It's me-Debbydo

Welcome to the WL express that has allready pulled out of the station. Congratulation to you! Keep up the great work.

I'm so sexist, I just assumed you were the girl. How tall are you?

HHHHOOOOWWWWWLLLLL from me too> I so get what your saying.

Thanks for sharing my chuckle. Anyone else have one?????

Kinds reminds me of my sister the hair dresser and my head. No matter what I sya, she does what she wants anyway. UGHHHHHHH1 English, hey just brush up on your Korean and you'll be fine here in NYC.

I knew when I got dressed this morning I was in trouble. I put on a suit (one of my favorites) that I haven;t worned since the middle of August and the skirt is straight and was clearly too big. Even for my 6am half awake self. So I put on a pair of black slacks size 18 with my suit jacket and went on my merry way. I'm really inbetween a 16 and a 14 and was really holding out to be a true 14 before caving in and buying clothes. Well, what a morning it took me forever to get into Manhattan today (the UN is in town) and I was running late for my appointment. I parked at a meter and proceeded to run across 1st Avenue (4-5 lanes). I almost tripped over my pants- they slid half way down my a***** as I was running. What a laugh I had. My most obvious NSV yet!!! DH and I are going shopping this weekend.

COunty me in - I'm in Holtsville. So fr only suffolk girls chiming in. COmmon' Nassau. where are you guys??

I bet you dollars to donuts we are all making better/ more controled choices without even realizing how much better we're doing!! What a beautiful thing

It's not like your trolling for an affair or meeting atotal wack. We're just a couple of hundred people with a common thread.

Well it was White castle for lunch today. Certainly not a nutritious lunch. I can almost garantee there was no nutritional value at all. I use to eat 7 cheesburgers and a sac of onion rings with a 44 soda. OMG - today cause I was craving it so bad - I had 2 cheeseburgers no soda and no rings. I need to go on the web site to find the calorie count. OK back from web site - not a bad meltdown 320 calories - well within the limits of lunch. I'm getting better at being bad.

Hey when I get to goal weight Rene will you be my fashion consultant! Good tip. Vinesqueen - bowling 50lbs ago are you kidding - no way. I'm just getting the energy groove back. My Christmas wish for all of us. Cute firm little butts!!!!!

You are sooo funny, I got it, Jachut even at this late hour. thanks for playing with me. And Jenna you are sooo cute! pretty tight a####. let's put that on the christmas list. Shall I order you one tooo??

Wow - I dunno how to respond to that one. But is there a threat that it will end up as someones wallpaper on the computer?? I actually should print out a copy and put in on the frig to scary anyone who dares to get something out. LOL

And I was getting a little cocky about my weight loss. Is that really my A####???? Well I guess the next 50 lbs will be the ones that make the difference. I was bowling at a birthday party last night when this flattering picture was taken. YIKES! Oh well - if you can't laugh at yourself what's the point. Thank goodness for the fall challenge.

Thanks Jonathan. I did my 16, shy of my orginal goal but awesome nothertheless. I'll take it. See you all for the fall challenge! Keep on movin. I did make a remarkable discovery. Walking and water are my keys to the wl kingdom. So I can't cheat around them - it shows. Congratulations to all for completing the challenge.

OK I'm in I need to take a picture for the challenge. There are no photo's on the board yet of me. THis will be my debut! I'm 198 and in 10 weeks I would like to be 180 , on second thought 179.9 sounds sooooo much better. So just shy of twnety pounds for me. This will put be in a comfortable 14 or a snug 12. and 30 away from my goal of 150. Thanks for the challenge!!!!! Lets all kick some butt!!!

Hello May bandsters Thanks porcdoll for dragging this up!!!! I'm checking in. I have been out of the posting loop for several weeks. I lost my password and the system cannot retreve it for you. DH set up another e-mail account and I am back under another screen name. What a hassle. I'm offically half way there. My mecca of a scale number is 150. I can smell it! LOL What a wirl-wind of an adventure. I am loving it. I've had two fills and one unfill. I'm at 1.5cc right now and doing pretty well here. Walking and Water are my keys to the kingdom. I've tested that theory a few times and WL slows when the 2w's are not a regular part of my world. So I'm off the walk and water.

There is a few of us. Judy Debbydo Karen B and serveral others. Surf the old threads and you will see. Good luck to you - where were you banded?? How are you feeling?? Every day is a little better, give it alnother week and you'll be getting bck to your routine.

Judy, You won't need to worry about a fill until December/Januaryish. I'll ask but don't hold your breathe. He charges 250 for the fill and 250 for the visit. Riduculous!!! Karen uses a place in Massapequa for fills. She was also banded in Mx. You may have better luck and a more reasonable fee schedule there. Mary, Where do you live???

this is horrible!!!! My two cents: I would be super professional and not offering any emotional energy to this creep in trying to be his friend. I would try this stance at work: work is for being productive and successful and if a friendship or two happens it's a beautiful thing. Gals out size or any other are no force to be reconened with. The cream always rises to the top. Good luck, I'll be thinking of you Debby

Hey, I'm in sales as a profession and even I have the willies with Jaxon Lee. Poor taste! We should have a separate thread, that no one will read for infomercials!!

Thanks Vines - I'm not sucking wind nearly as often as before.

Judy Judy I'm so excited to have a new friend at the support group. It's run by the psychologist and the Nutritionist from Garbre's office. It's a small crowd and very positive. It's the second Tuesday of the month I'll post the details I have a flyer around here somewhere. There is a fee - I think it's their way of keeping it small. Karen - You go to Wantagh. I grew up in Seaford - you pass right by it. We should all hook up for a walk (no food involved please).

My blood pressure is 119 over 70 today. even with meds I wasn't near the normal limits. I'm sure I can start weining off them in the next few months. Yeah!!!!!!!

Thanks Vines - your so sweet and incredible. I'm so into finding a dance class - good for you
