Yeah, didn't really mean to quote the same thing twice?!?

Be glad you don't live in Michigan!!!! The grass is harder than concrete!!!!

B~~You are one of the most awesome story tellers I have seen on here...... Don't mean to laught, but I can see myself doing that, sans testicles of course!!!!

I am having images of my stomach exploding! I guess that would stop me from eating frosty's at work huh?????? We did the mentos and pop thing at my friends house once....it was really cool!!!

I'm the only one here...that's a first.....must be the whole Christmas thing.....

Finaly freakin caught up! Gosh, I'm away from computer for a few days and BAM! 10 pages go by and it takes me 30 minutes to catch up! MB~~thank you for explaining the pedals! BG~My oldest text's everybody....good thing we have PCS huh? I miss you! I had something to say to J, but I forgot...... Oh, and I've eaten enough crap these past couple days that it scares me! Well, I ate small amounts of crap, but crap none the less! Can anyone say time for a fill for Jenn? BG~ Am I on the books for Jan. 7th? or am I still on the 21st? If it's the 21st, can I get bumped to the 7th? If I leave a message for Terry, will she get it? I need saline! I love ya! Oh and: MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD BIKE...... Yeah, I'm a dork.........

J~ My 13 year old son would start biking JUST to have that Ohio State Jersey! Of course, we live in Michigan and are Michigan fans, but just goes to show you, we allow our kids to have their own opinions....no matter how WRONG they may be!

I have sooooo much to learn about biking....here i thought pedals were pedals???!!! :faint::help::faint::help:

It's official, I weigh less than my husband..... BG.....YOU GET THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS when you're with your TRUE FRIEND, I mean seriously THIS IS THE LIFE; IF WE WERE A MOVIE, we'd be Thelma and Louise! I say we need a GIRLS NIGHT OUT because I MISS YOU! You really are ONE IN A MILLION! Couldn't resist! Hanah Montana HERE WE COME!!!! M~ I really can't wait until the day comes when your previous post makes sense to me! Don't worry, I get the gist of it and as soon as I actualy have a clue about biking, I'm sure I'll get it!

I got 1.25 cc's on Monday and still have no restriction.....*frustrated*

J~ I think that is your nickname, not sure though...Just didn't want to put OJ because then I think about orange juice....and that other guy...ya know the one who "didn't" kill the other people???? My 2 letter nickname is JJ..(thanks BG!)..and I've been doing real good. Glad to be banded, just wish I had some restriction...I have none and I got 1.25cc's on Monday. I keep thinking that maybe today it'll kick in...not sure if I should just wait or what. Hope everyone else is doing good...I can't wait to go to LBS and start shopping for my very first "real" bike!

Fellow Michigander here! I was banded 11/7/07 by Doc Bacal in Dearborn. I live in Belleville, between Ann Arbor and Detroit. I am very pleased with my progress thus far! I got my first fill yesterday; 1.25 cc. Hopefuly I'll feel it!

Why is it that when I have to work early the next day I can't sleep, yet when I have the next day off, I'm in bed by like 10? I think I'm just rambling because I don't wanna go to bed....

Never mind....I figured my ticker thingey out

Okay, I'm inspired to get back to the gym...thanks MB and BG! BG how much is your membership where you are.....think I might need a partner...is it month to month or contract.....?? And I can't figure out how to change my tracker....

I actualy plan on purchasing plain old gold bands from Wal Mart or wherever as I go smaller.....

I didn't eat so well today....My "visitor" should be here any day now....I have managed to completely avoid sweets though, so that is a positive. I've just come to realize that just about anything turns to "mushy" when you chew it enough...I don't think I like that realization. I actualy long for the opti-fast days again....okay, maybe not really, but I do long for the incredible amount of weight I lost when on Opti-fast pre surgery diet. I need a new job.

Jenn here! I live in Michigan with my husband of 11.5 years and our 3 children. I am a general manager for Wendy's. Yeah, I know, I need a new job, being addicted to food and working around food is not good. As Dr. Phil would say, "how's that workin' for ya?" I enjoy reading and scrapbooking as well as reading about scrapbooking....and of course the message boards! One of my closest friends got "banded" in February and she has been an inspiration to me and has held my hand every step of the way. My kids stop me from putting "inappropriate" food in my mouth, or so says my 8 year old daughter! I couldn't ask for a more supportive family. Oh yeah, I'm 33, my children are 13, 11 and almost 9. 2 boys and my princess respectively. My kids read nutrition labels now, I think that is remarkable! My motivation for having this surgery was to prevent the comorbidities that were heading my way. I see my gramma struggle with her diabetes and know that I don't want to go that route. Thank you all for taking the time to post and read these bio's.

December 10th for me! And that just isn't soon enough!!!

I work with food, so the smell makes me hungry. I'm finding it harder and harder to resist temptation, but I know I have to or all my HARD work will go to pot! I wasn't hungry for a few days post surgery, then at about 10 days bam! It hit! Now I'm counting down to my fill Dec 10th!

I am a General Manager at Wendy's, so temptation should be my middle name. Thank God for baked potato's and Chili! Mush it all together and you get tasty protien! It's very hard to work there after being banded. I just went back to work Monday, had 2.5 weeks off, I work REALLY hard on my feet all day, it was much easier to eat right at home. Not to mention the exercising I'm NOT doing at home. It's so hard to be on my feet all day, 9-10 hours, and then come home and work out. I really need to change this, but how? I suppose only I know the answer to this question....

Way to go BG!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so very proud of you!

Oh, and I love your hair!!!

I just wanna use your love tonight........I don't wanna loose your love tonight........

That's what I figured.....I am not going to gain weight...no way working too hard! I'm burning so many calories right now....typing!! Ha ha! I love fudgsicles.....and popsicles...they are keeping me from needless mindless snacking!
