You are doing great! Best wishes. imaluckydog

What a great feeling and I can so relate. Best wishes. imaluckydog

You are honest! Now let it go! The Brownie itself is not bad your friend was so was sweet to offer up her home made Goodness she could have kept them for herself. But it is what happens to us after the fact. You will feel better being honest with her that you had one and let her now how good it was. You do not have to share how it made you feel after. Sugar sets me off as well, well more like chocolate is my passion. I try and fit something like chocolate or a good ol brownie into my plan. Makes me feel normal. Look how well you have done on this journey of ours. Keep it up and glad you could enjoy one brownie and did not eat them all like I may have done. Have a great day and Best wishes imaluckydog

You are still healing I had lumps for a long time and I was sore too. It takes a long time to heal the insides. Go easy on yourself and take the time to heal. Best wishes imaluckydog

Keep up the excellent work. I love your positive attitude. This is so so important on this journey. Keep the head in a positive light. Helps keep the food in its place. I love your energy too. My one year is coming up on June 29th and I have not got to the big 100 goal yet either. If I do not make it it will not be the end of the world. As everyday is first day of the rest of my happy LB life. I am enjoying it to the max. Best wishes. imaluckydog

Best wishes it will all happen before you know it. I was banded almost a year ago and I went from and size 24 plus to I just bought size 12 pants and shorts. OMG I am a new person. I love my band. Have a great journey mine has been great. imaluckydog

Blogging is so helpful and always helps me to keep my paws out of he cookie jar. Best wishes imluckydog

I am confused by this? I was banded June 29, 2009, and I have lost 97 pounds. I did not even try to lose. It just fell of while I was sleeping. I recently had to have two un fills because my band just became tight on its own. No one knows why. I do feel much better and I sure can eat a lot more. I have a little more head hunger but try not to eat too much. I am eating real food, not too much, and mostly plants with some protein first. I would try to switch up your food and eat less of it and maybe exercise more to get your body to lose if that is what you really want. Best wishes imaluckydog

Best wishes take time to heal. You are doing great. Yes some days will be harder than others, just wear a smile as the scale is going in the best direction. Have a great day. imaluckydog

OMG I have been there and done that!! LOL Yes this band has more control than I do. I can not eat anything too spicy any more I started getting acid reflux. I ended up having 2 un fills in less than three weeks. I am at a very sweet spot now and I am enjoying meals so much more. I also need to stick to a real schedule and not skip meals. Best wishes Imaluckydog

Best wishes I love my band too. It has been a great journey. imaluckydog

Best wishes to you. I have had a SMILE on my face since last June 29 th the day I was banded. I am coming up to the one year mark and it has been a wonderful Happy weight loss journey. I have lost 97 pounds. I would like to lose 100 but my body has been holding on and I have been the same for almost four weeks. I am not complaining do not get me wrong. It is my own head that wants to lose more. I look great, feel great and I am as happy as I have ever been. I went from a size 24 plus over 250 pounds and I now wear a size 12 yippeee. I shop at all the stores and can find clothes that fit now. Tons of Luck to you and keep blogging it has always helped me keep my paws out of the cookie jar. imaluckydog

Eat crackers, I have not had much luck with bread. I can eat the crusty part that is it. I do much better with crackers and they crunch when ya chew. I can only eat about 4. Best wishes imaluckydog

What a thrill. Congrats. I am so close only 3 pounds to go. So very proud of you and I love my band so much. Best wishes imaluckydog

I have been banded 10 months now. I had two un fills in the past few weeks. I had been banded for 9 months and started having acid reflux at night. I just got off spicy foods and whatever I thought was giving me reflux. Well, it turns out my band got tighter on its own. Go figure? I had a small amount taken out and was nervous about that. I still had the acid reflux and it was getting worse no matter what I ate. Wake up coughing and spitting yuk! I had another barium swallow and sure enough I was still too tight. My Dr. got aggressive and took out a cc of fluid. I felt it release at once and have had a few good nights sleep now. I am all for getting some taken out you can always get more put back in. I hope you feel better soon. Best wishes imaluckydog

Just keep blogging. You are safe here. It is all a journey. Best wishes imaluckydog

You have a great attitude. It is what you need on this journey that is for sure. I need to keep busy and Happy. Love your pink font. Best wishes on your journey. imaluckydog

Keeping you in my thoughts. Take time to heal and go easy, move slowly and drink fluids. It will take a few days to feel yourself again, be patient. If you can get up and do some walking if you can. Thinking of you Best wishes. imaluckydog

I could not fit in a ride seat so my children and husband went without me. I had to walk across and wait for them. It was so unpleasant. I cried on the inside cuz I did not want my children to see me in pain. Good luck on your journey. Mine has been amazing. I was banded June 29 2009 almost one year coming up. I have lost and never to return 97 pounds as of the past four weeks. I have not lost any more yet. I would love to lose 100 pounds and I will be happier. I am very HAPPY do not misunderstand, how could I not be happy I am in a size 14 down from 24 plus on a good day. Keep blogging and Best wishes on your journey. imaluckydog

OMG I was driving once on a highway 60 + miles and hour and slimming started. I knew I was going lose it (it all UP) I had a little plastic baggy you know the zip kind. I just pulled off and sure enough up and out and I was fine. I never travel with out a plastic baggy in my purse, car, glove box, book bag. When you need one you have one. Boy did I feel batter after that. Best wishes and thanks for the reminders to chew chew chew. imaluckydog

What a GREAT feeing. Thanks for sharing. I have been at my sweet spot for a while now. A new thing just started acid reflux at night time while I am sleeping. I may need to have a little more taken out. My sweet spot may be just a little too sweet. LOL. You are doing just great thanks for sharing. imaluckydog

I am PROUD of you too! That takes GUTS.... I love that Jassy stuff too. Have a great day and feel better. Best wishes, imaluckydog

Wow that was a TRIP!!! I never much like France either. Funny I am just now getting around to reading "My Life in France" by Julia Child. She does make it sound like a different place back in the day! Not Today that is for sure. I stay in the good ol US of A. Tomorrow is another day and I know you will be feeling much better. I am under the weather a little today now that I think about it. I am just going to take the day off. Welcome home and there really is no place like HOME. Best wishes and Thanks for sharing.
