New Year's Wishes



Recommended Posts

Just want to say HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone here. May all of us reach at least some of our goals in 2004, whether it's deciding on getting banded, actually having surgery, learning to live with the band (me!), or any of the multitude of minigoals we set for ourselves.

Let's make a collective resolution to keep LapBand Talk thriving. It's been a huge help to me and lots of others, and we can't overstate the importance of experiences shared. Thanks to you all for being here.

Enjoy the night, everyone!!! ;):D :D

Greetings from Ireland, where it's already 2004! It's about 2.41am here and I'm just off to bed, but had to wish all my amazing new bandster friends a very happy new year - like Alexandra, this board had been a wonderful support for me and for the first time ever, I really do feel like one of my biggest wishes, (and subject of so many new year's resolutions) is about to come true - me slimmer and healthy! Even tho it's only been nine weeks since my surgery, I feel more energetic, happier and most importantly of all, proud of myself, for taking this leap of faith and hope. I can't believe so much has come from such a little device!

I hope all your wishes come true for 2004, and that we all continue to support each other through this wonderful medium. ;):D :D

I'm looking forward to this being the happiest year I've had in a long time. This is the year I leave all my "fat" baggage behind me and get on with life. Without this particiular site, I don't think I would have ever had my surgery. I didn't always have much to say, but I was listening very closely. Without hearing all the success stories, I never, EVER would have gone through with it.

So thank you, THANK YOU to all of you and I hope you all have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

;)

No resolutions but realistic goals this year. One of them being a five kilometre walk for breast cancer in the summer. I am just so excited about the things I can do now and am looking forward to my future. Happy New Year everyone.

Happy New Year to you too!

On a personal note Alexandra- do you have the LOTR Trivial Pursuit game? It is great fun! Also the ROTK chess set is very nice- gave it to my 9yo for his b'day last week. We LOVED the movie!

Ohhh, I'm jealous! My LOTR Christmas booty was limited to three calendars (two of the same) and the ROTK soundtrack (LOVE it!!). DH and I were looking at the Trivial Pursuit game in the store the other day and almost caved, but it was a bit more than we wanted to spend. But Valentine's Day is coming, yippee! :)

(The game's questions are based on the movies, right? I mean, the amount of trivia one could glean from the books is too astronomical to contemplate...)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
