First of all, Donali and Kelly WOW! you look great! Love the new pics!

Kelly I am glad you sorted out your problem by having some liquid removed. It is a horrible feeling when nothing goes through. Enjoy your meals while you can have slightly biggers serves, and remember sometimes eating again activates the metabolism ( specially if combined with a bit of excersise).

cheers

ps, Its so weird! after being very careful for weeks on what I eat, went crazy on mac and cheese, chocolate and ice cream on sunday, and finally lost a kilo after 3 weeks of nothing!!!!! back to salad land now tho....

I've had that happen before, too. I think our bodies just need to be reassured every now and then that we are not in the midst of a famine and it is OK to let go of some fat.

Thanks, Tellie!

It is weird, but I've experienced that same thing - where I had dieted for a long time, and stopped losing weight, and then had a small binge, and BAM! The weight started dropping again.

Very weird. :cool:

Thanks for the compliment. I wanted to get some saline put back in yesterday, but when I showed up at the Drs office; he was gone. I did not have an appt. I scheduled a fill for June 21st to get some put back in. I have been eating salads since I got the fill taken out. This weekend is my little boy's 2nd birthday and I don't want to gain any weight, so I have been trying to diet. Maybe if I binge on ice cream I will lose a few lbs. I just had a lady tell me that the lap band don't work....she is a very sweet lady, but boy......do I disagree.

ack! did I say back to saladland? I am out of control! I actually made tamales last night (never attempted before in my life), and have been slowly but surely eating them today like there is no tomorrow! It scares me that I can still lose control this way, also because it seems, the more I eat, the more i CAN physically eat ( like my band expands when i binge or something) I scare myself, its like good old me is back.....the me that went on a rampage every time after breaking yet another diet......At least my binges have limits now.... I am just feeling like Mr. Hyde is out again :cry will *I* ever get a grip?

I hope my kilo stays away.... and my self control remembers its way back...... argh!!!

ps, kelly, hope your son has a wonderful party! all the best to Mr.2 and welcome to life with a 2 year old! ( my daughter will be 3 in November)
