Ok you pass those to me and I will pass you Intentional Counceling and Abnormal Psych and we will exchange notes...lol...

LOL...that happens on the Internet? I thought that was life in general that produced that effect?

Lauren Best place EVER for ribs is in North Carolina, callled Wilber's. When Bill was president, he ate there often. The town got closed down for a 5 mile radius near it. It sucked because he ate there all the freaking time, lol...and I never could when he was there! BTW, shouldn't WE BOTH be studying??? lol...

Welcome to the wonderful world of banding! I am over a year post op and it still is the same way for me! Some days I can't even eta leftovers from a meal the day before! It is just how the bands can be, very very fickle. Full for me is NOT what it was before. My throat gets full really, I no longer feel it is my tummy!

I am so sorry this happen to your wife, but as Wheestin said, it is not common at all. Any surgery has risks, this is no different than any other surgery! Best wishes for a speedy recovery to her.

Lauren I am in the middle of finals as well.. I have 2 tests this week and then 4 FINALS next week, wtf? That shouldn't even be legal. 2 tests from this week are 2 of the same classes I will have finals in next week. I am loosing hair and ready to kill. SO I will freak out with you! I lost about 2 fistfulls of hair this morning in the shower and as I write now more is falling onto my laptop...so freak out sister, it all sucks... I can not wait for break, I need this semester to end...

Why is it that I thought being "skinny" would fix everything? I thought all of my problems with my husband, my family and everyone else was just all about being fat. Why do we think these issues will be fixed once we loose weight? And why do some get even worse? I am having maybe a mid life crisis?? Ugh...and these last few pounds are pissing me off to no end...

Hey Brandi--good for you girl! I am going to live vicariously with your dating! lol.. Steph--be lazy for me too..lol.. I had a breakdown in class yesterday, so no I am not doing well. I am so over all of this. I hate this shit. I was crying in the middle of class. I am on overload. I lost a huge handfull of hair today in the shower...ugh... I am hating the thought of being 31 in a life that is not what I want. I thought being skinny would fix everything, it didn't...ugh... I am seriously depressed, I need help...lol...how come you can have a degree in Psychology and not be able to help yourself?????

GOOD LORD it is getting hot in here! I step away from my girls for just a few days and LOOK at the drama I come back to! LOL... Brandi--OMG, you are such a personality and gorgeous woman I see why he couldn't help but being pulled to your magnetic self! Sorry the Hottie is a SNOTTIE. You think he is a bad husband, umn yeah! lol...good for you not beig THAT kind of girl. Where is your damn Marine when you need him??? BK--that is completely awsome you were asked, quite an honor! Congrats! I am cramming for finals next week, so I maybe AWOL some more my girls. I miss you all terribly. I am enjoying my last days of 30 as wel...soon you will see my age change. FUCK....that is all I have to say about that... :girl_hug:

Hey my Faith2-- It is ok you haven't lost anything, I know you ahve been focused on the things that have really needed your attention! I am glad you are ready to get back to it, it wouldn't work any other way! Sorry no big buck for you baby!

I am still too scared to shop there, what the hell is wrong with me?? lol...I know I am normal now, but still can't manage to go there.

wooo HOOOOO ROCK IT OUT CHICKIE!

LJM, we all have bad times. I know you and I am sure you would agree if you thought about it you are being hard on yourself! You have done a great job, one day is not a reason to beat yourself up. You are trying very very hard. I am sorry you had a bad day, but you are strong enough to get through it. So you choose to go the wrong way to deal with it, get over it and move on! You are worth more than to keep beating yourself up over a mistake!

Right there with you girl...gravity sucks....what a bitch it is...

I felt the same way Cindy. Isn't it sad we can feel so violated and humiliated but scared to speak up at the time? All I wanted was to get out of the middle of the damn airport where everyone could see me being 'felt up'. Why do they have that power over us?

I hate snow, I hate it like nothing else in my life. Makes me wonder why the hell lI live here...lol... My bday is the 7th. I have to be gone all weekend for work for a freaking strategic planning, it will suck. But I won't be able to leave the building so if it snows I won't see it...grrr....

Sorry that happened to you but that says a hell of alot about what kind of people they really are! I think they are selfish, rude and obviously intimidated by you! You should actually feel proud that you are not part of that in crowd. I wo9uld be the woman who's bday it was a card and be sure to point out that you were not there because they didn't invite you.

Steph!!! WOO HOOOO!! I would think that the before is the Mom and your after is her daughter! You look 20+years yuounger hottie!! WOO HOOO!!!! Sweet--let us kow how the bodybugg works out! Claud--thanks I appreciate all of your support. This sucks sometimes. I am doing this for my girls, if it doesn't work I will have nothing to be sorry for! It has been snowing here like crazy, makes me so damn mad. I hate snow. Faith's (my DD) birthday is in 2 days and she is so exicted that she will have snow. I want it GONE for my bday...lol....

Thanks Steph, I actually am going to complain as well. I got the fulo rub down in the middle of the room. Much fun, I did get a bit pissed off and told her to "At least buy me a drink first". Didn't go over so well, but I was upset and embarassed.

I do pinapple juice, but I found that papaya tablets work as well for me, and much easier to carry in your purse! (And no shooting star effect either)

I 100% know why I was fat, and yes I do have issues. I spent my childhood being sexually abused and raped. My teen years I was a stripper to gain control of my body. Then of course after I became a Mom I had to make another career choice, and had to find another way to control my body. Being overweight is a good way to make sure no one hurts you, at least it was for me. So yeah, I have issues, now I have no way to deal with them.

I am sorry, same thing happened to me on the 14th when I flew. I flew last year and had no problems, but now I think I set it off because it is no longer surrounded by fat.

I agree it takes a bit more work to eat right, but so worth it. Even without loosing weight your body will feel a ton better.

I do Thanksgiving at MY house now, with just the DH and the kids. Then I can control what I eat without praying no one is watching. I like it better that way. Xmas is going to be the same!

Thank you sweet, I think, no I know you are exactly right. If I had to make a list of my friends he would not be on it. That is sad. I need to fix that. He told me that he felt alone and he had no one. I think I have shut him out, I know why I am mad, but it really seems stupid in the big picture.
