  4. Thanks for the invite. I've joined the "Turkey Trot"
  5. Morning Everyone. The scale said 262. I'm excited. Just look at that BMI. I'm not MORBID anymore. Just plain old obese. Yee Haw.
  6. Jerry, Great Job. Isn't it a great feeling to watch the numbers on the scale go in a different direction for a change??? Keep posting.
  7. Woo Hoo. Nice Job. Can't wait till I hit that number.
  8. Morning All. My friend (?) the scale said 263.5 this am. Hope everyone has wonderful holiday weekend. Be safe.
  9. Morning All. The scale said 265.5 this morning. I'm up a pound!!!
  10. Morning All. Weighed in at 264.5. Went to the Dr. yesterday for my second fill, turned out I didn't need one. I'm still losing and I don't get hungry. So why fix what's not broken. Hope everyone had a good week.
  11. Morning all. Weighed in today at 266. I go for my 2nd fill on Thursday. Not looking forward to all the poking again. Have a wonderful week all!!!
  12. You lost weight after a cruise? Who are you Wonderwoman or what. Hope you had a wonderful time.
  13. Morning Everyone. Weight today is 268.5. Yea. After 3 weeks, I finally lost.
  14. Morning all. I weighed in at 271.5 this AM. Two weeks in a row I'm up .5 lbs. I haven't been as good as I should. JT. Can you believe it's been 16 weeks since our surgery???
  15. I'm confused about fills. I had my first fill (5cc) at the hospital 6 weeks out. I didn't know I was supposed to call the office that same day to schedule my next fill. Now I have to wait until the end of August. I asked what the criteria is for a fill and they said it's automatic every 6-8 weeks for a year and twice the second year. I feel it should be up to me. I have some restriction, I never get hungry and I've lost apprx. 2 lbs a week. I can't afford for him give me .5 every 6 weeks just because he can.
  16. This is a test. I've tried to post a message 3 times today and keep getting booted out.
  17. Morning Everyone. The scale said 271. That can't be right, I'm sure it's wrong!! How many of us have said that??? Oh well, I had a great loss last week and it's the end result right??? Hope everyone has a good week.
  18. Morning all. My weight this morning is 270.5. Down 6.5 this week.
  19. Today is my first post on Friday Weigh In. This week I've lost 6.5 lbs. Woo Hoo. I'm finally able to walk without pain. 4/10 - 9 lbs, 4/17 - 1.5, 4/24 - 3, 5/1 - .5, 5/8 - 2, 5/15 - 1.5, 5/22 - 3, 5/29 - 0, 6/5 - 1, 6/12 - 6.5
  20. I had my first fill on 5/21. When I asked how much he put in he said "alot". I asked again and he said it was unimportant. Asked why he wouldn't tell me and he finally said 4cc. He said it's like putting air in your tires, you don't usually know how much goes in, it's the end result that's important.
  21. Welcome from a former Jerseyite. I lived in Toms River for 60 years. I was banded in Kansas on 4/10/09. Glad to hear you are doing well.
  22. Really Good Protein shake 1 Cup Skim Milk 1 Scoop chocolate Protein Powder 1 tsp vanilla 1 Tbsp Peanut Butter 6 Ice Cubes Blend Tastes like a Reeces Cup
  23. Go to Forum and then food & Nutrition. I've found some good things.
  24. Just have to share. I'm 10 days out and I'm finally feeling pretty good. I still have port pain, but only when I move suddenly. The Dr. said that with everything he had to go through to get the port in there, it's no wonder I have extra pain. I'm so excited. This morning I put on a coat that I couldn't even get close to closing let alone zipping last week. Today I zipped. Yippeeee. I am concerned that I'm not getting in all my calories. Good with protein and liquid. I'm keeping a food journal at myfitnesspal.com. (great place) Glad to hear from everyone.
