Yeah, that is awesome! Why do males lose faster than us ladies? Is it the higher metabolisms? Frustrating to say the least.

If there was a chat room at our disposal I'de use it a few times a week. If the chat room is something that has to be scheduled then I'de use it once a week.

These are all great ideas, thanks ladies you've been very helpful. I'm gonna go now and take a cool shower then find some benedryl since it's time to go to bed anyway. The more I look into this computer the more swollen my eyes are getting! I do have claritin, I don't have to take it often but I did notice me sneezing ALOT yesterday and this morning. Maybe it's a combination of all sorts of things that has triggered these things to surface. You know I never had allergies until after my 2nd child. Never when I was a child. Now Is'nt that strange to y'all? Did anyone else experience allergic reactions after they were an adult?

Harley Baby you took the words right out of my mouth!

Does anyone out there have a good solution for hives? I've never had hives in my life and now my face is COVERED in them! I really do resemble the hunchback with a narled face! I've been under so much stress with issues in my life I've broke out badly with these things. I need something other than benedryl, that puts me to sleep. I have rubbed anti itch creme on them but thats not enough.

Dear Portless, That sexercise thread sounds like something you need to do! You could pull that off. Just make sure to be careful trying to meet your daily quota your port site is still vunerable :cheeky Second day of yard sale and it DID rain! I'm not complaining we got everything put up before it got soaked and made lots of $$! All of this made for some good ol' exercise! I've paid my dues for a day or two or three :cheeky

First day of yard sale down one more to go! Feels good to be out in the fresh air. I thought it would rain but it did'nt, thank God!

I don't know how I missed this entire post. Betty congratulations and welcome to bandland! I'm so glad your doing good. Already up and about like a good girl!

You've gotta be kidding me greg, I've been needing something to clean up the oil stain from our drive can I really use coke to do the job?

Hey guys don't let Marie lie to you, she is a cutie! Cute as a button! She had me thinking she was the hunchback of NotreDam or something, but then I thought...could the hunchback ride a bike like Marie does. Things were not adding up. Sure enough she showed up at my door and she was definatly the cutest one in the house today. I resembled the hunchback not Marie. I don't want to hog this thread but since Marie is our bicycling guru I figured it pertained to exercise. Marie post a pic or else!

LOL M&M, A ton of money...So, when I tote that ton of money around does that count for exercise? Coins are heavy you know!

LOL Babs Donali, where at in Germany did your BF live? Our foriegn exchange student is from Germany. He'll be here in the states right after Christmas.

Hi, yes Dr. S is my doc too. Love him, hard to find someone who dos'nt like him. Marie thats good advice about checking with your Benefits Co. first. My first step was to call my ins. co. to see if they covered weight reduction surgery and found out that my husbands employer has an exclution on weight reduction proceedures. Bummer. Why do you think this band could be for you? How over weight are you? Do you know your BMI? Tell us a little bit about yourself if you don't mind.

Paula, Ginny, Kyleigh, Leatha am I forgetting anyone? What did you girls have in mind? Are we talking girls day out? Meaning no baggage like kids or men? Talk to me ladies...

I exercised again today... New Hope and I cleaned, organized and prepared for my yard sale! Tell em Marie! Did'nt we do a good job today?

Thats funny! Ryan was you thinking the same thing? Be honest...

Too much what? Hey maybe I should have some initials under my name... But what?

Middle Age Stud or it will read something like MASM = Middle Age Stud Muffin, I think once he loses alot of his weight he'll see his self as a different man. Happens all the time to us women, Right?

Yes, Galveston sounds good to me...beach house, margarita, sunsets, sunrises, long walks on the beach as the tide rolls in, collecting sea shells, beach combing, sitting around a camp fire roasting marshmellows and making smores, lots of girl friend time, it all sounds good to me. I've got Galveston on my mind. I'll be there the week of Feb. 22 (my aniversary) anyone want to come and visit me on the weekend?

I did something physical today! I cleaned out my "catch all" room. It was horrible and now it's all cleaned up (mostly)

Yeah I've heard of that too but I'm not that desperate for caffine ti drink a flat coke or beer for that matter. Paula you miss beer???

This all sounds like fun, we (houston/beaumont folks) could get togather for the day! What do y'all want to do?? Where do you want to go? What do ladies do nowadays when they don't have kids?

I just blew a blessing your way! Catch it before it flutters right by you! Keep us posted and be good to yourself. Send me another pic when you lose down to your first goal O.K.

I hiccup alot of times when I've had enough.

I was addicted to diet coke also! Actually it did'nt matter if it was D.Coke or D.Dr.Pepper as long as it had caffine in it! Since the band I've given them up. I did'nt realize how they were a trap. I'de peak and then crash so I'de drink another one to peak again. Looking back, It was a bad cycle. I still consume caffine but on a much smaller scale. 1-2 servings a day whereas before surgery it was almost a 12 pack a day. I feel much better now.
