Ok...well, as I'm having my boyfriend take my after shots, he demands I get into my new swim suit and post pics of them too. I wasn't going to, but telly thinks I should too, and how can I refuse telly, LOL. I told him he better not get much of my thighs in the shots, lol...we will have to wait for another 50 pound before I show them.

Here are my before and afters from the May Challenge. I can't really see a difference, but oh well. And excuse me for the "stains" in my after shots, lol, its just water.

I agree that any surgery is major and should be researched and carefully thought about. And like someone else has already posted he didn't fall sick b/c of the band but b/c of surgery. Having family members in the medical field and my mother who is an Anesthetist, I fully knew the complications and had heard many stories of complications from other wls. But what I also researched was the long term affects and even though when I got the band there wasn't a ton of history on it in the US it still was a major factor for me.

I bought my sauna suit after Telly told me about them awhile back. I agree, I love it! And they really are pretty cheap. I also reccomend the wrist/ankle weights they sell right next to them at walmart. Haha, I have to take my suit off in the shower and it's pretty nasty all the water that comes out.

C 210 (-93 lbs total, -2 this week) I need to get my after pics taken today...although I feel like there won't be a big difference... Great Job everyone! I'm in for the next challenge, I like the month thing too...anyway we could change it up at all...keep it exciting?

You know I have been missing you too Telly! I just haven't been on here enough to realize you hadn't been on either! You know how great and supportive you have been to me and I can't thank you enough. Hope to talk soon girly!

I havent had them either....my boyfriend just raves about them. And his mouth pratically waters when they turn on the "hot now" sign or whatever. I havent had a donut since surgery and just think im going to keep it that way for now.

WOOHOO!!! That is awesome Susan...I know how you feel! I started out at 26 and when I got into 16's, it really made me realize how great I was doing. Did you save a pair of 26's? I found one of mine recently when I was doing a garage sale....I slid them on over my jeans and everyone was amazed on the difference.

Congrats on getting the job you wanted! That's great Skye! Sorry you are feeling so bad Amy! But don't worry about taking a break and eating some of those foods. Do what makes you feel any better right now. I hope you feel better soon! (HUGS)

6ish miles bike riding, MANY Hills, holy cow 30 or so minutes walking on the riverwalk 200 crunches

C 212 (-91 lbs total, -1 this week) I'll take a -1 since I have been bad with eating out and had a 16 hour car ride where I ate munchies. (Don't hit me Telly) Hehe...GREAT JOB EVERYONE!!! I love this group!

Ok, so I'm in Texas....hope everyone is doing great! I'm hoping for a loss tomorrow, but I don't know if it will come. If it doesn't I'm going to blame it on my scale and how much traveling it has done recently, hahaha. I miss you all! **Hugs**

Checking in, 212 here.

While drunk with friends, you fall down a flight of stairs and break your neck. Thinking you've simply passed out, your friends ignore your lifeless body for hours. Hahaha.....such great friends....

Since my banding I have never been able to eat an entire burger. I can't imagine one with the bun and everything. But thats just me. Everyone is dfferent and its ok...I would think you'd need a fill if you are able to eat that though.

Ok, ended up I left a couple pairs of soes up there also. So the shoes and scale went in the mail today and is suppose to be here by Monday before we leave for Tejas. Yippy, no missing weigh in day. Now I need to be working hard to make sure thats a loss! Hope everyone is doing great! Have a good weekend!

Happy Birthday!!! Hope you have a great day with your family and friends and have lots of fun!!

Well....lets hope its safe, I just made one for my Dear Boyfriend. :-) Added some ham and cheese. It came out perfect, he really liked it. And it was so easy!

Telly is doing GREAT!! I'm so proud of you girl!! We will be seeing a Onederland(190) pic soon, I know it!

Thanks Tricia for the advice, and I thought that too, and have her send it down to Texas. But I've been thinking about it and I think I'll just get a new one, I've heard on here about ones that show your body fat or other little health things....so I'll start looking around. I just dont want to get a new one and it shows me at a complete different weight, especially a gain!

I have been staying at my moms house for the past week...I had taken my scale up there to be able to weigh in for the week. I love that scale! Its the one I've been usin forever....so anyways, I left it at mom's...four hours away. I'm pretty mad, it was around 80 bucks, but I'm going to try and find a new on soon. Plus we are leaving for Texas in a couple days, just have to make sure and not leave it there. Anyways, just wanted to complain. And let ya'll know, I may not be able to weigh in for a little while...

So, I have been on the site for awhile and have tried finding a thread for June 2004 bandsters. I see some other bandsters have thier months. With our two year anniversary coming up I'd love to meet some others and see their progress. I am down 90 pounds and know I am probably a slower loser than most. So any one out there? Come in and say hello!

Dang!! I've got 10 more pounds to go and I'll be able to join the club!! I can't wait!

I would say it came close to 18,000 and that is without aftercare. Every visit is about 60 bucks and a fill with flouro is 200 and without is 75. The 18,000 was with some discounts because my mom works in anesthesia and is good friends with the surgeon. This is in Sioux City, IA.
