  1. Wheetsin: of course you can chime in! Anytime. I get the headache after only a few bites. I certainly haven't gotten to the point where I "feel full" nor where I should have eaten enough. Know what I mean? In other words, I still have more on plate that I should be eating....I only eat maybe 1/4 cup (if that) before it kicks in. That is why I have trouble believing it is my personal "full signal"....cause there is no way I am only supposed to eat THAT little!!!
  2. Nothing intelligent to say Mandi? Yet you can write letters to Leprechauns and even get replies back??!!!! *snorts*. I must therefore beg to differ; I am pretty sure that you sometimes have something intelligent to share.....ummm... I actually haven't seeeeeen it but I've heard from others that you can pull out all the stops at times!!! hehe.
  3. I'll pop in once in a while. I'm kinda like a bad penny that keeps turnin' up! Okay... Yoda's Yuk Yuk today: Is shrimp come over on shrimp boats, where do crabs come from? (The Captain's dinghy!!!) HYUK HYUK!! :girl_hug: :grouphug:
  4. Hey Jude *hums* So happy to hear about your mom doing better!! Now....how about YOU? hmmmmm??? I hope you are taking care of you too!!!
  5. Hey Swanny...you're big day is just around the corner now!!! I hope you are feeling better and that cold has gone away! I hope you have an uneventful surgery day...and as they say: see ya in bandland!
  6. Hi Lila!~! Keep up the good work!!! You'll soon be banded. I remember them yogurt days; in some ways I miss 'em...never had much of a worry about what to eat next!!! LOL. You're doin' great!
  7. You slay me Neenagh!!!! I read your post last night about your hubby and as I laid in bed I was telling the story to Mr Yoad; he howled at the "spraying Pam in the tub" part!!! Tooooo funny. eeep I hope I didn't give Mr Yoda any ideas about the Pam!!! Really though, thanks for the laugh last nigh!!!! heheeh... oh yeah and YAY YOU!!!! You are banded!!!!! *doin' happy snoopy dance*
  8. a little late...but welcome to bandland Green!!!! :clap2: Sounds like you are doing well; keep it up! I also like Ensure (chocolate!); that is my Breakfast...I have it with Protein powder (more chocolate) mixed in for that extra zip of protein; sometimes I'll also blend in a bananna.
  9. Hey Maria...you are doing well for a leprechaun!! 40 years married!!! YOWZERS!!! Congrats! I'll be hitting the 5 year mark in a couple of months!!! LOL I guess I'm a newbie in your eyes, eh? Yay for you not getting stuck! I've slimed a few times but not for long. Also had a crushing pain in my chest twice but it only lasted about 2 mins each time (thank GOD cause I thought I was gonna die!). Anyhoooo.....yay you on your progress!
  10. Kewl....Cloe, I knew you weren't just another pretty face!!! Neato idea about the post-its!!! Thanks. BTW...keep an eye on the heartburn thing (or whatever it is!). Maybe your husband put draino in your drink? LOL
  11. BTW Loriely, I also loooove aquafit; haven't done it in awhile though. But I may start up again in the fall or Jan (time permitting). Good for you doing it! Are you draggin' the Mr. Loriely along with you? and...hey...how come there is no Loriely thread? hmmmmm??
  12. Hey Argon & Green...wellllll, you know what they say about having big feet, doncha??!! *snickers*. oh wait......ummm....errrr....wrong gender!!!!! :rolleyes
  13. TLBC (Toronto); about a 2 hr drive away (to downtown)
  14. Hi Leila....I too am sorry to hear about the fibroid issue. I also have fibroid problems but so far nothing that will need surgery...I just keep having follow up ultrasounds done to check for size increases (in fact, I have another one this Fri). All the best to you...nice to see you keeping your sense of humour! But, do take care!
  15. Hey fellow Canucks! :canada: :canada: I thought I'd turn to ya for a question I have. This is mainly directed at those who are already banded and have been eating "regular food" for awhile now. So, here is the thing....I've noticed that every time (for the last couple of weeks) when I eat dinner (this doesn't happen at breaky or lunch; just dinner)....I get a headache when I'm about half way done. Just out of the blue...WHAM...headache. Nothing severe; just irritating. Doesn't matter what I have for dinner....it seems to happen. It goes away after a bit and it doesn't get bad enough to take something for it or anything. I just find it odd and am wondering if this has happened to anyone else. Comments? By the way...y'all are doing awesome!!! :clap2: :clap2:
  16. :canada: :canada: :canada: *peeks in* *waves* hey all.... I read some posts in the Canuck thread over the wknd and feel sort of caught up. Glad to hear you are all doing so well!!! Yeeehaaa!!! Congrats to those of you who recently got banded....take good care of yourselves over the next couple of weeks. Jude...you hang in there! As you may have figured out, I'm not on here much anymore (too much going on in "life" ...nothing bad....just life!!!). But I think of many of you often and am wishing you all the best and great success. I'll stop by and say "hi" every once in a while! Keep up the good work everyone!!! :biggrin1:
  17. Yeah, sometimes we have to go thru the duds to get to the soulmates!! Tis all worth it in the end though!!!! LIVE LOVE LAUGH
  18. LOL I see, here we go again. Check how little I"ve replied to all those threads again why doncha AND what the contents as (not once taking a side). Too funny really. *noticing the date of joining the site was today*. gee, I wonder who THIS could be. GROW UP PEOPLE & u should all be ashamed of yourselves.
  19. Yes everyone is welcome but it would be nice if the crap stopped continually being brought up. And how is that a cheap shot? Maybe no.name doesn't realize he doesn't even have a band.
  20. Poor Dan!!! If he only knew!!! First she brings him a cookie from TO as a pressie then she gets up in the middle of the night and eats his icecream!!!! (ooops, did I say that out loud?) *giggles*.....don't worry Mandi, we've likely all done it....if not icecream, somethin' else!! (chip dip for me!).
  21. Hiya Kattie.....don't be blue! (I know, I know....what do I know!). Is he going to school far? Is this the first time he has left the coop? You prob see him at TGiving though right....just a month away!!!! Cheer up!!! :faint:
  22. *eargery awaiting next lesson on sheep farmin'*
  23. Careful Cloe...buried in Helluva Dip....ya just might wind up "down below"!!! LOL......ah, who am I kiddin' that's where you'll end up anyways!!! LOL..... Round carrots? Those are actually what the rabbits poop out after they eat too many of the regular carrots. (I know this to be true 'cause Mr. Yoda told me it was so!).
  24. That's kewl Leila; hope it works out for you! I have family in Chilliwack!
  25. Hey Jude.....all the best to you, your mom and your family. Just try and also take care of yourself too. I understand you aren't (can't) put yourself first right now...and that is why you are unable to go to TO (for a possible de-fill).....so plse just try and ensure you get as much nutrient enriched and Protein enriched fluids in ya. (((((hugz)))))) and get enough sleep. Keep your strength.
