Yes Ashley drink your shake for breakfast because you need to get your protein in. As lisalee said the soup is full of veggies and fiber. And of course it you consume less calories eating the soup then if you were eating some other foods. I see you were recently banded. Be sure you are drinking enough fluids and getting enough protein in.

LMBO Let's pray for new friends. LOL Lord you know Dougs friends are lame, please send us some new friends. LOL He heard the prayer and guess what, he already knows about the lame friends. But it is ok because you still call them FRIENDS.

You go girl, you did do it!! WOOOHOOOOO

I borrowed your idea also. Love your Dreams, you go girl, make them reality!!!!

Hey banster boy it is good to see you. I am sorry to hear about the infection but we will have to just pray on that and watch it heal. Well, where are the numbers, how much have you lost?

Congratulations on your band, I so happy that everything went well. As far as your tylenol, tell your mom to bring liquid tylenol with her. It is the Adult formula, I'm surprised no one told you. It works wonders. The pain in your chest, call your doctor ASAP and ask about your Vitamins also. I had chewables to I started taking them the next day after surgery.

You go girl!!! Dr. Curry and everyone is proud of you. Great Job!!! You smell better already. You know cig smoke stinks. Does it stink to you yet?

I really enjoyed my Thanksgiving Day. :hungry: I plan on going walking today and this weekend. Piggyback off of Cha Cha dreams Tiny NSV's Running up and down the stairs and am not ready to drop dead Knees don't hurt as much when running up and down the stairs The band keeps me from filling a plate up with food, woofing it down and then go back for more. Private NSV for friend Able to sit with one leg under me without my leg falling off dead Able to comfortably do the sit sideway crossleg The confidence is amazing, I know it is also the coming of age....40 None of my clothes are tight anymore. LOL Did I tell you I love my collar bones. I can actually feel them and they are almost able to show all by theirselves if I position them right. LOL I'm so excited.:clap2:

Oh Doug breath 1,2,3,4,5. OK let's see where to start. Stop hating on your friends girlfriend. Wouldn't you rather hang out with your girl then your boys. HELLO OK What you do for others, don't expect them to do the same for you. Everyone is not built that way. Where you give our blessings is not always where you will get them. I am so happy surgery went well but sorry you didn't have enought pain killers but at least it's over. Nexttttt, hey expected to hear about what you bought to shrink your liver.

Awwww she is adorable. I guess the tripdiphan got her. You guys had a nice dinner according to her try. I love peas and macaroni, I think I will make a casserole this weekend out of the leftovers. I need to go buy some peas. I don't keep them in the house because I look at them as a starch and not a veggie.

Hey Muggle I hope you had a nice thanksgiving. I saw in another thread where you therapist is willing to back you up in a revision. I hope that works out well for you.

You are too precious, thank you honey.

Uummmmm rum I think I need to go to oneeeee morrreeee store! Liquore store (how do you spell that if you have not been drinking) ReneBean that is too funny:dance:

I was trying to figure out a way to put this gently. I gained 4 pounds.....but I'm ok with it. That doesn't sound good I know but 10 pounds was just so out of character for me. Neck -1 chest -5 Bust -5 Under bust -4 Waist -5 Hips -3 Thighs -2 Calves -1 Arms- 1 1/2 Wrist -1 WOW 28 1/2 inches gone from my body and just think there is so much more that needs to go away. LOL 18 pounds to move 100 pounds AWAYYYYYY

WOW a thorough doctor, I'm impressed also. LOL I happy to hear you are being well taken care of. I hope you have a happy....Australia, do you celebrate Thanksgiving tomorrow. hummmm I know Canada celebrates it at a diffrent time. Anyhow, Happy Holidays.

Awwwww here's a big hug for you. (((((((hhhhuuuuuugggggg)))))))

I like that title LOL I had a rough mental eating day yesterday....no excuses. I'm not sure why but weighing in may have had something to do with it. pepperjack cheese italian sausage(I boiled and broiled) crystal light oreos soup(home made, potato,cheese, broccoli, mushroom) When I got home ice cream(egg nog was on sale) cake that I had baked for a friend who did not pick it up OK this may be an excuse but my eating may be a little off due to my condition of emotional eating (say with french accent). Holidays do give me serious mood swings. Happy one minute to downright crying and why am I here. Both of my parents are gone and it hurts. I am the youngest and we have a small family. I like the holidays but I feel releaved when they are over. So pray for me that I will exercise today and everyday here on out. I love everyone of you...ohhhhh yeah my weigh out 383-373-377 I gained 4 pounds but I am actually ok with it. That means I was actually supose to have lost 6 pounds last week to keep off. This just means that when I get out of the 370'2 I will be out for good. I still can't believe I weight 3 hundred anything. LOL Recently I said I weigh 473 and my daughter corrected me and I actually had to think. WOW 459-377 yeahhhhhhh:clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

WOW on the cigs and the hot yoga. I couldn't do that, I would be in that room trying to pass out because I couldn't breath. LOL Hey Bullwinkle is quitting smoking also. Go check out her journal when you have time. I loved her entry for today. I don't smoke so I can't totally relate but I do understand addiction hence the 459 pounder.

Girl you are beautiful, always walk proud!!! Beautiful hubby to *cat call whistle*

Your writting skills are great. Have you ever thought about writing a book or do you jornal a lot. I normally write down just quick thoughts but your journal is so much deeper. I feel like I am there seeing you go through all of this. Do you have someone to call when you want to smoke? I don't know if it would help but you might want to try it. I will call someone to keep my mind off of food sometimes. If I am on the phone I can't go to the snack shop. You are doing great. Just remember all the reasons you have quit....for this moment.

Hey Leigh it's nice to meet you. Tia we already know each other, what's up girl. I wll have to be sure the number in my cell is the right number for you. I will talk to you sometime over the holiday. Alright Doug sleep tight for surgery and check back with us and let us know what all the nurses say about how big your heart is once they are inside. Big huggggggggs

DouglasP13 you are crazy, LOL
