  1. Wow... I posted a thread about this a month or so ago... no matter how u put it people are still going to talk, and watch u... In my mind if i were to tell the loosers where i work not to offer me doughnuts they are going to do it anyway... people bought doughnuts 2x's last week and i looked, sniffed and walkd away...lol... let them do what they do it's just going to make u stronger.. don't put any more focus on yourself act as if it dosen't bother u one bit.. NEVER LET THEM SEE U SWEAT.....
  2. Wow this is great.... U have come a long way...How many fills have u had thus far?
  3. Hey Nancy.. we were banded on the same day and heyyy i will get my fill the same day also... Mine came with a fill so I can honestly say I am not nearly eating as much as i use to eat, and even when i want to over eat I can't... I know i need this but when something is reallllllyyyy good your brain just says keep on eating keep on eating.. but now my stomach is like dumb ass if u keep eating your are going to be in pain...lol.. so i stop before i get to that poing... but it is a day to day struggle... let me know how your fill goes on thursday...
  4. I believe that is it... but I would do it anyway....
  5. U all don't know how much better I feel.. I am up to 5-now.. I mean full movements....lol.. I know it's TMI.. but what a relief....lol...
  6. see u have to think about it like this... I am about 276 right now.. but i was heavier when i tried it.. and that person was about 250 or so.. so it it took all of that it's pretty good.. see u are going to squat but u are not going to have to go as low becasue of the ball...
  7. Yes mamm it is.... and froggi trust me it will not burst....
  8. my tounge was coated, but i just kept brushing it like 3-4x a day.. That can turn into thrush like baby's get.. so keep brushing your tounge and it will go away...
  9. Read my blog... I felt like hell on wheels... with a 3-year old to take care of by myself... when i say everyday gets better it does trust me....

    It's not being immature.. It's almost like writing in your diary and u don't want people to look in it... There is nothing wrong with that... somethings should be kept private, but thats how they can learn more about us as well... If u want to know about how and why men run game on women just ask another guy they will tell it all... lol..:incazzato:
  11. This is so so true also...:incazzato:
  12. U know what... I am a pro at finding new and exciting new positions...lol... even tho i am abstaning from any activity until i meet that right one...lol..hmmm anyhoo... get a excersise ball make sure it is filled properly have him to lay, or sit on the ball and then u get on top and u dont have the stress on your thighs and he will be like OH MY GOSH.... i would say try it and see how u like it but that might be too much info...lol... trust me the ball won't burst and u will be able to bounce also... lol....
  13. Now before I was banded I would take fiber pills every day or over other day, and my bowel movements were like clock work.. Now since I was banded i stopped taking them because i read somewhere that said that u should not eat foods high in fiber or something.. so i kinda figured that the fiber pills would get stuck.. but I know my stomach is bloated due to me not having the proper eliminations... Now last night i went to the drug store and bought some metamucil fiber pills and i took them last night before I went to bed and i must say I have had about 4 bowel movements already and I have only been up for 2 1/2 hours... I feel so much better... One thing I will say is that u have to tweek somethings, everything is not for everyone... but what i do know is FIBER IS FOR ME:thumbup::incazzato:....LOL... does anyone else take fiber?

    Well it really dosen't bother me that they come in and read the post.. prehaps that will help them in their relationships with their wives, or girlfriends... that's just like how some of the chicks visit the guy's only room and even make suggestions to them...lol... it's ok their just guys....
  15. Honey congrats on the amt. of weight that u did loose.. U have to realize that most people get more than 3-fills in a year after time goes on the fill evaporates over that much time... Make an appointment and go get another fill... U can do this u already have the tool inside u just have to reactivate it... :incazzato:
  16. Baby.... I wish i were there with u... One thing that I will say is that don't be angry because u over did it a little, that was better than going over and stooping to their level.... Trust me... See most kids are taught better by their parents, however when they are around their friends they act like they have no home training and really show how childish they are... That took a lot on your part not to snap off.... Just like u said U are a grown azz woman and kids should stay in their place... But u r ok...Now see that other side of me would have started the nervous twitch and i would have started talking loud or starring them down saying i'm going to beat the shit out of u like your momma should have done a long time ago... I would have kept looking at them and saying are u ready to get your azz kicked...how r your fries? would u like to come over and sit with me or wow I really like that shirt u have on... start acting crazy and they will be like damn lets go that chick is crazy...lol.....
  17. lol... too funny.. but u know I use to do the same exact thing.... and it seemed like it wouldnt move, but when i went to my Dr's apt once a month i was down like 15 to 23lbs... so i was always shocked....
  18. Well I had to do a week.. and I actually started like 3-weeks prior to even being told... but one thing i can say is that it did help me with the hunger factor later.... so I was use to eating well drinking my meals so it wasen't so bad... But The Dr. knows best... U are not hat theavy anyway that u would need to do a pre-op anyway.....
  19. You know it is carbonated... so if u do get it open it and then shake it and wait until it is flat and then drink it... because once u get banded u shouldn't be drinking carbonated drinks.....
  20. LOL..... Yolur husband seems cool....
  21. That is exactly what u need to do is to drop your calorie intake and also how long are u working out for and what r u doing when u excercise?
  22. I'm glad u r feeling better... One thursday at work I wanted to eat one of the biggest hershey chocolate bars w/almonds 1/2 lb.. open a bottle of diet pepsi, and buy some cigg's. and put like 4-of them in my mouth and light and smoke away all at one time and i don't even smoke...lol.... Things can be so stressful and the first thing I and so use to doing is running to food because it use to make me feel better... Now I just face the issues head on, and that is so hard to do.... But this too shall pass....
  23. this is fantastic.... Now I can't ever say I remember being 150lbs in my adult life.... What size clothing are u n? How are u feeling today... I hope better...
  24. U know this is the exact way I feel. After a few bites of anything i am so done... I also had a fill when the band was put in but i don't know how much was put in.. I will find out at my apt. on thursday and then find out if he is going to give me another fill as well.. sounds like u are doing pretty good..
  25. u know actually I am just doing the elliptical trainer right now for an hour a day. I was going to do it for 4-days a week but i have actually pushed it up to 6-days a week because if i take too many days off i will start to get lazy... and i figure if i eat everyday i can do some sort of working out that i know aint gonna kill me...lol... but now on tomorrow I am going to start my arm weights and that is to firm the lovely skin under my sexy arms....lol... uhhhh i hate that crap... but the best part about it is that I know it can be toned.... but I am going to wait on the leg presses, and squats for about 2-more weeks and put that into my workout as well...
