hi bandster - here is a link to Wasa's reply. http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f17/im-cheating-already-44151/#post608101

what flavor of muscle milk are you drinking? i love Mocha Joe and chocolate / caramel / peanut butter ... good luck with the pre-op. just think how tiny your liver is going to be. it will make it MUCH easier on you for recovery. best of luck to you!

why cant i ever find that "im gunna hurl" smilie when i need it?

oh please dont ... i would miss you horribly... plus, who would i cheer on at the GC marathon??? :eyebrows:

well, have you sneezed in the past 15 days? if you have, sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but yep, you've slipped. i know that for certain cause i am an internet message board user.

back to the whole sitting on couch bon bons ... some (not all) of the newbies just dont get it. "but im too fat to work out." HOGWASH! i was on that flipping treadmill going 2.0 MPH at 390. i lived a sedentary life. how do you think i got up to 402.5 lbs??? after i got banded, i moved my ass and i ate well for about 90% of the time. was i perfect? nope. am i perfect now, nope... am i eating wrong things now. yup. am i losing? nope... who do i have to blame for it? ME. i am not going to go around bitching that i'm not losing weight.

i want to feel like an athlete. that must count for something. you guys amaze the shit out of me.

ok - is it just me or does this look a bit like the Homer Simpson 'strangle'??

well damn, that's no fair. my image is totally shattered ... me too ..!!! but you are out living your life as well... it's a good balance. it feels like i am here lately all the time (with work being OH SO FUN - not)...

yeah, how the hell is he getting those numbers?? i just dont get it.

could have fooled me ... i think you are one of the more eloquent writers on the board and you get your point across well ... i on the other hand, stumble around and maybe, just maybe, get my point across 10 paragraphs (and 10 billion ...'s) later.

work their asses off? WTF? i thought i could sit on the couch and pop bon bons and the weight would just fall off of me ...

unless of course it is day 2 of your post op. then we "oldies" have every right to call you a dumb ass. law: i love Jacqui's ... eat less and yes you have to MOVE that fat ass to make it less fat.

well, that technically can be possible... most times i was not a huge volume eater. at a buffet i would get maybe 2 plates and they were not heaping at all (no food 'overlapped'), but dessert ... umm, yeah. LOTS of good Desserts. a piece of cheesecake, some chocolate cake, maybe some banana pudding ... so not 'a lot' of regular food ... lots of BAD food choices - and not in a small quantity. thanks, i didnt think i was clear ... nowhere near Wheet's post!! congrats on your degree! or the 'experienced' bandster who hasnt really lost squat who says its ok if you cheated, you and your band will be fine. GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! um, you dont know that!

oh dear, i think you may have to loose your band ... () whatever you do, DONT go to Mexico though ... all the quacks are there (another - wasa j/k) :sick

nope, I was just kind of responding to people who were getting ready to respond to my 'sex crazed wackjobs' (nymph-o) comment...

geesh Chickie ... you KNOW there's a search function here, dontcha???!!! http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f18/you-new-do-you-have-questions-come-here-45254/

ok ... love your new av!! DD loves princesses!!

and YES I KNOW A NYMPH IS A MYSTICAL/MYTHOLOGICAL FEMALE!!! btw - i find if very hard to believe that there are NO MEN banded in November

ahhh, nope not going anywhere... not going to let some **totally tongue in cheek** sex-crazed wackjobs drive me off ...

i started a thread - not many views ...

huh??? did i miss some? sorry!! :think

nope... im blaming it on hormones ..

**snort** i have a feeling its not only waistlines that are getting thin. maybe some skin too? in addition - i didnt know that weight loss assisted in reading ability. as in the answers to 90+% of your questions are right in front of your eyes. open them and read. you will learn a lot. granted it may take a few extra minutes to actually search for answers as opposed to having them handed to you on a silver platter, but you have to work for things you really want. i have not seen anyone 'self-proclaim' elite status or whatnot. we're all in the same place. we are trying to lose a great deal of weight. hell, i still have about 90 pounds to go. some people starting out dont have 90 pounds to go and may reach their goal before me even though i've been banded a year +. i also agree with babygrl - people dont necessarily want to hear our answers / advice. they want the justification that eating a nice piece of steak while on mushies or even liquids is fine and that they havent done damage to their band.

or too sensitive ... "QUIT PICKING ON ME" wahhhhhhhhh
