Welcome to bandland! Please go to the introduction thread and introduce yourself. We have lots of support here. You also might want to read some of the older thread, or do some serches on any subject you might be interested in. Please post with us often.

mmmmmmm I love King cakes! My boss always brings one into work!

Good Luck, please post when you can and let us know how you are.

Come on Darcy! I always have an extra bed!

Did I hear it is snowing in Vegas??? We folks from Texas thought we would share a little bit of that cold with you since you never get to see it. When they showed it on the news, I thought of you Lisa!

I doesn't burn any, or I would be really skinny! It was nice here today, but tomorrow is going to be 70, so that means I can go for a Harley ride.

My doctor's office said coffee was fine. In fact, they served me coffee the day of surgery.

Sorry to hear that Penni, hopefully things will get better for you soon.

Whooo Hoooo Becky! All those things makes a big difference in every day life. You are one amazing gal!

I love those pictures, we use to go to Tucson every year until my father-in-law passed away. You brought back a lot of memories for me, thanks! Enjoy your relaxing time. Don't forget to take a good look at the stars while you are there, they are the prettiest I have ever seen.

Leatha - When you came to pick me up that day for our overnighter, I thought to myself that you are so tiny. I expected to see a bigger woman. Your picture sure don't do the justice, you are so much prettier and petite in person. I guess when we look at ourselves we just don't see us the same way as others see us.

Misty - What you are feeling is natural, we have all had those feelings. You wouldn't be human if you didn't. It really isn't as bad as you think it is, the time goes by pretty fast. Not every doctor has you do liquids for that long, did your doctor tell you how long he wanted you to do liquids? Make sure you do research everything and make the decision. This is not an easy out for losing weight, but I love my band and wouldn't trade it. You are the only one that can make the decision.

Thin or heavy, I can't imagine my life without my hubby. We met when I was thin, dated for a lot of years, and married when I was heavier. I have lost and gained weight the whole time. We have too much of a bond to ever let weight come between us. We do everything together. We ride our harleys, fish, swim, go on trips, we just do it all together. Only a couple of times in our whole marriage have we even spent nights away from each other. I can honestly say any weight loss I have will not be a statistic in the divorce column. I think any marriage that breaks up after a weight loss is one that wasn't on solid feet to start with. My husband is my best friend, and I can't think of anyone else I would rather spend the rest of my life with but my best friend.

Welcome to bandland Kate! Each day will get better for you. Walking helped me more than any of the meds did.

Marie - You have done so good! I love that you are in a size 12. Cooking at home is good, at least you can control what you fix.

WhoooHoooooo Leatha! :banana :banana :banana :banana I am so happy for you!

Good luck! Let us know how it goes!

Women's Ass Size Study" *There is a new study just released by the American Psychiatric Association about women and how they feel about their asses! *The results were pretty interesting: *1. 85% of women think their ass is too big.. *2. 10% of women think their ass is too little... *3. The other 5% say that they don't care, they love him, he's a good man, and they would have married him anyway!!!!

Hi Janie, welcome back, you have been missed! You will lose those 2 pounds before you know it!

Welcome! All the feeling you are going through are natural ones. Keep busy, read all you can about WLS, practice drinking slowly and not with meals. The time will pass by so fast it will be here before you know it. Good luck and keep us posted on your journey to bandland.

What a precious baby! You look beautiful too!

Been there, done that too! This time it will stay off though! Good Luck!

Whoooo Hoooo!!!! That is great! You look so wonderful, it was worth every penny!

Good Luck and keep trying. Sometimes the wait is worth it!

You both look fantastic! You have done so well! Thanks for sharing your picture. I love Deb's dress!
