Thanks all.... I'm going out to pick up a scale today. Nope didn't have one of those either. Complete and utter denial! With mirrors and scales challenging me daily. I'll have no choice but to face the "The Fat Monster"!! And I shall give him the fight of his life!!!

Whata sweetie!!

Totally agree on the shake thing. nygrl and dallasdoll you could try a protein shake. My favorite is Disigner Whey, just like Kathy I throw in a half a banana. It's sooo good! It always kept me full before band for at least 3-4 hours.

YOU GO GIRL! and don't stop,and don't look back!!

Thats so awesome!! Keep up the good work!

I went to a shrink yesterday, my other therapist recommened it. He prescribed Wellbritrim(sp?) and Topamax. Wellbritrin in the morning and Topamax before I go to bed. One is anti-depressant and other I forget whats it's for. But i think it's also a kinda of a mood stabilizer. ????? Paper it came with said it's for seizures?? I'm going to call and find out. I don't really like taking meds. Has any one taken either of these? They both say "do not crush". Shrink said I should even lose a few of lbs and my sex drive will start rockin 'n rollin. Any info much appreciated...

30lbs gone......awesome!!!!!!!!! You must be walking so much lighter.

I'm sooo excited for you!! I wish you so much luck !!!!! When you come I want to hear how you had a great experience and your healing well, ok. And I'll tell you how my trip was, since I'll have been their on the 27th getting banded myself. Yaaah for us!!

Welcome to the board, Margo. I'm not as experienced as others here, but how about asking the WLS's how many bands they placed? You don't want to be the first.

Is there differrent kinds of steva 'cause the one I have leaves a taste of after. Terrible in coffee! I'm with you Vines, I can drink coffee w/ slenda but coffee w/ REAL sugar is a beautiful thing.

I get my best fashion advice from my kids. My 11yr old dosen't want me to lose weight either, she likes the fluffy me. I guess I'm like that well worn sofa, you still love it spots and all.

GREAT NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a great way to start the weekend.

Thanks everyone! It doesn't seem real yet. I'm strangly calm. I think I'll start freaking the day before I leave!

I'm outta here April 27th. I'm on my way to have a clandestine meeting with silicone Bandito. And with any luck we will have a very long and fulfilling affair.

Will be paying...$8,200 w/ Dr.Del La Garza www.litenfree.com

Do you or don't you need a pass port for flying into Mexico?

How about having a creamy high Protein vanilla shake instead. Some nice fruit in it. I LOVE Disigner whey protein powders. Even buy some low carb ice cream and throw a scoop in the skake. Eat it w/ a spoon. Man,Now I want a shake.

Thanks Chris... i start taking them tomorrrow, and if I do well with them, I'll see if I can get the name brand.

Good for you Megan. it's great how life unfolds, when we're doing good things for our selfs.

Just made it a "done deal" today! I didn't want to speak to soon, didn't want to jinx it!
