Gibson

48 pounds in two months? That is flippin' amazing!!! I'm so happy for you and you are looking great!!! =)

Ooh, you just reminded me of something. I've gotten the stuck feeling three, (yeah Angie, I'm like you...sometimes it takes a long time for me to get the hint! lol), count 'em, three times before I vowed to never try a single french fry again as long as I live. I wasn't even going to eat more than one. I just wanted to try one. Yeah. Three times.

Ironically, the only thing that has ever gotten stuck on me is meat. The thing I'm supposed to be eating first at my meals! I've had sticking episodes with chicken, fish, and ground beef. Everything else I've ever tried (bread included) has gone down just fine.

tapshoes, undulate and uvula are two of the words I hate!! lol

That also triggered a memory for another word that makes me cringe. Vulva. Eeeewwwwww.

I know we must have some faithful lurkers here who don't post for one reason or another. Please, PLEASE come out of the woodwork and join us! You can help us keep this place hoppin'!

This truly is a funny, friendly, super-supportive group of people. Come on out and play with us!

Lurkers....it's time to DELURK!!!!! :thumbup:

I never have but I'd like to sometime. I used to be addicted to a Christian chat room about ten or so years ago though and I'm afraid I'll get hooked again.

This is my spring break and instead of cleaning I've been here posting all week already, all I need is a chat addiction on top of this. Someone kick me out of here until I can accomplish something!!!

Thanks to ReadySteadyGo, now I know!

Check out your public profile to see what I'm talking about.

I've been trying to add some of you as my friends because when I click on your profiles it says, "no one has befriended Jane Doe yet". How sad is that? :crying:I can't stand to think some of my fellow Double V's haven't been befriended yet! =)

Thanks RSG for befriending me! =) :thumbup:

I understand your excitement, Jaime! One of my fantasies is to burn all of my old panties, socks, and bras in a big bonfire then go out and buy all new ones!

Crystal, you were beautiful then and you're beautiful now! Wow, that graduation picture looks like it belongs in a catalog somewhere. It's stunning!

I don't have any glory day pictures because I weighed 250 when I graduated high school! That's one wild thing about the potential of losing weight with this band, I don't even know what my regular human, healthy weight body might look like! Will I have a waist? Will I have an ass? Hopefully time will tell!

RSG, I think I might need to kill my scale, too. But he's been so good to me lately it's almost easy to forget the bad times! I am definitely obsessed with weighing, though. I've had a couple of days lately where I woke up feeling thinner but the scale didn't reflect my mental state. It really ticked me off!

I admire the heck out of you for staying off your scale.

These are all great ideas, girls!

RSG, I just got an invitation to a "Second Chance Prom" that a local Lap Band surgeon is having for his patients! You should mention it to your support group and see if they might be interested in doing something like that. Unfortunately, I had no desire to go to my first prom and I still don't have the desire. I don't think it had anything to do with being fat, though, I think it was because I was anti-social.

Yeah, where are you? We miss our voice of reason!

Gibson googles gobbets. Got it, Gibson. Give us gobbets gleefully.

Okay, pain meds are my muses. Or not.....

Well Ezma, your muses amused me at least! =) Why are you in pain?

*runs off to google gobbets*

I had never heard that word before in my life! I never even knew that googling gobbets was possible until today! =)

I guess banded sex brings a whole new meaning to the phrase "hitting your sweet spot".

Ezma...nipple is one of my words too!!!! lol How funny is that?

I also cringe whenever I hear a word that has a p with a long u sound like pubic or pubescent. *shudders*

Sex is good exercise' date=' isn't it??? :w00t: Can you imagine trying to log that into your exercise journal though? [/quote']

I copied and pasted this straight from Fitday. I'm just sayin'.

Sexual activity, Active, vigorous effort

Sexual activity, General, moderate effort

Sexual activity, Passive, light effort, kissing, hugging

If I had a boyfriend I wouldn't have to worry about paying for a gym membership! :biggrin:

Apparently we have someone named Andy to thank for this! Thanks Andy! *waves*

Angie, you get it too! We must be the naughty ones in the bunch! LOL

=)

I actually made a kitty litter cake for my students a few years ago and they still come back and talk to me about it! It was pretty cool. I baked a regular cake and crumbled it up with some kind of pudding inside, put it in a real litter box (never used, of course!), then I crumbled vanilla Cookies on top that were colored with green food coloring. Then I melted Tootsie rolls and twisted them convincingly on top for the extra gross factor and served it with a poop scoop! It was so great!! (The recipe is online.) I always told my kids that if they missed the bus they had to come home with me and wash my dishes and clean out the litter box so they really loved it.

I did buy a fatty seat, so I'm hoping it's gentler on my girly parts (see my other thread for why... =D)

:smile2: You go girl!!! :tongue:

This is so interesting!

See Angie, I've been calling you Angie For Big in my head now for months and had no clue what that meant. Now I know I've got it all wrong!

tripod, I um, er...think I know the dumb old joke about your frat's name. I thought you were either a photographer or um, ....yeah. :smile2::tongue:

I'm so glad you are feeling better! You make "sludge in the bile ducts" sound like no big deal. You must be tough as nails!

*looks up home remedies for self-removal of sludge in bile ducts*

Something about the word "moist" almost makes me hurl.

And why do all the people on movie and TV call realtors REAL uh tors?

Gee thanks Becca, I think my girly parts just winced after reading your post. I didn't even know they could do that.
