I'm sorry your husband is not on board yet but he will eventually. Is he overweight? Do and share as much research with him as you can. If you have comorbidities, explain to him how those can get better. Get a victoria secret magazine and circle some pictures and tell him those are your goal outfits. LOL Let him know how much the full price of the surgery and that you guys are getting an extremely good discount. Good Luck Marlluvia.

Noooooooooooooooooooo I am so sorry (tears flowing):think . I am glad to hear it was minor but a stroke all the same. I am so sorry. Tell here we love her and to get better soon we need the SARGE around here.:confused: :huggie: :hug: :humble: :grouphug: Give her all of this love please. Life is so short, we have to live it now and not wait to lose weight. Society sucks.....

Yeahhhhhh I'm glad you are feeling better today. Move forward no matter what.

10 puounds to go to be Super Obese and no longer Super Mobidly Obese!!!! 13 pounds to birthday goal of 375 and 84 pounds from my heighest weight.

Who is up to going to the PG Comm College Pool on Friday after work? Come on your guys I think it is $3. I use to go on Friday because there would barely be anyone there. They also have a jacuzzi.

I just found out that my doctors office scale goes up to 400 pounds......am I happy or am I sad......I don't know but since there is no TOPS meeting I think I will be making a little run to Waldorf to get on the scale and get my pressure checked. YEAHHHHH that is what I am going to do. This is one of those times I would could my girlfriend Linda, who passed, to ask her to ride with me and she would. Whenever I called her to say you wanna go.....she was ready. She was always on time and but of course early. I don't have anyone to share my joy with anymore. She would feel my pain and feel my happiness as if it was her own. I know we were a blessing to each other. I am glad I went to the hospital when I found out she had surgery. I don't feel bad about not going back up there before she passed 2 days later. God allowed me to see her one more time. God is good.

I'll succeed I think sheryl is right. We put down our numbers once we have finished the week out. No meeting this week so no weigh in for me. Weigh ins really help to keep me on track and a good lost really motivates me.

Seppi how many fills did you have? I am sorry you have to go through the unfill and reflux. I don't think I've had any problems with my band. I've had 2 fills and right now I don't have much restriction so I made an appt yesterday for 6/28. I belong to TOPS (Taking Off Pounds Sensibly) and MD Lap Band Support Group oh yeah and I go to a MD program on Monday nights called Take The Challenge (TTC). They give 1 hour of nutrition and health info and then 1 hour of exercise. I was walking 3 miles 6 days a week but I have slacked off but I am trying to get back there. The walking is key to losing the weight. Seppi have you clothes sizes changed? WOW Mandi I am in awwww of you clothing size change. WOW agin keep up the great work. I am impressed, jogging and enjoying the stairs, that is something that skinny people say. Ha ha ha ha How do you guys feel about your body now? Do you have lose skin? Are you going to have any surgery?

WOW today is one of those days...not in the negative but just one of those days....I guess I mean a good day. I feel like praising God. Thank you Lord....I guess it is kinda contagious. Like a smile is contagious, is someone smiles at you, you smile back most of the time. I just spoke to a friend who just kept giving God the Glory and saying he is here becuase God woke him up. I forget sometimes in a small way. I am so blessed, wow in so many ways. A freind called with some problems and I didn't want anything negative but God gave me the patience and words to encourage her yesterday. I am sorry she is going through what she is going through but it takes someone else's problems sometimes to see how blessed you are. The grass is not always greener on the other side but I am the type of person that wants to come over and help you water your grass so it can be as green as you want it to be. Patience is key in life. Love yourself. Thank you Lord for this day waking me up this morning giving me the ability, walk, talk, see, think NOT HURTING, NO PAIN for my aparment for my vehicle for food on my table for a job for my friends for my child with no problems or diseases for my family for lbt for my support groups for being my Lord and Savior for being a mercy for God for allowing me to help others Lord I pray that there is peace on this earth and allow every to come to know you in an intimate way Lord I thank for contiously blessing me everyday thank you for every breath thank you for every beat of my blessed enlarged heart Lord jesus you are an awesome God Thank You:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:
