  1. Terri, Happy Bandiversary to you Happy Bandiversary to you. Happy Bandiversary to Terri, Happy Bandiversary to you. You're amazing. :thumbup: :eek: :thumbup:
  2. Judy, Hope your feeling better. I'm off to bed early, taking my friend to have her colonoscopy done tomorrow morning. :thumbup: It's been a long day and my butt is dragging. Have a great evening.
  3. Now I can't figure out if I'm supposed to drink water or not. Boy, they just like to keep us confused. All the news stations were talking about the new reports this morning. Water, no water. Eggs, no eggs. meat, no meat. They can't make up there minds. This is how I see it. I'm going to drink my water. I like it and I like how I feel drinking it. It does me good. And as soon as the pool is put in and we fill it, I'm going to like floating on it. I love water.
  4. Pam, correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't Dinah and Burt Reynolds an item for a very long time? I'm thinking I remember how devestated he was when she died. Hmmmmm.
  5. Pam, No matter what, WE are very proud of you. You've come a long way. Have a great time this weekend. Hugs to you.
  6. Pam, Happy Bandiversary to you Happy Bandiversary to you, Happy Bandiversary Dear Pam. Happy Bandiversary to you. :huh2: :tt2: :tt2: :party:
  7. Just stopping by real fast and checking in. Took my sis to do her pre-op and now I'm off to go get the mop on my head cut. Than it's off to the hospital for our shift. Pam, I had A-Typical Endometrial Hyperplashia and had to have everything removed. I mean everything. I am now technically a shit, (that's a she+it). I too had to deal with the fact that there was no possible way to have kids. We don't have any and now there was really no way of having any. I am so truly blessed to have a man that walked thru my cancer scare with me and still loves me for the one big scar that I am. You will be just fine and you are also blessed to have Susanne with you by your side for it. Hang in there. Is everyone getting their Water in? I was going to give Terri a Royals update but she's not here so Judy this is for you. 1st inning- no score. :wink_smile:

    Dr. Malley is who did my band. You will really like him. He's super but let me warn you he is kinda on the quite side. You'll really like Nikki and Rachel. They are so kind and wonderful and sweet. My next appointment is in about 4 weeks. Keep taking your antibiotics and the 16th. will be here before you know it. Make sure you get your before pictures taken. You'll appreciate them later on.
  9. Morning, This is my early day at work. Than it's off to Wal-mart. Home to get some housework done, haircut at 1 and than our shift at the hospital. Long day for me. Don't forget to drink, drink, drink today. Have a great day.

    OMG, Just a week away. You have got to be too excited. I know I was at that stage. I came down with a slight cold a few days before and didn't say anything to anyone. They couldn't figure out why I was running a little fever and all they did was give me more antibiotics. I was afraid they would cancel my surgery and I had waited to long for it. Just keep yourself doctored up and it should turn out ok. I will be in Osage Beach in July. Can I look you up? I'm right out of K.C. in Blue Springs. I'll let you know the date when it gets closer. Good Luck to you. Keep me posted.
  11. Happy Bandiversary to all my April Friends. Wow, a whole year for you guys. How does it feel? Good Luck and hope the following year brings you to your goals. :thumbup: :frown: :ciappa: :seeya:
  12. Hubby and I went and checked out the new Bass Pro. It just opened about 5 weeks ago. We were waiting the crowds to die down before going anywhere near it. Wow, it's huge and awesome. We had a great time walking around seeing everything. As we were getting ready to leave I made the coment about how thirsty I was and hubby said that there was a bar in the restaurant. I made a bee line for it thinking I was going to get me an iced tea. So we sit downa nd the waitress comes over and hands us the menus. I'm looking on there and they have these five drinks listed. I don't remember the name of the drink but it had mango juice, pineapple juice, coconut and Rum. That's all it took for me. Ended up ordering one. We ordered an appetizer to share and than ordered another drink. Ended up bringing the appetizers home for dinner. Two drinks are my limit and boy were they good. Almost forgot how good rum is. Going to go get the hair cut tomorrow. I was looking in the mirror while drying it this morning and came to the realization that if I was a man I would be bald. The kind of bald were they have the little ring of hair around the bottom of the hair line. I would be bald on top. I had actually noticed this several years ago but just remembered it today. My hair is real thin on top and thick around the sides and back. This isn't from the protein thing and surgery. It's all back in now. Just something weird I've noticed about me. OK, now you guys know my deep dark secret.
  13. Hello and Welcome. My story isn't any different than anyone else's. I was very overweight and had tried for years all kinds of diets. I came to the realization that I needed more help than groups or blogs or psychatrist. One thing I did know was that a gastric by-pass was not for me. One day while I was vegging out in front of the TV I saw an ad for the Band. I started researching it and was amazed. I attended my first seminar and was more than determined that this was what I wanted. I attended my second seminar with my husband and he also saw that this was a way for me to go. I made my first appointment and than it was a 6 month ordeal with the insurance company. I outlasted them and was rewarded with a phone call saying that I had been approved. My life hasn't been the same since.

    This has not been a cakewalk. I still have huge hurdles to climb over. I'm still battleing an eating disorder. I always feel like I have to eat it all. Clean my plate. I'm working on those issues. But in the meantime I am the happiest person in the world. I love my band. It has changed my life like nothing else. No turning back.

    Good Luck to you and I wish you success with your Band.

  14. Welcome aboard Angela.
  15. Just got home from going out to lunch with hubby and I think I'm dunk.....No, I think I'm drun....no, runk... Oh Hell, I think I'm wasted.
  16. Kathie Lee Gifford is coming back to TV. Yikes. I wonder if she has toned down alittle as she has aged? This will interesting.
  17. Morning, Up early because I have to go give blood. They want me to make sure I drink plenty of water so I'm busy doing that. Than I have to come home and get my sister and take her to the Doctors. After that I have a WW meeting and than hubby and I will be going to Bass Pro. Long day for me. Ok Girls, I know I have slacked off on this and I'm sorry about that. But I'm going to try to do better. So here goes, Alert, Alert, Alert, Alert. Water Patrol on Duty. All of you. Drink, Drink, Drink, Drink.

    All you people do is complain...

    Why does that person keep calling me fat? Did I miss something? My circus mirror shows me young and carrying my weight well also.
  19. Ham and Beans for dinner tonight. Have to eat early. I have to fast all night so I can give blood tomorrow. They won't redo my cholesterol pill till they check my level. Looking forward to that one. Hubby and I are off to go spend a few hours at the new Bass Pro shop tomorrow. This thing is huge. Hope we don't get lost. We just want to go see what the big draw is. Have a great evening.

    Why didn't you all tell me I was Fat? I thought you were my friends.
  22. Laura, Thanks for the website and I understand what she was trying to say but that is what we are all here for. We all have been there and we understand what everyone is going thru. This is a support site. I do guarantee you one thing, she's still here. She has just changed her name and is going incognito. A lot of people do that so that they can see what others are saying about them. She's lurking. Kat, I had lunch several months ago with a girl that was severly diabetic. She had the medical insignia tattooed on her wrist on the outside. On the inside she had diabetic tattoed. It was kid of shocking to see it. I also have ICE on my phone. Terri, The Tigers and Royals just went into the eleventh inning tied 4 up. hought you would like the update. (teehee). Went for another walk today but we decided to go to the park this time. Some one let there dog loose and I had to carry dog for awhile. He liked that. Have a great evening.
  23. Kat, Just about had apple juice come out my nose when I read "Side Boobs". I've never heard them described like that. But that is how I search for bras'. Need to make sure I can get all 4 boobs in there. I don't have an alert bracelet but my Doctor gave us all cards to carry in our wallets. I have mine right behind my insurance card. When ever I go to the emergency room for anything I always let them know. Winds are horrid here this morning. News said they are clocking some of them at 50 mph. Yikes. Even the kitties don't want to go out. Not much going on today. Have to do my morning shft at work and than I'm free after that. Terri. BASEBALL starts today. Already have my outfit picked out to wear. All Royal Blue. Everyone have a great day.

    October 2006 Bandsters!

    It's been awhile since I have checked in here. Good to see most are doing well. I've had my ups and downs. Things are going kind of slow right now. It's not the band it's me. I have just not been making good choices. And also eating more than I should be. Seems like I just try to see how much I can eat instead of how much I should eat. Going back to some of my old eating habits. Need to stop that. I love my band and have lost 143 pounds because of it. Good Luck to all of you.
