  1. The devil made me do it.....I made myself a 4 oz. milkshake. man was that good! first 1 I have had since before my pre-op diet. I used to go to Wendy's and get a Frosty at least once a week. 7months without one! :biggrin:
  2. I must have missed something. I'm so confussed:wink_smile:
  3. Manatee, I am sorry you are hurting so much right now. Try to relax and let your body heal. You have been thru major surgeries and a multitude of changes. 1st the LB. Your body had to adjust to having that surgery. Then it had to adjust to a different way of eating. Then came the dreaded excersize. After reaching goal you have plastic surgery. Your body needs a rest. You really do look great! People have a tendicy to look at themselves differently than others do. Please listen to all of us and what we say about your looks. Take care hon. Keep us posted please.
  4. :thumbup:falola, that is a big deal! Pat yourself on the back and dance around! I can't Wait to reach 250. That is my goal for Thanksgiving. I need to start busting my butt! Good luck on the rest of your journey!
  5. Way to go on hitting wonderland ladies! I can't wait till I get there!
  6. Way to go Carla! It is such a great feeling when you try on something and it fits or close to it! I am also a slow loser, I am very happy tho. Keep up the great work.
  7. Andrea, You have lost 49 lbs. You were banded 2 months ago...you have done great! DO NOT compare yourself to others on this board! It will get to you. Everyone loses at different rates. Compared to some I am a slow loser, others I am faster than. Don't let everybodys weight loss make you feel like a failure! This is 49 lbs LOST NOT gained. Good luck.
  8. I get a rash on my chest after every fill. I think it is the barium I have to drink. When I seen your post it was like a light bulb going off. I put 2&2 together and got my answer. It last for about a week for me and itches like crazy. I need to get me some benydril cream.
  9. What I won't miss: Pretty much what was already said, but.. 1) judging chairs when I go somewhere..will it hold me or break? 2) avoiding stairs when at all possible or taking them 1 @ a time. 3) being afraid of falling and needing help getting up 4) asking my dd to cut my toenails when she comes over 5) the oh my goodness looks from people when I go out to eat.
  10. What a boss! What a blessing.
  11. Welcome benito. What a wounderful outlook you have! May God bless you.. Good luck on your journey.
  12. Happy Bandiversary Luluc
  13. Hello and welcome CD. Congrats on your surgery date. Just come and read, learn, ask questions and have fun. Good luck on your journey.
  14. go by what your Dr. said. Not anyone else. This is your healing time.
  15. Solome, so sorry! It must be extremely painful. I will keep you in my prayers for a quick healing and to find out which medicine you had a reaction to.
  16. cobbler is a type of pie..peach cobbler, apple cobbler just to name a couple of them. give me a slice of hot apple cobbler with icecream and I am in bigggg trouble :crying:
  17. The afro banana looks like he is dancing to ZZ Top's "Get High Everbody, Get High" off their Fandango album from the 70's:Banane41:
  18. Wow globally what a difference! Keep up the good work!
  19. I love lima beans. I have only recently heard of lima bean casserole. How do you make it?
  20. Hello Terri and welcome. Awsome weight loss since banding. Just be careful on weighing. A lot of people gain at this point and get dicouraged. So try not to weigh to often. Good luck on your journey.
  21. the other day I posted about me being able to wear some of my rings again. Well I tried on my mothers wedding band today and I can wear it! That meant the world to me cause I haven't worn it in 11 yrs.
