    Pumpkin Spice Latte

    Thank you for sharing, It the spot last night. I thought it was really good!!!!
  2. I'm almost 2 1/2 years out and my original goal was 160, I hit that at about a year and a half out so I lowered my goal to 150 and hit that at my 2 year mark. I'm not an exerciser (Hate to admit it) But I do watch what I eat to this day. I went on maintance and didn;t do to well, I gained 6 lbs so and to go back into the losing stage. I now have 4 more lbs to get back where I was. The one thing I've learned from this experience is it's a life long journey it doesn't end. But I know it's well worth it. Everyone is different what works for one doesn't always work for another and everyone loses at their own pace. For some it just seems to drop off and others fight for every pound. I think how much one loses and how long they will lose is pretty much a one on one basis. Don't worry yourself about it to much just keep following the rules and I bet you get where you want to go. Good luck

    I went to Dr. Rodriquez in Juarez. I was really pleased. I hear alot of good things about Dr. Aceves also. i'm really happy for you. This is the best thing I have ever done for myself. Sometimes it can be tough but well worth it in the long run.

    I'll try to post one I'm really lost on this new forum. OK, 1 month until Christmas and I'm gonna try really hard to get back on track. Had such a bad food day yesterday and the guilt is kicking my butt. I've got to stop giving in. I'm gonna lean on ya'll for support and encouragment and the butt kicking I deserve from time to time.
  7. Yeah, It;s hard for me to go by a cup size because they're behind the mucsle so I really don't get the projection. Shelf bras seem to work much better these days. A D is to small and if I wear a full coverage bra a DD leaves a little pinch room so I stick with a DD shelf, And what the hey they're always sexier then a full coverage anyway so I really don't mind LOL
  8. Well even with the 550's I'm about the same cup size as you, I'm still heavier then you and also broad so I'm wearing a 36 DD. Mine are behind the muscle, maybe that might make a difference on the cup size. Not really sure but I know I do not regret it.
  9. I had 550's put in when I was still over 200lbs and now I'm around the 150 mark they look really big. My daughter always says they're hugh (EEEEK) But of coarse the DH loves um. I just think it's a personal choice. I will add that when I went in I was getting 475's but during the surgery the Dr. decided they needed to be lager to fill them out. She's the pro so I guess she knew what she was doing. I myself Love them, They're the only firm thing on my body now lol

    If you are 2 Years + post-op....

    Well I lost 100% but gained back 6lbs with a failed attempt at maintaining, 2 of which I've gotten rid of and am working on the other 4. I have found losing alittle easier then the maintaining. Just can't seem to find a happy medium.

    will I loose my current friends?

    All I can say is you WILL NOT lose your friends but you will most likely lose those who are not the friends you thought they were. But that's not such a bad thing. At least for me it wasn't, I've gotten rid of the negitive and surround myself with the positive and it's made this journey much better for me.

    I saved up the money and then got my surgery in Mexico, This way I do not have a montly payment. Good thing to because we have a Commercial Plumbing Company and anyone in the Construction field these days seems to be really struggling at least us with small Businesses. I can't afford the Cosmetic surgery I really need now but at least the weight is gone.

    Thx Melisa, I found it. It will surely take some gettin use to. Well i've not done that well at resisting, since yesterday I had 2 peices of pumpkin cheese cake and a small peice of pecan pie (I have got to quit baking) Now comes the blasted beating myself up part. Why do I keep repeating the same behavior? A Christmas goal would be nce, I sure didn't hit the Thanksgiving one. New day tomarrow and a new start. I got the tatoo I was talking about, It's a Butterfly and above it it says Trust Your and under it says journey So maybe when I'm in doubt I can just turn my arm over and remind myself. Hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving

    OH Yes girl, Make sure they take a little out. No reason in the world to be so uncomfortable. Stress is way worse when we're tired from lack of sleep. Hope it goes well for you.

    Well I'm getting back on the band wagon today, I've been really slacking and it shows. So send me some will power if you have any to spare LOL Oh, and a little energy would be nice also. How's everyone else doing?

    I'm good, not gonna weigh until mother nature leaves Because I don't think I'll get an accurate reading. So I'll check in in a couple of days.

    Does ANYONE experience this???

    I hate to be the one to tell you this but your band is new and YOU have to be in charge of portions. You should not be eating more then a 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup at any one sitting. You can stretch your pouch and cause your band to slip in these early stages. Eat smaller portions and alittle more often if nesasary. It takes a long time for a lot of people to reach proper restriction. For me it was about a year and a half before I hit my sweet spot. Just take it slow and follow the rules. It's not always easy but well worth it in the end, It has been said quite often on this forum that slow and steady wins the race. Good luck and best wishes:biggrin:
  21. I don't think they were trying to be rude, I think they were just trying to help. Why so sensitive?

    Yep, that's what happens it seems like. I do the samething, I think I need a fill and then I'll go and get stuck and it shys me off for awhile. Fickle is the right word. I haven't had a fill since Jan.

    Hope all goes well, Let us know how much more if any you got. Do you get yours under fluro? My fill center doesn't have one so I just have to feel it out and sometimes it really confuses me.

    I know what you mean, My daughter inlaw which I love dearly didn't have a second thought to asking me to make all the food for my granddaughters bithday party this past Sat. and also their halloween party later that night for the adults. I sure don't mind helping out but that's a lot of temptation. Later when I was cleaning she caught me licking icing off my fingers from where I wrapped the cake and she proceeded to remind me of how cake was off limits for me. Hummm! guess she didn't think about that when she wanted me to make everything.
