Yeah ... thanks ... I know ... but I wanna keep this ball rolling! I am gonna like try to eat as little as possible ... my brain is now transitioning from "live to eat" to now "eat to live". So as much as I need to live on now! I am so determined it's crazy I have never been this determined before in my life.

Correction 6 More Days!

Well guys I am extremely excited to say this pre-op diet works! Everytime I wake up in the morning I am down more weight Friday at the surgeons visit I was 327.6 today at the last appt I am now 317.5! Exciting ... I have not cheated at all but it seems like I smell food like crazy now cause my smell senses are through the damn roof! That's the only time I wanna cheat. I wanted to lose the 27.6 pounds on the pre-op to bring me down to the 2's post band so I will just have the 2's to conquer. And it's working it's freaking working I hadn't seen the scale move down in years! I wanna say 14! I am so happy guys it's f**king working sorry for th language but those who know me or of me know I am a sailor chick by now! ALL southern chicks aren't belles LOL but anyway I am ecstatic ... and everyone said that I wouldn't make it that I would cheat *middle finger*!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok so I have 9 more days til surgery W/ 10.1 more pounds to lose and I am not cheating it's out of the question now! These pounds feel to good!!!!!!!!!! It's not but I'm closer to goal. I will make a ticker now! LOL. LOTS OF LOVE APPLES!:tongue:

Thanks Queb I appreciate it! I am just trying to stay positive and think to myself well hey every pound you lose now ... you won't have to lose it after being banded!! But I didn't notice how much my life was centered around food until it is now taken away. And how much I think about food. It;s really crazy! I am shocked!

Yeah guys I am nervous that I am going to cheat on this pre-op diet ... all liquids for the pass 3 days I have lost 5 pounds since Friday! But I am drooling dreaming of a big juicy ass cheese burger with lettuce and tomato with mayo, ketchup, mustard and ohhhhhhhh my god I am losing it LOL! I am finally seeing what the "head hunger" is that everyone has been talking about here. I am not really hungry. I am just craving really tasty things. I just need some pep talk or something cause I am DETERMINED to prove my mother-in-law and hubby wrong because they think that I am going to cheat. They are being very supportive about this. I mean as much as they can be cause they aren't saying mean awful things to me ... they just want me to do what makes me happy. But at the same time they think it's just this "lapband diet" LOL like it's just some new diet thing that I am doing. And I wanna prove them wrong I can DO THIS! I CAN DO THIS! But I'm thinking about fried chicken LOL. But did any of you cheat out there ... 5 pounds in 3 days is pretty damn good LOL. I should be motivated by the pounds lost but I am not I want some food. But I might as well get used to it cause no more food til after surgery ... wayyyyyyy after surgery cause I will be on liquids for 2 weeks after surgery. So anyone out there please help I need a buddy! Especially if you are doing pre-op right now 2. Thanks for reading APPLES loves you:tt1: *KISSES*

Ok I'm am seriously hating this fat bitch Tanisha! I am fat too but damn this bitch needs to be on this site with us. I can not stand and do not tolerate people who pick on people that they know they can beat or intimidate! It's not battle... just like a man beating a woman ... it's not a battle. But I will beat her ass! She is big, rude, uncouth and she uses it to her advantage! She knows that the white girl ... (no offense to white people) is not going to fight her so she picks on her and acts so stupid and ghetto... and it is so unecessary! But she will meet her match you better believe because I would whoop her ass! And I am a strong black african american woman and I am proud of my roots and heritage and I have different races of friends and we are all open to discussions like this and I hope you all are as well. But when they put black women on TV this way and it makes other races ... that don't really have black friends or know many black people think that this is the way we really are. And it IS NOT ... some are but not all .. just like red necks on TV ... I have sense enough to know that all whites are not like that ... but all people dont know any better ... all I am saying is ignorant people take these type of shows and run with it but anyway didn't mean to turn this into a racial thing but just voicing my opinion. But I still wanna whoop Tanisha ass all of the women in the house are immature and have alot to learn about themselves! But at the same time that's everyone walking the earth. Lots of love Apples!

Yeah what happened Bradley I LOVEDDDDDDD Clarissa explains it all LOL and Salute your shorts LOL ... our shows were soooooo much better than the ones on nick now!! I miss those days so muc now ... awwww brings sniffles to my nose.

Thanks Jax ... I am sticking to the shakes ... I will do what I have to do ... to suceed. I am just scared and nervous! I just pray, hope, and wish that all goes well!

I know right ... makes you feel all warm inside ... like damn those days are gone!

I'm going to start the pre-op 2morrow. I am very nervous it's coming down to the wire. I have been looking at clothes and forming a wish list for closthes I want whenever I wanna snack. No more food for awhile ... LOL since I will only be on liquids after surgery. I need help I'm scared and I want to know how you all survived your pre-op. I need a smuch support as I can get ... my family is supportive but they kinda don't care ... they just think it's my "lastest diet" that I'm trying LOL since they are so used to me being on some type of diet anyway and never following through with it. But what they don't know is how discouraged I used to get when I would not see results and work my ass off. But I am determined to make this band work I will show their asses (i hope) I still have that thought in the back of my mind now that I will fail this. Cause of all the other times that I have failed. Now since everything is set in stone and I signed all the paper work yesterday. I don't know how to feel. I hope I don't die. And all the scary complication stories here. Just need some help anyone out there Thanks for letting me share! Apples!<!-- google_ad_section_end -->

I doooo sooooooo love it ... I like TV drama LOL ... not in my own life though! my motto... Too much drama on tv to have it in my life. So unnecessary!

well I am curious to know what makes you guys hurt? I am seriously not making a joke please don't take offense... but are ur hubbys oackage that big?? Where does the pain come in. Cause it feels really good to me when my husband goes deep LOL ... i feel so weird telling that LOL. But I do have the problem with him giving me foreplay too. He just wants head and he is ready to bang my brains out. But I only like foreplay because thats what turns me on than I have my moment where I wanna just jump on him. No foreplay needed I dont know. And maybe it's likethis for me cause I rarely see my hubby (military) so when we see each othe we both are pretty darn horny. But sometimes when its painful it's because of certain positions and I know this is because I am so big. Like from the back it would feel wayyy better if my butt was the size it used to be when I was like 16... So I am looking forward to skinny sex ... I know it would feel way better to me than it does now. But even before he was in the army it was really good when we first got 2gether (3 1/2 yrs ago) and of course I was smaller then. But as painful as you ladies are talking doesn't sound healthy ... I know women that don't have orgasm is normal but not excruciating pain ... unless it's something more. Have you talked to the GYN about it ... Or maybe the sex toys and stuff will help. I know when I get close to goal I am going to invest in alot of sex furniture and also a sex machine for when hubby's away LOL. But lots of love Apples!

I say go to her boss and let them know whats going on ... who in the hell is she to try and talk down to you for the choices you want to make for YOUR LIFE! F*U*C*K HER!!!!! And tell her boss that if she says something out of the way to you again that you will respond. But you did mess up when you let her see you break don't give that bitch the pleasure to let her see that she is getting to you! And she's just mad cause you will look wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy bettter than her ass anyway way!! And probably steal her man ... LOL sorry I am hostile I just hate when people pick on people that are way sensitive. Cause if it was me I would've cursed her the hell out and told her where to put it at.

I look at clothes ... online babyphat.com ... newport news ... fredricks... stuff I know I want to be able to soon fit into.

U have any kids Marimaru ???

Just curious to know how long did you take off from work ... Did the surgeon tell you how long to stay off or did you pick the days that you wanted off? See the surgeon again first thing in the morning to start pre-op diet and such. And I dont know how to tell him that I want atleast 2 weeks ... hate my F*CKING job LOL! And it's paid leave so why not. Then I get 6 teeth pulled on the 18th so that's like 4-5 more days. I think I will be out for a good month. What do you think??
