Well guys I bought the bodybugg it was on sale... and I always see it on the biggest loser! So hope I made the right choice!

I wanna purchase one of these this week so please lemme know asap ... which one I should get ?? I am trying to compare the deals but I want the product comparisons... please help!! :eek:

All I have to say is look at your weight loss sweetie ... could you have done that with out ur band??? If not ... this was not a huge mistake! YOU DID THIS FOR U! NOBODY ELSE! NO one else on the planet has to walk in ur shoes... shit he will get over it ... I am sure he has done things to piss u off too ... but you gotten over it... keep ur head up girl and focus on getting urself healthy!! I wish u the best honey bunches of oats LOL!

oh my god it did it again! I said I wanted to pull out my (bleep) hair and stomp on it LOL ... and that my (bleep) mouth hurts bad!

Ok so it blocked out the part when I said the f word for a really long time LOL ... and when I said that I wanted to pull out my fu<king hair and stomp on it LOL ... Oh yeah and that part when I said that my mouth really fu<king hurts ... so just to clarify ... cause it's really screwed and chopped!

I am soooo hungry it is crazy ... I need a fill now. I am on mushies and I am starving. I am so tempted to go down the street to get chinese food and just eat ... not a lot ... just small shrimp fried rice! That would be so tasty right now. And I am so damn cranky I had 6 teeth pulled out on Monday 3 from each side all wisdom ... I had 2 additional wisdoms up top! And it fu<king hurts! The right side healed perfectly no pain at all. But the damn left side where he had to stitch is awful! I HATE IT! I just want this phase to be over! I wanna pulled my hair out and stomp on the shit .... FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry I need that I am really sorry ... But I am still hungry. Any assistance... I want that chinese food but maybe this is enough to bring me to my senses. I have worked hard and I dont wanna throw it all down the drain.

My weight loss has slowed ... so I need another jump start ... I guess cause I am on mushies now. But I damn sure cant wait for solids come March 6th! 4 weeks out... I wont pig out though ... I should have my bodybugg by than for some serious calorie counting!

Man it's been a few days now! But I am glad to announce that I am now 300 on the nose! Took a few days but I am there! 2 just 2 more pounds to go before I make it to goal. I will see the doc come the 25th. I am so excited to see him beings that I am down so much weight. Also I had 6 teeth pulled on Monday not fun lemme tell ya! Worst ever I think it was worst than my first surgery. I hate it! But other than that my mouth is swollen ... Going back to work on March 3rd. But I wanna see the weight come off in my clothes! I want some new outfits dammit! But I wanna be atleast a 16 by the time I see my hubby again ... he hasn't seen me since any of my weight has come off. And I wanna be down alot before I see him again. So wish me luck. Love and belssings Apples!:biggrin:

THANKS GUYS!!! AND I love you all for the support ... When I was banded I was soooo scared of complications and this not working for me like other diets! And thinking damn what will I try once this doesn't work but I am more determined than ever to get this weight off! So I gotta make it work. Failing and this "not working" isn't an option. I wont let it be! But once again guys thanks for the love and support I really appreciate all of you! Love and blessings APPLES!

LOL seems like not many people waited the 12-18 months LOL ... In one ear and out of the other ... Guess they horny got the best of ya! LOL ... But If I do happen to get preggo within the yr of '08 it would be a opppss! But I am seriously thinking about birth control I will asked the surgeon about at my 2 week check up.

Thanks I really appreciate the support!!

Hey readers! Today was awesome eventhough I was very tired to day and didn't really feel like getting out of bed but I did LOL:closedeyes: I am happy to say that I am 3 pounds away from my goal of 298 and I know I will make it there by this weekend. I cant believe it ... it's been a total of 19 days since my pre-op diet began and I am already down 32 pounds this is just shocking and amazing to me. Eventhough I would the weight loss to be more visible I wanna see it!! But I'm still technically still on liquids I have been having jell-o and ensure shakes for the pass couple of days and that's it! I wont be officially on mushies til the 20th of February. So I wanna kill as much weight as possible while I am on liquids. I dont want any weight to come back and I dont wanna regain weight when I get on mushies so I will definetely be limiting that. I can't get my bodybugg until I get some extra cash so maybe I should wait to start on mushies once I get the bodybugg I don't know what to do LOL. We'll see what happens but until next time peeps. Lots of LOVE and BLESSINGS APPLES!

Was the doc upset with you ?? The surgeons seem to really stress the 12-18 months!!

A quick question for all you band mama's! How long were you banded before you got preggo. I know the doc says 12-18 months ... I'm not ready for kids yet but I am just curious. How many pounds were you down when you got preggo?? I am probably going to have to get on birth control cause I know my fertileness will shoot through the roof soon. But I wanna enjoy my new sexy body for a little bit before I have a baby now for long but a lil while would be nice LOL. But thanks for any and all responses. Love and blessings APPLES!:mad:

Oh yeah and did I mention my coat that I wore everyday LOL it's too big now!!! Well it's not really big but it's loose!!!! I couldnt believe it 2day! I was so shocked and amazed!

Well 2day is a good day! I stuck 2 my liquids all day 2day! For brekfast I had 1 ensure and 1 jello 260 calories. I am feeling really good about that LOL! I am hoping to see that scale move down come 2morrow morning. I was 305 this morning happy to see that!! I just cant wait to get everything in order with the exercising and the bodybugg and I;m just excited LOL. It feels good to really see the scale finally move:thumbup: . The only pain that I am in is my port area thats it and I will be so glad when that goes away cause I hate that pain there. I have been trying to dance to burn some extra calories off but it kinda hurts so I cant shake it as hard as I want to! LOL But it will come! I think that's it for 2day though so Love and Blessings APPLES!

Well 2day hasn't be so bad but I am in some discomfort 2day my incisions kinda hurt and I am just not feeling it 2day at all. I had chicken noodle soup blended very fine 2day for breakfast and I just had Jell-o a second ago. I think I will have jell-o again for dinner 2nite or maybe that was dinner hell i dont know. I have to get on a schedule I really do! I need to get in more water and more protein. I just can't wait til I am on solids so I dont have to think about this shit as much. 2day is just a difficult day. I need some energy bad. I can feel my port now it's parellel to my belly button. I realize I have a long way to go. I have to get this band and work it. But right now is healing time I have to understand that and be patient. But 2morrow I will get on track because I have 6 more pounds to lose by the 25th and I am going to knock the hell out of it! So here I go. And til 2morrow. Love and blessings Apples!
