American Idol '08
I dont think AI is as good as the years past. and this singing songs of really really older singers is whack. Let these kids pick for them selves what to sing. Just my own opinion...

RNY vs. LapBand
My DH's aunt has bypass 4 years ago and lost 200 lbs, then promply regained at least 50 back. she probaly weighs 250 right now. Granted she is thinner then before BUT she is also one of those people who wont exercise at all, not once has she. not even walk. She asked my why my skin wasn't swinging in the wind like hers. exercise really helps me and sure I will need a TT , and my arm wings wave at people But I am a true believer in exercise. My band is a tool , just a tool that I am using to help me lose and keep off the weight. She still refuses to exercise. Said if she wanted to exercise she wouldnt have had the surgery. Sigh oh well you can't help someone who doesn't want to help themselves...

Hot, Halfway, Honest, Happy and Homeward Bound
Great job Bandpal!!! I love reading your posts also. I really have to work on eating slower, it never fails I will be eating and talking to DH and then I just swallow and take another bite and then Oops, I get that stuck feeling, the eyes Water, and the DH backs up, out of PB range. I am supposed to get a fill next week, but think I am going to reschedule as I dont want to be TOO tight and I am still losing 1-1/2 lbs a week. Keep up the great job everyone.

Employee discount. This could be bad!
I have worked at Old Navy for 7 years and our discount is 20% off there and then we get 30% off at GAP and Banana Republic. We'll needless to say I shop TOO much, we also get our discount off of sale and clearance, so yes it's bad bad bad at times because I tend to buy stuff I dont need and only becasue it was a GOOD price. My DH gets sooo mad at me. when we moved last year to our new house there were bags of brand new with tags clothes in the garage and office , closets, under the bed.. yes, I used to shop way too much.... I am better lately......
