  1. Wow :omg: Look At Us Md Bandsters We Have Lost A Whopping :cheer2:393.5:cheer2: :mad:
  2. You don't really want to know. I don't like needles so I try not to look.
  3. Just liquids before your appointment. My fills do not hurt and they have never been done under floro. The area is numbed with a tiny neddle and then the other needle is used to do the fill. My doctor finds the port with his fingers.
  4. WOW you go girl, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHdsgW3pQ1w&mode=related&search=
  5. RJB Diet tip 1. drink your water and 1 protein shake a day to replace a meal. 2. Veggies come in all forms, have you tried the new v8 splash ( I did not like the original v8 but the tropical splash is yummy) Veggies in a bottle. Also, look at what a serving size of veggies are, it is not a huge bowl or plate anymore. 3. Eat your protein first and leave the sugar and white flour alone. 4. You must get some exercise in, that also comes in all forms. Raise your heart rate, sweat a bit, run in place, sit in the chair and punch your arms in front of your and up in the air. Lift hand weights, use resistance bands. Good luck and work the heck out of your band.
  6. Speaking of prayer chains. I thank God for another day. Each minute is precious and I have not been treating it as such. I don't need to wait to get a serious illness, oh yeah I already have one or two. (severe obesity, high blood pressure, enlarged heart) Counting my blessings now.......1. LBT Family 2......
  7. Hiiiiii and welcome aboard AriesGirl I am sorry to hear about your loss but you are doing the best thing you can by taking your family history in to consideration and doing somehthing about it. Have you had your heart checked, ekg, echo, stress test, etc? Do you have high blood pressure, cholestrol, diabestes? http://goredforwomen.org/index.html 238 WOW I wished I weighed that. You must be a tad short, I'm 6'1" and hoping to 5'11 by time I lose the weight. LOL You know fat is everywhere on the body. So what part of MD are you in?
  8. Hey Josette yes we should and we will one day. You know I havent forgotten....(taking your hands and :omg: weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee) swinging your around the room, knocking everything off the desk.....:biggrin1: Ok let's talk bras, I am ticked pink (literally) I bought bright pink bra last night because I have had it with my last 2 bras which give no support since losing this weight. Catherine's had a sale on serenada bras 2 for $39 but then I come across some bras maked down 6.99:omg: WHAT. I tried it on and it fit, finally a bra that fits oh yeah did I say I had already tried on 5 bras. yeah Ok so there was another bra, diffrent make and white, I had to try it on because all bras are not created equal. It fit WHAT! 10.99 Oh yeah I got 2 new bras, not the colors I would have chosen but I will be wearing them....often. I will be sure to put the bright pink one on with my white shirt on the weekend. LOL
  9. jqpublic who one? I wasn't in it but I am curious.

    Thank you

    Thank You
  13. You are too funny but yes it is all about love and acceptance. But who has to love and accept you. As you get older you really don't care about what other people think as long as you love yourself. When you walk out the door in the winter with your hair pulled back (not brushed), a comfy seatshirt, your favorite pair of black pants with pockets and a hole in the knee, flip flops and then you put on some lipstick:kiss2: and your head held high as you go to 3 stores and you see people you know and you smile and wave and feel good that you are able to get back into that sweatshir and pants that you weren't able to wear 2 years ago. That calls for the Barney song. Come on Chameleon let's celebrate the 7.4 lost. I love you, you love me, we're a great big family.

  19. Oh No, cars are not suppose to stop on women with children in it. It has to get better. It is Friday, hopefully you can destress and work out some of these issues. Get that man to fix your car, get rid of the kids to unwind and do a hot conditioner and cholosterol for your hair breakage. You don't have a band yet, tell your hair to wait.:rolleyes
  20. :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: OK Maryland Bandsters that is 167.5 pounds so far. :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: Come on your guys, where are you hiding. :cheer2: I know Maryland has lost at least 500 pounds. :cheer2:
  21. You better not eat that bun.
  22. That is cool, so how was it Penni?
  23. I love Trader Joes, wooohooo. Crackers aren't so bad, is that what you are having at night? What are you putting on them?
  24. Come on your guys let's play. I need Kentucky Avenue, Virginia Avenue, Virmont Avenue and Meditranean Avenue.
  25. Play it by ear to see how you really feel. Take your Water and Protein shakes or drinks. Sip all day so you don't become dehydrated. the anesthesia will still be in your body so may become tired at some point. Be sure to take some liquid tylenol with you. I didn't need the pain meds they prescribed, the tylenol was enough. Good Luck
