Woohooo-you go girl.

Congratulations, get ready to see those pounds drop. Remember this is the slower WLS, so patience my dear, which is what I need right now too.

Awwww, I'm blushing. That was so sweet of all of you to take the time to post to Lil O Me. I plan on making it a day of leasure, you know, pedicure, shopping, just things I want to do. Thanks again.

Good Luck Laura, I'm so happy for you. You'll do great, after all, that's my birthday. Please give us a quick post when you're up to it. My mom goes in a couple of weeks, April 7th for her band. . I don't know what I was thinking for my last "meal", I had a waffle, and it wasn't even good, although the company was great, my son and two grandsons. A gyro, mmmm that does sound good. You'll be able to eat it again, just not for a while. I wish you the berry best.

Karen, I just noticed we were banded 4 days apart. Since my partial unfill, I think I have about 1.2 in my band now. Haily's MO?

I would like to explain my comment above. The reason for wanting to retire her avatar is so no one else can use it, NOT because I mind seeing her smiling face, because for me, when I see the avatar, her blonde hair and beautiful smile is what I see. Though the reminders of Blossom remind me I am sad she is gone, it makes me happy to know I had the pleasure to "know" her.

Hurry up and wait, don't ya just hate that. Good luck on the weight, I mean wait.

Sasssy, it's good to see you have listened to your body. As Martha would say,"that's a good thing". I'm proud of you girl!

That's the upsetting thing when threads get bumped, usually sweet Blossom's in there somewhere. Just seeing her avatar each time makes me sad. I wish there was some way we could retire her avatar, like they do in sports.

If I drink anything before I eat I have more of a tendacy to pb, that is when I have restriction mind you. So, I try not to drink 30-20 minutes prior to eating.

Sorry to hear about the port too, where and who did the surgery?

I make a shake and add Benefiber, I can't tell where it's working for me either. Alex, you actually put it in your coffee? It does not affect the taste? Hummmm. As for the disgusting IMO prune juice, I was holding my nose and drinking it, nothing!

Debbie, I'm in Virginia, the Newport News, Yorktown area. Let me know if I can help. I'm very happy with my doctor and his staff.

OMG girl what a difference, you've got to be so much happier. That was very special of you to share this with us, then again, you've got so much to be proud of...you go girl!

It worked for me, ya definately gotta have Adobe.

I love seeing the wonderful difference weight loss makes. You look great, I'll have to try to do duplicate of my before now that I've lost 32 lbs.

I still go out with friends, I just always leave with a doggy bag. I've been blessed with good wishers, no sabotagers.

I agree with the others, rethink your menu. More protein for more than staying full, you want to stay healthy. I try to stay away from all starches, especially bread and pasta. When I've fixed spaghetti, I've used the wheat and my family never noticed. Are you eating because you're really hungry or are you bored. I know when I stay home all day I eat much more or think I'm hungry more often than if I'm not here by the fridge and pantry. Good luck stay in touch and nobody's fussing at ya, just giving you food for thought, excuse the pun.

The tummy part doesn't bother me, it's that scratchy, aggrivating, irritating rubbing between the legs. It always feels like one legs is on higher than the other, errrr! Estela, you should have patented them, now they sell something similar on QVC or HSN, one of those shows. So glad spring is here, no more knee highs for me, let the toe show begin.

I know EXACTLY how you feel. I had to have an unfill, and I'm hyper when it comes to needles, so you know I must have needed it. I think you're taking a step in the right direction.

For a twist Vicki, get a soft taco and scrape the stuffing into the beans and cheese, yummmm.

OMG, I've only had tuna about 6 times this week, no wonder I can't focus, focus, focus.

Mekalah is a minature of Nan, the one with the squeaky nasal voice. She was fun in the beginning, but she's outta her league. The chick with the mohawk, she's too pretty to be doing that mess with her hair, she's has talent and doesn't need the prop. Jessica if that was the name of the last girl to perform did a good job too.

There's some sort of todo this AM about wrong phone numbers given out and the show has to be repeated. Just heard a mention of it, still waiting for the scoop.

I often wondered what happened to the inside as we lost weight.
