  1. My weekend was pretty good, I went drunk bowling w/some friends on saturday.... i didn't mean to get drunk its just since the band, my tolerance has went to crap lol. Sunday, I got my taxes done and cleaned the house. This daylight savings time kinda through off my morning. Oh love your new pics!

  2. Nope I started monday on mushies. Very soft mushies, next week I can go to a little bit more lumpy food.

  3. Nope I still don't know :-(. I wish they would hurry already. I think I may call them on my lunch if they don't call me first. They wait is killing me lol. I just want to hurry up and get the liquid part over lol.

  4. Of course we can keep in touch :) thank you for the picture comment! So where are you from? by the way my name is Alcine :)

  5. oh I didn't realize ur surgery was on monday!! Good luck and I will pray for you!!!

  6. Oh I know OMG!! I started my pre-op diet yesterday basically I'm on the Atkins diet so no more rice! I did find a pretty good alternative though, cauliflower! I just put in my food processor so it came out like rice. It was actually pretty good :-) And yes I'm both more excited than nervous though. I can't believe in less than 2 weeks its happening!

  7. Oh ok right after me. My surgery went very well now i'm just trying to get through my monthly gift from nature... i swear this is more painful than the surgery right now. I'm just all uncomfortable. How was yours?

  8. oh thats cool but thanks for writing me back! I can't believe I have 3 weeks left before I'm banded! I'm so excited and nervous.

  9. oh wow that was super quick! Congrats girl!! **Happy Dance** lol

  10. Oh wow yea your schedule is messed up. That's good that they are making sure that your healed before filling you. Have you lost anymore weight?

  11. Oh your fine lol it took me a little to figure it out too :)

  12. OMG i can't believe that have you on liquids for so long. I actually get to start some solids next week. I've lost about 3 more lbs but now i'm just stabilizing i think its with introducing more foods. I cant wait to really start working out, i know that will help more with my weight loss. I'm glad you get to eat real food in a couple days!

  13. omg i know right!! ahhhh!! lol. yea thats what i heard from my insurance too that I may have to stay overnight too but my doc said i won't..we'll see and honestly at this point i don't care... i'm going to be in bandland!! yay!!! what do u have to do for your pre-op?

  14. Omg it hurt so bad!! lol that needle was huge!! i feel a little restriction but i'm still able to eat way more than they said i would. they said about 4 oz... i'm eating at least 6-8oz per serving... how have u been? and thank you!!

  15. OMG!!! Congrats on your transformation!! You look amazing!! I can't wait to look like you. I get banded in 2 weeks and 3 days :)

  16. Personally, I think you will be fine, as long as you feel fine and you're not over eating. When do you go for your post-op appt or did you already have it?

  17. Pretty good..still a little sore but a lot better than monday :)

  18. So are you anxious/excited/nervous about your surgery? I can't wait to have my date but I know as soon as I get it I'm gonna have butterflies lol. Are you on the liquid diet yet?

  19. So I found out my surgery date Feb. 16!! And so the countdown begins!!!

  20. so i had my pre-op testing today so far everything is still good and they told me my time (10:30 am on 2/16) this is all so exciting!! i cant believe just a couple more days!!! hows everything with you?

  21. So I'm officially a bandster!!!! And what a day! I was scheduled at 10:30 was told to be at the hospital at 8:30 didn't actually go under until 1:30 and wasn't released until 6:45 b/c I was so dehydrated I couldn't pee. However, my doc did say I was his best patient today b/c I did really well on my pre-op. He said my liver was so small he didn't even have to move it to put the band on and that saved him an additional 20 mins ( which explains the delay of why I wasn't seen for hours later) I'm in a little pain right now where the port is and i have some gas in my shoulders. All in all though this all so worth it so far! Oh and I lost 9 lbs on my pre-op! I'm feeling very proud of myself. I didn't cry a lot before like I thouht I was. I'll be honest I did tear up when my mother-in-law and hubby had to leave me..But after that i was good. How have you been?

  22. So my 2nd fill was a lot better, definently didn't hurt as bad as the 1st one. I'm not really feeling as much restriction as I thought I would, but I'll really be able to tell when it comes time to eat more solid food. Congrats to you on losing that 4lbs! I do believe you will make it under 230 very soon. It is more difficult since your schedule is very hectic but I still think you can do it. Talk to you soon!

  23. Sure we can! Have you started your pre-op diet? How's it going?

  24. Thank you Debbie for checking up on me. Congrats on your 34lbs!!! I've gained back a couple pounds but I'm noticing a pattern, I gain right before my fill. I get my 2nd fill on tomorrow. I go to the gym with my husband at least twice a week. We try to go more often but by the time we both get off from work we're so tired. I think you're doing great. I told myself I wanted to lose 15lbs by may 5 bringing my down to 207 but it doesn't look like I'm going to make it. I hope that fill kinda jump starts the weightloss again :)

  25. Thank you for the add!
