  1. YAY!! I like that...if its a regular T shirt I need a large. If they do womens t shirts get a xtra large...womens tshirst are usually a little shorter so I like that one better. THANKS!!!! How much are they? Will they make anything...zach wants some shirts made....
  2. Those look cool!!! Gotta change my date though January 31, 2008 I dont know about what color though..you could do black and do all the lettering in white and then it'll show thru black? plus black will make us look skinnier
  3. Which one you gonna use..I dont mind I got them off the internet....that'll be cool...I want one!!!!
  4. Most lean cuisines and smart ones are high in sodium and are higher in carbs than what we should be eating per meal. Per my nutrition consultation you should keep carbs at 15g or less per serving....I have only found 1 or 2 lean cuisines that meet that requirement....Just as a FYI
  5. its all good I mean afterall the thread is entitled dr. miles or dr. schmitt pts...lol!! Hey theres a support group meeting tuesday night in Anniston at 6pm for anyone that is interested!!!
  6. The first pic is from Christmas 2006 in all my pictures I am hiding behind something or somebody its awful!!! But the second pic was from just the other day.
  7. :laugh::party:YAY!!!!
  8. or NONSCALE VICTORIES...there is a thread like this in the 20s support area but I know everyone in Alabama is not in their 20s. I think this is a good way to show ourselves what our band has done for us so I decided to start the thread on our Local Alabama support thread!!! I'll share some of mine: 1. When I got my hair cut the other day and they put on that awful black cape....I didn't have a double chin!!!:thumbup: 2. ALL my bathing suits from last year I just tried on this morning (bc my husband insisted that I have plenty of things to swim in for FL) ALL TOO big...not to mention I put on a pair of Khakis that I bought 2yrs ago...was never able to wear...they fit perfectly... 3. For the first time in I dont know when XL is TOO big...I got to buy shirts last week in size LARGE 4. My neighbor whom we rarely see was walking up the street and she said OMG what have you done with Kanina you look GREAT!!!! 5. I just FEEL better!!:laugh: SO share everybody!!!!!!!!!!
  9. Krista I think that you'll see that the lap band is far from a huge let down...I'm sure you'll see 1000s on here that have just continually been unable to lose wt but can with the band....thats def how I was I mean I dont think any of us would have gone thru the surgery if we could have done it on our own. Start small with your goals bc until you get a good fill it is common to gain wt....its a long process but keep coming here for support...exercise, drink lots of water and eat right and you'll do great!!!
  10. I am SO glad thatI didnt have to do the liver shrinking thing...dont know why but my doc didnt require it....but I sure did gain a good bit those 2 weeks prior to surgery. Good luck to you I know its an exciting time for you..it'll be great!! Oh and yeah it really should help shrink your liver...the liver is a great organ it can bounce back and repair itself very quickly...so given that little time with low fat your fatty liver will shed itself of that unwanted fat and SHRINK!!
  11. My hubby doesnt say anything much either but I know exactly what you mean about getting your haircut I got mine cut with a new trendy do the other day and she put the cape on and I almost laughed out loud bc I didnt have the double chin...Im sure she was wondering what in the world I was smokin bc I was grinning the whole time she cut my hair...lol Ive never been to a Crawfish boil that sounds like fun...is it a family thing that ppl do or something that a church puts on?? Im curious...cant you tell :confused: Anyhow, yeah we're taking a trip in July to fl...we've rented a condo thats is SUPER nice I just cant wait...me and my hubby try to go to fl every year so this is a treat to have ppl going with us...we might have to make it a yearly trip with everybody!!! Good luck jason...just give me a ring if you need to talk :confused:
  12. You have to remember that you see yourself everyday so youre not going to see the weight loss like say someone who hasnt seen you since august would...did you do before photos? If so take some more now and pull out your before and compare....I think what you're going thru is experienced by many...we see the changes but dont exactly believe its going on bc we've been the opposite our entire lives... It def wont hurt to talk to the doc...I think talking is sometimes the best remedy...docs can give you techniques to help you change your way of thinking and then you can share it with us You're doing great, go talk to the doc it'll make you feel better!!!! You may even want to try telling this to Kim she prob doesnt realize you feel this way..she prob thinks youre excited (which I am sure you are)you're just having mixed emotions..she's your support too and I think if she can be there to give you more encouragement it will only help!!!
  13. HAHA, I'll tell him that!! On another note...I think I def need to get an unfill...Im am so sick of throwing up. Todays is our 2yr anniversary so I got a mini cake from walmart in the shape of a dog...mind you I dont eat a lot of cake so I ate prob 1/4c of chili that I made and took 2 bites of icing (not the cake part) just the icing thats all she wrote...I guess thats what I get for eating sugar in the first place
  14. Hes doing good...hes out playing in the mud planting bushes in the freezing weather....crazy...hes busted the sprinklers so now hes gotta replace those...lol
  15. I'm just BLAH! Im not gonna lie...I can barely eat anything and its like the scales have a lock on them theyre not moving...I havent been keeping up with my calories too good these past couple of weeks but I know yesterday I was able to get in about 1100 so that was pretty dang good for me..sunday it was about 900....but anyway Ive been doing the Wii and walking the dogs...My abs hurt something fierce from Yoga and hoola hooping yesterday...lol It's been kinda quiet on here these last few days everyone must being doing good Keep up the good work on the work outs jason! Hows kim doing? Lookin forward to Fl???
  16. Yes, it is called an IVC filter. It is to prevent blood clots from traveling to your lungs and killing you. They do this a lot in ppl who are at high risk for developing clots...if you have a history of clots I would let them do it..its no big procedure they insert the filter in at the crease of your leg (the groin area) it doesnt take long If you had clots in your 20s youre still at high risk for getting clots again bc that is young to have a clotting problem and youre at an even higher risk of getting a clot postop plus being overwt is another risk! Good luck!!
  17. I love my wii fit. I havent had any trouble with the wt being off. I cant wait for it to say thats overweight instead of thats obese...lol I want to get dance dance revolution.supposed to be good cardio..I heard it is AWESOME!
  18. How many calories are you taking in everyday? Are you drinking enough? If youre not getting enough of either it can cause wt loss to stop Change things up a bit sometimes that helps
  19. Candice let us know how your tests are..
  20. I've already updated my changes...and will continue to do so everytime i lose...Im sure its whatever you want to do...either way I wouldnt think should matter :wink:
  21. This way the link is on the last page of the thread
