Hello J... I'm sorry that I didn not respond earlier. I have not been on for a while. I thought that would be my lat fill, but now so. In fact I had a slight unfill shortly after that post. I'll have to blog about the whole process soon.

I am sorry to take this long answering you. I have not been on here for awhile. Unjury is a protein shake. It's one of the best out there. The site is www.unjury.com. check them out, you find something you can use.

Hi, I jsut got your message. I've sent you an email. I hope you get it.

Hey Baltimore Joe.. How's your surgery go? Ok, so that was a lame rhyme.. but I really do want to know how it went. I have been away for so long I have relearn how to navigate the site... My job has blocked LBT as a social netoworking site... idiots

How are you?

I hope that all is well with you.

I read your comments on my pictures and I really had to stop and think about it. I'm looking at myself and I don't know if I was in denial before or if I am just not pleased with my progress. Maybe a little of both. But thank you for helping me to really try to see what others see.

Thank you for your comments about my pictures. Coming from you... that's really a compliment.

Oh and thank you fo the friendship request. I appreciate that.

Hey, I noticed that you visited my page and that you are new here. Welcome to LBT!!! I also noticed your birthday - you share it with someone I love beyond my abilty to express that love... does that make sense?

Anyway, are you banded yet or are you researching the idea? I hope that you get whatever it is that you need from this site - I do.

How are your nerves treating you today? Mine are ok. I've only had to rush to the bathroom once so far. Yesterday was ok. Monday was hectic - I had three appointments and alot of driving to do. Seeing my surgeon helped me to clam down a little. I don't have to do a pre-op diet. I am trying to be careful to not eat fatty foods. I don't want to show up on the 24th having gained a few pounds. I'm looking into starting a weightloss ticker. I have not found one that I like yet. Have you?

Hey, how are you? I hope that all is well. I have been tryng to move around, but the pain from the stitches and gas can be a little overwhelming. Everytime I burp I feel like a balloon is coming up my throat. The gas - well although I don't think it smells - it is so long and loud! This morning was rough - I'm praying that tomorrow wil be better. I found a weightloss ticker for myself - now if I can only figure out how to post the darn thing. I'll be waiting to hear from you!!!

I just checked out your photo album. You are absolutely an inspiration! I’m not that fond of me in front of a camera, but I think I may post some before and current pictures.

I love the pictures of you working out. That’s what is truly inspiring. It motivated me to try harder. Thank you for sharing!

Hey Tyme, how are you? How was surgery? I hope that you are up, out, and about! Happy Weight Loss!

Girl you are gorgeous, but then…I’m sure you already know that. I went through both of your albums. You were beautiful when you were big too. That’s a Blessing all by itself – add to that your weight loss progress and you have to know that you have been truly Blessed. I was banded March 24, 2008 and so far I have only lost 69 pounds. I have so far to go, but I know that I can make it. I just have to learn to be more disciplined. I just wrote to Time2GetRite that I am finally going to post some pictures of myself. I’m a little nervous because it’s possible that no one will notice my weight loss; but if that’s the case, then that lets me know I need to work harder and exercise.

Hi,

Thank you for the comments you left on my album. Sometimes we can use all the encouragement we can get. Yours is appreciated.

Hi, it's been awhile. Recovery was hard and long. I actually gained 33 pounds over the summer. I was on my back the majority of the time so I guess weight gain was to be expected, but 33 pounds? I've been working on it - I have about 5lbs to go! I hope to be 200 by June (1st or the 30th - I don't really care)!

I'm blogging this one too. I hope to be on here more often these days. I'll be looking for you.

Thank you for your blog comments and your support. That's the beauty of this site, people sharing their thoughts and dreams and holding each other up when needed. Thank you again.

Hello, and welcome to LBT. I just stopped by to say, "Thank you for your comment to my blog." Its nice to know that I am helping someone - mainly because when I joined this site, it was other members' blogs that helped me solidify my decision to be banded.

Best Wishes to you on your journey. Be Blessed and know that you are Blessed.

Hello, I just read your post on Dr. Signh's thread. I hope that you are well and that your band is being nice to you. Enjoy your weightloss journey!!!!!

I last weighed on 4/16/08. I'm down 17.5 lbs. You are doing great! Down 26 lbs - that's fantastic! I may get my first fill on 5/12. /It may have been sooner, but I had to postpone my original post op appt. it was originally the 7th, I postponed it to the 16th - so now I have to wait one month from my post op to be filled. I'm ok with that. How is your fill treating you? Do you have restriction?

Thank you for the friend request. I, of course, accepted. I have to figure out how to request you as a friend -or is it done automatically? Anyway... I posted some pictures. I have mad work to do, but I'm glad that I posted; otherwise, I would have thought I was doing ok. Well, I am doing ok, I simply need to be doing better.

I was looking at your pictures and I had to laugh when I read the caption "Loved my hair but hated my body" or something to that effect. That is so me. I have to say, that I am very proud of my hair. That's just one of the many reasons I chose the band over gastric. Hair loss was not on my agenda.

Anyway... your pictures are great. Your progress is so evident, yet your face still looks healthy and glowing. That was another concern of mine. I did not want my face looking like I had hanging jowls because of loosing weight too rapidly.

Stay on your journey - your progress gives others hope. Much sisterly love to you.

Thank you for your comment. I look at those pictures and I'm not really seeing a huge difference, but it's nice to know that somebody else does. I can be my own worst critic. But then I look at Gingerbug's pictures and I KNOW I need to step up my exercising!!!

Well, I finally found you!!! Its been so long, you may not remember me - until we bump into each other again at Dr. Singh's office. How have you been?
