Haha Xavier! Well no its not from bad plastic surgery. Actually the only thing to keep in mind (ala Ernie) is that the Celebrity could be real or a fictional character. You might even call that a bit of a clue… So we’ll call that clue #1.

Whoa goodness. L I’m so sorry you had to go through that… that’s terrible. Yes there has to be a reason why a majority of Dr.s forbid soda after our surgery. I will definitely keep this in mind. I do notice a difference in the feeling in my stomach after only a few sips.

Hey Ezma! That is a really great idea. I have been doing that but only part time. I do all liquids during the day (added in 2 pieces of fruit) and for dinner I’m eating Lean Cuisine’s with a side green salad or tuna sandwiches or something lite to break the monotony. It’s been working pretty good too! Doing the liquids really does help to shrink that pouch! I really can’t eat much already and I’ve been doing this for almost 4 days now. Well, today is day 4 and I already notice a difference in the amount I can eat until I get my full signal. Not only that, I have a really bad sugar habit. I know how it came about, but getting rid of it hasn’t been easy at all. So far every day gets better and easier. C’mon Ezma we can do this!! I’d love to hear you lose that 40 Lbs before your trip. J

Yep Chapa that’s two in a row… awesome! Ok that one was really easy. I should have cropped it better. J I don’t think this one will be as easy though… Here’s #4

OMG Chapa you got it right!!! You posted while I was posting my next clue.. good job!! J

Nope Debbie Reynolds is not it. Wow you all are really coming up with some good answers (and possibly good celebs for future games). Okay I’ll go easier with this clue because I’ve already got my next Celeb picked out! Clue #2: Her birthday is 7/17/17 and had a cameo spot on the Drew Carey Show once.

Hey Jen, it’s just a teaspoon after all. Don’t let a tiny teaspoon break you. Yay you for being 182!! You did it!! J Kat you are too funny! LOL J Well this is the one and only time I like being called a loser… haha! And for you, 2 lbs is great! I wish I could lose two pounds! I’m trying and I mean REALLY TRYING! Sounds like you had a wonderful day with your DD and DGD. J Saying a prayer for your dear friend’s Mom Perfie… Hugs. Suzie, if it’s dairy I love it. Love it love it LOVE IT!!! But yeah 3 days isn’t bad. I’ve done it before. I went 7 days on clear liquids, but I’m telling you… it wasn’t easy at all. I never felt so crabby in all my life I think. Jolly, prayers to you also for you MIL. I hope all will be ok with her. Tracy, what’s going on? Is she taking a break? L Miss you girl!

Yay thanks for playing everyone! Apples, we sure need more fun games here so hopefully we can get alot of people to make some guesses. Unfortunately though, no Lucille Ball is not correct. L Okay, here’s hint #1: This actress/comedienne has been married 3 times and has 6 children. Good luck!

Good question. It is true our soldiers are really depleted and exhausted from numerous rounds in our wars. However, it would be political suicide for Barack Obama. I really don’t see this happening, but it is good topic for conversation. I won't answer the poll. I can't say for sure yes or for sure no. PS: Kartman - thank you so much for your service. I do truly appreciate it.

So what’s the word Victorious Valentines? Anyone have any goals for their upcoming 2nd Bandiversary??? I’m thinking I want to get to 225. That will finally put me at a loss from where I left off. Woohoo… I think I can do it!! That’s only down 22 Lbs. That would be a loss average of 1.7 Lbs per week. That is so doable! Who’s with me? Challenge yourself? PS, I think I may even be down one or two from the last time I updated my weight on here. However Saturday is my official weigh in day. We’ll see J

Hello and welcome to LBT hlu J The more the merrier I always say! Good hopes for your journey. It’s a long road but will be worth every step.

I agree Daphne. Actually I find that coffee suppresses my hunger a bit. I may be in the minority however.

Oh wow… no dairy? That really would be tough for me. Not going to lie. Definitely let me know how you do! I think I might have lost a pound myself… however it’s not official weigh day until Saturday. Another boost though would be great!

Yes I totally agree. It is a very personal decision, but a very serious one too. I believe that all options should be weighed and researched. Nothing wrong with an informed decision, and not just by opinions from others either.

Good guess! But… nope. :redface:

That sounds like a pretty good plan. I eat chicken all the time anyway. It might be a good first week booster. I’ve had plenty of those anyway…

Hey look!!! I’m post #1,001!! Yay me. J Jen, what diet are you on? Maybe I can join ya! I’m supposed to be eating AT LEAST 2 pieces of fruit per day… Oh look at me. Just like me to skip stuff over. How did I miss that last paragraph??? I'm sorry you had a rough afternoon. I do hope you're to feeling better soon.

Hi Jeff, what I would suggest is possibly continue to look around until you find someone who will perform the Lap-Band for you. I don’t know many but there have been several I’ve seen who were needing to lose a few hundred pounds and were able to do it. It’s not impossible. I think the main factor in their decision is with the Lap-Band we tend to lose weight quite slowly. They maybe think since you have as much as you do it would be better to go for the more quick approach. However it is your body. Just as a word from the wise (someone WITH the Lap-Band) it’s not a surefire answer. Weigh your options and truly do the research on all of them. Do not be afraid of one over the other. They all run at least some risk to it, I mean it is after all surgery. Wishing you the best!

#2… Oh wow… this is getting tough already huh?

Hooray!! Laney you get the first point in this game! Good job! I will post #2 shortly J

Yes I am on Facebook also. Pretty much everyone on FB knows I’m either losing weight in some way or that I have had WLS. It doesn’t bother me if anyone knows or not, everyone there is super supportive and is very happy for me. I am also in the LapBandDivas group. I don’t check in a whole lot but I do have many friends on my Facebook that are also members here. If anyone wants to send me friend request, please PM me for my email address. Thanks!
