Dee, put me down for a +1 this week. I am doing terrible lately but I also had Tom last week. I am going to the beach on July 18...so I am going to "kick it up a notch" and really start watching and exercising.

They will also want to know who will be staying with you for the first 24hrs. You wouldn't be able to drive anywhere, even if you wanted to. They had to remind me to breath. I am still not ready to go out and about.

I am all messed up for sleeping. I am also trying to figure out when I feel full, as I don't ever really. I just keep drinking and "eating" my liquids. Haven't had anything come back up even though I gag on the horrible tasting antibiotics. I do gurgle a lot though.

OK, back from Seattle and the all you can eat baseball game...but I did work out while there. I lost a whopping one pound.

Hi everybody. I have been absent for quite awhile. I've been on a terrible plateau and it was really bugging me so I just haven't wanted to think about my band and weight loss. However, I am ready to tackle it again. I don't think I can possibly catch up with all the posts I've missed, but I'll give it a try. And if you start a new challenge after this one, I want to participate!!!!

[paracelsus51 0]

I'll be one week tomorrow. I am looking forward to warm foods, ok warm liquids. I am feeling pretty good. I have random pains, but nothing bad. I can't walk much as it is really really hot and humid here and I have developed a cold from being exposed to air conditioning. I have yet to be full and am still gurgling away.

Hey Mal! How are you? No, our tent is not set up yet. DH has been out of town working quite a lot this month, and it just BARELY stopped raining here. In addition, not only were my dad and mother-in-law going through cancer treatment (MIL passed away) but now my mom is being treated for breast cancer. Blah.

How is your fam?

Mini~I'm so sorry to hear, my thoughts and prayers. How are you and your family holding up? My heart aches for you, please take care.

Just tried Water aerobics for the first time. Difficult when you have so much body fat that your butt wants to float all the time. I don't know if I'll be able to lift my arms tomorrow.

[paracelsus51 0]

Water aerobics is great. I've been doing them for years, as it's the only workout that my joints can handle. I will be going back this fall after I heal up. You really do get a good workout and sometimes it takes a while before your arms can be used again.

I am so happy happy to see you! :party:That's me in the red dress and the green hat! Not the best outfit, but I was too happy to care! We've all hit plateaus Dear, don't hide from us, come back and let us support you through it.

Take it slow. I remember getting full on half of a popsicle and thinking. "oh no! I hope I didn't ruin my band." it's an odd time, we are all so different. But drink drink drink and take it slow. You'll feel better soon! I am happy the surgery went well!:confused:

YOU My Darling Mal were gone way tooo loooong and because of that you deserve the Naughty Bananas! :tt1: Don't make me send those to you again! I'm glad you're back! I missed you!!!:tt2:(that's me playing you a happy welcome back tune!) (that's you dancing on top of the piano)

Where are you doing your water aerobics? I go to Lifetime Fitness. One teacher is excellent and gives us our monies worth, the other doesn't. I have found that water aerobics can either be extremely good as far as a workout or an extreme waste of time, depending upon the instructor. That's why I just swim my laps. The Weekend Morning girl is excellent, however. If you ever want to go with me as my guest, just let me know!

:couch2: No more couch potatoes for us!

Funny thing happened today. I went by the office to see Natalie. I had told Natalie I WASN'T returning until I was unrecognizable! I'm still recognizable, but I had to drop something off so I just decided to go on in. My last fill was in November and I am still at a very sweet spot! I was there on my 1 year anniversary and didn't get a fill, but that was the last time they saw me. When I walked in the office Dr. K said, "I almost didn't recognize you!" I told him, "you're just saying that because Natalie told you to!" He said, "no, I'm serious." Such a sweet guy! It was fun to see everyone! I can't believe my fill has been so good for so long. (knocking on my wooden head!) - I love my Band! This morning I had 1 egg and a veggie sausage and was satiated for 6 hours! Amazing!:thumbup:

Thanks, sweet Dee! I guess my plateau is over . . . I didn't weigh for a month cuz I was so discouraged and I just weighed and I've lost 2.5 lbs! YAY!!!

That's so awesome what Dr. K. said! That had to feel really good.

I don't know what happened to the boobies on the dancing on the piano banana! It's you, so you tell us what happened to the boobies!:thumbdown: (these boobies?)

I love that Undy 5000! You know, you have to be in pretty good shape to run 5K's! I could never do that! I ran in high school, but haven't since. Sad, huh?
