Hmmm, I loved Hall and Oats, Rick Springfield, Barry Manilow (I know, I know!) Michael Jackson, The Gap Band, Santana, Aerospeedwagon, Air Supply! I was and still am a gigantic nerd!!

Barry Manilow, I so had a crush on him when I was 12 or so, I still think he is a cutey and like his music.:w00t:

Shelbi, I just love you.

Right back at ya, sweetie!

:w00t:

I remember now, the other southern BELLE on here. Mama says you can say anything when you add "bless your heart".:cool2:

Yes, m'am. We belles must mind our mama! "Life is so much nicer with a sweet smile and a "bless your heart"!" (said in my best Scarlette O'Hara voice).

AHHHHHHH!!!

I was reading an article in O magazine today and it was on medications and do they cause you to gain weight? I am currently on six medications ( two more for the back ) and guess how many of my six cause weight gain????? Of all the medications I take, half of them cause weight gain. Four of them cause sleep disturbance.

My band is definately doing it's job.

As I whittle away and rehab and recovery on the back I find more and more things popping up. Needless to say, I'm stopping two of the medications and switching to Tylenol.

I have an appt. with the doctor to review the other four. I am going to begin going off of one of them. The one for panic disorder. I'm changing the Effexor I take for depression because there is a viable option with lesser side effects.

Something tells me once the meds are squared away I will give Dee a run for her weight loss money!!! (grins)

You got it Lap!!!

There is no one else I'd rather pay that Weight Loss Monies to - as much as you!

I wish you could come too! I'd give you a BIG HUG!

Hey, I went to Dick's (sporting goods store) AND bought a Huge Ball! Actually, I bought two balls! HA! One small, one larger! They were on sale! Core Stability Balls, to be exact! Anyway, I've been using them and they are really great! Only problem is -- mine is 96inches around and I can't get it out of my bedroom! ARGH!

Shelbi, I'm not sure if this is true, but I heard you were throwing my good name around AND blaming me for being bad on the Loser's Bench! Is this true? Did you tell one of the New Banditos to watch out for me on the bench?

Don't be causing trouble! Keep your hands to yourself!! AND be nice!

Lap-What issue was this article in? I would like to read it. I used to take Effexor until Feb when I got pneumonia-I was too sick to care about taking my meds and quit cold turkey (and was too sick to care about the withdrawal symptoms). I need to start something for depression again but I am very hesitant to start Effexor again (even though it worked great for me). I would like to see what that article has to say!

Well, one good thing about all this stress is that I have actually been frustrated enough to walk, and walk, and walk on my treadmill. But not so good when I am hardly eating...;)

I don't want to drink barium in the morning....BLECH!!!!!

You can sit next to me! I'd not sit next to Shel, because she tends to be a bit irritating at times! Poking, pinching, squirming!!

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
