  1. Good morning everyone... Wow, having yesrerday off really screwed me up, now I think it is Monday again. I am glad its not though :mad: Good Lord...rain, rain rain rain....ugh. Not supposed to clear up for a few more days here. Everyone have a great day!! And remember what Judy always says....
  2. Thanks Lunasa & Pam!! Terri-what a beautiful poem...I love it and it is SO true...been there and done that! Went to get me some pants that fit, could not find any. I ended up getting Macy (my 4 year old daughter) 2 outfits and some sandals. When I left the store I thought "there is something wrong with ths picture" LOL Thats a mom for ya...
  3. <p>Thanks Judy & Terri !!!</p> <p> </p> <p>Jenn-I am glad that you are happy with your fill so far! It probably is just the thing that you needed for a little kick start!</p> <p> </p> <p>Good morning violets...Happy 4th!</p> <p>Everybody be safe and careful with whatever you do today.</p> I am sure the drunk drivers will be out in full force today...
  4. <p>PS...husbands do not know how to take pics from the same distance as the last time...LOL</p> Note the Special K on top of the fridge
  5. I did this once, let me see if I can do it again....I never can tell if I am adding the attachments correctly....
  6. Kat-I will keep your grand daughter in my prayers. I hope she is better very soon. Laura-The pills you get will work...have faith. I hope you have a great weding and you will be a beautiful bride!! TracyKS-hope the fills give you just the right restriction!! Jenn-I hope your fill does the trick for you too. I have been losing since mine, but damn, all I do is drink, can hardly eat anything. But, either way, I am glad to see the scale move down I never thought i would see the day that my almost 4 year old daughter can eat more than me LOL. The only thing I have planned for tomorrow is to try to find some pants that fit...The ones that fit in the waist normally look like balloon pants on me because I have small legs...so stretchys' it is. Everyone have a great evening!!
  7. <p><p>Good morning violets...</p> <p>Don't you just love it when...you wake up and start getting dressed and realize that the clothes you picked out are falling off of you? That is what happened to me this morning!!! YAY! I swear that it was only maybe a week and a half or 2 weeks ago that I wore those jeans and now?...no way...it looks like a family of 6 moved out!!! What a wonderful feeling!! I just thought I would share that...</p> <p> </p> <p>Everyone have a great day!</p></p> <p> </p> <p>P.S. Down to 220.5 this morning!!!!</p>
  8. <p>OMG Judy you are such an inspiration!!!</p> <p>OK, now i m jealous of you too...hahaha</p> PS...our bathing suits are identical!!
  9. Here is another question...for example...does 1.0 Omnipaque cause more restriction than 1.0 saline? Probably a dumb question, but I never claimed to be anything other than that... LOL
  10. Good morning all!! OMG...i still can't eat. Even when I drink I feel the tightening in the chest. then I sit and wonder, OK, is it supposed to be this way? Heck, I don't know, I am still new at all of ths stuff. But I don't think chest tightening while drinking something is how it is "supposed" to be. Am I just being a baby? I only have .9 in there for goodness sake!! My TOM last day was Friday and I still have as much restriction as before. The dr office told me when I went in for that fill to give it about a weekafter my TOM and let her know how the restriction is going. I can handle a liquid diet but this is rediculous! Somebody pass me a tissue please.... OK, enough of me and my self pity party. Judy...congrats on your 3 pounds this week. That is awesome! Terri-I hope your son made it home safe & sound and I also hope you did not pull ot too much hair in the wait for his return!! Kat-what a horrible time you had with your female organs!! I am glad that you were able to have it all taken care of!! Denise-I was just touchy yesterday. I know you weren't purposely "picking on the PMS girl" LOL We are expecting rain again today. So, grocery shopping in the rain is what I have planned. I found a place that has water aerobics...the next step is to find someone that can keep my daughter while I go...where there is a will, there is a way. PS, I did not go get new panties yesterday...I knew Terri would want to know
  11. OK ladies...is this "gang up on the girl with PMS" day or what? lol
  12. <p> </p> <p>Wow, how is that for rubbing it in!! You forgot to say hahaha and na na na na na!!! I could hear you singing it from here...</p>Fortunately it is not medically necessary for me to have one done, thank God!!
  13. My worst... "When are you due?" I am not pregnant!!! AND...you have such a pretty face!!
  14. in anyones experience.... how long after you TOM does your restriction loosen up and go back to normal???
  15. AWESOME!!!!:clap2::clap2::clap2:
  16. Funny how that works...smaller the pic the better they look? Thank you for posting them. it is nice to see who we are "talking" to. You have a beautiful smile:D Well, I did not get to go to the astros game after all. The babysitter fell through at the last minute. Oh well, thats the breaks! I was able to change my ticker...I was stuck on 224 for so long that 222 is a very welcomed sight! I know that not being able to eat solid foods right now has alot to do with it, but I will take it anyway :whoo: Not much planned for the weekend. My DH is working again so me & my daughter are just gonna hang out, play outside, play with play-doh, color, and enivitably watch blues clues and wonder pets. I can not believe this but I need to go buy some smaller panties again. Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining, but this time I am going to get the size that fits and a smaller size for later. The lady at the store is going to start thinking that I just wear & throw them away instead of washing them. I think that I am just so used to always getting the ones that are a little too big that they just start falling off sooner...but I cant stand having underwear that cut off my circulation! I know you all could probably care less about my "panty woes".... Everyone have a great day. Judy...how is the DH weight loss going? How is he adjusting to life after the band?
  17. It really amazes me the difference that restriction makes on people...I have .9 and I can not even imagine wanting more in there. Then I read that others have 2.5 and up and I am thinking OMG how can they even swallow Water? I guess everyone must be different. It is still my TOM but last month it wasn't this bad....anywhoooo I am going to get ready for the Astros game...we have tickets for tonight and were hoping that Biggio would hit 3,000 while we were there, but, he did it last night instead. Bummer, but we are going to the game anyway. They are always fun. Especially now that my hips aren't crammed into the chair and I can fit comfortably like a "normal person". That is my best NSV!!! I used to be in such pain from those chairs before and now my hips do not even touch the sides :mad: Everyone have a great night!
