Shrinking Violets -- April 07 Bandsters

[Puddy 0]

Are there any shrinking violets from Toronto, Ontario? I am envious of the fact that the Texas people are getting together and would like to set something up with those who live in my area.

Sorry Puddy!!!!!!! I'm in Kansas

I ended up going home for lunch and cooking 3 eggs with a slice of pepperjack......... It is now time for my water....

My next mini goal is 234 and of course 229... getting ONEderland will be a BIGGEE for me

...Jennifer, if you pm me your address I'll US mail you a copy of my nutritionist's eating plan that is appropriate for lapband. And maybe since you are so computer orientated you can post it for all.

yes! please post it!

Hey Terri, Josie, Schexxy, whoever else is joining us on the 24th... Town and Country is fine with me. I like Cafe Express and I've never been to Escalante. Either is fine with me, I'm not picky at all. I get off of work at 5 so I can be down there at about 5:45. ... are any of the other ladies coming in a size 22-24? I have some shirts that I'd like to bring for you. Let me know...

Chica Chula - I am a size 22-24 so please bring the skirts. When I am out of that size, I will donate them and then give you the tax receipt!

Town & Country villiage : (Escalante or Cafe Express?)

Hi everyone....to the ones that are wishing they could have a get together like the Texas violets, I am in TX and I can't go either...schedule, babysitter, yadayadayada...so I am envious too.

boooohoooo!! poor me!!

Well, I need to run...got off work a little early today cause my mom is in town and she is coming to visit. God I wish we lived closer to each other....

See ya!

Ok just got home from the doctor...he added in 0.8cc!!! I've lost 5 lbs since the last fill 3 weeks ago, so hopefully this will kickstart me a little more since I HOPEFULLY won't be able to eat as much in a sitting. That's where I'm having a hard time because I'm not hungry in between meals so I normally don't snack, however once I start eating I FEEL hungry and don't feel full.

Hopefully this will help...I'm now at my 3rd fill and have a total of 2.8 in a 4cc band....seems like a lot since I just got banded 2 1/2 months ago....

Afternoon everyone!!

Mission accomplished on the newest flower bed. It's been paved, lined, planted and mulched. And I got my exercise in hauling the blocks and the mulch, not to mention down on my knees digging BIG holes for the plants. DH has been working on the fencing. We have to have everything done by Sunday when the church garden tour comes through. Then I can breathe deep and let it go until next year!

My mom would be proud of me. She was a great flower lover and had the most beautiful flower gardens. Never a weed in them and no easy way out with liner and mulch.

I've got half my Water in for the day and will probably finish the rest right now. I'm sooooooo thirsty. It's 72 out but the sun is beating down.

I have a meeting tonight so I better hop in the shower and get changed or they will all be forced to sequester me due to the "flower stink"..

Hey all, that is all helpful info. I sent a couple of PM's so you guys don't think I'm ignoring.

So this am I called and scheduled an appt with my nutritionist for Friday am. I know in all reality, 40lbs in 3 months is great. but I want to change my bad habbits with good ones, and eating 3 oz of moist chicken 2x's a day and a scrambled egg and 1 serving of veggies is not it. so, now the next phase.

I went to the gym, did a full set of weights. tomorrow I'm going to do cardio and arms, wed Water aerobics and thurs cardio & legs and friday a full set weekend off. I'm going to get this right! LOL

Here are pics of the lastest flower bed. The more flowers, the less grass to mow!!

Town & Country villiage : (Escalante or Cafe Express?)

Let's say Cafe Express if you don't mind. I never get to eat there and it's one of my favorite spots! Plus, they have lots of healthy choices. Escalante, not so much. Oh Goody! This will be fun!

Sorry to you other violets. We'll take pics, ok? Will that help? And we'll try NOT to have any fun and we DEFINITELY won't talk about any of YOU! OK? :lie:

I am so jealous.....

well i got the only mini skirt in the entire JCPenney. everything was skorts and I didn't want that, I think they are horribly uncomfortable and walking for 8 hrs in the heat... YUCK

well it was a size 18. I know not that impressive but considering my other one is a size 24 I am very happy. and it is not tight at all, I did have a 16 in something else, and they fit, just showed a little too much so I won't worry about how I look all day. I have a cute black top I'm going to run to my friends and take in so It stays up and I got these cute sketchers flip flops/ black with white fringe and skulls to wear with it. I am going to look so cute.

I'll have my daughter take pics. I'm going to bring my camera so my friend can take lots while we are there... maybe even one with me and Hillary... HAHAHAHAHAHAH

[Teachlady 3]

Terry... You better take LOTS of pics or we definitely will be jealous. Not like I won't be jealous anyway.. You violets are so lucky to be close to each other and get to meet each other in person. I can't begin to think how much fun you're going to have. Does this restaurant know what it's in for?? Try not to get thrown out, k???

Good morning Jennifer, ladies!

Jennifer, if you pm me your address I'll US mail you a copy of my nutritionist's eating plan that is appropriate for lapband. And maybe since you are so computer orientated you can post it for all.

I would love to get the copy of your nutritionist's eating plan.

Is it all typed out so all you have to do is photo copy it?

I am not sure how much one would charge me here to see one.

They only have them at the hospital, and I am sure it would

be expensive. I am pretty broke right now, but also depressed'

to know everyone else is losing like crazy and I have been stuck for

2 months. :help: Denise

[Jennifur 0]

so for the first time, I'm watching it too. My cousin is going for a consult on Friday, I'm so happy for her, she is bigger than i am but has a bad back and was waiting to see if they were going to operate on that before wls. so guess what won... I'm so happy for her! My dad's side of the family are all huge, she lost a ton on south beach but has stopped so she has worked hard and has changed her souther way of eating so I think she will do well!

So tracy - I'm blown away, I could not even imagine having all that skin...
