TracyK

Good morning-I did well on liquids yesterday. Today I am going to do liquids & mushies. Only have a few minutes so....I will be quick Jenn & Michelle-my 6 year old dd is obsessed with boobs too. LOL Now she has started saying "ooh, he is hot" (heard that on TV) or "ooh he is cute...look sissy, aint he cute?" Oh my... . But, most of the time she is anti-boys, lol. Kids are so funny. Jenn-macy has the same project to do with that turkey! Cindy-:sad: ICE CREAM.....seriously my downfall. I can attribute my 60 pounds weight gain to BlueBell. I have converted to SF. But I would LOVE a bowl of cookies & cream or Mint choc chip right now Gotta run...ttfn

YAY...it is FILL day! :woot: I am gonna have a good but healthy breakfast this morning and then head out for Houston. :w00t: Guess what....I am out ofthe 23somethings and into the 22somethings. How GREAT! Each 10 pounds is greater and greater. I am SO excited. Today when I go to the dr I wil weigh just about what I weihed 2 months ago when I got the unfill. Hopefully they will be happy with it being the same after 2 months of being completely unfilled! I am going to wear lightweight pants and take off my shoes!! Have a great day everyone!!!

Thats what I was thinking too.... LMAO! LOL, I scare me too! :tt2: Everyone...I made it thru another day of healthy eating. It is coming back to me now. :tt1: The hard part will be in a few days when tom shows up this weekend. I crave chocolate SO bad. Oh well, I've done this before... Game 1 of the world series is coming on....gotta run :bolt: GO YANKEES!!!!! Nite Nite friends. :rofl:

Hi there a lot less

I cried last night practically the entire show! Abby as gone thru something so horrible, I can not even begin to grasp it. I agree...what is up with Daniel? May just satisfied with what he has done...complacent? I dunno... btw...I can not STAND that Tracey witch...UGH

Uhmm, of course I learned something! I learned it is easier to stalk someone on this board as I originally thought. LOL j/j I *know* you will do great...you are one of my inspirations :scared2:

I just got back from stalking Jen, lol

Hi Mom!!! How are you today?!

Good morning everyone! DH is off for 4 days and I am so glad! :woot: He is taking his diet pills (I asked hs dr to give him some:tt2:, lol but dh was all for it). When he takes that stuff and he is on his off days he spit shines this house. LOL, he has so much energy that I do not have to lift a finger :tt1:. AND he is eating healthy with me :wink5:. It is a win win situation. Gotta love it! These cool fronts blowing through are killing me. My allergies to this ragweed stuff is horrible. Last night I was watching Biggest Loser (I am sad at who left and I cried, so that didn't help) both nostrils were blocked so I had to breathe thru my mouth and pant like a great dane. Then when I would lay down it would drain into my throat and I felt like I was drowning so I had to sit up a few times. Finally I got up and sprayed some stuff in my nose, took more sinus med AND used some Vicks vapor rub (that is good stuff) and I was finally able to fall asleep. This morning I woke up and my eyes are puffy, can't breathe again and I feel like someone has beat me with a baseball bat. Other than that I am GREAT :ohmy: LOL Hope you all have a fantastic day! I will be back later. Gotta tell you all something but I can not remember what it is. I will be back later.

Hi Jane! If anyone knows the struggles I have had, its you. This rejuvination is JUST in time. How are you? I know you just did not say that...want me to come there and smack ya? You are doing wonderful. You are one of my inspirations! 32.5 pounds to onederland. I have been on vacation away from it and can not wait to get back there. My arrival there I hope will be by Valentines...that is my 7th wedding anniversary. :wink5: Have a fantastic night everyone!!!

Laura-how is your MIL? Michelle....you OK hun? We miss you.

IRENE....how did I leave you out of that last post? :scared2: Sometimes it is good to get away...even if it is for work. When are you going? I starting tracking my food on livewell.com and praying again every night. When I was gaining weight back, I had quit prayig and I have started again and am gaining strength from HIM and all my LBT friends and real friends. :cursing: All of you are a big help :cursing:. Have a great day!!

Hi Janie! Glad you 2 had fun...wish we could have been there :cursing: I think we should draw up a petition banning reeses of any kind be sold. The reeses plant needs to be closed. LOL They are my fav's. Glad you did not get the storms we got. It stormed and flooded all day here. Our weekend is supposed to be beautiful for the trick or treaters! YAY! Everyone...I really got a wake up call last night. Me and my 15 year old dsd were talking in my room and I was telling her that I really hope the scales were still the same in the morning (234.5) so I could claim the 4 pound loss that I had that morning. I said that down there (my chest of draws bottom drawer) was my 'wish drawer'. She opens it up and sees the 8/10 label and says, "OMG, you really got into these? I'll bet I can wear 'em" I said no way...so she pulls them up and they FIT HER! Oh, my, GOODNESS :w00t: I did not realize until that moment how much progress I had made. It 5% made me sad, the other 95% is now determination. Now that my brain has caught up and KNOWS what I looked like, I am gung-ho more than ever. :woot: Then...to top it off, the scales went down another 3...so tomorrow will make one week and I have lost 8.5 pounds!!! :woot: Everyone have a GREAT day...drink plenty of water and stay away from the evil stuff that hurts us. :wink5: Thank you all for inspiring me. :cursing:

Irene-invoicing for what kind of company. I just quit/retired after 20 years doing invoicing for an offshore oil service company. I never wanna see another invoice in my LIFE~ LOL

:cryin: Thank you sista!

Good morning everyone! Wow, I was SO shocked at the scale this morning. It showed that I have lost 3.5 more pounds. I am not gonna claim it on my ticker until I weigh it again tomorrow. :hurt: I made it all day with NO SUGAR! *Me* No sugar. Unbelievable. I am so happy that I am getting my groove back...and this is with an empty band. I know alot may be water weight but ya know what? 5 pounds of water is still 5 pounds lighter :wink2: so you will never hear me say, 'oh, its just water weight that I lost'....I don't care what kind of loss it is, as long as the scale is going in the right direction.. lol I am about to give my dd her valium :cryin:. She has to be at the dentist in an hour and her gave her a prescription for one 5 mg valium. Suz-SO glad you had a good trip! Jenn-walk a few miles for me! Cindy-raining there to right? It is suppsed to rain all day here...flash flood warnings and all that fun stuff. Hope all of you have a great Monday!

Good morning everyone. I weighed the same this morning...fine with me! I got a new cell phone yesterday and I LOVE it. It is an LG Vu...touchscreen. the only thing that worries me is that it lasts for a while! I am used to buttons! Have a great day everyone! :thumbup:

The baby shower went really well. My friend that is having the baby...she caught her fiance cheating on her in her 5 month of pregnancy. He moved out, has given her zero money to help her, and now looks like he will be a deadbeat dad. She got evicted from her house this week, had to move in with her mom and put her stuff in storage AND she is due any day. The baby shower was a 'get the necessities kind of shower, and she did! She got lots of diapers and clothes and bottles. I got her sheets, blankets, bumper pad, mattress cover that is padded & waterproof and some receiving blankets. Everything she needed for the bed. :blushing: She was cramping today and thinks she may go into labor tonight! For sure she said her dr is inducing her on Thursday (my fill day, btw :wink2:) Alrighty, I am rambling about someone none of you even know...lol Have a great night everyone. :Yawn:

Good morning everyone... Got on the scales this morning and am down 2.5 since Wednesday. Yay... now the ticker isn't stuck in the same spot...AND it is going in the right direction! :laugh: Lots to do today...baby shower, shopping, on & on. I will be back later :blushing:

I get on the treadmill @ the gym. I can *really* tell I have gotten lazy again. My body is being retrained and it is trying to revolt! lol I can not do 5 minutes on the treadmill. I wish I had one for the house that way I can build up to a good time and look like an idiot in the privacy of my own home. lol Why do you not get to eat lunch today? Hi Gloria...we do not live too far apart (i dont think). I am in the Houston area. Hard to believe we were 10 degrees colder than you this morning! :smile: Have a great weekend! Glad you are still with us too! You are such a sweet heart! :smile: I wish more people did these kinds of things! Awww Michelle, I know how you are feeling! I can 'hear' the sadness in your post. I feel your pain. I agree with Jen-come in here and vent. Snacking is an issue with me too. It is very difficult once you get in a funk to pull yourself out of it but you know what? Just keep remembering how well you have done and how far you have come. You are gonna be GREAT! :closedeyes: Oh my :smile:...you'll never believe this. This morning I went into my closet to get dressed and I saw my 'fat girl' jeans from pre-band days. I put them on and while I was doing that I got so scared that they might fit me again. They were SO BIG on me still. It was right then that I realized that I am not a failure, I just lost my way. Congrats on your -6...that is AWESOME! I am going to weigh in the morning and will finally be able to put a - instead of a + (it better be less!) :w00t: Well I just made an appt for my fill. I get to start my band journey all over again on next Thursday the 29th :tt1:. I am SO excited. You know what? I went to Lubys today with dh and I got the veggie plate with cabbage, cauliflowe and collard greens. Let me tell ya'll....I do have some restriction from just the band. I actually got stuck on the greens and PB'd. The sick part is ... I enjoyed it! LOL Funny what can make us happy, right? I just liked the reminder that I AM lucky, that I AM banded. Have a great evening everyone.

PS...it is 51 here this morning!!

Sorry to hear that your fam is getting sick too . I had gotten addicted to Southland and it did not come back. Makes me scared to get addicted to another show.

I do not ever remember being a size eight before I got my band either. Had to be in elementary school. Back when I was on a roll with my band, I got in the 8s, then blew it. But I kept my jeans and other clothes and they are in my GOAL section of the closet. :w00t: I wear an 8 shoe. That made me look at the positive side :ohmy: At least something is still an 8. Jenn-sometimes you have to do something like that out of the norm to shock your body into a diff pattern...you will start losing again. When you get to the weight you are, it is so much slower coming off. This is where you will really need to stay determined and not get disgusted and fall off the wagon. Good morning everyone! I just finished my oatmeal and am finishing up my coffee then its time to get dressed and then I am gym bound. I can tell that I am out of the gym groove because I was hurting after a few minutes the other day. Only way to get passed that is keep going. My dss is coming over for the weekend. DD is very happy about that. They play well together and she worships the ground he walks on but it scares me because he has habits that I just have to pray she doesn't get and if she *does* start doing it I have to put her through a kind of detox when he leaves. lol I need to get my rear end off this couch otherwise I won't at all. Have a great day everyone.
