  1. Yeah. I'm not feeling my dr. and he isn't filling me. In fact I have only had one fill from him, his pa has done the other two...and I don't care for her much. I want to find a new place to get it done. Wow, 8. How often do you go?
  2. Turn off the tv babe, and go for a walk. It will make you feel so much better.
  3. Kjeter "I'm not in a race to finish this" That is my new favorite statement. Who cares how FAST it comes off, as long as it's coming off. Thanks.
  4. Actually they are not friendly, there are maybe two ladies there that are super sweet and caring, but the rest kind of bother me. I'm not found of Merriman either, but I DO Think he is a talented, experienced surgeon, with a LOT of experience with the lapband. I have actually been trying to find a better, cheaper place for my fills.
  5. I think that is a good idea. You look fantastic, healthy, and happy. I think 15 more lbs is more than enough. You are beautiful girl.
  6. I wanted to send you some encouragement and ask you to call your Dr. and tell him of the issues your having. Maybe see if he would suggest a nutrionalist. I wish you the best and hope you get your issues taking care of. Just keep swimming.
  7. I know my lapband will work better if I work with it better...I have been doing some soul searching and I think that I have been self defeating. Maybe I'm scared of success because with success comes such a drastic change? I think that is why I started smoking again. I really can't work out when I'm smoking. I quit three days ago, again. I am going to walk today and going to the gym tomorrow. I'm determined to not sabotage myself anymore.
  8. I drink when I eat, but it's a habit I'm really working on breaking. The hour thing is even harder, but I am determined to do it.
  9. I'm not near my halfway point. Hoping to get there asap
  10. Another one to get it shaking in here.
  11. How happy are you with your band?
  12. Those all sound yummy. I like to take the prepacked imitation crab meat and wrap a peice of low fat motzerella or gouda around it. I also like a plum Or an apple with a little Peanut Butter.
  13. Hi. How are you? Sorry it took so long to reply. I'm Tara.
  14. I'm so happy for you, congrats. You look so happy.
  15. Thats what I've been missing
  16. :thumbup: I have finally broke that it. for a month maybe more my scale woud get to 287 then go back up to 290 then 291 then 287. it has been very aggravating...but Today, this morning, it said 285. Sooooo Yay. And I go for my fill today. Finally my third fill and I neeeeeeed it! Just wanted to share. I'm not halfway there like you guys, but I am getting there as soon as I can.
  17. Okay Queenie. I'll Pm you and we will talk more. Thanks. I think this will be good for both of us. I gots to get to 50 before August 20th and this morning the stupid scale went up a lb. But I got to get myself to gym.
  18. Tangarine? Yeah, I love that movie too, and her character is just perfect.
  19. I found it on "Funny or Die" but unfortunately my work comp. has no speakers so I will have to wait till I get home to enjoy it.
  20. Oh I haven't seen that. What happens?
  21. Have you guys seen the "celeb" type commercial. Where Obama is compared with Brittany Spears and Paris Hilton? Wow.
  22. Welcome Back Plain!
  23. Wow! You go Megan. I cancelled my last fill because I was broke, and rescheduled for the 20th. My lapband sixth month anniversary is Feb 27th and I want to be 50 lbs down by this time. I have seven lbs to lose. So I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna do it without a fill. I'm with you. I needed some motivation. Thank you for posting this.:thumbup:
  24. Hey Queenie, Do you want to be my long distance interweb exerciese buddy? :thumbup:
