The size of your band really doesn't matter - You got banded in March - You may need a fill - IMHO you need to know the # of calories you are eating a day - You need to always eat protein 1st - then veggies and then starches - I eat limited starches - kept my calories between 800-1200 during my weight loss phase and exercised 4-5 times a week (mostly 5). Losing weight is all about calories in vs calories burned even with the band - our bands don't make our food choices for us and exercise is key. Even with the band - I get hungry - I still have head hunger issues and I'm 3 yrs out.. My doc requires that you go back to post op diet after a fill - one week each phase..

Good Morning Gang Bella needs to change her clock - I get up at 5 not 4:30 a.m. !! Well today's going to be a tough day at work - I think we have someone quiting - their producer is a butthead - if she does - she will be the 2nd one to quit cuz he's an AH.. Karla - How long have you lived there now??? Well I guess winter is coming - so you are going to be forced into staying inside and getting things done - but you gotta get the crap out of the house that's not staying now - you don't need to junk it up with stuff you aren't keeping - so 1 more yard sale before the snow ;0) I'm with you about not doing any extra - if you aren't getting paid for it - so sad too bad - they can find someone else

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CANDICE HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU !!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY CANDICE HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU !!! Hope you have a FANTASTIC birthday Welcome to the #55 we are the same age as the yr we were born !! :cursing::party::thumbup::smile2: :smile::cake::cool:

Hi Dixalee How's your restriction - What are you eating - are you keeping a food log - whats the # of calories you are eating and are you exercising.. Need more info to help ...

Good Evening Gang... Well done w/jury duty for another yr .. Got picked to be interviewed - but then we left for lunch came back and the guy must have took the deal -(he robbed someone and I bet you a million bucks he did it - he looked like a mean gang banger - so back to the jury room we go and wait some more - 3 they call us in to a court room 3 week trial - got off that once cuz the lady who's Paul's other Acct Manager will be gone the month of sept - so done for the yr.. Karri - You will land on your feet - you will be ok - I know this is tough but you aren't some little weakling - you are strong and you will get through this - you have a plan - and it's going to work.. Candice - I not really my food - mostly I allow for sf ice cream at night ;0) about 1 cup - I hate saying that cuz I don't want the rest of you to eat like me - we at least till you exercise like I do and get to goal :cursing: But really haven't changed my eating - my workout partner said today that I look even smaller - but the scales are staying at 136 - so maybe I am leaning out (more muscle less fat) I don't know if the guy was making decision today or next Monday.. It is what it is - I am just thrilled that I was approached... That's good enough for me... As to your food - well - after tomorrow - You are going to get back on the straight and narrow - I mean it... You are going to do the 5 day pouch test - and purge your body of all that sugar you have been consuming.. Peter's birthday looks like a blast - love the pic of you dancing and the pic of you and Peter and Brian coming out of the pot ;0) And to being asked for advice - hell since when have any of us let something like that stop of from giving it ;0) Hell I do it everyday - I don't ask - I do.. Well its almost 8 need to go eat ... CBL

Good Afternoon Gang Had jury duty today - even got call up to the jury box - come back after lunch - well the guy must have copped a deal - He looked real real mean - 30+ most likely gang banger his whole life - sitting there he had a scowl on his face - didn't help his situation any - He was on trial for Robbery.. So they send us back to the jury room - at 3 get called for another case - trial would be til 9/17 - well the lady I work with is gone for the month of Sept - so got excused from that one.. Would have liked to sit on the 1st one - expected to be 3 days.. I'll do a short trial ... I feel it's my American duty - That's what the constitution say and I am red white and blue Well I'm dress for gym - Weights arms tonite ... Laura - How was the gym... Melissa - Hugs - it shouldn't be all on your shoulder - that's not fair.. Take the jewelry go to diff jewelry stores - they all pay diff prices - have the garage sale - You & family in my prayers.. Julie - If I need company all I have to do is pickup the phone - but again - I do work all week so I enjoy the down time - if I was like you home then it might be a diff story.. But since only get 2 days - I do enjoy them ;0) I can't sing - but with a few cocktail - I've done it as back up singer in Mexico and did you lost that loving feeling here in town - but again had quite a few drinks - I'm not super bad as long as I keep it low (I have a low voice - have been confused as a man on the phone) awe I'm most likely bad at a low note too - ;0) So ya we can karoke :0) I can tell you all from personal experience = Phyl is just as bad as the kids now a days w/her phone ... lol... Phyl I don't know what you did - eyebrows done?? or just that you had hair and make up - you look absolutely beautiful Charlene - Ya it will work out - Hope the baby comes soon I started this before I went to the gym - girl called from work - all upset - she may be quiting - then I had gym - just now getting back on the computer.. Did find out though the place where she might go - asked about me ;0) - we at least I know I have a place if they ever piss me off bad enough ;0) Well going to post to see who has posted..

Good Morning Peeps Jury duty this morning - Steph - Hugs on towns deaths - for being so small you sure do have alot.. Don't your kids have chores - I think it's good for them to have them - they need to learn to pickup after themselves. It's a team effort to keep the house tidy.. Hell- I was drying dishes I think since the age 5 ... Weekend I we had chores - clean bathrooms - dust etc and my mom was a stay home mom when I was young Make a schedule - post it on the frigde and everyone has 1 chore a day to do.. Karla - Good luck at school today.. Phyl - I love the hair you otta blow it out like that more often and make up ... You are the prettiest sister !!!! Love the pics - glad you had a good time.. Candice - Can't wait to hear about the party and tomorrows someone elses special day :thumbup: Linda - how did your weekend go.. ok need to hit the shower - don't have to be to the court til 8 but if you want parking you gotta get there early..

Good Evening Gang... Well went to gym @ 9 - did 1 hr turbo kick boxing and then my Pilos class got cancelled - (teacher sick) so the girl (Michelle) said if enough pple stayed she would do body lift (working w/bar weights) so I stayed - but I did weights yesterday and my legs are sore and I do weights tomorrow (arms) but I stayed and did it - couldnt give legs 100% but moved - so 2 hrs in the gym - came home showered and went an did my weekend shopping for food - have chicken Soup on the stove.. Watch Brooklyn's Finest - GREAT MOVIE !!!! Never got ironing done ;0) - Have jury duty tomorrow - ck it this morning and I have to report - it says 8 but you gotta be there early to find parking.. I love the peace and quite of the house.. Just me and my zoo - they are feed (bella has pooped outside) haven't found any in the house - so I think she's getting it ;0)... Judy - I think that saying what we are thankful for is great - but it might be a day that pple need to vent - I hear you about what you are saying - but I don't look at us complaining all the time - heck most of our post are about what we did for the day - or maybe didn't do (like eat healthy or not get the ironing done) So Tuesday -When Apples and Great come back - It will be - What are you thankful for tuesday.. Hugs Melissa - $500 ded I have that and my co pays don't go towards my ded - I think I have $5000 out of pocket then insurance covers 100% - now a days most pple have that kind of policies - cuz health insurance cost so much - My employer gives us $500 towards our health insurance a month - that's how much my policy is - I think I pay a little to have 80% instead of 70% covered.. I know that for pple who have families covered under their policies they pay about what you are.. Have you looked in to a small business policy under your husbands business. Hugs on the money issues - hopefully you will find a job soon.. Charlene - Andrew has club foot - so he can't serve - I would push it otherwise.. Cheri - I can't sing a note - wish I could - but I sound good in my car :0) Jessica - Can DS wear huggies (the big boy kind) to school - that would be aweful for him to have an accident at school .. Well gang I am going to go read - cbl

Well think I am going to go read for a bit... CBL....

Good Morning Peeps Hugs for our sleepless ones ;0) Linda Julie Melissa & Laura Linda - If it wasn't for my DIL my DS would be up a creek.. Hugs - I know just how you feel (OMG we are alike) I have enjoyed my time alone this weekend - I love Andrew to death but can't wait till he can move out - his only 19 and a pt job isn't going to cut it for rent - but I look forward to the day - I don't have the added responsiblities of having him live here.. So I really hear you on SDD and being stuck w/GD all the time (even though I know you love her (GD) like I love GS) Melissa - I thought that that your employer has to pay 65% of your corba if you got laid off?? Laura - Great pic's of Nelson Julie - Sorry for the pain - they will help you - yes think postitive.. Well it's almost time for me to get ready for they gym been up since 5 have the house vacuumed - kitchen cleaned - bed made - bills ready for the 1st - CBL

Good Morning Candice Hope the party was a hit.... Linda - How did the bbq go Phyl - did you survive the party Steph - Farm?? your fil ?? Karla - ya - some stuff I just don't remember - i guess it's just not that important to remember when DS washed his clothes ;0) - I know he was a big though - not like Andrew ... That I remember he would leave towels all over the house - still does I think ;0) That was nice of your boss - it's nice when pple do stuff like that.. Well I've been up since 5 - Bella woke me up at 4 - took her potty then back to bed - then she started kissing me again at 5 - so I got up - got the house vacuumed - kitchen clean - bed made - have gym at 9 - colored hair last night then gave myself an oil treatment so going to have to wash that out before gym - cuz it looks like an oil slick ;0) Need to do my weekly shopping - get bills read to pay on the 1st and then Iron clothes so I can get dressed in the mornings.. cbl

Steph Melissa (andrew's stepmom) had him washing his own clothes in 3rd grade & ironing too.. A little young imho.. But yep Michael is old enough - just shut his door.. Well you aren't having a super busy weekend then - good.. Karla - I don't remember when I stopped washing Joseph's clothes - most likely 15 ish - Hell I don't remember..

Eva 4 miles WTG - Thats about a 20 min mile:thumbup: LOL Famous - Ya right - they wouldn't really want me to be a spokes person for lb - I would tell pple - your food choice are up to you not the band - and doc's but the band in so many just cuz of the $$$.. I don't know anyone who failed the shrink test - and do you even have to have one in Mexico.. We havent gotten any rain - but temps high 90's for the next couple of days - it's nice out side right now and this morning I opened the back door and front door.. Eat some seafood for me - Maryland - is crab right ;0) Maybe the baby has come - I don't think Charlene has posted today.. Cheri - Texting is a pain in the butt imho - but again I don't have a texting phone - plus I don't have interent on my phone - I'm home more than I am not and I have the house computer..

You go girl - they look great :0) Cheri - Only 80 lbs - Girl that's a lot of weight - so leave the only off !!! I would rather spend the $$$ on the face - that's what pple see - a good pair of shapewear is just as good as a TT ;0) and a good bra just as good as a lift - but the whole world sees our faces ;0)

LauraK - Thanks - I forgot how loyal you were - aren't you the one who was going to get us on the Oprah show to tear her a new one about her thinking WLS was the easy way out - omg if all of us from this board could get on there - we would show her wouldn't we.. Oh know I think that was Linda who was suppose to do that.. Salsa - sounds good but - then I want mexican food which for me requires cheese and it's something that I do limit - Marie - Welcome !!! Jump right in !!! We are all here for you !! Linda Ya I do look heathlier don't I - might have something to do w/my bottle tan ;0) - no I really do agree I look healthier - the blue blouse was a before for yet another diet - I think it was 5/06 and I was going on opitfast w/a gf - well that didn't last long ;0) Even when I was obese - I would prance around if I thought I had a cute outfit on .. Oh they took Merry's whole leg - I don't know why but I thought she would have a stump.. Looks really good though - she looks good.. I have never given mine ice cream ;0) they are fat enough.. As to your fair food - it was one day and you are allowed to enjoy - when I'm on vacation or away from home - i have a few more treats than what I do at home - home is my safe haven and when I get home - I go back to healthy eating - Like when I met Peaches in LV one yr - I had busicuts and gravey for Breakfast - when I went to Temecula w/my gf a month or so ago - I had busicuts and gravy for bf - I just eat like that occassionally not every day - that's the secert - just every now and then - eat healthy 98% of the time - treats 2% and I don't think of those as cheats - but last night was a waste ;0) - but had to tell cuz of that - it was a waste of precious calories and it didn't taste good - and that I kept on eating it instead of throwing it away..

Personally - Im not a big boob girl - I would love a lift but no implants - I'm a saggy b and I'm find w/that - would like to be a perky b ;0) But if you want them go for it...

Karla Sounds like a successful yard sale - but hell everyone wants stuff cheap at a yard sale - who are you going to give it aways too ;0) OMG it's cold there - it's 96 here - and suppose to be that way for the next couple of days - but it's windy - I'll take the heat over the wind.. but it will cool down my pool that in the 90 so that will be good - maybe I can use it.. What's for dinner - I have steak marinating - squash cooked -

Good Afternoon Gang... Talked to my DD - she's ok.. She is strong and is doing as well as can be expected (going to miss her students) but it's all going to work out.. OMG Phyl - you look wonderful - I thought at first who's that lady with Earl - I didn't recognized you!!! Love the hair and make up - you should wear it more often ;0).. Who's son got married (which sister) how's the niece w/the bad bf.. Beautiful bride and groom and cute baby (the real one not zoey;0) - but she looks cute w/your hat ;0) Ya at Ralph's and my wedding we had to take his parents back to their hotel (wiskey petes) and we were in down town LV - didn't want to leave the party - but w/my family they were still partying when we got back.. Linda - Yep we seem to take life for granted at times.. Hope you get some rest - I am :0) ... Been to the gym - coloring hair right now - did some cleaning and took a power nap (30 minutes) Time to go wash it off - cbl

Cheri - I should have had you write my bio - but again - it wouldn't be short - but you are very good at articulating your thoughts - I'm not - I assume pple can understand what I am trying to say.. Yep - I love color - I must be a winter too cuz primary colors are best on me - all the colors that are good on you are good on me - I have a little olive and some oranges though.. Melissa - Being able to zip line - being able to do exercise classes - being able to walk and do things all day without my feet hurting - being able to vacuum the house and not break out in a sweat - Those are the rewards - having my life back is a reward - just so sad that I didn't realize years ago how much my weight was affecting my life (limiting it) I have never in my life been as physical as I am today - and it amazes me even now.. But I'm loving it.. I don't feel bad about the puffs - it is what it is - it's done and over with - just wanted you all to know that there are things I can't stop sometimes still - mostly just pissed that I continued to eat them even when they weren't that tasty ;0) See - you do Janet's tricks- just buy a small bag so that when it's gone - it's gone ;0) WTG You are making changes. Well back from the gym - dusted - replaced 1 a/c filter and washed the grate - washed a couple dusty doors - need to go get the ironing board moved to the living room and put on a movie and get my clothes ironed.. CBL

So much for spell ck lol - I am terrible about proofing - you know those emails that go around with the words all scrambled - I can read them - cuz i do read every 3rd word ;0) -- I'm on my 2nd cup of coffee - have a mask on my face - bathroom rugs in the wash - I'm not getting on the scales - hell I don't get on the scales often anymore - maybe every 2 weeks.. I eat the same most days - so I really don't sweat it - plus I'm going to the gym 6 days a freaking week.. The shit's gone - I ate it all lol - there wasn't much left like I said 2-3 serving - most likely closer to 3... Crunchy cheetos no problem but the puffs - i grew up on them - we had a house in the mtns - my parents always stopped at the liquor store - got their booze and us a bag of cheetos (puffs) - I remember sitting on the floor w/my bros with the cheetos in a bowl - good memories.. Stupid QVC has more beauty products on this weekend - ugh... I'm a sucker for them - just like you and your crafting stuff - I am a beauty product girl - looking for that face lift in a bottle lol... If you saw my makeup drawer - you would say I'm a make up whore lol

Good Morning Peeps Damn Dogs - up at 4:30 have the alarm set for 5:30 since I have gym at 8 - so why go back to bed.. I think I will be napping this afternoon - but wait - I gotta be at the gym by 9 tomorrow... Well no rest for the wicked.. Melissa - I don't know if they are going to choose me Will see if I get chosen - wanted me to write and exciting short blurp about my life now - well - I'm not a writer and I don't do short ;0) - this is what I wrote 3 yrs ago I was 52 yr old and morbidly obese, I had no energy - I was sleeping my life away. I would always take the elevators, park as close to the store as possible, I would avoid anything that had to do with physical activity . I couldn't keep up with life - the weight was limiting my quality of life. Plus I have 3 grand children who I want to see grow up - I wanted to participate in their lives, not be sitting on the sidelines. Fast forward 3 yr - 114 lbs gone... I feel 10 yrs younger have 110% more energy - Now I have more energy than my grand kids - they can't keep up with me.. I took my Grandson on a cruise a year ago for his 18th birthday. He slept more than I did - I was able to go zip lining with my grandson - a 1st for me, something I couldn't do at 250 lbs, that was such a moment - to know that I could do something like that and not be held back because I was above the weight limitation plus I could have never hiked up the hills.. That was one of the best experiences . My band wasn't the easy way out.. I have learned that this is a lifetime lifestyle change - I am eating healthy (not dieting) - I am going to the gym (cardio & lifting weights) -Thanks to my bad with it's help in Portion Control and my good food choices and exercise - I now have my life back.. I am now living life and not sitting on the side lines watching it pass me by.. I am now a 55 yrs old woman - who hopefully has added some years to my life by losing the weight and hopefully will be around to maybe see some great grand kids ;0).. Oh ya I included my zip lining photo ;0).. Hugs on being sick - it's the pits - glad you went to the Doctors and you should be able to go rafting next weekend - Labor Day weekend ;0) Clothes - well some are for the 20 yr olds - But again I like color even at 250 I wore patterns and color as you can see by the 2 before pics - the one in the white skirt - I remember thinking I looked cute - well I sure don't look cute in that picture.. A lady I worked with who was a bbw too (big beautiful woman) and I always said we wanted to design clothes for BBW's that were flattering - Some of the stuff they make is for thinner pple.. They make alot of sleeveless clothes for bbw - hell even now (for smaller sizes) I would like to see more stuff with longer sleeves - especially formal clothing - Oh last night I had a relapse - I found these cheap version of cheeto puffs in the pantry (andrew bought them at the 99 cent store) - well I ate them not the whole bag but what was left which was about 2 maybe 3 servings - they were really greasy (you all know how much i Love grease ;0) - well I had one serving in a little bowl - that was ok - but then went back and ate the rest of them - they weren't that good - but I kept eating - then woke up w/reflux - not so much acid cuz I take an acid reducer - but woke up with a little choking had to run to the toliet but nothing really came up.. So see I'm not perfect - and that sorta ruin any other treats this weekend - plus I'm all swollen up from the salt.... I gotta work my butt of today at the gym... Plans this weekend none really - I need to Iron my clothes - last week trying to get dressed was a bitch - everything needs ironing and I don't always have time in the morning - so I think that's what I am doing this weekend.. Temps are suppose to cool majorly 98 on Sunday - it's nice out right now.. Should be good pool weather - may take the dogs swimming - wear their little butts out.. Well drying just stopped - so better get the stuff out - CBL

Good Morning Gang... Damn Dogs - up at 4:30 have the alarm set for 5:30 since I have gym at 8 - so why go back to bed..

Yep Karla - just you and me this weekend - Candice has Peter's party - Phyl has wedding - Linda may stop in - Step is out popping corn - So it's you and me ;0) Last night I came home from work and needed to take some pictures - I've been approached by a marketing group to be in an ad campaign for LAP-BAND®®®® - go look on my profile where pple leave messages .. Well they asked for good quality pictures - I have my little digital and sometimes it takes good pic and sometimes they come out grainy - i don't know why - so I came home and tried on some stuff - decided exercise clothes showed the figure the best - take picture (timer) change clothes - fix hair - omg - I got tired of messing w/it - here's the pic I sent Will see if I get chosen - wanted me to write and exciting short blurp about my life now - well - I'm not a writer and I don't do short ;0) - this is what I wrote 3 yrs ago I was 52 yr old and morbidly obese, I had no energy - I was sleeping my life away.

Karla - you should have good turnout this morning on your yard sale and what doesn't sell - give away or donate but let go.. Sorry about your teacher freind - yep life sucks at times.. But it does go on and I am very happy to hear that you plan on taking what you have and embracing it and letting the other crap go.. I'm there - I love Andrew w/all my heart - but I am sure enjoying him being gone - My house stays neater - don't know why - I guess I really haven't cooked - been eating left overs.. Oh last night I had a relapse - I found these cheap version of cheeto puffs in the pantry - well I ate them not the whole bag but what was left which was about 2 maybe 3 servings - they were really greasy (you all know how much i Love grease ;0) - well I had one serving in a little bowl - that was ok - but then went back and ate the rest of them - they weren't that good - but I kept eating - then woke up w/reflux - not so much acid cuz I take an acid reducer - but woke up with a little choking had to run to the toliet but nothing really came up..

Linda Glad Merry is doing so well - don't remember was it front or back leg.. Melissa - Hope you are feeling better - sounds like you are doing goo on your food Julie - Hugs - 9/9 or 9/6 - Sept will be here next week..

Well gang I'm pooped - I sorry this isn't more detail but I need to go eat - I have gym at 8 a.m. tomorrow...

Karla - It's just not school teachers who are treated like crap - every jobs has it's crap - I took classes and intials behind my name - but don't make as much as others do. We have FF - they don't contribute to my 401k - all they do is take and don't give - hell 2 owners just got new blackberries yesterday - but we are broke.. so I come in at 7:30 take lunch work to 4 and go home - that's it.. Bad attidute - but I don't care. OMG girl you collect stuff - hope the yard sales goes well - need to get butt in gear - cbl - Hugs

I've been here 2 yrs (maintenance) key imho - just keep eating healthy - be mindful of not letting your guard down and going back to your eating habits and keep up the exercise. This is a lifetime lifestyle change ;0)
