Welcome White06. I am at 12 on the Valentine's goal. I didn't make the 15, but I am happy anyway. I am all for the 10 by Easter. Let's do it.

Susan, I go to school too. The classes that I am taking now are half online and half on Saturday's. ALL DAY SATURDAY!! They are longgggg days, let me tell you. But luckily each class only has three meetings. This semester I am only taking 2 classes. I have been killing myself taking a full load. I am enjoying this time to get going with my exercise. I know it is the key to help me get this weight off in a reasonable amount of time. I hope you have a great day!!

WooHoo Veronica!!!!!!!

That was quick Richard. I just did it like 3 or 4 minutes ago. lol

Mine is different this time too. I usually lose the middle first. Not this time. I have lost everywhere, but less in the middle. It kinda sucks, but what can you do?!

Good morning everyone. I hope you all have a great week!!!

Wow, losingjusme and Chrispy...... what a difference. You guys look great!!!!!!!! I haven't taken any pics. I know I need to. Welcome back Shirley. I am glad you are doing well. I am all for the 10 pounds by Easter. I will shoot for 11 so that it will put me under 200. WooHoo. I will believe it when I see it. That will be too cool!

Well, it doesn't look like I am going to meet my challenge for the Valentine's Day deal, but that is ok. I am still happy with what I have lost so far. You don't lose weight when you drink two VERY large margaritas. lol. But that is ok, I enjoyed them! I hope everyone has a great day today. TGIF!!!!!!!

If you didn't get any more information from them than that, I would reconsider your choice of doc. I went to Mexico and had my surgery and I was almost overwelmed with information. I am in the Dallas area too and flew to San Antonio and the patient coordinator picked us up and took us to Acuna. Anyway..... you need to be more informed than that. Good luck to you!!!!

Thanks for sharing. I am glad they were ok.

Jessica, At least I have been working out this week. That helps offset the pigout day. I am going to meet some other bandsters tonight at a Mexican restaurant. I am having at least one margarita! If they are good, I am having 2. lol. I will get back on the lap band wagon tomorrow.

That is not even funny. Wow.

I am right there with you guys. Yesterday I ate an ice cream cone, sun chips with dip, a few spoons of fat free cool whip, went and worked out and came home and ate more sun chips with dip and more cool whip. Oh and I had some sourcream and onion potato chips. So healthy, huh? I know it isn't real bad, but I feel like a pig.

OMG!!!!!!!! Amazing:faint: :omg: Puddin, you look fabulous!!!!!!!!

I am sure it is also so they don't get in the way. Just like they have you talk off all jewelry. They don't want equipment or anything else to snag on something that shouldn't be there to start with. And yea, I laughed out load at Wheetsin's answer too. :-)
