Okay, thanks! I'm totally lost but I will try...

Ok, I just downloaded Yahoo Messenger. Now what? LOL, I don't have a clue how to work it. Can you shed some light on it for me?

Hey ladies! It's already been done. Here's the link Powder Room Gone Wild (New!) - Lap Band Surgery and Lap Band Discussion Forum Love the name!!

Whoooo Hooooo Renewed! That's something to celebrate!! I hope to be there soon!

Hello everyone! I thought I would update my progress pictures. Me at 330 lbs! [ATTACH]13874[/ATTACH] My most recent picture at 245 lbs! [ATTACH]13873[/ATTACH]

Great NSV's everyone! Keep em coming! It's so inspiring to hear such positive changes.

You may have the same problem I had. I tried to put my name, my stats, and a ticker and it was giving me the same message. You need to PM alex and explain that you can't change your signature. He said mine had some kind of code on it that shouldn't have been there and it sounds like your problem is the same as mine. Give alex a PM and he should be able to correct it.

I've been taking Actoplus Met since last November. It's Actos and Metformin in one pill. I have noticed some big changes. It keeps my weight loss steady and it does help with my facial hair. Sometimes I'll go for a while not taking it, and my weight loss stalls and my facial hair grows faster. Applesmith, have you seen an Endocrinologist? If not, I highly recommend seeing one. My Endo is the only one that has been able to help me. My Gyno is the one that diagnosed me but was no help to me at all.

Nite Renewed!

Hahaha! If my DH has "other plans" he sits up with me for a while making "not so subtle hints"...it's really cute. We have soooo hijacked this thread...oh well, it's fun!

I do too! I think some of the ladies came up with "Powder Room" and Alex added the "Gone Wild" part! Too funny! But it makes me think of "Girls Gone Wild"...

You've got lots of kids to chase so I can definitely see how that would make you tired. If I try to go to bed at a decent time, I just lay there...and lay there...and lay there. DH can fall asleep at the drop of a hat! It's funny how different we are, but it seems to work...

Hahaha! I love the heading Alex....too funny!

LOL, I'm the same way! Too bad my DH is the complete opposite...

....when your 2 year old child eats more than you!

Mamato3, sorry you had a bad day! It really is hard to stay on track when eating out. That's the problem I had over the weekend too. I hope you have a better day tomorrow! Are you "night person" too (meaning you stay up late like me)?

I like your new siggie! I love pink, purple and green together. Very cool! Mine is probably too bright for some people but I like it. After weeks of not being able to change it, I went crazy with it, lol. I had to PM Alex for help. It wouldn't let me do anything...he said I had some kind of code on it that should not have been there. Anyway, all is good now. I like to change mine up every now and then. Keeps things interesting.

LOL Renewed! Coffee does the same thing to me. I seem to go on coffee kicks. I won't drink it for a while then a few weeks later that's all I want. I even like the cold Starbucks fraps that they sell at convenient stores. I love Starbucks! I am such a night owl anyway, so I don't mind being hyper at night. It's 12:35 am here and I'm not even beginning to feel sleepy.

Yeah, that one was a doozy!

LOL, that's what I was afraid of! I would probably pass out!

Brandy If I'm not mistaken, Leslie already expressed to Lizzy that this was not directed at her. You and Lizzy were already on the defense before that post. I can't change your mind about how you take this post. All I can do is post my opinion on it and I agree that SOME people are too negative and do not make much of an effort. The majority of people truly try but not all.

Brandy Like Leslie said, there is a difference between trying strugglers and people who don't make an effort. No one is saying you are lazy and eat twinkies all the time. I could see your point if it wasn't pointed out clearly that this was for the people who don't try or give a flip, but it was. It's okay to complain sometimes, we all need to. But it does get annoying when it's the same people ALL THE TIME. To my knowledge, you don't fit into that category. I've seen enough posts to know that some people think the band is going to do all the work and are shocked when it doesn't.

Leslie, I agree! Lizzy and Brandy why would you think she was referring to you? She clearly stated that this was aimed for the people who give up without fighting or trying. Unless you didn't even try, you don't fit into that category. She never said anything about slow losers. We all lose at different rates. Again, it's the people who DO NOT make an effort that are annoying.

Yes, I have days like that sometimes. I think on OCASION, it's okay to indulge (in moderation of course). It does get better with time, at least it did for me. No one expects you to eat perfectly 24/7. As long as you don't make a habit of it, you should be okay. Don't beat yourself up about it. Just get back on track and move on. Good luck to you!

Renewed, how bad is Jillian's video? I know she kicks butt on the BL!
