Yowch!!! You poor thing!!! Silvadine rocks!! I hope you at least turn a little brown after going through all this! Get better quick girlie!

Happy, Happy Happy Birthday Crystal!! I hope you had a good one!!! :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: Today is both of my Grandma's birthdays too!

J.S., Kathy..........I am rolling over here!!!!! I'm glad I'm not alone. Sorry Jenna!! A jade with hypoxia! That was good!!

I'm in.....

Bravo Robyn!! Your weight loss is astounding!! I too have this problem! We went out last night & I ordered grilled Mahi Mahi with steamed veggies. I had 2 bites of the fish & 2 bites of veggies & I was done. The rest came home with me. When I do this though, I feel embarassed. And that is screwed up! I had WLS! Why am I embarassed?!!?

OOOHHHH! I agree with Jenna!! Happy Birthday!

LOL!!! Thank you!! I'm sure my MIL feels the same way! She has given me lots of plants over the years & she herself has a sunroom that looks like a jungle! I'm not exaggerating. Thanks Jenna! Iwill head to the store!

This one still looks pretty good! I bought it at Christmas.

Then there's this one. It needs water!

I don't know what this one's called but it's pitiful too!

I'm sorry Kathy, but I am LMAO!! But only because I am in the same boat!! I had a green thumb until I went to nursing school. Isn't that ironic? So don't feel like the Lone Ranger, cause Tonto's right beside ya!! Here's my jade.

LOl! LOL! LOL!!!

:kiss2: :kiss2: Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!!!

I also want to say how awesome I think it is that you & P'nut are so strong for each other! It WOULD be easier if we all had that kind of support & strength!

First of all, I want to thank you for caring enough to post this. I do agree with you. And I have thrown a couple of fortunes worth of junk food out over my life time. What you said is simple & effective! It does work! The problem is being able to do it & being able to commit to it. To stick with it. If your average every day obese person could do this, then noone would be obese, there would be no need for WLS, we would not be here right now & you would be a wealthy man for curing obesity. I applaud you for your strength & willpower!! You are winning my friend! I think for a lot of people, food is their drug of choice. I know it has been mine for many years. I'm getting better though! Every day I get a little better!

Well, I wondered where you were! Glad you're feeling better! I've missed you! I thought you were busy with bootcamp or something. I hope hope you get some good news next week!

Yay!! Tell her I said, "Congrats!!"

I bet that was priceless! Man! I wish I lived closer! I would like to have a party with my Mom & her friends! That would be freakin' hilarious!!!! By the way, I love the stuff that I ordered from you! How many calories does the buttercream icing x-scream have in it anyway? Maybe I'm not really on a plateau?

Yay!!!! Clear liquids include: jello, broth, fruit juices, popcicles & sprite. Have fun! LOL!! But you are so lucky you only have to do it for 2 days! I did it for 2 weeks!! Congrats!

It's much easier when you have good support! Congrats!!

Hi breed! Welcome! Nice to meet you! Tell us more!!!!

I'm staying far, far, far away from that stuff!!!

Feel better soon!
