I guess I'm the lucky one cuz we have met !!! and gang I can tell you all she's a sweet sweet woman !!! Laura - I stick with the weight on my scale at home... The doc's is 4 lbs heavier - but again at home I'm naked where as at the doc's have clothes on... No Pie or Ice Cream not an approved mushie :0) - Juniperberries I think is what gin is made from !!!!

    Hi Larry Ya the band works !!! If you do the work !!! I've did 75% of the work by making this a total lifestyle change in my eating - I am not dieting I eat healthy and I go to the gym and walk the treadmill & got a personal trainer.. As you will understand being in th 50 age bracket - we have less years in front of us than what's behind us - I wanted to improve the quality of the years I have left and hopefully extend them too... So Ya is very doable - my doc said I lost like his bypass pple - I lost 105 in 1 yr - and the rest just came off as I continued my healthy lifestyle... You are a guy so you are luckier than us girls - you will lose faster :0) I still have treats but they are planned and budgeted for... I feel 10 yrs younger - have 1 mil % more energy - I went zip lining & repelling this past March on a cruise - 2 yrs ago I could barely walk the length of the ship without being exhaust... Yes bypass lose quickly - they have the whole malasorbtion thing going on - I didn't want that... The reason they lose so much quicker than us is that they don't absorb their calories - where as bander's do - - it's a personal choice - I have friends who had bypass - and I have Friends who have had the band - is either of the WLS more successful than the other - nope - it's up to the individual person - what determines success is changing our lifestyles and the way that we look at food... There are successes and failure in both - it's not the surgery that fails or succeeds but the person making the food choices & exercise.... Good Luck on your journey - and you are welcome here anytime .... Janet

    Candice Well after that pic and your comment - when Karri got out of the shower this morning - We measured each other - cuz we both said we were 5'4 - well she's more like 5'5 and I have SHRUNK !!! I was 5'3 3/4 (rounded up) well now I'm 5'2 !!! Heck I know I have aged - but I have shrunk already at only 54 !!!! Ok where in the HELL is everyone..... I take a couple of days off and you all quit posting - well gotta say I;m glad I didn't have pages to catch up on.... Well, got Karri off to the airport here plane left around 4:48 - and we cried.... I had such a wonderful time and ladies - I gotta tell you she isn't as ocd in real life !!!! She has come so far in the last year - we shared so much - and I really do beleive (and she did confirm) that this was the 1st time in years that she had any R&R - Her new job sounds so exciting - and she taught me a little science while she was here...

    Yep you got that right chickie (great minds) - I have been off since Friday - Oh how I could get use to the life of leisure :0) Back to work tomorrow ;0( - But really had a faboules time with my LBT DD Karri .... Thanks Charlene !!! Julie - OK GF I'm telling you 2 days full liquids - 2 day mushies and then regular - You can do this - if you think you can't you won't - so no more excuses - think positively !!!!! Darling - pre op's a B - I was lucky 1 week and I could have fish and salad for dinner - otherwise I would not have made it - I like sweets but not that much - those olives aren't going to do any harm - but #1 you gotta really really follow the rules after surgery - ok....

    Oh ya - Karri & I were talking last night - about who the winner of the challenge was. Karri lost the most 6 lbs - but as we were discussing last night - ALL OF US WHO LOST WERE WINNERS... And this was just a way to keep us on track or get back on track. So we came up with the idea - is that we add to our signature line Lucky #7 - June Weight Lost Challenge _______ then the lbs you lost - something like that We all were winner - we all helpped each other in getting the lbs off - So we all should share in the victory !!!

    Good Morning Gang Apples - Happy Band-Anniversary today !!! WTG !!! Meredith - WTG you are doing great - pre-op isn't easy- make homemade broth - it's so much better - save the meat and veggies for when you get to full liquids (freezed them) then thaw and blend.... Laura Glad your sis is doing well - and that you are getting back into your exercise - my trainer says you gotta keep up with it or it's easy to lose Long - Your 179 will come - I know how bad you want it - but remember 125 in 1 yr... Well Just a quick ck in before dd gets up - today is her last day - we were up till 1 last night - gotta be at the airport around 2:30 today Here's pic of Me & DD in our size 2 pants...

    Good Morning Gang.... Well today is our (karri/me) last day :0(.... I can't beleive how fast the time has gone by.. Here are our pic's from yesterday - Yep Mom & Daughter both in SIZE 2 pants !!!! This is the top that when I gave her to try on she looked at me like I was crazy !!!!! (we had a couple of things that she said that about) but being the good daughter that she is - she did what she was told and tried things on - and to her surprise I was right and she liked them !!!! She made dinner last night - scallops/shrimp alfredo (light of course) with her tofu noodles - they are a bit chewy - but good. We worked out with trainer last night and she did very well, but let's see if she can walk today :bored: We were up til 1 last night - gotta leave for the airport around 1 today - her plane leaves at 4... Yesterday - we went to Palm Springs - drove up and showed her the tram - had brunch - walked around a bit - ended up back a the mall for shapewear - Jamba juice - then the gym Then like I said talked till we couldn't keep our eye open.. Phyl - Glad you are flying - it cuts down on the traveling time and you get more time with us and family.. Candice - yep 136.5 - I'm not eating at night - I am sleeping but I don't expect them to stay there... But that's ok - 138 is just fine with me... Kari - Glad you applied for passport !!! What happend to Linda & Ruby !!!! Steph & Karla - you girls home yet ?? Want to see your pic's.. Karri - Good Morning Dear (she's cking lbt & fb) before she comes out of her room and that's ok cuz she isn't working

    Good Morning Gang Pj - I have emailed you I wasnt on the computer when you IM me (don't know what day it was) I hope you are better today.. Just a quick pop in - As you all know my lbt DD is here from Oregon so we have been talking and talking went shopping on saturday and yesterday did some wii EA and talked more...

They have never gotten there before and I don't expect them to stay ;0) ... but as long as they don't go above 140 I'm cool.

    Good Morning Gang Glad to see I don't have a million pages to catch up on.. #1 Girls we never have to worry about Karri and her eating again !!!! I have witnessed her eating in real life and the girl eat !!!! In fact I am straving her.. Not really but we eat at diff times she's a morning/afternoon eater - where as you all know I am a night time eater Plus the fact that we are talking so much so I don't think about food - but I do make sure she has breakfast.. We haven't done a lot - Saturday went shopping (my GD came too) she got a new wardrobe and colors that she never expected to get - cuz I had her trying on things that she would have never tried before.. Yesterday we did the Wii Active - at first she thought it was not enough exercise - but it got her sweating.... So I think she may get one.. Then we just sat around all day and talked. I gotta say for me she is great medince - I have slept thru the night since Friday - I don't snack at night cuz we are talk talk talking - and the scales this morning !!!!! 136.5 !!!! Today - I don't know what we are doing but need to get out of the house - going to look for some kind of tofu noodles and we have gym tonite... Haven't taken pics yet - heck yesterday we changed from p.j.s to workout clothes then back to p.j.s !!! So really we never got dress. I think this has been a good good vacation for her - no work - no running - she really is getting some much needed R&R.. She's so much wonderful in real life - Just like meeting the rest of you - there was no akward moments - it's like we have known each other forever... She's still sleeping - I gotta go figure out what to make for bf since she's a bf eater and I'm not... ;0) Having a great time - I will be sure to take pic's today - cuz tomorrow she leaves... ;o( Hugs & Love Janet

    Good Morning Gang!! My weight yesterday 139 -4lbs - I emailed the lucky #7 (suz the site was screwed up yesterday morning) but Karla I am going to have to add you to that list (need your email) cuz I couldn't get on the site.. I think Karri may have won oh wait Karla lost 5 too - so maybe we will have to do the precentage thing to determin the winner (like biggest loser but a math person is going to thave to figure that one out) - but will have to double ck w/her once she wakes up :0) - She went to bed friday at 11:30 p.m up at 2 a.m to leave for the airport - and we didn't go to bed til 11 last night - she's still asleep - I woke up about 7.. Phyl maybe it's best to go with the knee replacment now so that you can have better mobility and then pursue the thighplasty... Hugs I know how this bothers you - your legs my arm - karri's tummy - but again we would all take the saggy skin over the fat anyday - look how well you have done 100+ lbs gone - that is one accomplishment that you can't forget - ya we all still have issues but we have to look at where we are now and can't forget where we use to be.. I took my camera but was so excited when I saw Karri coming down the stairs that I totally forgot to take a picture... Will get some taken this weekend - It so funny just like the rest of us know who have met in person - once we do meet there is not awarkness - it's like we have known each other forever... Heck like I said the other day - I talk to you all more than I talk to pple who live around me :0) Candice - I want to see pics - sounds like you had a wonderful time and yes it's water... We all lost and that's what counts... We had our focus back - CONGRATULAATIONS TO ALL OF US WE ALL ARE WINNER AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT WE SHOULD PUT ON OUR SIGNATURE... Well DD just woke up - so talk to you later

    Good Morning Gang Sorry I haven't posted - but my DD from my Lucky #7 thread is coming to visit for 5 days and I have been cleaning shopping etc. Last night had a thing to go to after gym and just haven't had the time to get on the computer and work is busying trying to get my desk cleaned up for when I'm gone.. Hugs to all of you who have pple/family in your lives who aren't acknowledging your weight loss - or who think we are taking the easy route etc - they are totally self centered - ignorant and unkind - Just look at them and shake your head and say you just don't get it do you - now the subject is off the table - We just won't discuss - and yes those pple who don't comment - screw them too - I think some are afaird to say omg you were fat werent you they think that they will offend you.. As someone said this is about us not them it's about regaining control of our lives - and like I have always said and still beleive 1 mil % - no one understands a fat chick like another fat chick does - that is something that we all have in common - we know what it's like to be addicted to food - for those who aren't they just don't get it - just like pple who aren't addicted to drug - they don't understand why a drug addict just can't say NO... So when talking to these pple who have never struggled with their weight - just don't have this conversation with them - cuz no matter what you say they truly aren't going to understand our issue. Ok I gotta get to work - CBL Girls Keep up the good work - Meredith hugs on your pre-op whats your surgery date again so I can write it on my calendar??

    Good Morning Gang Went to the gym last night arms - then went to a Saladmaster Dinner Party (cookware sales presentation) Well this stupid lady Jan didn't show us til late and then complained when dinner wasnt ready.. She was werid acted drunk but I don't think she was.. Ok here's another NSV - I didn't know the pple hosting the party - I was invited by my trainer (this cookware no water no fat but hell it cost a million dollors) well the party started at 6:30 Idrise forgot that he had a client at til 7 - so he was going to be late - and he made me promise not to flake on him - well - off I go to pple I don't know house (the girl hosting is one of his clients but I haven't met her before) - That's pretty big - (Linda this isn't most likely something I would have done 112 lbs ago) But I just figure these pple can't hurt me - So maybe I am a little out going - or really I don't have my fat holding me back any longer - but I did put my foot in my mouht - the girl hosting is a little chubby (40 lbs overweight I guess - but she does look like she's big boned) don't remember exactly what I said - but her dh said that the reason she couldn't follow a strict diet is cuz they are out alot - drinking and socializing and it was hard to follow in those circumstances - I had same that we were food addicts and ate for tons of diff reasons - well I have become a food nazi which is ok here - but now w/pple you don't know - it was all excuses - but again I know how hard it is to say no when everyone else is saying yes - and there is a platter of potatoe skins in front of you and you had a couple of drinks. They made ck breast suppost to be super tender and cooked without oil - well hell my chick cooked on the BBQ was more tender - veggie not done enough for me - I like well done veggies - and this eggplant lasagan was ok - But again this stuff is outragously priced Starter set $2695 and electric skillet $895 ya right - I didn't think it was any better than my $89 set of pots and pans - but supposeityly you don't have all the bad stuff from the pans leaking into your food Well didn't get home til after 9:30 !!! This morning 35 min Wii - and tonite - grocery shopping - vacumming and tomorrow - 9:48 picking up my DD and getting to meet her for the 1st time.. Challenge - I am very close to the 5 - 4.5 lets see what it says tomorrow a.m. - but regarless if I make the 5 lbs or not - I have gotten a better handle on my food.. Phyl - I bet Earl changes his mind when he knows you are going to be gone 3 weeks without him - have you guys ever been apart that long (besides when he was in the service) Can't wait to hear about what doc's you fine - !!! Well gang I got to get my desk cleaned up before I leave tonite - so I will cbl Hugs

    Good Morning Ladies Well after work went and ordered my bro's headstone - now gotta copy everything bank statements etc to send to my sis - because " well the excuse is " I'm on the hook too - well gb she doesn't have a pot to piss in and what does she think I am writing checks to me... Ya right but what ever.. This is still a very very sore spot for me - I wish I could let it go and have to a degree cuz I do my scarlet impression - but then shit happend and I just was to say f you - Linda - I am not really outgoing - I can give great advice - but following it - well that's another story - I don't know what I would do if I was off for the summer or retired - I say I would go the college and take painting classes - but would I - I don't know - I want to - wanting and doing are 2 diff things. But again I am tired of being held back - I am tired of being afraid - I can't wait for someone to come and do things with me - I don't have a mate - so what am I to do - sit at home 24/7 - well you know where that gets you - more depressed and eating... Cant go back to that place.. Look at this we have a whole new group of friends - we are going to Canada this summer - Karri is coming Friday... Heck thru this surgery and journey we have made new connection that will last a life time... That in it's self is wonderful.. Phyl - Earl will come around - He's not going to want you to be gone what 2-3 weeks without him... After all these year I know you know how to work hime :eek: Karla - WTG on your 5 lbs....:eek: See the scales are never really going to be our friend - one day we love it the next day we hate it and you can't tell me that in one day you ate 7000 calories to make the scale go up 2 lbs !!!! That how I look at it - ya it might be up today - but I know that my eating is good - I try and take it instride. Well, once I got home I started cleaning - went into Andrew's bathroom (it's the guest bathroom) well you all know he's my little cleaner - but he is totallly a surface cleaner - I shut the door and OMW dust and grime on the back of the door and baseboards - so I cleaned his bathroom and then got even more pissed - looks like superglue is on the mirror :ihih: - well wtf can I do about it now - washed the garage down, got the guest room dusted - clean sheets - all I have to to is vacuum, - didnt sit down til 9:30.. Never got to the Wii and this morning got up at 4:30 but again never got to the Wii - ironed my clothes for the day - did a load of wash - cleaned my desk - etc.. Well have trainer tonite Arms - my legs are killing me from Monday and the lunges... Ok got work to do - CBL

    I have figured out it's pretty random - if you are doing yoga - you unlock a balance game or weight game - I just wanted to know if there are just 2 step games on the wii fit. I was thinking could put the balance board on a strudy box and really get muscles involved - as it is I may not be really working musclle - but gotta say I do work up a little sweat.. I did the EA Sunday - lot of track work - boxing - with knee & kick boxing - dance was really just the arms - that's all I remember - I am doing to go to the funeral home after work and order bro's head stone - it's been left up to me to do this... so I won't be going to the gym - so tonite Wii EA - I will jot down what I do and let you know what invovles knees.. So Earl doesn't want to do any vacation this year ? You guys always go to buffalo dont you - have you taked to a doc about your knees & PS...

    Good Morning !!!! 1 hr Wii fit this morning - I'm like Candice I like the step did that and then some leg thingie - then tightrope - sking and something else see I have already forgotten.. Linda I love the Wii - Maybe cuz it's new and I love the challenge to improve my scores - As to being lonely - don't you have any GF in your town ??? I guess this is where you and I are a little diff - I like being alone most of the time and when I don't I call a gf to do something with - You need to find a hobby - do you have a community college near you that you can join and take fun classes - like exercise - painting etc... Or at our local community centers there is always something fun going on like salsa classes - yoga - painting - card - I don't remember what else- but when I get the little booklets in the mail - I think oh that would be fun but they are all in the day time when I am at work. What about your clinic - can't you go volentear there during the day to get you out of the house - I guess if I didn't work being by myself after a while would get lonely... You just got to get out of the house some how some way.. Candice - what do I have to do to unlock another step class??? Karri - I would think Candy lady would be happy you are gone :0) but now I guess she's jealous cuz no one asked her to go to the charter school Steph - hope you got some sleep last night - and have done your Wii this morning... Ruby - where did you disappear too... Kari - NO SODA TODAY !!! Phyl & Karla - Hope today is a better for both of you,... Denise - did you ck out the Wii EA - I like it... Well gotta get my butt in gear

Make realistic goals - I say that your 1st goal was 36 lbs in less than a month - GF come on now - you aren't a bypass person - take that off your signature - only make realistic goals - if you set the bar to high and fail - it's another reason to say screw it I give up... Normal weight loss is 1 - 2 lbs a week. So strive for that 1 lbs a week and anything more will be icing of the cake ...

    Ok GF the 1st thing you do is go buy a stupid scale - then you weight 1st thing in the morning after you have peed & pooped (i know tmi) and weight totally naked !!!! If you aren't weighing in the same clothes then there is no way to tell.. Just keep on keeping on - what the carbs and drink your water - how's your restriction doing - it's not going to come off over night - some weeks I only lost 1/2 a pound - but all those 1/2 adds up each week and each month... I think it's the full moon !!!! Kari - Wii Fit & EA are my new transfer addiction - spent 6 hours yesterday playing the diff exercise games - alot better than sitting 6 hrs in front of the computer on my butt.... Yes I went today and ck'd my crops - see I have lost ALOT - well it's just a stupid computer game - so no biggie - I am loving my Wii - and have been too busy at work to play there since Karri is coming to visit on Friday - So no can't say I have quit forever - just not my main priority right now.. Since you aren't going to the gym you should invest in one ... It can become your new transfer addiction too... And it's alot more healthier for you... You will reap real benefits not imaginary ones :0) Have you gotten your passport yet !!! OK girls - run to my house !!! We can swim - plant flower- play Wii and all eat healthy together - it's not really about losing 5 lbs in 2 weeks - that's a big big amount in 2 weeks - it's about staying on track or getting back on track if you have fallen off.. That's all - who care if you only lose 1 lbs - its a loss and that's what truly matters... Phyl - sorry that Earl's being a butthead - wish I had some advice there - but alas I'm single for that very reason don't want to put up with the 3 days of bad - even for the 4 days of good - I can do that all by myself Weigh in isn't till Friday anyway - and I don't think I will make the 5 either and I hiked on Saturday - played 6 hrs of wii yesterday and 1 hr today and have been eating well.. So don't sweat the 5 lbs - just keep on track - we all know that some weeks the scales aren't our freinds no matter how hard we work.. Hugs - Tomorrow will be a better day !!!! Ok 23 months out and I get to report a NSV !!! Today was legs w/trainer - he had us do walking lunges - Well guess what - I can touch my back knee on the floor !!!! it's taken 15 months of working out - but I can do it - I can do it !!! Well it's 9 I haven't eaten - my spinach is draining and so I am off to eat... Keep up the good work girls - you are worth it - the scales might not show it today - but in the long run they will... Hugs & Sweet Dreams
