*LAURA* LAURA* LAURA* PLEASE STAY HERE AND PLAY

Miss lady "These girls are a riot"!!!! It's a blast here I tell ya

My husband had not seen me since 3 days after my surgery ( 11 weeks later) He just keeps telling me over and over how amazing I look, how he cant believe how well I'm doing. It makes me feel amazing. I have not seen many people I know yet. But I'll tell ya if I hear a good one. I love the pixie comments! I can see that!

LMFAO I just sure you did!!

I'm sorry Tara I see how that sounds. I've also read a few other threads and they are helpful, supportive and caring. We are all in this together in one way or another. I for one was shocked to see that kina of overpowering person just be down right rude to her fellow Banders. I mean I can understand her point but it was gone about all wrong. I think a fight may have been what she was looking for. UGH Anyway Hello welcome to the "sleeve" forms

Holy Crap!!! The lapband "Poll Thread started by NANA" or whatever her name is. Is enough to make my brain hurt! Yikes I'm soooo glad I've not seen someone here like that! I'm also glad I'm a sleever and not on another form!

I was freaked out too!! I just kept wanting the smell to go away....NOW however I wish I was still in lol Use it while you can. For me walking was what kept me in it I believe for so long. Good luck lady

GG.......It scares me how much you speak to me. When I read your posts about your habits it's me! Creepy I know but there it is! Sugar was my drug of choice. I would eat a whole cake and not think twice about how bad it was! gah it'll take me a very long time to control that .

Crap I feel robbed!!! I only had 4 oz of broth (I added unflavored Protein powder to mine) 3 times a day. And I made that last 30 mins! WTH It just happened that was how many I drank. I was never told how many times a day I just craved the saltiness.

LOL SORRY!!! I just made BBQ Pulled chicken in the crockpot. So Heavenly......but with cheese and rice would be amazing! Sadly I'm not eating the rice yet! I'm having a carb fobia right now when It comes to pasta, breads, rice ect. SNIFF SNIFF not hard dealing but Taco Rice and Cheese (TRC) sound so great! MMMMM Sorry I'll stop not now. Not to turn your topic!!

cheese and Rice....... that's not the number wise % I would have ever thought to be something I could do. Sad as that sounds geesh It's amazing how we think of ourselves huh. Thanks miss GG your so natural finding the right way to see and express things.

Thanks lady!!

crap i'm a sleever is that ok? were all on a weight loss journey right!!

I'm on MFP as ersopher Add me all please

ok I love this name

I seen it a few times on here people saying the same. Urine will some times get that way also. I didn't have bad breath but for the first week maybe 2. However I sure smelled like a kitty litter box for like 2 months. Mine was ketosis. I'm outta it now unfortunately (and I say that only because ketosis is a mass fat burning mode brought on by low carb, low cal and high Protein diet) Use this time to get into walking daily or some other form of exercising to help you with the weight loss while your still in it wont last forever. Oh and I've seen people say they kept some kinda breath strips with them

Ok that makes since. I was thinking s*** I'm movin then lol so then 265 from pre op diet start. Why don't I know these things

REALLY!! Is this how everyone calculates there weight? I've only been tracking since my surgery date. Sheesh GG your right doesn't matter how I lost it just that I did. K can we do me again??? Pretty please HW at first apt to get stated on my insurance approval in Feb was 278. CW 196 GW 150. Wish I would have thought about the other 29 pounds Before sx. lol Is everyone counting the pre op weight?

WOW !!! Woman you look FREAKING AMAZING!!! I see no rolls! Your Hubby looks like he doesn't need to lose anymore! Laura is right you both look at goal! How amazing! Your doing so good both of you! Keep it up and you'll be at 150 in a flash!

WHA.... are we counting our SW from when we seen the Dr. for the first time when we decided to have surgery or Surgery SW the day of surgery Because shoot I was 278 when I started this journey, Did my 3 month supervised diet then on to surgery. do they only consider you a success only with the weight you have lost after your surgery. Which I would think. But could be wrong??

So going to try this!

K might save me a headache and a cussing session if I let you do this for me!! SW 249 CW 196 GW 150 TY I just loving reading your posts lady

OMG DUH!!! lol Thank you. Why I didn't connect that is beyond me!!

Could be a stupid but ummm....whats TOM?
