TracyinKS

Michelle: You are cracking me up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Uh.... to add to the carb count of 800..... baked chicken nuggets and french fries...... uhhhhh how many carbs made it to my ass BEFORE I pb'd it all into the toilet??? a plethera of carbs (that means shitload) ROLMAO!!!

but.......... nanner nanner nanner.......... no pb's for me.. weeeee (quoting Laura!) LOL

Snow Day Snow Day...... I don't know why! The roads are FINE! Robby is enjoying it though.... I can barely get him inside long enough to get the red out of his cheeks. We are meeting the boys mom and step dad in a little bit..... so boys boys boys all weekend..... I took Robby to get his hair cut and my brows tamed! Diet, what diet?????? Terry I loved that... LOL MY Diet today has been buttered popcorn (Which Cody calls "Tracy Corn") because I load it with REAL butter.... potato soup lemon tart thingy (ok two lemon tart thingy's) dt dr pepper

Schools out... there went my lazy morning of solitude! Lord help me not eat the house today!

OH Suzie............ those sound so bad and so good!

It's me and Robby that do everything.. even taking out the trash.... if I even ask, I get an "OH Gawd" I have however quit hanging up his laundry.... Cody's job is supposed to be dishes but it is a war every night... IRRITATES THE EVERLIVINGCRAP out of me.. I constantly yell that I want my own bathroom.. (we only have ONE in the house) so sharing it with 5 males +SUCKS+ Oh I wish I would of kept my old 1st marriage house........ 3+ bathrooms and 6 acres of land..... built by me! but I didn't .... SO.. I'm BACK FROM LUNCH with Suzanne and Daryl!!!!!! She was my secret santa!!!!!!!! I was so excited when I saw my gift I ended up knocking over her margi on her lap! (I'm such a clutz!) She did a cross stitch of VIOLETS it is sooooo beautiful! AND she got me a very pretty red blouse with a very nice necklace (THANKS JANE for helping her pick it out!) and to top it all off they picked up the tab!!!!!! not to mention she bought all 4 boys a candy filled cane for their stockings!!!!!!! I am so blessed... really I am. From the bottom of my heart............ Thank you Suzanne!

I'm at work! Tracy!!!! my eyebrows need you today! :ohmy: For those that don't know while Tracy and I were having a drunk heart to heart in the pool she kept fixing my eyebrows! LOL I'm sure the onlookers from the bar were like WHAT THE HELL are they doing???? ROFL Michelle: I must of been dreaming of you last night because I woke up about 1 a.m. mad as hell at your doc! LOL......... I wanted so bad to get up and call you.. but for some reason I didn't make it up out from under the covers! OK....... the whole.. you are full in your band is crazy. I think she doesn't really know that they can be overfilled. I have the small (old style) band that holds 4 cc's of Fluid. At my tightest I had 4.25 in my band and my doc told me that he didn't have ANYONE with the small band over 5cc's. The bigger bands can hold upwards of 160cc's (HE LAUGHED when he told me that a bunch of band docs got together at a LAP BAND DOCTORS CONFERENCE and tried to bust one... they STOPPED at 160cc's!!!!!!!! So the fact that she is telling you that you are maxed out is a load of bullcrap. Instead of just putting a tiny bit in... or none at all you need to be firm with her that you want more fill.... What some docs do is fill it super full, have you drink Water..... if you can't swallow they take some out until you can swallow water easily...... I know everyone has different experiences and different doctors have various procedures, but YOU ARE THE BANDED PERSON..... I would call her back and demand a fill before the new year........ if she doesn't give you one.. find another fill doc..... and go there since you will be paying out of pocket anyway........... and you COULD use FLEX dollars to pay for fills. When you can't eat solid food...... is when you are maxed out...... anything else is bullshit..... (not that you should be as tight as that, but you are not maxed out) OK.. off my soap box... aren't you glad I didn't call and wake you up with that rant! :w00t: So anyway............. back down to 182 today......... will try to keep it low carb.... even IF suzanne and I meet for lunch! :cursing:

I seriously don't remember eating brisket...... I just remember the damn kalua coladas that Tracy got me hooked on! Heather... yes it was quite the time..... putting all the online personalities with real people...... hearing their voices is quite freaky.... it was so fun though... and no one turned out to be an ax murderer! LOL The first night we were cutting loose... and several of us ended up TANKED... *it was so fun*

Tonya: THAT IS FANFREAKNTASTIC!!!!!!!!! (not that your in pain, but NO MORE PERIODS and a TT to boot!!!!) if and when I ever need a hysterectomy I'm calling you for your docs info!!!!!!! (and if you think I'm kidding.. I'm totally serious!)

oh pamela........... you walked right into that one! Yes my mind is totally in the gutter!

Pie Hole is much better than yesterday....... Coffee w/creamer 30 oz of water 2 slices of bbq briskett Starting my 2nd 30 oz's of water (I'm full full full, but not pb'ng from the briskett) After this glass of water I'm going to treat myself to a glass of hot tea with splenda

ME TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved her! So many great transformations!!! PHIL looked totally different! and Jerry.. well he made me tear up! drinking my first glass of water, and so far I've had nothing to eat....... guess my band does still work! LOL

Good morning! Laura you are so creative!!! LOVE the wall hangings. :smile2: Terry you are so beautiful! Tracy: LOL!!!!!!!!!!! no coladas today OK? (and no cheesecake for me) Haydee: You and your chubby cheeks boytoy make such a cute couple.... and gawd that hair... I LOVE IT. Pam: WHOOOOOOOOHOOOOOO!!!!! go girl! We had spaghetti last night.. (they had spaghetti, I had brisket) Jenn and Jane I hope you get to feeling better. Kat: My heart goes out to Kinsey... a sucky situation. Suzie: It looks like lunch tomorrow is off, since an ice storm is supposed to hit! bummer Judy: How is the new snow blower??? Did you get the fudge boxed up? Michelle: what are you fixing today? I talked to my mom last night and she had a much much better day. She was able to eat some tomatoe soup and that made her extremely happy. She just emailed me asking about my first fill. My step dad has lost a total of 10 lbs this week! Since going to Denver!!!!!! he is now down 80 lbs doing low carb.........

I'm so on the fence about a fill......... after being too tight to too long.... it's kind of cool to be able to eat, but that thought process also scares me... I just need to make the RIGHT choices.

ohhhhhhhh I don't feel well........... I think I'm in a cheesecake coma. Seriously I think I have the shakes... maybe I'll get lucky and get the runs! :thumbup:

oh and while I'm stuffing my face... a lady comes over to me and tells me how pretty I look today. She said she saw me accross the room and was struck by how pretty I looked today....... also, the two people who know I'm banded looked at me and my plate... and I just winked...... GET ME A FILL!!!!!!!

OMG OMG.............. two pieces of cheesecake..... am I a dumbass or what????????? Seriously........ get this I had NOTHING off the buffet on my plate except some Pork Loin....... ate it too fast, rushed to the bathroom... pb'd it all... and what did I do??????? ATE half the first piece of cheesecake....... but lo and behold the pork loin wasn't all gone yet....... so pb #2 out came the rest of the pork loin and the chocolate cheesecake with cookie crust......... the nuns were still singing....... so I sipped my coffee and smiled.........and ate the rest of my chocolate cheesecake.......... another sister started playing a maramba or something... and they brought out a MINT CHOCHOLATE cheesecake........... and I said what the hay and had a piece of it too............ IS IT ANY WONDER HOW I BALOON to 280 in a blink of an eye??? LOrd.............. but the upside....... that is all I've eaten today! (yes, this is me justifying my dumbass)

LOL Heather! 30 minutes until Christmas lunch........ I've heard the menu is stuffed pork loin, or stuffed chicken....... and cheesecake....... Guess, if I was smart I'd go drink a bunch of water BEFORE lunch!

I guess it would be less sugar than fudge........ but OMG YUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I might have to try it though) and this is coming from a person who has attempted to make EVERYTHING out of pork rinds!!!!!!!!!!!!

I slid into work as it is snowing......... boys school is still IN session and today is the annual Christmas luncheon. Last night we had to go to Nebraska furniture mart and buy a new dryer as my old one shot craps........ It was 18 years old so I think I got my $250.00 out of it! :blushing: My ss gift is scheduled to arrive 12/24........ so you'll have to wait.. nanner nanner nanner. I did have bbq brisket for dinner and a couple bites of mac and cheese. Today so far all I've had is coffee....... but luncheon day is usually topped off with cheesecake! 184 today.. Suzie: I LOVE YOUR SIGNATURE!!! too funny! My mom is bellyaching about her recovery....... she is in the "what the hell have I done to myself stage" I told her it was normal...... oh boy I can't wait til she starts losing.....

Pie Hole report: coffee w/creamer various pieces of cheese drink of milk (to take meds) chex turtle bar.... disguised as a granola bar out to lunch with boss...... baked potatoe soup 3 pcs of candy out of the jar in the next office mug of hot coco not sf. as you can tell I am sucking in the LOW CARB department today!!!!!!!!!!!! I made a brisket for dinner.. it baked all night in the oven and is currently in the fridge waiting for me to slice it.

COLD COLD COLD........... did I say COLD!!! 4 degrees Robby is doing better although he is still having 1 meltdown a day....... he did it over the weekend too, and I think it may be tied to him being hungry but NOT being hungry. The dr was concerned because he lost 4 lbs, and although he is not skin and bones to begin with he can't continue to lose....... I think the teachers are glad, but we are still working on the after school issue, because he is coming down at that time and it gets ugly some days. I try to leave work early enough to get him before he can get kicked out..... I weighed... blech...... 187... time for water water water Denise I meant to say I LOVE YOUR PICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Laura: I love the feeling of kicking and rolling babies in the belly.. it is freaky. Everyone have a great day

Good evening! Suzie didn't mention that she and I sat next to each other yesterday at the support meeting!!!! We are having lunch this Thursday too! Robby was with me at the meeting, and I am proud to say he was a PERFECT angel!!!!!! (total shocker) he quietly colored for TWO HOURS without getting up and interupting the meeting........ yes he was medicated... he has a bad time around 1p so i'm not sure how we can fix it..... Also, I am not proud of what I've consumed this weekend........ white russians are so fattening.... why is that? Milk, Vodka, Kalua.. gotta be the calories from the milk and the Kalua...... but I guess I got my protein in right?????? Anyway..... changing subjects. Mom is home, she is a little upset because she only lost 1 pound.... HAS SHE NOT BEEN LISTENING AT ALL TO ME???? I went into the you are healing from surgery, anything you lose in the first 5 weeks is a bonus! yada yada yada.... my step dad on the other hand lost 5 pounds while in Denver! LOL MEN!!! that means he's lost 75 just by low carbing it! It got cold cold here and now its snowing...... This morning when I put the dog out it was 60 degrees... by 9:00 a.m. I was rushing around having Robby help me clean up the yard and put stuff (bikes, grill, etc) in the garage and whooooooooosh........ the front came in and the temp dropped and has been dropping ever since... Loved the text Laura! OK.. I'm heading off to bed...

You are just in a stall/plateau......... pick ONE thing and change it up... either a different exercise or a different diet...... like if you are doing Low Fat, switch to Low Carb or vice/versa.......

Just talked to my step dad.. mom had a rough night and was up most of it. Her back is hurting and in the hotel room there isn't a recliner. They see the doc at 10:30 a.m. luckily they don't fly home until tomorrow, so she has another day of recouping before she has to go to the airport....... I will feel really bad if she has problems as I feel responsible......... Laura: love the video!!!! cute cute cute
