Hey Allie!

Of course I have a long way yet to go and a lot more weight to lose yet, but I also want to have a tummy tuck, the thighs and underarms, and boob lift. Did you do one thing at the time? And did you do your boobs first or last? You look amazing, just wondering if you could give me some pointers. What size jeans are you wearing now?

sorry that is www.thegoldendayz.blogspot.com

Hi! And thanks for the comments. Guess What? Our meeting was called off due to bad weather!!! But~~~I found a site today with lots of good info about LOW CARB dieting and how to get the lbs going down again and Fast. Check out my blog tomorrow at www.blogspot.com/thegoldendayz

You are so right Xavier, that blasted scale is just glass and metal! I would kick it, but it would hurt! LOL It is still moving in the right direction, so I can be thankful for that I guess. Thanks for your encouragement, keep it coming! I am with you Best money I ever spent... I love the band too.

Thanks Dec Diva! I seem to have gotten to my sweet spot. But I have been off track a little eating out way to many times a week. The wrong things, but very little of them, but I am going down slower now, but still moving in the right direction. I enjoy hearing from you, you keep me believing in myself, I need your support, you are so sweet.

Wow! Congrats, I know that dreaded scale, I have come to have a love/hate relationship with it! LOL Great news. I was happy about the 250 mark and then the 200 was so good. I am still 197.6 most days and some days 198.2, it just won't move down any lower right now. So I think I have hit a hard plateau. I am determined to shake this body up a bit tho! Instead of counting carbs this week, I am going to switch to calories instead and still keep the protein going in to see if that won't work. The added exercise I am getting may be building a lot of muscle and that weighs more than fat, and looks better on too, so I'll keep on keepin on! 6 Months, Whew, I did not believe I would ever get this far when I first started and lose this much weight! I fear I will GAIN! My worst nightmare!

And it is for life too, I will always be searching for information, help and support. Even when I reach goal, I will continue to live with the band and need all the support I can get! Being smaller is so wonderful! My husband is satisfied that I have lost all the weight I need to at 64 lbs., But not me! I want that 100 lbs gone, so I will stay here reading being encouraged and helped by others honesty and experience with the band, until I gain the knowledge to live the rest of my life with it. Welcome!

Hey I have started a blog The Golden Dayz at blogspot.com seems to be the thing to do now, be my first follower?

You are so right Mechelle! I get so hung up when the scales don't move! I want to blame myself, but the body is a funny thing, sometimes it has a mind of its own, I am not giving in or up this time. I am going to increase my activity level this week to see if I can push more weight off!

Hi Subie66! Glad to have you as a friend here on LBT! Love this site, it helps me so much. I look forward to logging on at nite.

Your welcome, you have inspired me to start to work on a Blog too. It looks like such a great project!

Just visited and joined THE SWEET SPOT! Love your blog. Very nice and I always enjoy your blogs, you should be a comedian, too funny and so true. I took art for three years and I just love the cute sketches you ad to the blog. I too love bargains and bought myself some crops for next summer in a PRINT (which I never wore before) They were $2.70 LEE Brand! I think I will like them.

Have a great time at the show! Are you buying or selling? I think I would like to have an RV that you can pull behind the truck. We want to do some traveling soon.

Hi I wanted to recommend a great tasting shake. Whey Protein had 52 g of protein and it is the Wal-Mart Body Fortress Mix. About $13.00 per container. I have a shake in the AM and one at night too. I have not lost my hair or my eyebrows thank God! We do have to have the drinks. Strawberry and Chocolate are good and you can mix them together for a diff taste. They just came out with Cookies and Creme! I have to get some, sounds wonderful and this one does not taste Chalky to me, EAS did.

You will do great too! I still look at all the photos of those who started before me and my goodness they look slim. See I still see myself as fat! It is a hard thing to change the mind, but you can't change the body if you don't change the mind. I have a long way to go, but now I am enjoying the journey getting there! Keep us all posted

Good Friday Morning! TGIF! I found the dress, may go back next week and buy it! I will post pics too! I sorta hit a Plateau, eating right, just not going down much, but I think I have done ok, so I just hold on right now and wait, gonna add some exercise in the weekend now that the rain has stopped here. We have roads that are flooded over! It is depressing when you get that much rain and I can't go anywhere do anything, I want to sit, watch TV and eat! So got to get moving to get those lbs to go away! Sunshine is out today. Love your Blogs, keep them coming and I am going to check out your new page too.

Meant to say Munch on too much! I have a beautiful Black Dress I bought for my cruise last NOV. Let me know and I'll send it to you!

Good Morning, TGIF! I almost dread the weekends because I don't lose weight over the weekends, too much time on my hands and with all the rain, I sit in and much on too much! I have hit a Plateau with a loss of 64 lbs. now, but I know I will get that going soon, gonna try real hard this weekend to be more active! I found a cute red dress at Beall's yesterday, but did not have time to try it on, I am going to wait a week and then go back, if it is still there I am getting it! Clothes are so expensive! We own a Consignment Store, so I have been really buying all my clothes there! So how are you doing since the fill? Can you feel the restriction? I hope all is going good with you. I knew the weight loss would slow down a little at some point with me, and it is not really healthy to lose and avg of 10-12 lbs every month, but I really want that goal by Valentines, so I am going to add a little bit more exercise to kick my body into fat burning again.

Meeting went well today with Allergan and my Dr. looks like some local TV, photo shoot and some on the road work! It may pan out after all, best of all they want the Journey Photos at all the during stages, every two months till goal. Looks like I HAVE to make this work now, Lots of folks depending on me, INCLUDING ME!

Hi hope all is well! This week is flying by, had a cold last week, did not eat enough and have not dropped a pound, but I think my body knows I have a cold, and not letting me drop. When I get back to the Gym tomorrow I think I shall see the diff this week, hope you have a good week too!

Yes, we have always wanted the Alaska Cruise, and my Brother in law and sister just celebrated an Anniversary and he has a birthday in May. So this is the year we go! I bought some hiking boots and I am going to start breaking them in now! I feel so much better and now I can really do some of my "Bucket List" LOL Have a great day!

Our Church took an offering for Haiti last Sunday. I am so hurt for over 200,000 lives are gone. But grateful that they are still rescuing people and lots of children even today! They have a long road ahead of them!

I had my meeting today witht he Allergan Rep and it went well. He is very nice. There may be a new future for me here, so pray for me. Not real sure of myself, and I still feel so fat! I know I look better and I have lost 64 lbs since starting, but I have got to work on changing the way I see Me!

Going on a cruise to Alaska this May and I wondered you mentioned Vancouver, where are you from. by the way you are looking great, you look so different from your pre photos.

Hi! I love your pic with your dog! Is it a Bichon? I have a Bichon Frise, he is 4 1/2 years old, and just a terrific little Man. Louie! He is my side kick, keeps my feet warm. Lol!

Wow you do look great! How much have you lost? What day in July did you get your band?
