Lucky # Sevens- July 07 Bandsters
Breakfast today, 300 cals. I like a bigger breakfast... I enjoy the feeling lasting all the way until lunch. Follow Janet's instructions though for night time eating. ALWAYS save yourself some cals for then... I am liking Choc pudding w/ Frozen Cool whip on it... its like 70 cals.. so I can have 2 if I like... gives me my chocolate fix. Also, I like to have SF FF Hot Cocoa in the evening. I am trying to eat less FIBRE ONE Bars, as they are SO good, its hard to stop at one!! I have a LOT of trigger foods ARGH!!! So just trying to avoid them at all costs. I have my cousin up for the weekend, so I made HUMMUS and veggies for munching... and I am NOT making a dessert.. Too bad for her... but I just can't trust myself... I'll have some wine but that's it.

Karla, be patient its gonna take a few fills before you feel restriction Make another fill appt right now for 2 wkks from now and keep up with your fills...

Lucky # Sevens- July 07 Bandsters
Karla, that is TOTAL Crap about you having the OLDER style band... that Dr is an idiot. My surgeon uses several different types of bands. He only chooses the right one for you AFTER he is in surgery and determines WHICH one will FIT your anatomy... Some folks get the 14cc band some others get the 10cc band. He did tell the truth when he said it may take 1 or 2 more fills to adj. a 10cc band. but I think that is a good thing, because you can add 1 cc then 2 cc, then 1/5 cc to get you to JUST THE RIGHT SWEET SPOT for you. and everyone's fill level is differnent. Glad your home and you have an alternate fill dr for next time.

RUBY: WE are all glad you are back. Don't worry none of us here has acheived PERFECT BEHAVIOR with our Bands!! So you IN the club! You will see me posting my daily food totals so that "I" stay accountable, Janet knows me.... if I'm 'quiet' on the thread for a few days... she knows I am up to NO GOOD... LOL IMHO I think you may be a tad tight. That's why the GOOD food is hard to get in... its frustrating so its easy to pick th bad foods, as you KNOW they'll slide around the band and go thru. Chart your food intake, get some exercise and be accountable here... it's o.k. you havn't failed, you just took a detour for a bit... Get back on the Road to Recovery here with the rest of us o.k. Hun???

Yes, HAPPY MOTHERS Day to all of you as well!!! I havne't gotten a call from my DD yet, but alas the day is not over... but I did not get flowers this year... I think she is busy planning the wedding details... Cals for Yesterday! CALORIESCARBSFATPROTEIN840,74,29,71 It was a great day! First of all thank you to Stepanie, I remembered a while back she said she used BEEF JERKY to tide her over when she was "out and about" and haddn't planned a good snack to take along. SO I bought some, and its pretty good!!! It saved my BACON yesterday!! I am keeping a package in my purse from now on. Its convenience food, but not JUNK... I had tickets to COLIN JAMES last night at Rama Casino... OMG was he ever good... Funny story though; my Peter (aka Earl) does not gamble, so when we go to the casino you have to pick up your tickets several hours prior to the show, but you must pick them up THAT day. So pretty much you're gonna hang around and spend money on dinner, or gambling right??? Well, my smart DH brings a Pocket novel with him... sits in the hotel lobby and READS...while I go lose our retirement money!!LOL We each take our ticket and go our separate ways until show time, then meet up at our seats, enjoy the show whatever.. So I won $140 on a crappy quarter machine, but it wasn't quite time for the show, but I went tomy seat early(so I wouldn't give back my winnings) Well the theatre goes dim, lights out, first song.... no Peter!!!! OMG where is he??? Did he catch my flu and is trapped in the crapper? Did he part with a $5 bill and play an machine and win the BIG jackpot???? DId he take this opportunity (after 35yrs) to dump me??? OMG where IS he...o.k. song no. 2... no husband O.k. now i LOVE Colin James, and by song 3 he HAD me in his hot little Guitar hands!!! Sat thru the whole show and never found my husband. O.k. now its the standing ovation, so I leave to look for DH.. I go to the piano bar, the hotel lobby couches, the shopping stores.. No DH.!!! As I walk back to the theatre entrance, he comes strolling out with this BIg grin on his face.. "WHERE THE HELL WERE YOU, I WAS WORRIED"... he was in the show the whole time, the usher sat us in differnt sections and differnet rows, we still dont' know who was wrong but it was kinda funny after all. DH kept giving me Sh!t for sitting in the wrong place!!!:sad: Oh yeah, Happy Mothers day:wub:

Oh my gosh Phyl I am ROTFLMAO while reading this. Peter just piped up and said "what are you laughing at, you woke me up" Poor Petie,, he was into his Sat. Afternoon nap!!!:biggrin: I emailed you a couple of sites that you might be interested in reading.. When I read the part about the Paper Towels I almost pee'd myself... My Dad used to CUT them in half before he'd use one... they were just too big! Can you imagine, he could have made a fortune if he'd SOLD his idea to the BOUNTY people 30 yrs ago. Is EARL Scottish or something??? Too funny, well at least it sounds funny from HERE, I am sure you are not laughing at all. I totally understand about the CHEAP factor. WHen my Hubby and I went to our fin. planner last fall in a panic, he said "aw go ahead and retire in JUNE" you have enough money that if you both die at 85 you'll be leaving your daughter over a Million!!! No freaking way, I am SPENDING IT first.... I'll get a tummy tuck and perhaps an eye lift and face pull.... I don't know we'll see once all the weight is gone and the skin finally settles in to all its permanent wrinkles... Right now, the TT is the most important to me... Hey I'm 53 married to a 58 yr old... I don't want to look like a TROPHY wife!!!! LOL:tt2: As long as I keep smiling, you don't see the SAGGING ;-0 I got a BIG surprise for you when you come up in July!! Its already being planned!!! Ha,ha,ha it'll drive you nuts!
