No orgasms on the board Ms. Cartwheels will be fine. You are in the Onesies today, I know you are. Keep up the great work!!!!

I can post today, Good Day Good Day I am now at 380, I am so thankful that the numbers are still going down even though I have not exercised but those stairs are a workout. I hope to get back to exercising this week because me and my child need it. 350 is so close. 459 - 380 - 375- 350

You are precious. Baby I understand. I lost the most important people in my life. My mom about 15 years ago, my oldest brother 14 years ago, my grandmother 4 years ago, my seroget mother (family friend) 3 years, my dad 2 1/2 years, my best girlfriend early this year. I am past the crying everyday, now it is periodically. It is when i want someone to share the good or the bad with. I feel like I don't have anyone to talk to. I think losing weight is helping to ease the pain because I am learning to love me and I am giving the attention to me. When before I needed all their love for my lack thereof. It takes time, patience and you have to try to find peace. When you are in a crying spell listen to your thoughts, are they positive. It is ok to say I miss you guys but then let your thoughts tell them all the positive things going on. Basically count your blessings to them and thank God. That always calms me. Help someone else who doesn't have. It will warm your heart, I mean the simplest things. The person in line in the grocery store who has a few items and you let them in front of you. If the person in front of you don't have enough money to buy one item. Offer it, if you can afford it. That person will remember that for a long time and may even bless someone like that. Tianealperry life is short, give everyone in the house a big hug and smile. Say goodmorning and smile at people you don't like and don't expect a response. WWJD- I know you know what that means. ; )

Somebody didn't weigh in last night......hummmmmm who was it. I went and I am now at 380......I can taste 375......

Good Luck Bandster Boy and Joy Joy!!!! WOOOHOOOO Today is the day!!!

I love Oprah but she got pure pleasure from this show. I think she wanted to say I told you so, don't get any gastric surgeries. She bit her tongue but you can just see her expressions. She hit her chair at least twice, loudly because she couldn't say what she wanted to. I thought it was ignorant when Oprah asked the woman who was over 300 pounds, how could she move. WHAT B*&%#??!!! I was 459 and going to the gym before I had surgery. People said and still say how active I am. You don't stop living just because you get fat. It is the fat that can make you stop living. That is why MOST people have gastric surgeries. Piss me off! Fauxnaif Fauxnaif her guest were clueless.:clap2: I think as a group we should enlighten Oprah about LapBand surgery, if she doesn't already have one. oooppps

Awww poor baby, been there done that and still go through periodically. Yes you are still grieving but this is temporary for you. You realize the sun will come in the morning and so does joy. Start remembering the good times you had with them and think about how proud they would be of you for taking control of your health. They are smiling down on your so it is only right for you to smile all day and night because you were blessed to have such wonderful people touch your life. Joy will be with you tonight if you choose to have it. Smile Pretty One. Lots of (((((Hugggsss)))))

OK try 6'1", 400 pounds and size 13 shoe......close your mouth, you are catching flies.:faint:

When I take my meds in the morning, they get stuck but I don't have to pb or anything like that. After about an hour they are gone but for that hour I feel it and taste the mess in the back of my throat. As other have said, your espogus is probably just irratated. The pill of course has desolved. Try crushing your meds and putting it in pudding or take the pill when your band has loosend up some. Mine loosens up in the afternoon.

Melisssa does that mean the doctor missed the port? RJB you are not the only one. Lots and lots of the banded have those same concerns. Give it time. Are you exercising and eating right? Those 2 things will assure positive results and your success. The band is a tool and we have to work it.

Derbygirl, as you see it is very normal. You will be fine, it just takes a little time for you and your body to get use to some things. If you are an emotional eater, you feel like you don't have any where to turn. If you have not started exercising start today. Walking is the best thing after surgery even if it is just for a few minutes at a time. The endorphines from exercising is like chocolate, love and just a clean high. Enjoy!!!

Just remember, just because they make it in your size, does not mean you should get them. hummmmmm

Well Kee I don't claim to be Santa but I have been called his size before. Anyhow, I know you will have those 25 pounds gone by Christmas and of course it is not going to feel like Christmas if you don't decorate. I suggest the Christmas decorating party/meeting is held at your house. Oh yeah you and hubby need to make an extravagant gift idea list. There is nothing wrong with wishing. I want a jet, a trip to paris, a Burken Bag, a pair of jimmy choooooosssss....... 61 Days 16 Hours 39 Minutes

Oh wow those are awesome Susan. A 32 to a 22 YEAHHHHH!!!! Keep up the great work.:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

Where are my bells????? I will have them on before I get there.

:cheer2: Banster Boy Banster Boy GOOOOOOOO Banster Boy :cheer2: Your own personal cheerleader. hehehehehe

Oh baby I understand, I am here if you need to vent. Parying for you.

Thank God for Friday. I went to my appt, my pressure was high. Got a new prescription. Hopefully that will help.

Scrapbook ohhhh I can't sit down with that one. hummmmm Drinking is mindless, you have think about what colors and textures go together in a scrapbook.

Those pics don't do you justice because you are much more beautiful then that. Those pics don't show your spirit and how you respond to people. One would have to sit down and talk to you or go walk with you to see all of your beauty inside and out. I have never seen such a thick.....fit woman in all my life. You have more enegy then the smallest people I know. You will be unstoppable with the band. Telly move over.

Been there done that. 2 weeks before 1 week before and a few days before surgery I began getting really scared and said I don't have to do this. Then I would think, all that I have gone through, appt, sleep study and I'm not going to do it. Then a few months later I would think what in the world have you done. Well I had that last thought with the band also. LOL

You go girl, you will be fine.

Thursday OK NOW I don't know! B- vitamin type water 150 calories, most of a croissant ham and cheese sandwich(real slow) L- I'm thinking Giant salad bar or McD something from the $ menu. 4 nuggets, side salad, 3 cookies ha ha ha D- I have to cook the ground turkey....
