  1. Sunday: 45 mins weight lifting 50 laps in the pool and 30mins giving rides to the little ones around the pool.
  2. I agree Dibaby! I hate my stupid scale. I really should stop weighing every day!
  3. Saturaday, 50 laps in the pool. O here is something cool: I went in to the resturant my wife works in to say hi in my leather mcycle jacket and later on wife calls me and says a girl there was asking her about me as she didnt realize we were married! She sad 'whos that guy you were talking to?' wife say my husband, she says o i am really sorry i didnt know. sweet.
  4. Banded Aug 6th 07 440Lbs, As of Today 369Lbs. Was not concerned. Feel great. I guess thats almost 3 months now.
  5. GO ladies!!!!!!!! I would be tempted to try a spin class now. 50 laps 1hr 10mins in pool (had a meeting this morning to go to) Reached my Oct Goal. Think im going to shoot for 20lbs in October, that will be petty hard to get to but its worth a shot.
  6. Oh my gosh!!!!! Do you know that only 20% of the worlds population even owns a car! Its all about perspective. Seriously book a week off and go to another country in the world, see how they live, you will feel m uch better. "I need a newer BMW". Do you hear yourself? I really am hopeing you were just really upset when you wrote that.
  7. o my gosh, 2 of my fav bikes! ITs just right that you get to own both :rose:
  8. Oh my gosh what a sweet bike Dave!!!!!!!!! Whats the one next to it?
  9. Areelady---It must be hard getting into the school thing again, why are you having trouble fitting in? Dibaby--4.0 incline!!! ouch! thats gota be hard! Today 72laps in pool, 1hr 30mins.
  10. Way to go!!!!! I started with 3 a week then after a while i go EVERY day. Even sat and sun. hated it at first. now im loving it. I have to get up at 4am! to go in the week as i have to be at work by 7am
  11. I just LOVE them older women! Well Musicalmomma anyway
  12. Chris...me too! The Hopsital is probably just not using the right code to bill your insurance. Dont self pay call hospital and insurance and they will get it resolved. I have BCBS too and they cant seem to get anything coded right.
  13. Yes this is what pbing is. I felt guilty when it happeneded to me as i thought i had broken the rules. Believe me EVERYONE will end up doing this at one point or another. Eating 1/2 cup of food just didnt seem right so i thought i could eat through the feeling. YOU CANT get past it. YOu feel anything and just stop. Throw it away, was very very hard for me to throw food away at first.
  14. :clap2:Hey 20mins is 20mins! better than nothing!!! Glad your having your first fill. Mine really helped me. Wed-26th 45 mins lifting weights, 45 mins swimming 30x25yrd laps. Dibaby---thanks i was begining to wonder were everyone went.:peep:
  15. Nicole, My doc told me when you have your first fill the band actually absords some of the soultion of a day or two. He put 2cc's in mine and he said if he was to take it all out in a few days there would only be 1cc come out. I think what your going through is normal even though i can understand the frustration. It might take as many as 3 or 4 fills to get you in your sweet spot he said or it might take 1 or 2. Different with different people. Hang in there.
  16. Where the heck is everyone???????? Well today (Tue 25th) 72 laps in the pool. Its nearly October! i cant believe it.
  17. Way to go Kimmie!!!!!!!!!!!! keep it up!!! YOu ROCK!
  18. Trivon, i was banded Aug 6th. Had a VG and doc says it was pretty tight to start. Not much restriction to start. I could eat alot. Had my fist fill ..2cc , oh my gosh! what a difference. I can eat 1/2-1/3 of a lean cusiine and thats it!!! Hard to get used to as its such a small amount it just seems weird!!! Im lovin it though!!!! Hang in there it will get much much better.
  19. Wow Kasey thats sad. We will surrport you as much as we can. It is sooo worth it! im sorry you have to go through it like that.
  20. Yeah, i have to to MusicalMomma is extremly actractive!!!!!!!!!!:eyebrows:Women are too hard on themselves sometimes.
  21. Thanks Rainer!!! I really aperciate the encouragement!!!! Its the daily swimming that has really kicked it in i think. I am watching you closely too! YOu keep it up!
  22. Keep on keeping on people. I can smell the Turkey now.
  23. Monday 24th. 72 laps in the pool. 1hr 25 mins. More than i normally do and i was 5 mins late for work but it was wirth it.
  24. im jumping in here. bout 6 weeks out. Go to Sams Club and buy Gummie Vites! Taste exactly like Gummy Bears! My doc has always told me kids chewable Vitamins are pretty muchh the same as the rest.
  25. I didnt tell my parents back in England and not too sure that i ever will. There really is not much they can do to help so y worry them. I keep it on the down low because of the 'food police'.
