I just have to let everyone know how badly I wanted an ice cream cone tonight but I didn't do it! Instead I'm sitting here sipping on a flavored Water. Yeah baby! Day 2 of no junk here!

I have often wondered the same thing. I have never in my teenage/adult life been a "normal" size. I was a size 24 in the 8th grade, and then a 22 when I graduated, and a 20 in college. I eventually worked my way up to a size 30, and am now stuck between a 26 and 28. I often times wonder how my life would change should I even get back down to even a size 20 again. (I have huge bones and am mid height, so I look hot at a size 20 and 200 pounds!) I have already promised myself that I refuse to "sell myself out" or sell myself short by befriending those post weight, who don't seem to find me "fit" enough to be their friend now. I say Poo Poo to them and I don't want any shallow/lame friends anyway! The ones that I have now love me for who and what I am, and those are the ones that I'll stick with afterwards too, thank you very much! I wish you all of the luck in the world. This race/game can sometimes feel so cruel, and we all really need each other to make our ways through it to the end!

She had her surgery yesterday it looks like. I wonder how she did?

Happy Birthday!!!!

Oh Cindy, that's so sweet!

I'm game for no ice cream, no fast food, and no pop for XX amount of days. We usually only eat out once per week anyway, but I'm willing to give that up too. And we didn't buy any ice cream this week, so I'm willing to keep that out of the house too. And although pop is usually a rarity, it's been rearing its ugly head as of late, so it can go too!!! Flavored Water, here I come baby!!!! Yeah!!!

Your chips look so good that I won't even attempt it! I honestly can say that mine wouldn't be as fancy, so I vote to use yours. LOL They look great!!!

You go girl! You rock!!!

I'd be willing to make some "chips" for your voting purposes. They'll be simple, but I'll volunteer for the cause. Give me until tomorrow night and I'll some samples for you.

When I threaten my son with a spanking I'll say, "Do you want a patty on your po po?!?!?!" He'll usually just look at me like I'm nuts, flash a huge grin, then say, "Okay!".

Eeek gads!

I love his movies (Mission Impossible) but yeah, he's gotten a tad weird even for this liberal momma!

I still stand by my money clip idea.

I thought maybe money clips.????

Oh I forgot.......hubby calls mine "kitty" too. P.S. I was telling hubby about some of these and got him to laughing too. This is a great thread for a laugh and a half!

Glad that you weathered through the storm unscathed!!! Congrats on your weightloss and welcome back!

It does for me, but I've not had a fill yet. I only eat it maybe once or twice a month though. I used to be a pasta/bread addict, but now it's a rarity. I guess I just try to eat my protein first.

I have some of the Mineral Makeup and LOVE it!!! The first time I used it I was blown away by how smooth and soft it made my skin look. I don't use it everyday (usually because I'm just hangin out at home and don't want to waste it on that) but I love how radiant my skin looks when I do use it. I hope you love it as much as I do. It doesn't clog your pores like traditional foundation, and doesn't feel all heavy and nasty like the thick foundations either. I'm really picky about how my face feels, and this stuff feels nice and airy and light. Good luck and let me know what you think!!!

Too weird. Somehow the thought of eating a spoonful of carbonated yogurt just isn't that appealing.

Mine is Trinity. My LapBand surgeon goes by a 3 stage or triangular process to ensure that your band will help you lose weight. 1. The Band, 2. Exercise, 3. Eating Healthy. So here's introducing my Trinity.

This is so funny that I was actually thinking about it again last night while trying to fall asleep. LOL Tampons are "lollipops" around here. (Mom started that back when I was a teenager so as not to embarrass me in front of my dad and younger siblings. It's just kind of carried on with me.) His member has also been known to be referred to as "schlong" or "Johnson". Sometimes it's "woodyallen" too. LOL

Good luck to you Mary. I'm so sorry that you are dealing with all of this. I hope that it is something easily treated and nothing major. Please rest up and take good care of yourself. Lots of Lovins, ~Kel

My husband calls my nether regions "pie" or "poontang pie". I call it my pootinanny or pootie. And of course my friends that hang on my chest are "the girls" or my husband likes to say my "dirty billows". His I often refer to as his "peetong" and "wingbanger".

I had my gallbladder taken out at age 19 and have not had problems with that since. I know when they were trying to figure out what was wrong with me for my Pericarditis they checked me for that and it came back all clear. Did they do an ultrasound of your heart? Not trying to scare you, but I'd have it all checked out. Especially since the pain was in your chest area. Best wishes to you, ~Kel

Sorry I'm no help either. I have massive bones, thus a massive frame. I've had multiple docs tell me not to worry about getting below 150 or I'll look like a walking stick. 150? Please just let me see 200 again!!!
