I like the blue guys but if they don't want to give there all anymore they are only hurting themselves. I think though after the challenge last night that will change, they are there to loose and keep ot lost and they said so. I liked the young boys attitude, I think he will start doing much better even though the last coule of weeks have been pretty good for him. I also think Jillian loves to win as much as Bob and while she likes to say fine its your body I figure she took it easy on them last night but we will see her normal style tonight. Ball busting Jillian at work.

Hang in there Sharon, thats why they call this part "band hell" ((((((((((Sharon)))))))))

Congrats on the fill Colo. Today was my one month released to full diet and exercise just not heavy crunchies but I bough a latin workout for the abs and he was fine with that so tomorrow I will see how pitiful I am at it. I had gained a couple of lbs this past week so my total weight loss sinc4e surgery is 20 lbs he said not to worry for the first 3 months it may seem crazy. Who knows what that means, they are suppose to call to arrange my first fill for next week he wants to do it with contrast he said he can check everything better. If I understood him right hes going to over fill me to let me understand the feeling them put me back to where he really wants me so I am looking forward to that. Then he tols me to stay away from greasy, crunchy, slider foods that make u eat tons of time a day, gave me a pep talk and off I went. LOL so here it goes I guess. Funny part is I'm still not sure what to expect in the near future but since he says my job is to eat right exercise and let him worry about the rest for now I'll go with that

I wouldn't mind having a dancers body and dancing in them:thumbup:

They are usually seen on hookers and dancers(pretty woman) 4-5 inch heel come above the knee usually black but I have seen them in red.............

I'll bite, tell me more, what is it and all

Thank You and the same to you as well, so hows everyone doing? I had my forst REAL PB last night ughhh I will never have to ask what it is again, I thought I had experienced it prior but that was just restriction I think but last night was hell. Now my goal is to see how long I can go without doing that again. Hope everyones doing great :hurray:

Thanks, I had already planned on doing liquids/soup today, even though I did what we considered the most polite feminine getting sick which may be while it lasted 2 hours, I thought the easier I threw up the easier on my band and tummy it would be. I have an appt tomorrow and will mention it then even though I know dumplings aren't on my diet yet and obviously never will be after last night

Yesterday evening I ate chicken for the second time, it was mixed in with chicken and dumplings, I ate slow and I chewed like crazy having learned how important the two were the first time I ate chicken. I knew I had gotten a couple small pieces of dumplings but I was sure they were chewed well as well. Well I didn't do something right. I discovered the efinition of PBing for myself. It wasn't what I'd read about, not only did it feel stuck but it hurt really bad like someone shoved a fist into my chest and to add to it I was sick for over 2 hours with very little luck on bringing much up. What I'd read previously was about the pain getting sick but I hadn't read about both or it pretty much stopping you for over 2 hours. Is this normal? Do I need to mention it to my Dr? I never want to feel that again although it seems the only way around that is baby food and slider foods and I don't want that either. Thanks in advance for your help

I was so sure when I started my journey but once I had a date everything changed. I like to think I'm a control freak as well as suffer from panic and anxiety disorder, so when you talk about taking my control away poof that sets off the panic alarm. I debated and debated back and forth. I wasn't afraid to cancel except I knew why I had chosen this path, my health. I can't tell you it was easy for me at the hospaital, my anti anxiety pill was no match and the versat has never worked for me I'm one of those weird ones that no one believes when I say it doesn't work, but then I'm the one who was awake for my endoscopy and a colonoscopy before that. I have some other things wrong with me that always seem to fascinate the surgical teams and unfortunately cause me more anxiety but this time was a little differant. I had plenty of time once they wheeled me back away from my hubby to panic out but I didn't. I've had many surferues and hated them ALL. I did however feel like my surgeon was the best and this I found some comfort in. Panicky me slid from one table to the next listening and watching while they readied everything, feeling my anxiety rise the timing was perfect, I knew when I was being given the stuff to breathe that I would be in band land soon. Here I am, when I woke up in the OR I wanted out even more, when I got to recovery I was a little less anxious but still wanted out. When I finally got to my room felt even less anxious, my DH was there waiting and I was away from the OR. LOL each step from it even after brought me more at ease, and of course leaving the hospital meant they considered me well enough to get out of Dodge, I did forget to bring a pillow for the ride home. I have to admit that somewhere in the back of my mind knowing I had my anti anxiety pills in my purse and would take them if necessary was comforting. Most of us anxious ones know what to expect from ourselves. I personally won't let it beat me, you obviously need the surgery or wouldn't be here. Don't let panics ugly head keep you from doing whats best for you and your health

You can buy sugar free fudge sickles anywhere and they are only 40 calories. When I was on liquids I got tired of popsicles even though they seemed easier to get my fluids in than just drinking but I did have a sugar free fudge sickle and didn't feel bad about it at all, It made me happy and I considered it my Valentines Day treat

You can see them on ebay as well as the biggest loser store as well as a few other places online such as bodybugg calorie management system not to push any certain store but this one does offer the coupon. Right now I'm trying to find out if the digital display is pretty important, it runs $99 on the TBL site

Now you can continue to inspire and not worry so much about your pics being taken and used. Did you get the display part with your body bugg, I'm wondering how bad its needed or is the extra hundred worth spending. I keep looking at it and have wanted one for so long but things are pretty tight here and I'm still paying off my medical bills

:sneaky::mad2::lol::lol: I love this board!!!!!!!!

Tinas hair and the guinness boobs

Not sure whats worse the big blonde hair or those skin colored basketballs

I have no idea what is considered appropriate for someone my age to wear BUT I know what I intend to wear when I look like her. Tina Turner impressed me when she first turned 50 well I plan on rockin forever once I get there. I spent half my life trying to gain weight and the other half trying to loose. I will appreciate it when I have it again. I won't care if someone thinks my legs are to thin because they like thicker, I won't care if they like bigger boobs, when I hit goal I will reek of confidence - the snob.............well thats the plan anyways

Puddin After reading some of this post I to had to look at your pics, seeing the inspiration you gave to so many others I'd hate to see you take them down. You could Water mark them so that if someone took them they would still have your watermark on them. If you decide to mark them be sure not to do a small corner at top or bottom but right across the whole center where theres differant colors, anyone who would try to color in would be busy for a long time and probably not succeed. I know you give the body bug a lot of credit and then the band, no matter which got you where your at the sharing of your pics has touched so many.

Pukes usually reserved for weeks 1 and 2 usually near a treadmill. What I'd love to see and hear is Lauras face when she watches the episodes of Tara talking her down. Its easy to forget Lauras playing catch up where she was at home for a month, most of the others who were home are weaker as well. I totally get that Tara doesn't want to go home, but would it totally be Lauras fault if she did? The other contestants see Tara as a threat and if she hadn't been winning immunity earlier in the season might of gone by by then. I guess todays my be nice to the under dog day. Laura did loose more last week

Next week I'm seeing a 1 hour episode on Tuesday and part 2 on Wednesday because of the Presidents Address

:tt2::lol::lol::lol: :tt2:

While I know dads had RNY and now this it just doesn't work on me any more, his boys need to loose just as bad as he does if not more than are walking in his steps and the cycle needs to end. I was trying to find some info on him and see how much he lost with RNY but no luck yet. I think the reason I'd want Jillian is when I was younger and thin I manipulated men so easily while women I never really made friends with. My thought process is she'd push and I'd have to prove I was tough enough, thats the appeal as far as a trainer goes. I like Bob but I would want someone I didn't want to be nice to. I know its crazy sounding when I reread it but thats me YIKES :tt2:

When they don't show them eating or even mention it during a 6-8 jour work out it sends the wrong message, when they ran for the keys in that hot sun I never saw any of them drink water. While the eating side might be a little more boring I think they could throw in something each week, not to much of course cause then why would anyone buy the cook books they have out? My turn I guess I love the show even though I know its very unhealty to loose the weigh they do but it does make me wish I could afford Jillian, for some reason I don't think Bob could inspire me the way she could, not just his feminine side, just love the way she doesn't take any crap. I know easier said when shes doing it to someone else. Yellow team bores me Pink team - did u see how mad momm got when daughter fell off balance challenge and "caused: her to fall as well Green team - Tara is a work horse and maybe Lauras gonna show up Brown Team - dad drives me nuts, sons kicking his but to keep them in there dad just cries, if he knew how bad his knew were he had to know they'd effect them as a team Purple team - Kristin kicks but, shes one of the biggest and still hangs tight with them Blue team - hard not to like but when they had immunity and only lost a couple lbs it bothers me, I hear its strategy but grrrr Black team - well since Bob gave the azz chewing for not sending him home he has won a small place in my heart I know zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

WTG Ill.....LOL I think if I wasn't married I'd be scared to start dating, only because if he likes BBW's I have no intention of staying one but I do know theres plenty of men out there who love us internally not just externally, good luck I'm happy for you I'm glad you went in and I'm sure your not the first they've seen so hopefully an easy fix. Seems like our instincts are pretty good at this stuff

I'm envious I miss my Wii Fit I also bought the Core Rhythem dvds to workout to but first he has to release me and my next appts the 24th so until then just walking and oh I did sneak and teach my hubby the electric slide a little bit ago Hehehehe. I use salad size plates but mostly if I'm just having one thing I do the little bowels that I use to call finger bowls lol they hold right around 4 ounces and since I'm still on semi mushies + I seem to eat all 4 ounces of one food right now. Unless you count vegetable soup I don't think I've had a meal that was more than 1 course yet. The list he gave me is really strict but he mentioned I could have chili and some other things that aren't on it so I dabble a bit. Oh I did try some leftover wheat spaghetti I had made for my hubby with melted low fat pepper jack cheese yesterday. That was way more filling then I expected it to be and stayed with me longer than a lot of things do. Hmmm thinking about it is making me wonder if all the leftovers are gone LOL if not I may have it again. If not I need to think of something I'm really bored with soups. Have fun on the Wii I think I'm gonna get on mine just so I can hear what it says about my weight loss. Its always good when you know ahead its a loss and not a gain. Have Fun
