  1. It's been a rough couple of weeks here too. We went on a mini vacation, and I made HORRIBLE choices. This week has been better, but not much. Think I need another fill too, cause can eat way too much. I stop myself (at times)! I weigh in Tuesday, so will talk to the coordinator about then. At first after my fill, I had restriction. I do in the morning, but by afternoon, I could probably eat a horse!
  2. Thank you 13! I can´t to be your size!
  3. I wish! I´ve lost 60 pounds since last November. 30 pounds since surgery!
  4. Allison you look absoultely RADIANT!
  5. You girls are looking AWESOME! So healthy! Great work!
  6. It is difficult. I had found some ice cream that was 35% less calories, Cookies and cream one of my all time faves. Well, I noticed one serving wasn´t enough, had to have another bowl. I did that two days in a row, and then WHAM! What was I thinking? Got up the next morning, put the carton in the sink, poured dish washing liquid on it, and use the sprayer to totally ruin it. Man it was difficult to do, I still wanted it! But when it all washed down the drain, I felt POWERFUL! YOU CAN DO IT!:cool2:
  7. Thanks everyone for the encouragment. KJHack you can do it! Just keep focused. Enigma13 27 pounds, doesn´t it feel wonderful!!! My uncle had lapband surgery last Tuesday, he went today for his one week check up. He had lost 18 pounds!!!!!! I´m so pleased for him, he is very unhealthy. We are kinda doing this together.
  8. My official weigh in says I´m down another 3, so that makes 30 since surgery. I think we are doing great too! Can´t even imagine what we´ll look like this time next year!
  9. How are you doing with the exercise? Are you getting your water in?
  10. Thank you!!!!!!! We gotta stick together! My official weigh in is today. So we shall see what happens since my fill last Thursday.
  11. Thank you KikiVal and RFromme! RFromme, if I can do this anyone can! I even managed to give up my addiction to soft drinks, which I always had a diet pepsi in my hand! Keep us posted!
  12. It might be a little soon, but I'm pretty excited. Tomorrow is the official weigh in, but according to my scales I've lost 30 pounds since surgery on the 27th. The one of me in the green dress was taken a week before surgery, the one in the tourquoise dress was taken tonight.. 7/14.
  13. At LAST! A great result from your Dr. So pleased for you BBK! Your photos are absolutely gorgoeous! Thanks for the inspiration girl.
  14. Thanks Amsderb! I've been able to walk everyday this week. Wanted to sleep in this morning, but woke up at 5AM. Me and my dogs trekked out at 5:30 AM, and walked our mile in the park. Think it's supposed to be rainy here tomorrow, if it is, gonna work on some upper body stuff with some barbells. Gonna have to check out the rebounder BF1.
  15. HI Bandedgirl all well here. Am supposed to have my first fill next Thursday, the 10th. Have been walking a mile everyday this week. I´ve lost 27 lbs since surgery, and 21 inches since March!
  16. WOW! What beautiful shots BBK!
  17. SeattleLight, you are to doing wonderful! We were banded the same day.
  18. Weighed in today. Down another 5! But the really neat thing is she measured me. Since my first interview with them in March, I have lost .25 inches in my arms, 5.5 inches in my thighs, 2.5 inches in my waist and get this 11 inches in my hips!!!!!! WOW! I was blown away!
  19. I was scheduled for a fill this Thursday, but Dr is on vacation, so have to wait till next Thursday. I know I'm ready for one, cause can eat a LOT it seems, and my tummy growls. Looking forward to seeing how all this works for real. AKgirl, let us know how it goes. We were banded on the same day!
