  1. Your feeling are normal! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! Good Luck!
  2. Good Luck! Don't forget to post your surgery date!
  3. Good Luck to you! It will be here before you know it! Make sure to get your liquid stuff in before surgery!
  4. Good Morning Y'all! I don't think it will ever stop raining here! I am totally sick of rain. Yesterday it rained so hard that my fish pond over flowed and one of my fish swam out and stuck on the ledge and of course was dead by the time I found it. It was one of my prettiest ones too! This is supposed to continue until at least Tuesday. We are the second highest now for the most rain since 1928 (?) I think that was the date. They are closing some of the parks for the 4th because they are flooded. Cindy - I like your new avatar! Eileen - It's great to see you here on a weekday. How is the new job going? Do you like it better than the old one? Kat - That is too funny! Usually when it gets that way we just empty it out and start over. We haven't been able to do anything with it yet, too much rain. It's pouring right now! We have mosquito problems here really bad with all the rain. I was out last weekend for just a while and I am covered with bites and I sprayed too. Good luck with your party! Dianne - Good luck with the tests today! Sherry - Hope they can find out what's causing all your problems. I know it's not a fun thing to go through. Mandy - Hope you are feeling better. Beanie - Girl, what is going on? Come and post and let us know you are alright! You are probably shopping at Ikea! Well, got to run, catch you all later!
  5. Good Morning Y'all! Well, the rain finally got us really good, the pool has flooded and is now full of mud again. There is nothing nice about looking outside and seeing a pool that looks like a dirty pond. I guess our work is cut out for us this weekend. I am really sick of rain. Kat it is so green and pretty here, but I am so ready for sunshine. You sound like you have your work cut out for you. Just put your foot down from now and and tell them all it's their turn. The crype myrtle trees are all in bloom and it sure makes it pretty. Cindy your pictures are beautiful and you look so great! Your daughter does look alot like you! I love your shirts! Mandy I bet those pictures really make you want to leave on your trip today! Diane congrats on the new job! It sounds like it's right up your alley! Patty congrats on the w/l, you sound like you are so much happier. Hello to all of you gals that are mia, hope to see you all soon! Time for me to get some breakfast and then get dressed. Catch y'all later!
  6. Happy Bandiversary! You have done a great job with your band. Congrats to you! I have been at a standstill for a long time too, and I know it is because I am not as strict with myself as I was in the beginning. I think we tend to relax and forget about some things the longer we are banded. I know I eat some things that I totally gave up when I was first banded.
  7. Very well said! And remember, just because you can eat it, doesn't mean you should. I wouldn't take that chance if it were me!
  8. Our news this morning said he killed the family and then himself. It's so sad that when someone wants to take their life they have to take others with them.
  9. Cindy - Glad you had a great time! It sounds like fun! Dianne - Hope the blood clot doesn't cause too much pain/problmes for you. I have to hurry, I am in th middle of cooking supper! I have to run and catch it before it burns. I'll try to get back later.
  10. Good for you! I'm glad you made it!
  11. Welcome to bandland! Make sure you are sipping your water! If it continues, call your doctor and see if you can have protein drinks.
  12. Thanks for posting! While I didn't think it could hurt anything inside of us, it's always good to hear it from the experts!
  13. Welcome to bandland! Glad things went good for you!
  14. Karen - I am so happy that things went well for you! I imagine you are pretty sore right now! Just take it easy and get healed up! I have had you on my mind a lot, so I am glad you were able to let us know how things went. Please keep us posted on your progress!
  15. Welcome to LBT! Good Luck!
  16. Totally normal! Once the swelling goes down, everything will start to look better! Welcome to bandland!
  17. Congrats to you! I can hear the excitement in your thread! Good Luck!
  18. I still do it after all this time, but DH loves it because he gets to eat my leftovers. Sometimes I order a small order because I know I am not that hungry, but most times I just order regular and let him have the rest.
  19. Well, came here this morning to read and nothing new to read! I'm sending out the tigers, lions, bears, monkeys, and gorillas! Catch you all later, have a great Friday!
  20. I eat popcorn all the time. I don't have a problem with it. It's a pretty good snack especially for getting some fiber in.
  21. My doctor said 6-8 weeks, you don't want to take a chance of a germ getting into an open cut.
  22. Congrats to you! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!
  23. Congrats on your surgery date. We all go through lots of emotions before the surgery, you wouldn't be normal if you didn't. Keep yourself busy, go for walks, read all the threads on here, talk to a friend. Make sure you buy your supplies for your liquid diet after the surgery. Good Luck!
  24. Good Luck and don't forget to post and let us know how everything went!
  25. Welcome to bandland! I'm glad your surgery went pretty good!
