Lap Dancer~ where did you find that really great website??? Not just really cheap shipping...did you see the prices of the protein supplements? WOW!!! I can get the Optimum Nutrition all Whey Gold Standard for about half of what I can get it for here in the Springs. And...they have the IDS Protein Vials! Puts those at about 2.60 a piece with the shipping. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for sharing!

Lap and LA~ I have issues with ice cream too...so cold, sweet, delicious, and never gets stuck or is uncomfortable...:w00t: And it was never a huge issue before....rats! (but I've always liked it!) Lap~ Wow. If your poor daughter had issues before, I can't imagine what they would be at 8 months along. I know how I was, and I hadn't even been diagnose with anything (yet). Rest up! Mal~ I understand your hubby when it comes to the wii fit...but did you know, with all of us who gets one, that you can hook it into your internet and we can all "work out" together if we log on at the same time and link them up? Can you picture me and you working out "together"? That would be a gas! And kinda pathetic for me, cuz, well, exercise sucks and every bit of me shows it! hahahaha! Just a thought to throw at the hubby...let him know friendship support is what everyone needs...:tt2:

Yay, Shelbie! I remember that day! I think the only day better will be when you see your goal on there! I can't wait for that! CONGRATS!!!!! Mini~Neat, your wii fitting too! I think I'll get mine this weekend if they aren't sold out...I'm in the Springs. My "stimulus" payment came today...time to stimulate! (Oh my!) Mal~ I'm not a true district employee....I'm a sodex`ho employee...and the pay sucks for me too! Oh well. In fact I got my "raise" today too...and I wonder if its worth the paper work to change my pay!!!!! Since you didn't see a cancellation to get a fill, did you schedule one? How far out are the appointments these days? Think I'll get a small one. Haven't been in since January. Dee~ A funeral director? Kinda opposite of what you do, however I can see how the computer would chuck it out. You're a very caring, sweet, compationate, and comforting sole. That is what people need during that time. :scared2: Have a great nite!

Yay!!! My last day...its my last day! :hurray::party::sad: Okay... I feel better now! Dee~ June 11th I think works for me. My son has baseball that night (yes, I know I thought things would be less busy, but now maybe not so much) but I think that Chris can take him to practice. Chris joined a softball team, and I'm not sure what nights he'll be playing. Between the two I'll be nuts still! Still no Wii Fit :tt2:. I better get a hold of one soon! Glad its considered a work out...cuz...well...exercise :frown:. hahahaha!:tt2: Well...gotta run! Gotta work my LAST DAY! :w00t:

Mal~ Weeeeeeeee! I tried to buy it on the 21st...all sold out here in the Springs. At Target you can get the Ski also for like 10 bucks off. Hubby wants that. So...Gotta get Wii Fit!!!!! And Ski!!!! And yes, I hope that is considered working out...cuz...well you know me! That's pretty much as close as I'll get! :biggrin:

Dee! Count me in for 15 lbs. I gotta do it for the bbq! :biggrin:

Oooo, Ooooo! I have a question! Does doing Wii Fit count as exercise?? I haven't gotten mine yet, but definately plan to.:crying:

Hi! Well, Dee, I looked over the Plateau Busters Diet. I'm seriously thinking of giving this a shot. I have still not lost any more weight. :crying: Is it okay if I ask where you found it? Was it something that Paula gave you? Also, sorry I missed RR. I just suck lately. I didn't even have the right night, then when I saw I missed it, I felt too dumb to post for a while.:thumbup: And I see that we are at the end of yet another month...which means that another must be coming up?!!! No goofy weather to wreck it for me. (Oh I hope I didn't jinx it...this is colorado after all!) I only have three more days of work...tomorrow, tues. and wed. Yippy Skippy! We've been busting our buns trying to get that kitchen cleaned up. With as short as summer break is getting, it really only sits "dormant" for about 10 weeks. First "back to work meeting" is August 11. Waaaah! :drool: Okay, I'm setting a short term goal today. Here in front of everyone. (this usually motivates me quite well, public commitment!) I want to weigh 178 at Dr. K's BBQ. This is a 15-17lb loss by the first week of August. I know that doesn't seem that much, but I've lost nothing for so long. I would really love to be down 100 lbs for this event. Maybe a small fill? Even resort to...OMG!...can hardly say it....eeeek!:thumbup:...exercise?? (even typing it makes me feel icky!) Okay...gonna go and contemplate my weight. Have a sooooper night all! Keeping you all in my thoughts!

Banditos!!! Good morning! I have tried to start a post for about 6 mornings, then get interrupted and busy, then my computer goes into suspense mode, or whatever it is...and poof! My post is gone. I've been trying to keep up with reading them, just really crappy lately at posting. Forgive me, guys! I truly do still think of you every day! Dee~ I was thinking about RR too...my brother comes in town on the 8th, which would put me in Denver at 12:30 at night...heehee! (Silly redeye! but cheaper.) I think that the dates you put on were for the next week, and I would really like to touch base with you all. I see that Dynamo finds a man and dissappears??? GOOD FOR HER! GO MICHELLE!:tt1: Dee, LA, Lap and Tina~think I saw some pics...and I just can't believe the difference. You are doing soooo well. I hope your changes are helping you feel just as great on the inside. Brandy~ read about your loss too...I'm so excited for you! You are really working your band well! Mal~ Hi, girlie! How are you doing? I miss you too!!! Can't wait to see you! I have seen posts from lots and lots of newbies! Congratulations to you all. This is as life altering as getting married, buying a new house, or having children. Sometimes I like to compare it to being "pardoned by the Gov".:tt1: I did have a bit of a set back in March/April. It took a couple of weeks to shed the almost 10lbs I gained during Easter and vacation. But recently I have started to lose again. And although its only been a few more pounds, my body is starting to change again, even though the scale not so much. I want to work at more loss this summer... And as for the Dr. K BBQ~~~~~I just can't wait!! You all have to help me lose another 15 lbs before that day. I just have to! That would put me down 100lb. What a great goal and way to honor him that day. (and myself) Last day of school is May 28! Woo hoo! Then I will probably work another 2 days to close down the kitchen for the summer (clean all the food outta the cooler and do deep cleaning) And then I'm free until August! Yay! Then I'll post until your sick of me! Hahahaha!:tt2: Well, think I'll get an itty bit of a fill sometime soon. It's hard to schedule now that I'm monday-friday with work. Eeeek! Maybe if I schedule now I'll get in by July??? hahahaha! Just kidding. Are you all getting in sooner now that he has the Assistant? Sorry so long guys! Have a great day! Miss you all to pieces!

Dee! No camera???!!!! Oh no! Ya, the weather is really bad, still. Not sure that we will have school in the morning. Who knows. I would have been on earlier to let you know, but......bad news! My computer, I believe, has contracted a virus. I couldn't get online, or use the key board and tons of other crazy stuff. I managed to get into my picture files and I have been trying desperately to retrieve them and get them on a disk. I know, I know! I should do this often, but I'm so lazy. I do have them stored at Snapfish, but they are only stored in 4x6 format. They really shrink them down. (considering how huge they are when you take them) I think I got it done though. The pictures and all my other documents. I pulled 9 disks off. yay! So now Firedog can strip it down and do whatever. And I've been messing with some other stuff so I was able to sign back on aol....yay again! Back to RR~~~maybe we could do a little get together some other time? I'd really love to see you. That's two months in a row of crappy weather. Do you realize in a couple of days is my one year Bandaversary? I hope this next year takes the rest off! Have a great night all! Glad you and lifesaver had a good night...I really missed it!

Michelle! Congrats on your new love! :eek::thumbup::Banane20::tongue::Banane20::wink2: He better realize what a great person he has with you! Have fun!

EEEEEEEK!!!!! Have you guys seen the forecast for tomorrow night!??? I hope its wrong! Otherwise...I'll have to pass on RR.:thumbup: Taynuh~~~I have problems with irritation too if I take Advil or Aleve. What I have learned is, to make sure you sit up for at least half an hour after you take it. And use plenty of Water. If I lay down for sleep after I take it....its bad. (or if I need to take it during the night) Burning and pain in my gut. And that irritation makes you PB more. And make sure you take a tummy pill like pepcid or zantac (over the counter stuff) when you take your pills or once a day while you need them. I go in spurts with my TOM. For about 3 days I need lots of Aleve and this really seems to help me. Good luck! Have a great night, All!

L.A.~~~~{{{{{{{{{{{{{Hug!:purplebananna:}}}}}}}}}}}}} Here's hoping the best outcome possible! Just thought I'd bump this up...Lap Dancer~ I'm pretty sure we all agreed on the Wed the 9th for the RR! (Because we usually do Thurs and moved it.) Red Robin Banditos gathering. Wed, 9th, 7pm, I-25 and Arapahoe: Woofay Lap Dancer Brandy Dee Rene' (Lifesaver)-Newbie Mal (T appt, depending on the outcome, I'll either be late or ???)

Hi, Guys! Long time no post! I'm sorry. I've been so busy. We spent a week in Oklahoma and right before that was Easter....then back to work. Now my one son is sick again....it's truly no excuse, but its all true! I can't believe I survived a week in OKC with no internet. Okay, I was bad during those two weeks too... (really bad) I can't remember the last time I stuffed so many Easter chocolates and such into my face. Then, a week with my hubby's grandma, who is a wonderful cook and bakes all day...I had no willpower. I came home and was up 9 lbs!!!!:thumbup: My hubby was up 7, my first son was up 2.5 and the little one was up 1.5 lbs. My family gained 20lbs together! OMG!!!!!! As of this morning, I have gotten rid of them. Whew! But, alas, I have not lost any weight for a while. Still down about 80, depending the time of day, but has been there a while. I really need to gather and refocus. I'm on for the 9th. We are meeting the 9th, right? I had to go through a lot of posts to catch up, but I think this was the final answer? I really need to regroup and concentrate a bit. Let's all do a little anti-snow dance for that night! (as the snow continues to fall as I type!) Michelle! I'll miss you! But, I'm also happy that you are connecting with someone. This phase of a relationship can be so fun! Hi to everyone~~~~ and hi to all the newbies. I didn't see one of these started, so I guess I'll get it going! Just copy and paste your name added to the list to see what kind of gathering we will have this month! Have a great night all! Red Robin Banditos gathering. 7pm, I-25 and Arapahoe: Woofay Lap Dancer

OH ya......just wanted to add....since that dreaded picture of me at Christmas 2 years ago (my moment of "fat" truth)....I'm down 80lbs! Woohoo! :teeth_smile::shades_smile:

Good morning, All! I'm recovering from a snow day....I cleaned all day! I truly don't care which day we do RR. All I need is a good weather day! Please, please, Pleeeeeeeeeeeze bring good weather! :thumbup: Wednesday is just fine with me. Lap, are you really going to see us this trip? Well, just when I was sure I needed a fill~~~~~~my band has been so tight for about 3 days. EEEEEEEK!:teeth_smile: My good ole friend PB has returned to visit me! RATS! It usually occurs like this for my TOM, but this isn't the case this time. Who knows? Fickle lil' band of mine!:shades_smile: But I finally have lost another pound, so I'll take it! Have a fabulous day, All! I gotta go feed my lil guys now! (go to work)

Hey, guys! Thought I would pop in to say "Hi" and I hope that everyone's band is treating them well. My weight loss seems to have stalled a bit. I'm also able to eat some things that I haven't been able to eat in quite a while, so I'm thinking I may need a slight adjustment. Not sure though. Anyways, even though my life seems crazy, I'm thinking about you! Here's wishing you all well! I'll try and post more this weekend! Have a great night! :smile2:

Amieru~ Congrats! Yay! Liven' in the Twoterville! Way to go!!!!!!!!! :smile2::party::sad::party::eek::party::Dancing_sorry::party:

BOOKHOLDER!!!!! YAY! CONGRATS ON ONEDERLAND! I bet with your beautiful height you are just looking maaaaaahvalous!:huh2: Dee! Thanks for getting that picture on there. I wish I had gone. Did you even get any of the weather that was forecasted? And you better not crop that pretty face of yours outta the pictures! Your face is already changing and how can we see your transformation if you do? You are really on your way! Doesn't it make you almost giddy? Marcy~ I just love your stories. Your life sounds just like a neat TV show.(remember Northern Exposure?) Congrats on your loss and your son's baptism. Keep the pictures coming! I just love them! (Next time...bigger!) Mal~ hi! Haven't heard much from you. Guess I'm not much better these days. Man do I feel busy! Hafta win the lotto tonight so I can spend more time on my 'puter! Hahaha!:cool2: How's your band been treating you? Dynamo~You look so energenic in your pic! Whatever your doing...keep it up! I can't wait to see you next month. Ya, the ticket sucks.:sad: The positive part of this is, he clocked me at 63 in a 50, and well, I usually go 80 through that area...so I'm glad I was going slow for me! It's out on the highway, so its not like I was being criminal or anything. It was way north on Powers about a mile before Highway 83. There is one small block area where they drop the speed limit to 50~ I'm guessing to create revenue. (the Springs is notorious for their way-too-slow speed limits to create revenue) No one ever slows down through there, but that day, they had about 10 cops with a huge speed trap. Me and about a thousand other people have the same court date! Heehee! Oh well. Mona, Amieru, Brandy~ Hi!!! Really hope we can all get together next month and just stare at each other and think..."Wow! What a great bunch of losers!" Have a great weekend, All!!!!

Shelbi~ I'm sorry to hear that you are going through such a hard time. Mental illness runs deep in my family too, and I can assure you that Arizona is no better in treating the mentally ill. In fact, America is terribly negligent when it comes to caring for our mentally ill. We are "third world" in that respect. I admire your keep on keeping on! You go girl! I hope you get all the benifits and care for your son that you need. Sometimes we just have to let my Aunt run the streets because, as we've been told repeatedly by the police..."its not illegal to be insane." Nice. She has to hurt someone or herself before they do anything. (and this does happen) And the assistance from each incident is so minimal and short. We are so quick to raise money for cancer, heart disease, I just don't see a lot of fund raisers for the "Manic-schizophrenics" Good luck with everything~keep us posted and I'll keep you in my prayers!:crying:

I'm so sad that I missed tonight. :teeth_smile: I'm glad that you took some pictures, Dee. I can't wait to see them. I didn't watch the news tonight so I don't know how the weather from here to there was. Did ya order something good? I missed my tortilla soup and salad. Rats. John is down 100 lbs! Wow, how great is that! Definately wanna see the pics just to see! You've been banded a month now, too, Dee. I'm sure the loss is starting to show! And Michelle with her fountain of youth, gets better, thinner and younger looking every month! And where was everyone else tonight? Mal? Mare? Bookholder? Has anyone heard anything from Marilyn? And Brandy is broken. Sorry to hear that, by the way. Everyone will be so skinny next month I won't recognize them! Maybe even Lap Dancer will gather with us next month??? Well, I'm hitting the hay. This job is kicking my butt, plus I got a speeding ticket today and I'm irritated as heck about it. (haven't had one of those since I was 20) Good evening, All!:crying:

Okay, here's the final decision...I won't be there tonight. The forecast does not appear good, so...I'll be aiming for next month. Sorry! Hope, hope, hope someone takes pictures!

Hey, Guys! I've been having a lot of fun reading the new posts. How neat are the NSV? How about not having to take a ton of ibuprofen/aleve just so your knees/feet don't hurt too much to function? Or... Taking your blood pressure in a Target/Walmart and its normal??? I have lots...but anyhow! Did you all see the weather forecast for tomorrow??? CRAP! Not sure I'll be present for the RR.... I've only missed one....{sniff, sniff} But, after last months trip home, I think I'll listen to the forecast. Of course, things can change quickly here, so who knows until tomorrow. Have a great night all!

Dee~ you have no idea! Hee hee! So, I used to be able to burp as good as my brothers, and well, the burp went away with this band.:hurray:(comes from a girl with three brothers, no sisters) So now I can out toot them! Oh, goodness! I'm silly tonight! But, yes, that is what I'm saying! :confused: Sad huh!

Drews!!!!! So good to hear from you! Time for Derbying again! Yup...your gonna need some kcals! Hey...pleeez eat a bite of steak for me...I miss it! Amie! Congrats on being banded! Yay! You're going to love the journey! The gas thing, well, for some of us its ongoing since being banded. Not the painful, bloated, upper abdomine thing necessarily...but the 4 in the morning orchestra...oh my! I'd never been like that before unless I ate something questionable. But now its pretty much every night. (bet everyone wanted to know that!:biggrin2:) Some things are just worth the price! Congrats again!
