger daughter in her dance recital outfit too? Fireman, porclndoll, Terri, thanks you so much for posting some pics! Jenna, OMG! Your mother!!!! Thats unbelievable. SOOO glad you posted her after shots.

-65 in 11 months Im happy!

Nancy, Sounds to me like its reflux. And yes, the bed elevation does help. But the best "treatment" is not eating after a certain time. I very seldom eat after 7:30ish, and if I stick to this rule (which I usually do), I will not have the nighttime reflux. Alot of times your surgeon will request for you to have a slight unfill to relieve the reflux. Good luck.

You know, I NEVER thought about grill cheese sounding like girl cheese. Thats cute! Yall are making me laugh... great job everyone!

and she used that word? wow... im glad shes on your good side! LOL :nervous Congrat's on the NSV!

I am REALLLLLLY late getting on this thread. And I wanted to give comments on so many of them. Everyone has such cutie pies! Leatha, you are right! Meme has been beautiful since day one! Penni, Alicia is another you! I cant believe how much you two look alike. Pretty girl! Cute kids too! Kimberlily, Your boy looking like your father touched me. God IS great, isnt He? Thats so very special. Jenna, my 2 boys have baby blues - wouldnt trade them for nothing! What a precious boy you have. Sally, I had to laugh at those scratches on her face. She is a beautiful child! Kathy, my all time FAVORITE - you in the hosp. bed after delivery. Why do our hubbys do that to us? #17 is such a great pic.!!! I could just kiss the skin off em!

Angie and anyone else... ANYONE is welcome to join, no matter where you are on your journey. For me, its easier to aim for a goal, so I recommend -10 pounds in 10 weeks. Others are interested in more or less weight loss. Whatever goal you feel comfortable attaining is fine with us. Im copying and pasting from the other challenge... LaMadam actually strated the original one. Everyone was complaining about not losing any weight. So the challenge was started to show us that we ARE losing, we just cant see it on a daily weigh in, but we CAN see it on a weekly or bi-monthly weigh in. Oh, and Jonathan has a web site that he adds our names, starting weight, current weight and goal weight. Seems easier to keep track of! So, on Monday it starts!!!!

Im wondering if anyone reads my post??? LOL #22 Could a moderator please lock this one so no confusion will happen? or should we just delete the whole thing?

Hey Brother! Good to see you back in business. You know Im in on this! Last I heard, Penni recommended us having before pics in bathing suits. I think she's lost her mind.

Hey guys! We are going to move everything over to Jonathan's weightloss thread. Could a moderator please lock this one so no confusion will happen?

Tanya, look at that! Yall in a limo????? woo hoo! Great pic! What was the celebration?

LMBO..... Princess!!!!! OMG!!!! thats right up there with Betty's husbands guts! I am cracking up over here! Jamie, Im wondering if "moppy" is a good smell... or a bad one! LOL..thats too cute! Crystal, LaMadam, Rae, Betty, Princess.... I only HOPE that when my kids grow up, I can remember some of the laughable (belly hurting) things my kids have said. Those are priceless moments/memories. Lisa, I agree. actions speak louder then words!!! Especially when its from a child! Very touching.

Estela, great pics of you and hubby! Jenna, that IS a great pic! and look at that blonde hair! Youre a hottie!

Thats right Seppi, just try not to swallow it! I remember several months ago when someone on here accidentally swallowed her gum - she was terrified! Someone told her to eat some peaut butter (it helps dissolve gum) - before long she felt it pass!

Nicole, at that time of the day - it must have been hotter then HELL! Im impressed, cause most docs never want to break a sweat.

Hi Phyllis! On Monday's, just post your current weight. LaMadam actually strated the original one. Everyone was complaining about not losing any weight. So the challenge was started to show us that we ARE losing, we just cant see it on a daily weigh in, but we CAN see it on a weekly or bi-monthly weigh in. Oh, and Jonathan has a web site that he adds our names, starting weight, current weight and goal weight. Seems easier to keep track of!

awe Kelly girl, thanks!!! You cant really see it in the picture, but yesterday I had some blonde streaks added to my hair. I need to get a close up to show you! Jenna, those pictures are real life at my house. LOL Btw, since you are NOW a size 14, we need current pics! Great pic phyllis! Glad you joined in on the picture fun!

Crystal, Why -in the world- are you so camera shy???? You are beautiful! <<insert DeLarla's Woof here>>

Penni, those ARE beautiful. About the second one... are you Indian decent?
