  1. ok ladies, help me remember please, because i'm racking my brains out! :thumbdown: i haven't had a period (normal or drug induced) in a long time, im currently sorting out my PCOS issues, and i never really been diagnosed for it until i switched GYNs and demanded for a whole slew of tests to be ran...by the way, i got poked three times today to do the insulin resistance and hormone level testing, what a joy that was! :crying: so, im posting this because, i remember way back in the day when i was of normal weight and having periods, my nipples would get really tender/sore and deep pink about a week before i was to get my period. that's what's going on now. BUT i also have clear,non smelly, "vajay" discharge.(sorry if TMI, lol :cursing:) i can't, for the life of me, remember if i got this too before my periods when my system was normal... my question (and i know i can google it and find out, but i rather speak to my fellow bandster ladies) do you get this discharge too before your periods? and if you do, what's up with that?!?!?! -Kiki
  2. congrats on the added jewelry Ang! LOL :redface:
  3. i miss my RICE and sweet breads, well, any kind of bread! but its all for the best, i know. plus, i follow a low carb diet :lovechoc: Yukiko- i think you're a tad too tight. the point is to be able to eat solid foods and get full off of 1/2-2 cups of Proteins & veggies; i get full off of 1cup. mushies are great for day two following a fill (depends on your docs rules). you should ask your doctor, you don't want to be too tight, this might cause problems for you in the future.
  4. RedTulips, your list better be accurate!! LOL, i'm copying yours I thought i gained some pounds over the long weekend, weighed myself today in fear; i'm down 2.5lbs! way cool...

  5. THANK YOU SO MUCH for the encouragement ladies!!! :wub:I stepped on the scale this morning, three times, i couldn't believe it, im down to 235lbs! what the... <- i was like that this morning, lol. But, thank you again, i really needed those words, i was feeling disgusting yesterday.
  6. i used to have both my nipples pierced, but took them out. i started out with the hoops and hated them, especially when it came to "cleaning" time. barbells are the best, and IMO i think pierced nipples look cuter with the barbells. :tt2:
  7. :smile2: i don't know whats wrong with me!!!!! GEEZ! i fell off the wagon, and i need help getting back on. i was weighing between 236-237, but since this last weekend, i've been really bad! i been eating bad carbs, and not going to the gym. im dreading putting my feet on that scale. need words of encourgement my fellow mays...:tt2:

  10. thanks!! i feel like im shrinking away, lol!!!
  11. well, my ex is unfortunately close to my cousin (my cuz is like my older brother), its my cousin's best friend. there's five years of history, or drama as i call it, between us. we're now totally mature when we bump into each other at my cousin's house. last time he saw me was in april before surgery. he always asks my cousin about me, how im doing in my marriage (i find that really funny...what's it to him?!) or how im doing health-wise.so, one day my cousin did tell him i was getting WLS. not that i care, im not looking for the asshole, but like i said unfortunately, we have my cousin in common, so we'll always have that tie. there's a small part of me that wants for him to see me... its more like a revenge kind of thing, like,"you cheated on me, this is what you could have had. too late jerk!" and yes, there's the other side of me; i wish him well, but i hope to never see his face again. does that make sense at all???
  12. so, i went shopping on monday...and IAM a size 18!! it was so exciting. i got a pair of pants, thinking they might fit snug or uncomfortable, but they fit perfect!! :biggrin:
  13. congrats to you too Michelle!!! WTG! :banghead:
  14. i always thought it was because im latin and must've been my genes! i was soooo wrong! i haven't been officially dx'd with PCOS, i have all the symptoms, except the acne, and im going to a new doc this tuesday, and will demand bloodwork<- sorry just had to share! anyway, i have laser treatments done. i've got a guaranteed package deal that includes six sessions and if anything grows back within two years, they take care of it for free. well, i just had my 5th session...i get my entire face done with the exception of my forehead & nose; everything has slowed down a whole lot and when hair does grow, its not as thick. what i am having concerns about are my sideburns...not as bad as before, but it would be nice for those suckers to stop growing!!! colton's right, if you do go in for laser, don't tell them about the PCOS, or tell them about any meds you might be taking...:tongue:
  15. maybe i have generic legs, lol! but what works for me is the bic soleil pivot with good ol'soap & water. no niks, hasn't failed so far.
  16. OH!MY!GOSH! i couldn't stop starring in the mirror yesterday morning... all my "beach towels" are in the dirty pile (bad girl, i know:biggrin:) so all we had left in the linen closet were "regular towels." and guess what???!!! my REGULAR size towel wrapped all the way around and actually covered me!! i haven't had that happen to me since grade school. also, i think im down to a size 18, my 20s don't fit anymore!!!
  17. hi all, as of today i'm down 32lbs since surgery, not including the 10lbs from pre-op diet...all together is 42lbs, and i couldn't be happier!
  18. oh my gosh girl!! you look amazing!!!! congrats on your weight loss!
  19. geesh, we've noticed the shrinkage in the boob dept. already! just dh the other day started laughing and said, "wow babe, i can really notice the smaller & bigger boob!" being the smart ass that i am, i said,"i don't know why you're laughing, you're going to pay to make them look normal." that shut him up really quick! i've always thought i had/have small boobs for a big girl,42c at my biggest, and i'm now at 40c. i have no kids, and i'm 25, and these things are saggy! i know i'll need 'em repaired after i'm done having babies.
  20. i don't know about this.:sleep2: my mom has her eyebrows, eyeliner, and lipliner done and it looks great on her. i just told her yesterday once i'm at goal i want to try restalyne on my lips (i have chicken lips!:crying:) and she suggested i just get my lipliner tattooed. i do have tattoos throughout my body, but oh man, i don't think i could get anything on my face...all of you who have done it are SO brave!!!:Banane37:
  21. i had my first fill yesterday, and you know what? i was a bit nervous; i wasn't nervous at all surgery day! i thought that was kind of funny. but anyway, it didn't hurt at all. it was just a weird feeling when he hit the port, for me it was like, "oh my gosh, i actually have something inside me!" not creepy feeling, just weird :Banane37:
  22. ummmm,yeah, i don't think so.:wink2: i remember seeing this a while back on t.v., sounds whor-ish to me.(sorry if i offend any one ) i wouldn't do it,or even think about it. the only man paying for my implants is my husband!
  23. ugh, sadly no , unless things have changed...that was my first option too!:wink2:
  24. simply amazing everyone!!!! keep up the excellent work!!!!!!!
  25. lol, yeah, i skipped posting anything earlier, i thought i was the only one not seeing anything! what's the question rd0127? :thumbup:
