I just bought a eliptical machine, I want to try and be at 175 by June 13th when we go to Cancun for 2 weeks. I got my last fill on Feb 26th and am scheduled to get my next one May 1st. I DON'T want to tight at all going on vacation , don't want ANY problems in Mexico. Keep Up The Great Job everyone!!!
  7. I eat just about everything on your list, But in moderations except pasta, it doesn't get along with my band.
  8. Ok I have a intersting question???? With the mons lift, Do they cut any of it off at top on the mons?? Or do they just pull it up and reconnect it to the tummy.. Kelly
  9. I had my first fill 8 weeks after surgery, then my 2nd fill 8 weeks after that. I am scheduled for my next one May 1st which is about 9 weeks after the last one... I don't have "Tight" restriction, but I have some and I am still losing 1-2 pounds a week.
  10. Karey, Thats great news about your daughters dress.. I am glad the shop is doing the right thing. They know brides that aren't happy with the way a shop treats them will tell all thier friends and they don't want that. Your hubby sounds like mine, that they have a "calmer" way to talk say then I do.. :

  12. I am a manager at my job , and all you have to do is tell them your having surgery, and want to take a week of medical leave. and if they still wont let you have the time off, ask for FMLA. It's true it is the law and they really can't say No. You are giving them enough notice that there is No reason to deny it..... If there is still a problem, Call your HR Dept, or the next level manger and talk to them......
  13. OK I just looked at your blog!! And your newest pix, Damn you look awsome:w00t::scared2::sad::lol:Wohooo
  14. I would talk to the manager at the Bridal shop, show them your original pix. The dress bodice should be as close to your originals as you expected. And at $4000.00 I would think the bridal shop would be doing whatever they can to help this situation get solved. Also I was never charged for any of my fittings, and I had 4 of them, it is just part of bridal shops customer service for going thru them.. Alterations Yes I had to pay to have a Bussel put in. But to have to pay for extra alterations becasue your didn'y get what you ordered is ridicules. if they cant have a new one made for you, Ask./demand the bridal shop comp the alterations... It's not like you went to a davids bridal and bought off the rack, you bought an expensive dress and bridal shop shouldn't want to have an unhappy bride and mom....
  15. Did the Dr say what the stabbing pain was from??
  16. Usually we have a new weekly update thread each week...
  17. Having the sprinklers come on, and the spray hitting the top of the fence might keep them off of it...

  19. Sorry to hear about your mom. I agree with Ang, if it were me, I would go to my mom, and later meet the baby... My Thoughts and Prayers ae with you
  20. Mine is under my ribs on the left side. So far it doens't stick out at all, But I can feel it more now that I have lost over 50 lbs. and when I lay down I can really feel it. as for the scar, Well let's just say that it blends in nicely with ALL my stretch marks. I had 2 pregnancy's and one was with twins, and then with all the weight I gained and lost and gained again and again I will never wear a bikini even if I get my tummy tuck.... And I would have to say Mine has helped with the extra Curricular activities, helped me lose 50+ pounds so the sex dept is lets say, much more satisfying these days...:-P
  21. I have always loved me some peanut butter, I can eat it with no problems so far since being banded. Bread and I don't get along right now, so I eat it on celery, or alone. just not very often....
  22. Bandpal that was great,,, I am going to print it out also!!!! Kendra you have so many friends praying and stomping for you!!!!!
  23. dr wanted me to shoot for 130-135... I gasped at that as I can't even imagine being that small... I lost 130 lbs once and got to 175. I looked pretty dang good. So we compromised and set my goal weight at 145... I still sit here thinking that there is NO way I can get to that. But we shall see. I just take it one day at a time and see what happens...I am big boned, broad shoulders and even when I weighed 175 I had these boney shoulders that stuck out like a football player in pads,,hehehehe
