Congratulations, good for you! Isn't it damn nice you don't have to do the "Ask of Shame" as I call it, you know calling over the skinny a$$ flight attendant so she can call over the pa that you need an extender?? Keep up the great work!

Hey my ladies-- I had the greatest NVS today, which I need more than anything. David is going to send me to the funny farm. Anyways, went shopping at the resale shop. I had sold $60 there so I got to do some shopping without spending $$ which I love. Well I found this cute purple top that I just loved. I was just a medium, but I figured it would fit soon, so I got it along with a few other M tops that I had to have. Well I got home and they all fit--and look smoking on me! NO JOKE! So I wore the purple one out today and got many looks and stares. I kept wondering why and never really thougt about it. Well at the gorgery store I was bent over and felt something, you know that someone is watching me look I looked over my shoulder and there was a guy checking out the ole caboose! I was embarassed and turned red, he laughed and told me I shouldn't be embarassed at all and he wasn't sorry he got caught. Then I stood up and he came closer and tried to chat me up. Well I told him that I was married, (but my ring was not on because I had just dropped off to be sized down) he said where is the ring? I told him it was being sized and said goodbye. He told me to look him up if "things changed for me"!! LOL...I was shocked. I can not remeber the last time I was hit on like that, but I will have to say ti was the first time ever in a grocery store! It feels so damn good to be that girl in the gorcery store! lol.... I should wear jeans and tight tops more often!

Spouse unfaithful AFTER your Lap-Band?
See green, this is why I love you! :car: Hugs. I could not have said it better in any way myself, and I thank you for saying what is in your heart unpopular or not. I agree with you, entirely. No one ever knows the real reason people cheat, not even the cheater themselves.

Hey Nikki DO NOT sweat about your weight girlie! You have 2 to think of now! SO your weight should be the last think of right now! You will do great. Remember the rules we learned about portion control and what is good and not good to eat. Even though youi are pregnant, it is not the time to reach for the junk food. If the baby wants it, tell them they have to wait to eat until they are old anough on their own to chew it! :car:

No, he went away for a week up north with his friends. He is on medication, and refuses counceling, so I think life is gonna suck until I leave him. Everything is always always my fault. He makes me hate myself,which I shouldn't be!

A question regarding restriction?
My Dr told me that bread was a no no as I go on being banded. The problem with bread is even if you take small tiny bites the gluten in the bread will cause it to expand and cause a lot of problems. You should really be avoiding bread if you want to avoid the pain. Also for me restriction is in my throat. I know I am full when I feel it up there, it is my esophogus telling me that I am done. Then I never have that yucky pouch full feeling if I listen to it! Good luck!

Has Your Weight Loss Affected Your Marraige / Relationship?
He is an a##hole plain and simple. He was mad because it was going to be 2 hours and I didn't tell him that. He had tv to watch! No he isn't a pothead, he is a tv addcit as far as I am concerned.

Has Your Weight Loss Affected Your Marraige / Relationship?
He is unaware there is a problem, and blames alot on me. He is becoming pretty emotionally abusive. I went to the er last week with possible appendix they were schedualing surgery and he got mad at me and left me there alone. I am so close to the edge I am afraid if I stay I will loose me.

On the road ideas???
You can never go wrong with protien bars. You can eat them just like a candy bar. They are good for you, keep hunger away and keep your blood sugar up! Other things: 1. pretzels 2. Fruit roll ups. lol...I am drawing a blank other than that. We went through Bertha, and another one in NC so I KNOW what you are going through! Good luck!

Has Your Weight Loss Affected Your Marraige / Relationship?
Ok Maria, I will lay my experiece out on the table.... I married very young at 17, and was very small. After the birth of our 2 girls I gained a ton of weight, and it hurt our relationship. Now since I have lost the weight, our marriage has completely changed. I have self esteem and confidence now and he does his best to knock it down, and hurt me. I am ready to walk if changes aren't made. Now I know that I deserve better. Next month is our 13th anniversary and I am ready to call it all off. So I am thinking I will be another marraige that bites the dust after surgery. But everything happens for a reason, and I need a change in my life. Good luck.
