  1. I llive in Houston but not near League City-unsure of the area.Houston is a HUGE city-I live on the NW side near willowbrook mall-takes me over an hour to get to galveston which I hate because I love the beach.Good lUck in your new home.
  2. I was obnoxious and couldnt wait to shove food in my big ole mouth so take it from me-WAIT and chew
  3. i read that article-glad i got a good doc
  4. Im a sad case-I PB ALOT-virtually every time I eat but Im learning to conform and stop alot of bad habits...like bread.sighhhhhhhhh
  5. I spray on tan and its greeeat-you should mystic tan
  6. my doc told me bread would be fine but for me personally it is not-it causes such a problem its not worth it-it seems to act as a plug and just doesnt go thru-sad too since I LOVE fresh bread-used my bread machine every week at least 1x but now Im going to just make them suffer with me-lol.
  7. im in houston -hope all goes well.
  8. cool-I am working on volunteering in Romania-too see other parts of the world is fantastic.I wish you all the luck in the world but where you are going is very dangerous-please be VERY careful.
  9. best is in NC I believe and Im in Houston
  10. Im jealous of you-youve lost 7 1/2 inches!!!I wished
  11. I had my 1st fill on monday-Im filled to 2.5cc and man it is a huuuuuuge difference-I ate 1/2 sandwich(at lunch) and 1/2 bowl of soup(dinner) yesterday and that was it-was totally full-today I can tolerate 3 bites of chicken salad-woohoooooooo Im gonna be skiiiiiinnnnnnnnny.
  12. movie night at bubless's house near dallas
  13. so have we decided on the movie?like I said that "Be Cool" movie with John Travolta looks funny
  14. you have done a great job and you deserve this-DO IT!!!Dont beat yourself up about not hitting goal at the time you set-you have done GREAT!
  15. Im jealous youve lost so many inches-I havent lost any that I know of-have also only lost 20 pounds-am hoping this fill will be the nudge to kick it in gear
  16. plus dont forget the $150 fare to his office-eeks.oh and its a 4cc-so how are you doing so far?
  17. I was banded in tijuana-I have a 10 Inamed and I got my fill here in Houston for $200-I am not about to go to Tijuana for fills-the flight and such would be way more than $200 plus you still have to pay the $70 they say they are free but they arent-you have to pay lab fee or whatever it is-he explains this to you when I had the consulatation right b4 surgery.
  18. thanks everyone-I do feel restriction I guess-pretty much everythign I eat today gets stuck and I cough it back up but Im sure it was the bread now-I had half sanwich for lunch-came back up mostly then had some paneras soup and bread for dinner-most came back up-I haaaaaaaaaate nnot being able to have bread-Im a bread girl-love fresh bread.sigh
  19. wow-you get to eat alot of stuff-I was on liquids for 2 weeks then mushies for 2
  20. well I lived thru it-lol-it wasnt bad at all I am filled to 2.5.hope this gives me some restriction-need to lose some weight!!!
  21. Im excited cause I was banded 4/27 and can basicly eat anything as long as I chew which I had trouble doing but am learning.Anyway I hope this causes some restriction since Ive only lost 16 pounds and all that was done in the first 10 days. Few questions....does it hurt?am I not supposed to eat beforehand?will i know immediately if fill "took"?
  22. mine are 46dd right now and it sucks but they are 38dd when Im not overweight so was going to have them reduced after I lose the weight my gyno will mark it off as a medical necessity because of the back problems it cause but i have to lose 50 pounds first but then she can write it off and insurance will cover it.
  23. That movie with John Travolta will be out by then-"Be Cool" it looks fun and I think it is PG13-Ok so Ill bring my SO instead of dumping him along the freeway since others will be there:)
  24. good for you that you can do this-Im hesitant to even look at me much less let others-very cool-let us see em when your done-I like art and especially nekkid art:o)
