  1. I guess for some people, once is'nt good enough :frown:
  2. Thanks Val...I just joined and it's a very nice site. I can't wait to get the pedometer.. I could use one of those! The last one I had, I lost the same day I bought it! Hmmm bad Karma :smile2: We'll see if this one lasts past a day.
  3. LOL... Vicki, I think Jenn Just said you are full of air! LOL... (sorry Jenn and Vicki) could'nt help that one! :smile2:
  4. AAAWWW thanks Vicki..you're so sweet! I'm glad you're feeling good and back online!
  5. I just got off the phone with Vicki and she's doing really well! She sounds nice and strong...Dr. H. came in the room and told her everything looked good and that she can go home today...she has to make sure she does'nt get a fever. Oh and he said she had moderate scar tissue around her band/stomach which made it a little difficult for him..the surgery took like 3 hours! Anyways she said Heeey to everyone and she'll be online when she can! :thumbup:
  6. Vicki, you will definantly be in our prayers.. you know that Dr. H. will take good care of you so try not to worry..ok.
  7. Vicki, I'm so sorry about your band. Honey, you are grieving your band..it is apart of us, and it would only be natural to grieve it. Maybe after the 2wks of liquid it'll fall back in place?? How are you feeling today?
  8. Wow Vicki... You're only 27lbs from your goal! You're doing real good! You'll probably make that goal by this summer Don't worry about being an anomoly ...its good to be different :wink: Let us know what happens.
  9. Hey Vicki, I'm still here stalking this thread from time to time lol. I'm just trying to get over a cold.:tongue_smilie:
  10. Oh and a glass of white wine..for the anti-oxidents:rolleyes2: Good thing I did burned some of those calories by doing Contra Dancing (like square dancing). It was fun! Only problem with it was too much spinning..I was dizzy as hell afterwards!:ohmy:
  11. I decided to try a more natural approach first before using the antibiotics. I think it's working...I did'nt have any heartburn today. I did stick to more softer foods like turkey stuffing, softly cooked string beans, a little mac&cheese and cranberry sauce....um and brownies and a little pie for dessert:blink::ohmy:
  12. Hey Vicki, I was having heartburn all lastnight too. I think it was the chef salad I had for lunch and the broccoli soup I had for dinner. I think I may have to do semi soft for a bit until my stomach heals.. I am trying a natural suppliment thats suppose to kill H-pylori called. Mastica (also called mastic gum), it comes in capsule form and I 4 a day. I've only been taking it for about a week and half and it seems to be working. Oh and I also take peptobismal to help coat my stomach..anyways if you keep having the heartburn try prilosec and the peptobismal. That'll "probably" help.
  13. Vicki, how wonderful! Congrats to you!:frown: Sounds like you're finally past your plateau!
  14. Vampires.......
  15. Hi Maria, My appt was for tomorrow but I had to change it to March 23rd . I hope you're able to get your fill tomorrow. Sorry about your breakup ..atleast he waited until after your surgery to hit you with that bad news.
  16. Weed :glare::biggrin::wub:
  17. funny! :bored:
  18. Goodnews! I don't think I have to do another scope...just a breath test to make sure the H-Pylori is gone. :thumbup:
