What a beautiful family you have Superdaddy!

Yep, major difference! Keep up the great work woman! You are doing fantastic!!!!!!!!

Aw! Look at that baby boy! He is soooo cute Wheetsin! Makes me wanna scoop him up in my arms and give him kisses on top of his little head!!!!

I'm just now seeing this but wanted to offer my support. I wish you the best on this, and am praying that it is not a slip, or that if it has slipped a little, that it will go right back into place for you. Keeping my fingers crossed for you girl! Hugs, ~Kelly

I was on prednisone for a month and gained about 10 pounds. I was CONSTANTLY hungry and ate like a ravenous wolf. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I don't think it's possible to lose weight while on that medication. I would just continue to eat healthy and do the best that you can possibly do. Once you're off the medication, then you can continue with your weightloss goals. Sorry you have to be on it, and like the others mentioned, maybe you can see if they could put you on something else instead. Best wishes to you.

Congrats to him and you both! I wish him and you all of the success in the world with your bands. How awesome that you can support each other in your continued success. Kudos to you both!

I'm so glad to see you back! I prayed for you the day of your surgery and also tried calling you earlier in the day. I was so concerned about you! I'm so grateful to see that you are doing well now, and please know that I'm here for you if you need me. All of My Love, ~Kelly

Congrats and welcome!

That is SO COOL!!! Thanks for sharing!

Congratulations!

LOL@That Paula! That is great! So is yours JohnDeereGal!!!

I agree too Vines! When I looked into this I looked around online. Luckily I didn't have to look very far to find the best surgeon possible. And even though I no longer have insurance, I'd gladly pay her cash out of pocket anyday over someone less experienced or less qualified, even if it was cheaper. This woman (my surgeon) called my hospital here when I was sick with Pericarditis to see how I was doing, and also offered the attending doctor any info about the band that he needed to know. (She didn't have to do this obviously, but cared enough about me to do so.) I cannot say enough good things about my surgeon and her qualifications and caring/kind ways. That means more to me than a cheaper way out anyday.

Glad to hear that she's doing well. I'm sure her spirits will improve with time as well.

That's horrible!!! I hope that you make it through ok, and that you didn't swallow any plastic.

Everyone looks great! Jacilyn, you and your daughter are both beautiful! And look at that baby girl! What a cutie pie! I love her dress!

I tried calling her earlier in the afternoon yesterday and there was no answer. I am concerned for her too, and hope that everything went well for her.

Congratulations to you Pat!!!

I just said a prayer for your brother!!! May God touch and heal his body now in Jesus' mighty name!

I think I just tolerate the cold, I've never really gotten used to it. I still am not the fondest of the sub zero temps, but I have learned to layer those clothes and wear those gloves! The warm tea/drinks are always nice after a long night at work, and a warm blankie never hurts either!

Oh no!!! My heart is so sad for you. I am so glad that they could schedule your surgery so quickly for you, and that you will be on the road to recovery very soon. My poor sweet girl! All of my love and prayers for a fast surgery and fast healing. Lots of Love, ~Kelly

Welcome to LBT!

My best wishes to her for a speedy recovery!!!

Agreed! Let's hear it for our LBT guys! HOO-RAH! HOO-RAH! *Says in my best marine style voice*

My band doc will not give you a fill unless you are exercising 5 days per week, eating properly, and have not lost any weight in at least a month's time. She was very upfront with me about this before surgery, and the rules are still the same.

You look great!!! I'm glad that you had so much fun, because it sounds like you needed that. Keep your head up girl!
