awwwww soooo cute!

SEX--nice conversation actually-but if there are drawings of the "upside down thingy"- I would be greatly interested in viewing them! I am a visual person and need education with pictures---teeeheee (not meaning to sound PERVISH!)

Wow A Party!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love "em

where in MI are you? Shelby Twp here! and hang with those other two happy souls---Greg and Nancy!

whoooo hoooo! YOU GO!

ditto here lost weight fast the firs 2 weeks now stagnent and well yesterday gained 2 lbs-- what's uppie with that-don't feel its working- drinking plenty of h2o-peing all the time- and well getting frustrated-- lets just both agree to hang in there and wait this stagnent time out!

Hey Vic- don;t feel bad my loss is slow too since i started (pre liq 10-12/surg 10-26)- no fill yet but the scale is stuck 4 weeks out-22 lbs- what's uppie with that! and i am not really eating much at all- not sure what is not working- damn-trying to drink more water- think i need to start walking now- but it's so cold here in MI-

Get Out The Gold Card!

Babs-- i thought the atkins thingy was too tough on your liver to do with banding- is it working for you huh good---sounds like a plan but my band is new dr said steak is a no no for a couple of weeks yet- keep us posted on your progress-- YOU CAN DO IT!

Until you deal with live with GRACE--it will stay in your FACE-- i know this sound silly but start saying THANK YOU for the lesons that you have learned and let go of the "anger" you still hold on these issues-you will be surprised how live will change whey you change your pesception of life---the hardest thing is coming from a place of thankfulness when things are less than wonderful-i wish you peace!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ok i watched Rosanne Barr on tv today- and she had the ryun- y bypass surgery a few years back- as did Carnie Phillips, and both look like they have gained lots of weight back---anyone had one of these bands, say at least 5 years, and how is it still performing for you -have you maintained your weight loss or leveled off and some point? Anyone GAINED lots of weight back-- come on cough it up there can not only be sucess stories out here (tho they are the best) enquiring minds want tho know----I understand that this is a tool and I have to maintain control but well just wondering if it ever really gets easier ----------

when i eat too much i get the tightness especially in my back between my shoulder blades-i had soup today and some salad-dr says i am doing fine and that eating is ok as long as i chew chew chew and no steak till 3 weks-tough on the stomach-still drinking boost several times a day too- so so far all is well-

dr appointment tomorrow- wish me well

dr appointment tomorrow-

1 week post op- and doing well --you will do fine too- sounds like you have a great attitude-- good luck you will be surprised how good you will feel as the recovery hours roll by--

you can not take comments personally from other people with poor up bringing-you go, do what you need to, for YOU, no one else and the only one who will receive the rewards- is you! physically, mentally and emotionally--how good could that be! and that WOMAN- well she'll still be the same miserable gal with the bad upbringing--you only get raised once---YOU GO we're all here for you now NO MORE WHINING!!!!!!!!

WOW there's something i never thought about i'm like becca-so far- i'm not even pre-peri or anything yet but never considered this change thanks for the eye opener

carnation Instant Breakfast/or boost both work for me!

PAULA--- I heart U!!

i think everyone is different --SMAL AMOUNTS chew chew chew- small amounts-- remember yout tummy is like a new born babies again-- be gentle with her--

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DARLIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 10/26 for me!

that is great! super choice- what's that line again-- a few minutes on the lips, forever on the hips-- well why even see if that is true----a wise and educated choice--see how much you've learned---and i bet after you ate the food-- you never missed the extras and were full too right! YAHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

your dr's office will have a process for you to follow and each company is diferent- so good luck
