Hey I figured out how to put pictures up... You need to upload your photos up to www.photobucket.com and then take the "IMG" code in... I know it sounds confusing but go to photobucket.com and check it out.

Hi it is Saturday night and I am at home on the computer! What the heck? Lol. I need a life. Anywho today was a pretty good day - I had a nice lunch with a friend and only ate half of it, which is better than what I would usually do... Then I went to my shrink to get the psych evauation. PASSED! I am not crazy! Lol... I then went to Circuit City to buy a lap top for my grandpa... we got him a Toshiba - pretty cool. I had dinner a shish kabob of fish, shrimp, onions and a baby tomato. Pretty tasty! I am off to bed... night!

Hang in there buddy! Keep us updated with your progress!

Thanks for the advice about the protein shakes. i will try the New Directions - if you try any others that are good let me know... I will do the same if I come across any good ones...

So as my work day was coming to close my friend called me and asked if I wanted to come over for a glass of wine.... BAD IDEA. I should have known one glass of wine would turn into two and then ... into three... You know the routine. Well I ended up having 2 glasses of wine, turkey spaghetti, and 2 chocolate chip cookies :tired I was pissed at myself for doing that... TOTALLY. Why do I sabatoge myself? Why do I do this?!!!? What I am wondering is how do I draw the line from being a fanatic about my weight with out turning away my friends...??? I don't want to seem like home body or a downer - but I just want to stay on track so I will have to turn down my friends invitations.... Anyway I woke up this morning and decided it was a good day to wash my sheets and pillow cases... So I spruced up my room a bit, dusted and straightened up a few things. I made some tuna salad and had a few whole wheat crackers with it. I had my multi vitamins and am just waiting for my sheets in the dryer to make my bed. I have a psychologist appointment today to give me an evaluation to ok me for the lapband surgery, I BETTER NOT ACT CRAZY!!! lol. Just kidding... I will update you guys later.

So as I was a good little girl this morning... drinking my chalky protein shake. But then... my dad asked me to lunch (He and I work for the same compnay - my family owns and operates a petroleum company)... so I go to lunch and look at what I had... I know it looks bad, but it was good... I think I will just take it easy too night and just have another protein shake. I need to quit going to lunch with my dad! :violin: Excuses Excuses... I know. I will stop it. And just take control of my own life!

Have anyone ever tried the "Bariatric Advantage" Ready to Shake Meal Replacements? They kind of are chalky! I ordered my Unjury and can't wait ti try - from what I have read it seems like people enjoy it. So yep this is what I am having for breakfast - yummo! :tired

How exciting! I get mine on December 14! We can do this together! I also just started a journal... I find it theraputic to write in it...

Last night my mom and I went hunting for an elliptical machine. I am tired of going to the gym and waiting for one - people use those things like crazy at my gym... Anyway so we went to Sear's - found quite a few but they were HUGE... I want to be able to put it in my room, so I can watch my favorite shows and exsercise. The we went to Big 5, they didn't have any! So I think we might check out Sports Authority next... If not I guess I will have to get a big beast at Sears... Any way so after the hunt for the perfect elliptical machine my mom and I decided we were hungry... so we went to Olive Garden. I was pretty good... I had a bit of salad, NO BREAD, and ordered the Apricot Chicken with broccolli and asparagus. I figured that was not TOO bad... anyway I fell asleep really early last night 8:30 - I have no idea what is wrong with me... I think it may be that I have not been excersing much latelly so my lack of energy is out the window!!! I will update as the day goes on! I just found out I love my blogging/journaling whatever you want to call it! 14 days until my surgery!!!:bored

WELCOME Megahn... I have shown/riden horses since I was 5! I am sure we have a ton in common! Where are you from? I work as a Sales and Marketing Manager for a commercial fueling company called 'Pacific Pride'.... I would love for us to become lap band friends!!!!

Hi everyone. It is me MissyDFE, I am a 25 yr old California. I weigh 206 lbs and I want to lose 80 lbs. I am getting banded on December 13th at 12:00pm in Monterey, California. I am so excited.
