-100lbs WOW!!! Thats is awesome!!! :banana :banana :banana

Probably copying and pasting the HTML to the signature on the user profile, I was planing on doing the same once i get my band... After you make the measure thing lol there is a white box that pulls up with the HTML in it thats what you will want to copy. I havent tried it.. so im not 100% sure!

Oh those Zone bars are really good, I sometimes will buy them to eat as if I would be eatting a candy bar.

Up at the top you will see User CP. click on that and you can edit your signature, from there you can also add those cute little dancing bananas too. If you need any other help let me know

The only way I would eat rice cakes is with pb&j. just plain..yuck! lol Pat, I was the same way I hated the camara, but now that I know im getting the lapband I will take as many pictures as i can, just so i can see the diffrence and so that i can see and tell myself i will never be that again!

Thank You, and Yes we will... sometimes it seems like it will take so long but before we know it we will be able to flant our selfs in any picture Yummm I love PB&J opps im just honest... Keep me posted on how things go and I will do the same

Oh your not that far hun.. you will get there as soon as you think... and when you do we will all celebrate hehehe You are doing GREAT so far... what a great inspiration to me!!

I havent heard of it.. but intrested in finding out more..

Ahhhhhhh you are a sweetheart!!! and yes WE will make it through!!! And no we havent known eachother long, but I already think of you as a good friend... and belive me I need one (((((((((((((( BIG HUGS)))))))))))

Oh Marie I totally agree... the first picture 100lbs ago i look at that and cant belive i let myself go as if i didnt care... You might still see your self as fat, but you are doing something about it, you are living healthy now and thats something to be proud of! Paula, Im waiting to hear anything lol I just had my first appt last friday and he sent in all the paper work to my ins. Monday.. yeah 2 days ago.. so who knows what my wait will be. Hes really pushing hard for me to get this done fast... I feel if i have waited any longer i wouldnt be around in 5 years and if i was i would be in a wheelchair.. my small 5'1" isnt strong enough to hold 330lbs im breaking...

Yes I agree too more pictures Pre-banded, I always hated taking pictures.. you would see family holiday pictures and I was missing hehehe i would hide at the site of a camara, strange for me being photography is a hobby of mine. Now i try to take pictures of myself as offten as I can... Im even making a Scrapbook of this journey. Yes im still waiting on the Ins. but they basically told me they would pay for it and gave me the Dr.'s name so im about 99% sure I will get it. but like everyone else i have to go through all the steps.. including the waiting!!

Thanks for the incouragement!! I am going to fight hard!!!! Grrrrrrrrrrrrr lol

So again??? I might have missed it.... Doesnt Insurance pay for Fills.. or at least a % or is it considerd post-op where you dont pay... ugh im so lost now... i think im not reading right Im sorry

Thank You... as soon as I lose weight you better belive i will be trying, I dont think hubby will complain hahaha right now at 330lbs i cant put my life or a babies life at risk... The Lapband will allow me to make my dream happen in having a baby... enought dogs i want a baby!! LOL

Read Tread called TrishS.. I bumped it for you there might be somthing there that will help you I will look for more to bump

Hi Amber, I havent been Banded yet, but other then losing weight Im getting banded to have children, I have none now and I made sure i would be able to with the Lab Band and thats what I like about it is that you can. Once you have the Lapband for a while and you are "filled" you can be unfilled (lapband still in place) and have that chance to have kids. This was truly one of my conserns in my decsion. I want kids so bad.. and with the LapBand I can have that dream! There is another post on here talking more about it.. I will find it and bump it up for you.. Good luck with everything

Ahhhhh how cute are they!!! wow I love looking at pictures... I dont have any children to send pictures of... and I wont send mine Im to scared.... So thanks for sharing all of yours

I bet your hubby is walking around with a smile lol

Oh wow theres bras out there.. I have been wearing tank tops under everything hehehe nawwww I buy mine at WalMart little JMS cheapy things for 10.00 nothing fits me... its hard to find a 44 A come on... when i do find them.. they are so uncomfy I hate bras i wish we didnt have to wear them lol before i gained so much weight i was wearing a 36 AA yeah thats almost a training bra LOL told ya i have nothing there just everything everywhere else

My hubby would say..... You dont need a treadmill, you dont need a bike, you dont need weights, you have me..... LOL if he could last as long a a treadmill it might be worth it huh LMAO just kidding... Im the one not wanting sex... being so big i cant move, my back hurts i want to cry, and its hard to breathe... my poor baby he cant wait until i lose weight
