  3. Oh wow Penni, you are so lucky. I love Camryn, she looks great. She lost weight but not too much. WOW you met JC from ncync, can we say cute. What, Jen has hips, who would have thought. Hopefully, you got a pic of them. LOL You look like you had a ball. You must have been on a high because you haven't been on LBT. LOL You know you and Jenn look like you could be related.

    I was thinking about not going to weigh in tonight but I was just trying to punk out because I have had some stupid eating habits lately. Ice cream is on sale and it is killing me. It is good that I have really good restriciton in the morning and the afternoon. Once I get home I can eat a tad bit more. :heh: :kiss OK too much. Yesterday I had a flash back. I had soup around 11:30 and went to a doctors appt at 4. I did not eat anything in between but was hungry. I went to Wendys and got a jr deluxe cheeseburger and nuggets. I ate the whole thing :hungry: :omg: It took about 35 minutes but I ate that burger except for the last 2 bites. I was driving down my steet which is kind of long and as I was biting down on the burger I realized this is where I would purge while driving so many years ago. I felt like I was doing the same thing but only I would have had 2 sandwiches, fries, a big soda and a dessert. Thank God for my band. I will go weigh in tonight. No I still have not gotten back to exercise yet. I am thinking about it more and more. I will get there. I have started dancing to a song here and there at work and at home. For me that is a start. LOL I will walk this Sunday.

  6. How are you doing? I hope you are all better.
  7. They are work but sort of tart yummy.
  8. You go girl, you are doing this thing. I can see your shoulders coming. Isn't it crazy where we store fat. LOL
  9. You are the typical person. After I talked to the cardiologist I wanted my surgery to have already been over but no, I had to wait but it was worth it. Right now you need support and LBT is here. Don't forget to check your local forum to see if the have a local LBT support group near you. Also, your surgeon should have a support group you can check out. Good Luck and you can start now. It looks like you have family so utilize them. Start changing something, eating habits or exercise. Exercise is not a dirty word, ex. walk in place when commercials are on, while watching your favorite show. You would be surprised at how many steps you can accumulate in a day. Hey, get a pedometer. They sale them at walmart, they can help you see how many steps you walk a day. They want us to walk 10,000 steps a day when a typical person walks 2 to 3,000 a day. So every litlle bit helps.

    Sheila, poor baby you are not the only one to go through these feelings. We all get scared but we know why we looked into the surgery in the first place. As far as not having anyone to talk to....you have all of LBT and other sites, banded2gether, Obesity Help and I am sure your surgeon has a support group. Have you checked here on line to see if anyone lives near you? Good Luck with your decision.
  13. oh oh you are talking about not covering your arms and stomach. Go take a look at the plastic surgery surgery section. Your arms are not going to be toned if you currently have bat wings. They will sag more and the stomach it doesn't just shrink in you still have the hanging portion at the bottom depending on how big it is now. These are issues that the psych may talk about. What are your expections after surgery? You don't want to have a false sense of your body is gonig to be perfect once you weigh one hunded something. You will feel better and you will look great in clothes. A lot of folks don't like the way their body looks after surgery. I know you know these things but just wanted to say. That is great your appointments are here. You do know that tomorrow is November 1,Wednesday, you said Thursday. I don't want you missing your appointments.
  14. WOW you are doing great. Try to get your rest when you get off. Where is your water, come on get a little bit of straight water in you. Are you drinking any shakes? You need to get some protein in there. Also, watch the gatorade for the extra sodium, just in case you have high blood pressure.
  15. Hey that is my middle name....procrastination, how did you know.
  16. You are just too funny. It sounds like you just might get another little jacket after your next psych test. (dainty laughter)ah he heh he...I mean(evil laughter):heh:

    So, I see you are very young. Why aren't you in school and what does the name mean?
  18. Well I made my chicken soup yesterday and it is pretty good. It is my leftover soup, anything leftover in the fridge I put it in. LOL chicken carcus, cabbage, greens, celery, onions green and peppers. Now looking at swirigirl's message I should have put the kilbasi and can of curry chick peas in it also. Well, there is tomorrows version. Swiri look at your numbers, woohoooo you go girl *poof*
  19. Teresita replied to MyKdsDad's topic in The Lounge
    Awwwww that is so special. YEAHHHHH
  20. Yeahhhh CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
  21. Yes yes yes yes yes walking works. I was my happiest and losing my weight the quickest when I was walking 3 miles a day. Woohooo gotta get back to it.
  22. I feel you because although I have lost 79 pounds I still wear the same size. Yes I have lost inches but not enought to go down another size and look neat. We all carry our weight diffrently and because I have a big belly it is going to affect the size of my tops and pants because everything has to fit in the waist. Oh I can buy a smaller bra....yippee....not.
  23. 55 Days 17 Hours 28 Minutes ...But who's counting?
  24. BPM BPM Yeahhhhhh BPM :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:
  25. Green- you are so right about the white bras, that is why I try not to buy them. Jachut- that was nasty and too funny. LOL TOM I don't want to know what the brown and red was. TOM what color underware would you wear with white pants or shorts?.
