Not necessarily food other things:smile2:. Most of all above I see as quite descriptive of you. You are warm hearted strong and reliable. I don't think you are boring AT ALL quite the contrary lol. One of my best friends is a Taurus.

Yes I am interested. Lets talk some more. I didn't see the post. I will bring you some champagne emulsion for you. I'll send you a recipe as well. There is secret LOL.

LOL, It's not supposed to taste nasty. Did you put real champagne in there? I use Champagne emulsion to make my champagne cake and a little bit of champagne. I'm sorry I wasn't there on Sat. I will be in Richmond this Thursday maybe we can meet for coffee on my way back? Let me know.

You ladies can write my goodness, I was away for a few days and had to read over 20 pages. Riley yes we need to have another party soon! I'm game whener you all are. Candra- "Speaking of new bra - Reggie, got my new bra on - never thought I could do one with no underwire but it's working pretty good - lovin it so I gotta get in touch with your sister for some more!" I'm glad it is working for you! Please do call her. Maybe after we all get to or almost reach goal we can have her come and do a Bra Party for us. Donna- Sorry I missed group this weekend, my daughter had Strep and had to take care of her. She's much better now. I miss you all, have a blessed monday. Candra I need the nighty set girlfriend lol. I get my first fill on thursday you guys! I am sssooo happy. Do i have to prep for it? Is there anything that I need to know about before going in? Please let me know.

I will send the info to you tonight.I hope you like chocolate because it comes in chocolate. Hi Jes, Candra, Nicole, Donna, Riley, Heather , Maria, Christine, Candi (where has she been??), Sheena, Pam , Analynn, did i forget anyone?

Tamra, I had protein shakes for the duration of my pre-op diet. They were pretty good! I get them from Costco, I'll give you the info if you'd like when I go home. It is full of protein and 1g of carb. You can also do the EAS advantage protein shake. I can't do cottage cheese either so you are not alone lol.

HI LADIES!!!!!! OMG sorry for not posting earlier. Thanks all for coming on saturday. We had a alot of fun and lots of healthy food. Donna- you are such a gem, ditto on having a bond that some women will die for. Riley- You are too cute and funny. Thanks for the recipe book. When I host again I promise to make the meals from that book . Jes- Thanks for the Cali-lillies, they are truly one of my favorite flowers. I asked my hubby to plant them pronto lol. Nicole- Thanks for the clothing layout! I wish you brought Auds, oh well next time. Tina- The potatoes and cheese was the bomb! I had to hold myself from eating the rest of what was left lol. The jeans look pretty cute too thanks! Heather- You are one beautiful chic girl, your significant other better watch out!!!!! LOL. Truly you and the rest of the ladies are very beautiful. Last but not least my halter sister- Candra- Thanks for the Jeans and the dress you picked out for me:smile2:. I can't be grateful enough for you doing all those dishes. We really have a kindered frienship here ladies and my fervent prayer is that we continue to be friends for a very long time. I missed the ladies who couldn't make, hopefully we can get together again soon. We have to plan some activity. So I bid you all a good night!!!

Tina I just emailed you the address. See you tomorrow.

Hahaha Maria, you are funny, by all means bring the appetite on! You are welcome to bring anything you'd like but no need to :thumbup:. Riley, I'm glad that you're going to make it. I am too excited to have us all together. The only entertainment I have is food and music, so if anyone has any suggestions please bring it on. :thumbup:

Here's the Menu for Saturday: No appetizers (unless I find something that is worth it) Main Course: -Oven grilled either Tilapia or Mahi Mahi with sauce -Grilled Chicken Breast -Sautee Bell Pepper assortment -Mixed Salad -Veggie Loaf (courteousy of Tina) -I will make a small potato dish ( are you all ok with the potatoes as part of the menu?) Dessert: Fruits Please confirm!

Jes congratulations on your promotion! Girl enjoy yourself because this will all halt once you are banded. I don't eat ice cream much I love fried plantains same family with bananas and girl I haven't given up eating that yet, however I eat it in moderation. There somethings that they totally tell you not to eat after band but once you heal, you can eat almost anything in moderation and once every blue moon that's one of the reasons why I got the band versus GB. I need to take my own advice LOL. The good news is that my scale is happy again.

Oh Pam, We will miss you indeed. Donna, i think there will be about seven or eight of us. Nicole, Tamra, Tina, Candra, Jes, Donna,Heather (are you coming?) Maria, Riley(possibly, I'll keep my fingers crossed :-)) and me of course lol. Analynn nice to meet you. We are cool Divas over here! Hey joing us this weekend if you'd like and are able to. Like Donna said before we the "sisterhood of the traveling bands" we ought to write a book lol.

Oh Riley it was good and I'm going to work out like a wild woman tonight to get rid of it. The funny thing is that before surgery, I wasn't a potato chips fan. I find that I am becoming a fan of foods that I didn't care for before. Anyone experiencing that?

Tamra that's what happens when you eat right. I had the same experience today I ate a small bag of potatoe chips and my pouch did not like it at all, i felt sick to my stomach!!!!

Hi Donna, I can't wait, I'm really excited. Please bring whatever you heart desires, I will have plenty for all of us. Nicole- Yeah i cracked up too I was like WTF, I suppose desperate times call for desperate measures LOL. Good night all you LB Divas!!

Good night Jes! Yeah Tina I agree it is rude! The veggie stuff that you mentioned previously sounds good can you bring that? I'll pick up some hummus and other veggies.

okay, Am i tired or did I see someone trying to sell us knock-off purses LMAO!!

Tina, it's at 2:30p.m. I hope you can make it!

Jes TOM is Time Of the Month :-). So when is your surgery?

Congratulations Heather!! Girl you are getting there keep it up. I am very excited about this weekend, i'm still waiting for some menu suggestions. I know there some vegetarians among us. Please send me your suggestions.

Maria the hang out is next weekend August 15th and not this weekend. I am out of town this weekend. :confused: Yes Nicole. Riley, glad you got a fill!! I wouldn't know what that feels like LOL. Menu B: 2 eggs boiled medium sugar-free iced coffee (McDonald's) L: 1/2 cup lean pork chops boiled n ginger and garlic 10 mini multiseed crakers I slice Pepperack cheese D: 1/2 cup stewed beef 2tbs spoon corn meal 2 minature reugela :-(. ( couldn't resist) There no more left YAY!!!! Not too bad!!

Jes Monday should be exciting for you, you get your surgery date! That's is so cool! Truly I am proud of you ladies. It seems like all the girls who have stuck to this group have made it to surgery. Cheers to all your good deeds of support Ladies!!! Have a good weekend.
