Beckit---You are such a trooper!!! Glad to hear from you, although, if I had had surgery today--I don't think I would be on the computer. I'm such a baby....But at any rate--glad to know that you are on the road to recovery!! Be blessed....

looking Good!!!!!!

I see that many people tell how many oz of meat you eat. Do you REALLY weigh your food or are you giving "guestimations"? I have started working 10 hour days and discovered that i am a "grazer/snacker'----100 calorie packs are NOT my friend....Chocolate covered almonds--NOT my friend!!! I went today and bought trail mix and yoguart covered almonds....Don't know how healthy that is--but at least it's fiber!!! today-- b-choc pb Protein shake l-camplbell's cup o chili s-snack cherrios, 2 raspberries, 1/2 kit kat d-left over chinese food (about 3 tbspoons)

Yes they are!! I eat cajun pumpkin seeds on my salads.

wombat--hope you get to feeling better!!! maybe take an old-fashioned remedy...a hot todie (tea with a shot of Jack Daniels)--get under the covers and sweat it out.

Wombat---Congrats on the weight loss--You are such an inspiration!!! SUZZZIE--best of luck to you and WW....I hope it works for you. I think that its great that you are determined to do what ever it takes. It's also good that you have support and accountability in your family. Also--where is Stef???? I know you know!!! Lucy---it is GREAT to have you back. Congrats on the weight loss. I wanted to be in the 180s by bandiversary...currently at 193.....but for some reason I've gone into sabatoge mode (lots of sweets and 100 calorie packs) I need an intervention!!!

Happy Bandiversary Hunter's mom!!! Keep up the good work!!!

I really can't...I just tried and slipped upon it. Try doing an advance search...I'm sure someone has posted it before

Lucy... I'm so glad to have you check in!!!! Hopefully with this new fill you will start to see results. Stay with us and get all of the encouragement that you need...we're here for ya!!! Glad to hear from you!!! I will be looking for your next posts. Love ya!!!

I've posted these before, but now I'm trying to learn to resize....I want to be ready on June 18th.

I will be posting on June 18th--thanks wombat!!!!...and yes this time i plan on revealing my face!!!! oooooohhhhhhh

Toni, I am ssssssoooooo glad that you posted!!! Keep posting. Here's my advice (for what it's worth). You're completely unfilled, so go and make an appointment for a small fill. Start all over and start off slowly. Make this a new beginning!!! Take time while you are there to tell the doctor about challenges of the band over the last year. Ask for a small fill and to see the nutrionist. Make that day the first day again... YOU CAN DO IT!!!! I KNOW YOU CAN!!! KEEP POSTING AND LET US ENCOURAGE ONE ANOTHER....LIKE WE USE TO IN THE BEGINNING!!! Love you and hope you back for good!!!!:thumbup::drool:

June2007 Banders: One year ago, we started this journey together. Some of us are still walking together, others have fallen off by the wayside. Whatever the case, we want to hear from you!!! It's time to give us an update. The good, the bad, and the ugly. Whether you've lost 1lb or 100lbs.--let us hear from you!! You can post pix, vent, rant, rave, encourage or receive encouragement...do whatever you like--just post Love to you all and happy bandavesary!!!

GO SUZZZIE!!!! Doesn't it feel great to buy smaller clothes???????? kat--Happy banderversary!!!!! 17 days to go until my day!!! Where is Stef???

Didn't make goal---but glad for the challenge---I'll keep losing--slowly--

mj--so sorry to hear about daughter's injuries. Thank God that it wasn't very serious...only scary. Encourage her to get the rest like the doctor said. Her insides were probabl tossed around. Holli--glad to see you checkin in. ja9va---I know what you mean with the teetering scale!! Size 14 is great. I was happy today when I went to Dillard's department store today. When I buy pants, typically I wear a 16W because my thighs are larger than the rest of my body--so I go to the plus size for women. I wanted some white capri's. I was so encouraged when the sales lady said "Now what size do you wear????" She was about to show me to the misses session. Her face said it all--you're too small for this section--It was GREAT!!! However, I am a realist---the 16W capris fit perfectly I've moved from a size 22 to 16/L top and 16W pants
