  1. YEAH JOHN! I sometimes wonder why Doc Who is in this department - he seems to think we can all do it on our own anyway LOL. But you're getting sleeved - woo hoo~ 1200 cal diet here we come! Monique - I don't think they will let kids come to the support group - well, depending on age. so after I was sqeezed in to see The Doc she said let me see if Robin has anything available and I told her that I was told I didn't HAVE to meet with her so i'd rather not - she said fine! OK Heather - no snacking for me either today! Jes - I would probably risk it all for some taco bell right now but I'm too lazy to go get it LOL. I had edamame & cauliflower for din din - just so tired of chicken & eggs! didn't do well with water today!
  2. Go Monique - so happy for you - yes I did call and got squeezed in on Jan 21 @ 10:30 am - at first I was told it was full - if you protest you can get in easier :rolleyes2: Not seeing Robin. Maria - 160 is so reachable for you! Lee - you got less than 10lbs to go too don't you? Wow so many new bandsters on the rise! This is the best group ever. Now, if we could just get an update from Sir John... ?
  3. Tamra - It's probably my deoderant - I use dove cucumber melon - love that stuff - oh, but I was wearing britney spears midnight fantasy that day - I don't care what none of ya'll say - I love Britt! She is an emotional train wreck just like me :rolleyes2:
  4. Way to go my exercise queens LOL
  5. Go girlie - Ok, so 3 to get the ball rolling - so doable this week - I will say a prayer to the scale gods for you! You too Tamra! I can tell how dedicated you are now and I KNOW you won't fall off again - slip ups are nothing as long as you jump right back on. So do we have lap band triplets now? Cole, Tam & Pat? Lee how far do you have to go - Quads perhaps?? Ok Monique & John - what's happinin????
  6. All I can say this morning is "Thank God for small favors!" I finally summond up the nerve to step on the scale this morning - 186.4 - whew - so all the crud I ate over the holidays and whatever weight I gained is now gone + .4lbs LOL Monique - that is so crummy but again.... at least you didn't have to meet with Robin - can't wait to hear what Doc Who has to say. Did you catch that John - no Robin today - woo hoo - hope all goes well - I know you're probably sittin at Kaiser right now waiting for her LOL. Tamra - no mcdonalds today - we are all on the wagon LOL Jes - gumbo sounds so good right now - lemme know what Dr. Oz is talking about - I feel like he never seems to give straight up answers but I like him. Hey Maria - good to hear you're feeling better - you need to sit down with your fam and work out a free day for us girls to get together - we need to see you! NICOLIE - DOES THAT MEAN YOU ONLY HAVE 2LBS TO GO???? ooohweee. Nicole - I was expecting to see you on this morning! Where are you?
  7. I am so tired but I just can't sleep - for the last two nights I got about 3hrs per! So, there is some real truth to this cravings thing - I want a cinabon really bad right now - out of nowhere and it's because I'm so tired!
  8. GOOD LUCK TOMORROW JOHN! I will be tuning in all day waiting to hear the outcome! Be firm with Doc Who! Bridezilla is too crazy - I can't watch it because I get way too annoyed with those women Monique - I, too, took the no frills way - Cloud 9 wedding chapel in Tahoe with about 15 people total! The total cost - including the room & dress was under $1,000.00 and we had a blast! We were already living together for 3 years so.... I really just want to know when the whole institute of marriage became such a show out - like just showing off for people! What happened to romance and intimacy?? Oh, Bridezilla aka: Hitler has never worn her body magic and has decided to sell it - any takers - it's a size 34 & it's the strapless one so it's beige color (the only color it comes it) Jes - I will make that call tomorrow
  9. welcome Nicolie - did u look at all the recipes olisted on the right hand side - lots a good stuff but not all low cal. K, it's like 4:30 am & i can't sleep as usual. been up for bout an hour - ugh!! guess i'll play sudoku
  10. Analynn & Babysista - get your booties back on this bandwagon!!!!!!!
  11. Hey Nicole - so glad to see you're back - gets lonely around here sometimes without you :smile2: I FB you - your new holiday pics are beautiful - little auds is growing already - you will have that itty bitty bit of weight back off in no time! Candy - walk was fun and motivating as usual! sure wish you had come!!! Pammie - I'm so down to roll out - Saturdays are alwasy best for me too but can do Friday's too. Watching pride & prejudice, chillin in bed - my cat is eating cream cheese - what a weirdo! Here is the link for the low carb recipes: The Lighter Side of Low-Carb: Low Carb Spanish Rice. Oh so Nice I got it saved in my favorites so i can jump on in a hurry LOL
  12. Thinking about getting the flirtygirlfit workout dvd - anybody got an extra stripper pole I can borrow?? AMAZING what sells these days LOL
  13. to post a picture you can't do the quick reply - you have to click on the "post reply" button - beneath the message box there is a button that says "manage attachements" click on that the find your pic & click upload - then close that screen and hit submit reply - piece of cake LOL
  14. Oh, Lee - missed you -we did have a blast! Donna - I hope all is well?? Missed so much today :smile2: Monique - I was absolutely fabulous to meet you - you're a gem. Pat - Great to finally meet you! Hope you now have a complete understanding of bridezilla. LOL Nicollie - had fun today - lets try to get together again in a couple weeks - next saturday I'm going to a "holiday" party in the city - who holds a holiday party after they are all over - HMMM but after that! Can't wait to see you in your new SMALLER favorite jeans! Pammie - your daughter is so sweet and completely adorable! Riley - love the clothes - HOWEVER - the slacks give me "camel toe" TMI??? But - I can't believe I got them on and ziped up - could even still breat a bit - AND THEY ARE A 12! - must run big LOL Thank you ma'am!!! Jes - love the jeans - Oh, and the overalls - I was just telling everybody how my husband made me give away my size 4X overalls LOL These are a little snug on the lower belly so not quite there yet - but I got into them and they don't have a single X on the tag - woo hoooooooooo! Tamra - enjoy my shirt see you Wednesday!!
  15. Woo Hoo - Hot mamma! Jes - seriously - you look so good - what a difference 35lbs makes is us ladies. I have now just been inspired again to channel my inner skinny chick and EXERCISE
  16. Morning all - and happy new decade! I will be there tomorrow too - for sure! Tina - you can have the 14's as I am still mostly 16 and when you get to 12 you can pass the 14's on over - Now, about Mr. Wrong - sounds to me like he's upset that you lost the weight and are succeeding in life because he isn't so he felt it necessary to call you and try to bring you down to his level to make himself feel better. As you have progressed - he has regressed - seriously from alcoholic to Heroine! No self respecting hot 19 year old redhead is really gonna be with an IV drug user so my bet is that, while she may be 19 and redheaded, she is a junky too and not real hot - just my experience with the loosers daddy use to hang out with LMAO So I want to see you again so what's up?? Can't you and Michaela come out tomorrow? Tell her I promise not to flash my stomech! Riley - I have learned that i can't do this crap on my own - so many times I have lost this weight and so many times I have found it again - I have learned that support is necessary to succeed in all walks of life so here I am - with my super support group making things happen once and for all! My husband is a cereal junky - he had a bowl last night right before he had a bowl of pasta - why, oh why, doesn't he ever gain weight??? One more thing i had learned in 2009 that I get to hold against men! Tamra - I will stand in front of you so when you're pushed I'm pushed hahaha - I NEED IT TOO. I'm a super duper slacker - because I lose the weight so slow it gets frustrating and I give up - it's not as easy as it was when I was your age LOL So glad you're coming tomorrow! Niclolie - You rock - i love your spirit and the "i can do anything" attitude - Bring on the bebe - but she may not like that bumpy trail ride LOL How are those almonds??? I'm an addict - i think my issue is that I'm just so very lazy and as a lazy gal Almonds are really the only no carb food you can just grab and not have to cook! JES - Im so glad you had a good time - when reading your post and you said "malibu rum" which, by the way i find very yummy - my first thought was "so much damn sugar" but what the hell, that's why we did band and not RNY and you are rocking the size 12 leather pants so what the heck do I know! I mean - I'm not losing a friggin pound and you are so maybe, just maybe - I need to start livin it up with some steak, lobster and malibu rum - do you have a spare room?? Monique - Can't wait to meet you FINALLY! Oh, how I miss clam chowder in a bread bowl - friggin carbs! Speaking of which - I had zero for two days but then this morning - at 12:01 am I drank a glass of champagne - GRRR! But who can really resist champagne in bed with a bang??? happy new year to me, happy new year to me... Happy new year for Candra - happy new year to me hahahahahaha Donna - where are you my love? want to be sure you are coming tomorrow - don't make me call your house and wake everybody up at the crack of dawn tomorrow just to get your little butt over here! Any word from Pat? Would love to meet her/you Pat - will you come tomorrow? Lee - are you coming? Pammie - I want to see Alvin & the gang! We watched the ball drop too - what is the deal with Dick? How much plastic surgery do you think he's had because the man is like 180 years old without a wrinkle or sag - I need his skin cream! See you tomorrow girlfriend -
  17. Nighty Night Tamra! Maria - you feel sexy cuz you are sexy !!!!! Quentin is a bit too weird for me but the hubby loves him - pulp fiction is one of my husbands favorite movies too. I love period films - nice & calm! go see avatar tomorrow - i loved it. Nicolie - forget the movie and play poker - you know the version where somebody winds up with no clothes - playing for money in this day is out of the question LOL.
  18. We're about to watch inglorious bastards - but if I had it my way I'd be watching a jane austen movie LOL. What type of movies do you guys like?
  19. Hey KHReady2Go - yes, there are still meetings there - it's the 4th Saturday of every month at 11. Tamra - enjoy tonight but commit tomorrow~

  21. Tina - you're missin out on the Tofu! where are you and what are you doing for the New Year - be sure to wish Michaela a happy new year too! Pammie - we just need to get out and do things - you will have no problem meeting somebody if you just get out and be seen - Think of the things you're into and that's where you need to go to find your perfect mate :biggrin: I met mine in his livingroom LOL I was just giving a friend a ride to see her BFwho just happened to be his roomie -

  25. That's right Tamra - stop now! I'll be there Wednesday if anybody else is going Jes - I got dibbs on the 14's & 16's unless anybody else needs some! Riley - My NE reso is to get financially stable - well - I have savings but my hubby is a wreck with money so it's to get "US" financially stable too Maria - avatar is a great movie - gotta see it in IMAX 3D - the colors are wonderful - enjoy Nicollie - I will try to be more positive
