I just found out my surgery will be in July (granted my pre-op testing goes okay) SOOOOOOOOO

Here's a thread for everyone getting banded in July 07!

Does anyone have any good ideas for a neat name we could call ourselves?

That is really amazing!

And i just saw you three months ago!!

Look at that chin and neck!!

I will always have a turkey neck! My wrinkles are awful!

Flat tummy, skinny legs, no butt!!

That's great!!! Now SMILE!!!

I was on my way to the gym - really didn't want to go:lol:

I think I was a 12 when I came up for dinner - weight in the 170's ??? now an 8 or 6 - so the last 20 lbs has reallly made a diff - I never thought it would - I had my head so that my little turkey neck didn't show - you see how I have me chin sticking out

That is a super shot, and I too was wondering about your 'lack' of a turkey neck... cause mine is obvious too Phyl, and I still have 40 + lbs to go!!! EEKS... what will I look like then?

Hopefully, I'll look just like Janet... beautiful!

I am going to Toronto tomorrow for another tiny fill, I am not losing steadily, just kinda hanging in the low 180's... its become my nemisis!!

I just want to be in the 170's so badly and break out of this slump...

WIsh me luck ladies.

Ok you guys aren't talking or online so I am going to be sending pictures all day :0)

Hi Janet, I figure that the little white one is a poodle but I can't figure out what breed the Black on is??? Help me out...

How on earth did you get them to pose? My two doggies are never still.. Jack Russell Terriers so they are crazy!!!

I'll try and find a pic for you...

I am sitting here "dying' my hair, and timing it... don't go to work until 1 p.m. and the grey roots were getting just too hard to hide any longer...

My DD and I at Xmas, couldn't find any good ones of my Puppies

yeah!!! It worked!!

Lil Bear (aka Momma's Boy) is a Pomeranian - He is super duper fluffy (hairy) and it's just too hot here (suppose to be 115 today) so we cut him short in the summer and give him a teddy bear (chow type mane).

Angel (aka Momma's Girl) is the poodle

That was my 2nd attemp - they jumped off the chair the 1st time - they are pretty good dogs most of the time

I go this weekend to get mine done - if I didn't color it I would be almost all white:ohmy:...

Love the pic - you and your DD look alike - you dont' look 180..

I think I could use like .01 or .02 fill - I seem to eat too much sometimes but again - I don't really it's just that my head keeps telling me I am hungry when I'm not.

Plus I think that we are so use to eating such small amounts that if we eat say 1/2 cup more - we think we are pigs when in all reality we aren't - we are no longer eating those plates of food, bread and desserts like we use to..

Ok where in the heck is everyone....

Ruby - Linda - Steph - Jackie (come back please) - Karri - Kari - Phyl

I am drinking my water - 108 right now per the little ticker on my task bar - I am on my 3rd bottle.

Breakfast - yogurt & granola - Lunch - Fish & Rice - 10 almonds and I am hungry - but it's cuz I am tired - don't know why just am..

Ok back to work - just wanted to know where everyone was...

Here's me. Still coughing and hacking today. I made a dr appt for tomorrow. Mostly think I need some Rx cough suppressant before I cough my brains out. That would not be good. Throat feels better... probably not strep.

Beautiful Blue Jay just landed in the grass outside my window.

I had a boob squish appt today. I thought it was 1pm & we got there a few minutes early. I got very antsy and a little indignant when I was still sitting there waiting at 1:35pm, so I complained. That's when they told me my appt was for 1:40pm!! I looked it up on my computer calendar when I got home. They were right! It sucks to get old! Everything is right there in my computer and I still can't get it right! I was even getting pop up reminders and I still got it wrong!

I've been a little hungry today, too.

Some people on the Smartbandsters mail list have talked about yogurt and granola for breakfast. That sounds good. Maybe I need a change now & then. I could take some granola on the train. I'm sure you can buy yogurt in their snack bar place.

Phyl

Have you tried some mucinex - that's what the doc had me get last time I was sick. but you really should go to the doc you have been sick for a bit now..

I had yogurt dannon light & fit 60 calories with 1/4 (if that) for bf today - doesn't really stick to the ribs - but it's what I have for bf often - I really don't like sweets in the morning - but I don't like microwaved egg beater and I am not hungry before I leave the house a little after 7

I think the yogurt on the train might be full sugar & high fat - you would be better off with skim milk and granola...

Phyl - for the train, try the Quaker Breakfast Cookies. They aren't the best tasting, but they aren't bad either. They're filling and I think they are 180 calories in individually wrapped packages. Sure hope your squishing comes out fine. I had to hve a biopsy this morning. Ouch!

Thanks. I'll have to get some of those. They'll be easy to transport.

Yikes! Let us know about that biopsy!

One nice thing...

when they gave me my paperwork to update,

I had to make a drastic change in the weight.

Last time I was there, a year ago,

I weighed 75 lb more than now.

I was a couple of weeks in to my pre-op diet.
