OH MY GOSH, tina you and these nachos, now i want cheese and cheese its... oh crap what is gonna keep me from getting them:(

OMG, i just went back to thread number 1 on here.. and i learned something from nov 4 - dec 7 i LOST 31.5 lbs! WHY cant i do that again!!!!! Tina and christine you two were with me there too you should go read page 1 and 2.. We have all changed a lot its soo amazing!

Tina i bet you will be down tomorrow, something weired about an increase of cals i tend to go down after... I have a nausious im hungry feeling, thats when i can tell the diff between head and tummy hunger..

Tina i feel the same way today.. maybe its the weather??? I just cant get full. I ignored it for awhile till i had watermelon, i literally JUST had dinner and i feel like i didnt eat anything. Maybe this is something to do with the band, fluctuates???

I am soo excited about my party this Saturday I am looking forward to seeing some of you there! Let me know if you didnt get the evite.. it has all the info to make life a LOT easier:D WOW Riley you go girl i wish i could walk 15 miles without stressin. Thats a lot of miles.

Well i did ok today i guess, didnt feel to hot today and kinda bored... B: 1/4 c egg beater, 1/3 c potatoes, 5 cheeze its 100 cal L: 1/2 c spagetti squash, 2 tbsp red sauce, sprinkle cheese 70 cals S: 2 c watermelon 96 cals D: 3/4 of Left Over Chicken, 1/4 OG Breadstick 380 cals E: c25k & 30 min walk Hope everyone did better then me:D

Btw girls we are totally bummed right now, we still haven't heard back from ASAP. How long does it take to make an offer letter??? I am so stressed. I never called on the vet job cause i thought we were no matter what moving, now i would feel like a moron calling. I figure ill wait to get a job till he does.. too much stress at once. Im so irritated i just would like to know whats going on with my life!

Hi and welcome to the bandster life:D First off do not try to start loosing weight yet. They will weigh you on the 14 and that is the "starting" weight.. from that point hit the 1200 cal diet, to be honest it is easy just follow the huge list of stuff. In reality its a LOT of food... Since you have been reading the board you see what post op life is like.. way less cals then preop... After you start the orientation and first couple appts as long as you loose the weight you can be in surgery in Oct or nov. Some girls actually had it done within 2 months, but it is rare. All depends on the luckiness of appt dates. Just do what a lot of hte girls did and call for cancelations, i wasnt a big caller so it went slower, but still i was in surgery 4 months later, coulda been 3 but i had a vegas trip... You should come to the lunch date on Friday! We would loooove to have you!

Anyone know what time her fill was???

Donnnnna: how did ur fill go????? Im so proud of you! Reggie so are you look at those stats girle! When you get your fill its just gonna get yo ugoing even more!

I updated my siggy too.. i took out the current weight since i dont update it often...

Tina our fill is on the same day:D I hope to be down 5 lbs by then, so i got 4 more to go... we will see..

REggie what was the apt for???? Fill???

Ok so i think i need a nap.. i slept 5 hrs last night.. too much anxiety.. Well today im hungry after eating my bfast at 10:30 so im having lunch here in a few min. BUT i think that is just stress or something, cause i can feel my band again. I drank a lot of water to get osme down before i cant for an hour lol, and well, i could feel it going thru the band, i havent felt that in like FOREVER. But im having a low cal lunch spagetti squash with 2 tbsp red sauce and some cheese sprinkled on top... not bad and will hold me over.. i hope till dinner, if not im gonna take a nap to maybe get my body restored.. i also did the c25k this am.. And Riley you are smart for doing it at 5am! Cause i go at 9 and yeah i like the cool air, but i could imagine how nice it would be even earlier.. too bad i cant get my arse outa bed that early consecutively....

Riley, i bet you sure had fun though! This is why we got banded andnot rny so we can have these occasional fun days:D Everyone raise your water bottles, this is to a day of no snacking and making the RIGHT food choices:D

Tina is right it is like a 10 lb difference once you hit 16 hence why im irritated with clothes.. You are doing so great!

Aww Heather, it will happen i think it took me about 35 before i saw a size difference... You will see it soon. Also try other brands.. i notice a size in one is super duper tight and in another super duper loose..

Heather! Thanks im headed to CL now:D AND i agree, when i hurt my knee and had to take a week off that turned into like 3 weeks... where i sparatically worked out. I find if i make sure to do SOMETHING everyday i stay addicted.. and look forward to it.

oh and ive been to OSF.... i had their spinach and cheese rav personally i didnt like it its with the red sauce and its the same reason i dont like spagetti im just not a big red sauce girl.... If anyone sees a jogging stroller i REALLY need one:D

Hi Ladies!!!:tongue_smilie: Well lets see her woke up at 10 so i did miss Breakfast, or i guess i had a brunch instead... Here is my lineup.... B: 1/4 c SW egg beater, 1/2 lc cheese, 1/3 c Orienda Potatoes 110cal L: none had B at 10:30... D: Parmesan chicken one breast 1 c salad 1 bread stick(600 or so cals) S: Frozen yogurt... 120 cal We went to olive garden, and i loooove their parmesan chicken the prob is it comes with two pieces of chicken and about a cup of spagetti all for 1000 calories, so since i just had one piece of chicken gave auds the spagetters and have the other for tomorrow im calcalting around 350 for the chicken. Then salad with no ranch. But i did have a full bread stick....... Then on the way home there was a new Brain Freeze yogurt so we stopped. Well then we went too the lake and my heart monitor says i burned 800 cals!!! I walked around the lake 4 times, jogged once.. So i burned my delish dinner. And i have found out you really need to pick where you walk, cause when we walk at home after 1.5 i am bored... so wanna stop, at the lake i can go around over and over and over again. So everyone pray tonight i realllly wanna know tomorrow i dont want this guy to be lazy about getting back to us. Also would u guys think its ok for mike to call him??? Or will that look to needy?

Tina:) Have fun, Christine have fun! Ok now Tina, 3 tacos oh well yummmy thankfully you didnt PB!!! Girl log! IF you join us in posting on here it will keep you more on track, since weve been doing that i have gone down! Meaning... THE scale IS MOVING AGAIN! It took 9 days to get back to 188, after the fill i gained 4 lbs somehow... well i got back down and then down another lb:D I am gonna post daily:D It also keeps me more honest because i know you girls love me and would jump me if i ate a bunch of Sh*t.. lol What i do is keep a notepad and just put the date then the BLD and what i ate.. then i copy and paste to here.. Here is something else, I have noticed since i stoped turbo workouts im loosing again, so maybe with turbo workouts you need more cals??? We are going to the Sportsmans in roseville today, oh lucky me lol.. Have fun everyone!

Crazy! It has to be newer then we think cause some of the girls "Jess, Candra, candy" etc on our other board aren't having to take this class and they started the process like 6 weeks ago.. they are also very new to this whole process. I think most of them have just had the orientation and dr appt with the surgeon... But Liz said it is a new class to help weed people out before orientation, since orientation was huggggge:D Thats another thing it has to be less then a month old cause liz, robin and dr baggs told us at our fill last week that its a new step. You will do fine im sure, and maybe since they should eb teaching you everything there that they do in orientation maybe that will make orientation shorter and easier:) You will do great im sure:D

Oh that was a fun stage.... good thing is your not hungry in the begining.. For liquids i did a lot of cream Soups.. my theory was if its more liquified then yogurt im good. So i did do egg drop soup and purify it.. and other soups. For Mushies, life is getting better.. i took chili and mushed it.. VERY GOOD with some cheese on top. I made some crock pot chicken all day long (my fav recipe) then put it in the processor, again looks nasty but tastes the same... I bought a lot of the chunky soups and just mushed them to be honest. A lot of people do refried Beans and cheese.

Candra it soo is working:D You look HOT!!! :smile2: Seriously. So tonight is day 2 of her new bed and we had no issues going to bed she walked us in there climbed in we tucked her in and walked out, and she quietly went to sleep.... maybe i did this just in time??? Time will tell:D As for her experience with the forth of july well.. mommy and daddy bought her some really cool 19.99 pack of fireworks, and we are the most UNCOOL people in the universe lol. We lit them only a couple she went oooh over but more just watched and then with the neighbors shes pointing babbling etc.. lol she liked their show wayyyy better. Then daddy did some sparklers and she said "lemme do it" ya right! It was a nice forth relaxing:D Then wewatched some really cool fireworks show on tv lol. Hope you all had fun!

Im not sure, shes being a pill today. She opened the oven while i was cooking!!!!!!! (scared the crap out of me!) We bought a lil family pack of fireworks that we are going to set off for her and some sparklers. I am sure she will think they are cool and fight us to want to touch them good thing we got the cheap kit so they wont last long lol...:smile2:
