No problems here staying on! It might be on your end.

Good luck and have a safe trip! We'll see you in bandland!

Congradulations to you! It feels so good to be able to drop that size! Sometimes we forget that even when the scales don't show a big drop, that we are also losing inches. Now, enjoy cleaning out all those too big clothes from your closet!

I'll definately be wearing my RED on Friday! I can't express enough how much I appreciate all the men and women that are fighting for our freedom. Thank you Greg for bringing this to our attention. You can be asured that I will send it to as many people that I can. I might add here a "special" thanks for your part in fighting for our freedom. I appreciate ya!

I use salad dressing, like Ranch, it's easy to get and works fine for me.

Trish it is probably just nerves! I hope you start feeling better though!

Michelle - I was going to say the same thing you did! so I will just second what you said!

You are normal! I have had 4 fills and still am not very restricted. Hang tight, it will work for you!

Thanks Kelly - I hope no one got hurt, that is my main concern. I won't know till late tonight or early tomorrow if anyone was. Thanks for keeping everyone in your prayers.

Thanks Paula, my area has now been cleared, I haven't heard what all towns have been damaged. It is in the Waxahatchie area right now. We have lots of Texans on here, please check in and let us know you are alright.

Welcome to LBT! It is only natural to be scared, after all it is major surgery. I think we all go through the scared bit. Try to relax, it will be the best thing you ever did for yourself. There is a lot of infomation on this board and lots of support too. Please browse through the old and new posts and maybe you will feel a little bit better about the surgery. Please keep us posted on your journey. Please don't run away, you will be glad you did this for yourself.

OK Trish, how are you doing today? Give us an update! I know you are so excited, and I am excited for you!

You can do it, just buckle down!

Ewwww that fish thing sounds terrible! I don't cook in my Micro just warm up! Now I am glad that is all I use it for!

If everything else fails, you can take a laxative.

Becky - Friday will be here before you know it! Just keep eating those popcicles! Are you just on any liquid diet or are you on a clear liquid diet? If it doesn't have to be clear, you can blend almost anything and eat it. I found the cream soups were great, and I also made my own potato Soup and blended that too and it was so good! Good Luck, and keep us posted. If you get nervous, just keep coming here and posting, we have all been there and know what you are going through.

Jello, Tropicana has some really good drinks out now too, the orange is really yummy. Sobe lean has some new good drinks too. Laughing cow cheese is a good one too.

I keep saying it will be here before you know it! It really does go faster than you think it will!

Alex that is a great NSV! :banana

I saw them in the freezer section. There are also all kinds of South Beach foods on the shelves now too.

Pm Debbydo, she is starting a list I think and she will add you to it.

Whoooo Hooooo! See, good things do come to those who wait! Let the countdown begin! Be sure to add your name to the list for May! :banana

If you are losing 1-2 pounds a week, that is exactly what you should be losing. Just getting a tighter fill won't necessarily make you lose more weight, in fact it might slow you down. You should discuss this with your doctor, but you are losing at the proper rate right now.
