Thanks Maria, Loriely and Peaches. I KNOW I'm not drinking enough Water. So has anyone heard anything about artificial sweeteners and if they affect WL? I drink SF Kool-Aid and Crystal Lite every day, a couple of times a day. Do you take in a lot of artificial sweeteners and do you think they make any difference? I hope you're all feeling and doing well!

Buffie: Hi from BC. What does your doctor say. Maybe you have reached what should be the normal weight for a person of your height, bone structure, etc. I used to correspond with a TLBC patient from Saskatoon who worked at the hospital are you that person? Doddie

Hi Doddie, yes I do work at a hospital in S'toon. We corresponded a few times. You're doing GREAT!!!! Congratulations! I spoke at great lengths with my family doc yesterday about what my goal weight should be. She informed me that 160 is not likely going to work for me because of my body structure, she told me that 10 pounds more will be enough. So I'm setting my goal at 175 and if I hit 170 I'll be satisfied. At the rate I'm going now it'll take me 10 years to get there anyway! I went for a .1 cc fill Friday and I'm going for another one next week. I'm just not getting enough restriction at this point. Anyway, how have you been doing Doddie?

Hi: buffie I responded privately to you on your e mail. 101 lbs is nothing to sneeze at. You are doing just great. Doddie

Today I haved turned 50. Wow, didn't see that coming. I wasn't really sure how I felt about this milestone but yesterday Kathy at TLBC asked me and I actually thought about it and realized that I am going into this new stage of my life very positively. I feel that good things are ahead. A healthy weight being a major part of that. I know I will only get better. I was so glad she asked me because I hadn't given it much thought.

Thank you everyone. I had a small piece of cake and almost choked to death so I will have to stick to the likes of cheesecake.. It seems to slide down easiest. Just had a birthday lunch and this evening another birthday dinner. Oh the things I must endure. he he he.

Congratulation, on your birthday and also on your decision to be banded. I also turned 50 this year and one of deciding factors for me is I do it now or never, this has been best year in a long time, I feel 10 years younger.
