I was told not to eat after midnight the night before. So, at 11pm I was making a run to What-A-Burger to eat my last going away jalapeno chese burger (I was under the impression I would'nt be able to eat burgers after surgery, I was wrong.) Also had some onion rings on the side. Can't remember the drink. I look back now and regret all those going away meals I treated myself to. I had to lose those pounds too! I gained 20 lbs. right before surgery! I was BAD!

DeLarla remember your patriotic duty....don't do it for you or even LuLu do it for all woman kind! You can't chicken out on us now....We all look up to you who shows No Fear! If YOU don't show em who will?

O.K thats it....whats "up there"? What in the ____ did I agree to? Now I'm scared!

AYe says Lovely Lisa.... But I don't know what i'm agreeing too. You girls are a bad influence on me. Penni I mean LuLu thanks for the warning but it was too late...My trail mix left splatter patterns all over my monitor!

I'm over here ROTFLMAO! You girls have got to quit! Just stop it! I don't want to make my band slip...

I am afraid I will do this and it will be torture mentally anyway and I will fell hungry and crave sweets all of the time like I do now.... It's a natural thing to fear change. Some people more so than others. Thats probly why I waited 5 years to get my band. The only regret I have now is that I wish I would have done it sooner. I say Go for it! Live life and enjoy all the things your missing out on. I'm still waiting for more weight loss before I venture into some of the more active things on my To Do list. I'm only a little more than 2 months into "Bandland" and am reaping benefits from it already. Energy galore! Having a feeling of self control that I lacked otherwise before the band. There are other things that I won't get into on this forum if you know what I mean! My husband is one happy man right now.... Feel free to email me with any questions you might have. I was a self pay patient here in the States. This board is full of ladies all having a different story to tell. TTFN

Hey, I heard McDonalds is hiring!LOL:D I was showing my DH this thread and now he wants to know when do I want mine! Except he won't buy me a Harley, anything but a Harley. That bright orange is HOT! And I see you've got fringe too!

Lisa, Lisa, Lisa.... What can I say that you don't already know? I do like the size it looks like a lightweight bike. Is that little seat on the back for your DH? LOL! You two kids....what are we gonna do with you?

Adorable! Never seen anything like it Donali.

When I was planning a trip there once (ended up not going) my friend who has been there lots of times told me to pack my "flashy cloths" that people up there everywhere wear that kind of stuff. She had some pretty outrageous outfits! We even went shopping togather and she was wanting me to buy the outfits with sequence all over them!:nervous My impression was anything goes! Esp. if it's "flashy"! You girls have fun and please post pics for the ones that are not going!

What happens if you flip your port? I've noticed my port is on its side. It's no longer flat! When I lay on my back I can feel the position real good and I can tell it's cocked sideways. Anybody out there know what i'm talking about? It scares me to think I might need to get it repositioned. Can they do that W/O opening me up again?:think

Hi and welcome to bandland! You are now a bandster! My husband got a kick out of that one the first time he heard me call myself that. Good luck! TTFN

Your holding a high average! Thats a little more than 8lbs. a month. Work the #'s if you keep that avg. up for 8 more months you'de have lost 100lbs. in a year! Yes you are new yes now is the time to be concerned with your eating and drinking habits. Your forming new habits now and we are creatures of habit! So, work hard on forming GOOD habits right now! Take advantage of this honeymoon time. Keep up the good work! TTFN

You've obviosly been doing SOMETHING right. You have lost double the amount that others have in your time frame. Look at your stats girl, 14 months ago you were banded, sice then you've lost 136lbs., that an avg. of about 8lbs. a month. You are doing something right! I think I speak for alot of us when I say job well done! I hope to do the same. Just curios, what did you do for yourself when you reached the century mark? You know, how did you reward yourself for losing 100 lbs.?

Yeah, what Betty said! Hope your healing up well. Congatulations on earning your motorcycle licence! Well done! Just like a woman to get it right the first time! I still find it hard to believe you actually went and did all of this out of spite! What does your husband say in the midst of all this?

BF = boyfriend GF = girlfriend SO = significant other OMG - Oh my gosh! HTH = hope this helps FWIW = for what it's worth MHO = my humble opinion JMHO = just my humble opinion ROTFL = rolling on the floor laughing ROTFLMAO = rolling on the floor laughing my a$$ off TTFN = ta-ta for now! WTF?!?! = What the f#*@?!?! Hey I thought these might help some of us newbies to the computer world! TTFN....

I said that in jest. Yall make sure to have enough fun for us all. Post lots of pics and please be careful. I've heard about Vegas (I do watch CSI ya know) hee hee If I go anywhere it will be with Tom and without kids. It's been long overdue! I'm lookind into a trip to Scottland right now. Theres a nice little bed and Breakfast my friend is stating at for a couple of months and would like to visit while shes there. I'll keep you posted. Your sweet to welcome me to join yall but I'm saving my pennies and time off for the bigger trip!

Thanks for the warning!! Your gonna kick me but I already read your motorcycle post! I forgot or maybe my brain slipped, something happened. Anyway, whos all going to Vegas, sounds like FUN! Can I go? I fly for free and have buddy passes!

Cute, this board is fair play I guess. Did yall have a good time this weekend at that deserted town?

Alright, I know there has to be more NSVs out there. Energy galore is another good one for me.

congratulations and welcome!

A mirror sounds like the best idea. Esp. if the room is small a mural might close in the room when a mirror will open it up. Friends and family are right. I'm flattered you thought of me maybe next time;-) I keep seeing people adress you as Lisa (cool name) Is that your real name or what?

DeLarla or is it Lisa, if your serios about needing some ideas with that wall post a pic of it (without the big oil painting over the damage) and let me take a look at it. Include the measurments & I'll see if any great ideas come to mind. Did I understand you right, there was a cabinet in this space? Anyway I'm happy to share ideas, let me see some pics. Ryan, you know what they say about dreams like that.......

Sorry, don't know how to cut-n-paste yet, I did try and the entire thread was on my reply! Here's my info. can one of you fix it please? Lisa G.: 7/23/04 -- 23lbs.

Well, I've never been to Las Vagas before. I have been wanting to get away. I'm booked for the next few months but I'm sure I can sqeeze you in. Do I get a continental Breakfast with my stay? Oh yeah, what about room service? Kidding....did I have you worried? So what kind of mural did you have in mind? Yes, my kids do love thier rooms.
