Hey Dianne, I still have my appt with Dr. @ 3:00 when I talked to Erin about changing because of my flight she said just get there when I could...I am sure we will see each other monday. I would love to go but I will getting in from the airport right before my appt so I need some time to unpack and get ready for work the next day. So take good notes for me and I should be able to make the next one.

Sounds great...I have printed and going to try it one night when hubby is out of town...he hates tomatoes any kind!!

I wish I had that problem...fries no problems at all. I guess it's good that I bake them at home when we eat them.

I would love them, if you don't mind. I have a 2 1/2 year old and he is getting into many different things now.

Hey Dianne, yes to yogurt and don't forget you can have sugar free jello (I added a little FF cool whip on top) and sugar free popcicles...yummy!!!! Also don't forget you still need to get in as much water as you can also durning this stage..... You girls are going to do GREAT!!!!!

Oh Star you are so welcome. I am just glad you joined us. I knew you would fit right in with this crazy bunch. haha.... I am very excited for you. I am very interested to see what they tell me Monday and the follow up care and all that good stuff. Hope to see you again on the 24th!!!

Hey all I just wanted to let you know that I will not be going to the meeting monday night. I will getting in from St. Louis right before my appt with Dr. V and then I will need to go home and unpack. So I wan't be able to make it this month. Sorry the ones who go please let me know how it goes....

What awsome work...I had the same feelings as you and I just let them go when I came here. This place is great. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!!!!

Way to go Starr...that is awsome. We will see you for the last time on Sept 24 pre band...Watch out October here comes Starr!!!!

I agree with Vines...I think you could be a little to tight. I was on liquids for 48 hours, mushies another 48 and then solids and I haven't had any problems. I actually need another fill. Everyone is so different I would say go back and get a slight unfill.

I posted one that a friend gave me on here...under the thread Quick & Easy recipes... Here you go: Black Bean Soup: 3 cans Black Beans 2 can of Mexican flavored tomatoes 1 can of corn (drained) 1 can of chicken broth Dump all into a crock pot and put it on low...for 5-8 hours. You can added some shredded cheese to the top of your bowl or even add some sour cream.

Welcome to the board....I am sure there is someone on here that can help you. I am sure Kathy (the best me) will be able to help you out.... Again Welcome!!!!

Oh Angie...we are going to miss you...we want recongize you for not seeing you for so long. You are doing awsome let us know what your offical weigh in is tomorrow!!!! I go on the 19th to the Dr. so hopefully I will be doing good. I would like to be at the 50 pound mark by next monday but I don't think that is going to happen this week.

Alright Melissa sounds like this is going to work for you...I have a big ole happy face on my face right for you...Please keep us posted and just think you could have a date by the time we meet this month.... YOU GO GIRL!!!! See things are all coming together.

I did that a couple of week ago gained a pound and half after going on vacation. I knew I was gaining and I knew I would be upset with myself but I did it any way. Now I am back I have made appt with nutrienist for next week and I am getting back on track. We all have road bumps and fall sometimes...but like Dee said pick yourself up and dust yourself off...today is a new day and those two pounds can be gone in a week or two if you put your heart and sole back into the band and let it help you. Good Luck!!!!! You can do it!!!!!

I have fallen off the wagon and it's funny I read this becuase I just emailed my nutritionist to see if I could set up a meeting with her. I am now going to meet with once a month because I think this will keep me on track and less chance of falling off. Good Luck....Choclate is a bad thing for anyone maybe like Penni said going to a support group or nutritionist is what you need.

Melissa, Karen is right...check him out before having your stuff sent to Dr. Bauman. If he is new he might be able to get you in quicker. FYI- I know you have the same insurance as I do and Karen has the same as us so I am sure you would be good. Plus she got his name from Inmad...you can't go to wrong with that they wouldn't let some one just of the streets use their products.

I can't tell you who towards your anger to but I agree with you. I would be so mad right now...but that is no reason to give up hope. Why can't you pay as you go with his nutrionist...I don't see the reason you have to pay upfront or why you couldn't continue to see the nutrionist that you have started to see. I know that Dr. B like for everyone to use his but I think he should be a little giving on patient he is getting from Dr. V. I would ask....I really wish there was something I could to help with the anger...but I can say I am here for you..you vent, cry, laugh or even just yell at me if you need to... Hang in there girl...your time is coming!!!!! Please stick with us in "our" monthly meetings...we would miss you too much.

Happy monday morning....I was 270 this morning that is 1 pound for me. Have 14 more to go!!!

Oh my... I am so sorry. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Your LBT family if here for you.

I have not personally been throught it but you and your husband are in my thoughts and prayers. I can only imagine what you are feeling right now. Take your time we are are all here for you!!!! Big HUGS yours way!!!!

Thanks so much...I have printed them as well...boy you are great!!!!

Thanks so much...I have a couple picked out for dinner this week. Here is one that was giving to me by a friend....I was going to make it this weekend for lunches next week... Black Bean Soup: 3 cans Black Beans 2 can of Mexican flavored tomatoes 1 can of corn (drained) 1 can of chicken broth Dump all into a crock pot and put it on low...for 5-8 hours. You can added some shredded cheese to the top of your bowl or even add some sour cream.

Oh I am so jealous....one day I will be there!!!! I will start saving my pennies tonight for next year.

Hey Starr....have you heard the news? Dr V is leaving the pratice....that's all we know right now. Melissa was referred to Dr. Bauman in Concord. Dianne and I go to see Dr. V on the 19th...and yes we are both planning on attending. I know my friend Kami will be there also. Hope you are doing well!!!!
