Pnut...update me please. I am 299.2 total loss of 73 pounds so far. yipee!!!! Telly, I saw your pics in the other thread. So sexy momma!! I love that look for you. I am considering doing the same, my hair is falling out badly. But I am going to hold on as long as I can. My head looks so tiny with short hair... total pinhead LOL For now I am wearing a bandana everywhere. I have one in every color I could find, so that I am stylin. LOL Huggles everyone.

OMG people....Mrs Claus is back I have to apologize you y'all for checking out. I had a hard time with a family issue, and TONS of work (100+ hours a week) but all is fine, and all the kind emails and phone calls I got from people have dragged me back. So...um...lets see. oh yeah! 121 DAY TIL CHRISTMAS!!! Oh yeah, and lets get some updates here people. I'll update the page. *snicker* Ok...back to normal. Love you all! Merry Christmas!!

K. Selfless promotion of my offspring. Here is a pic of my kids. Post yours. I want to see how cute your little bugs are.

A huge muscular man walks into a bar and orders a beer. The bartender hands him the beer and says, "You know, I'm not gay but I want to compliment you on your physique, it really is phenomenal! I have a question though, why is your head so small?" The big guy nods slowly. He's obviously fielded this question many times. "One day," he begins, "I was hunting when I got lost in the woods. I heard someone crying for help and finally realized that it was coming from a frog sitting next to a stream." So I picked up the frog and it said, "Kiss me. Kiss me and I will turn into a genie and grant you 3 wishes." So I looked around to make sure I was alone and gave the frog a kiss. POOF! The frog turned into a beautiful, voluptuous, naked woman. She said, "You now have 3 wishes." I looked down at my scrawny 115 pound body and said, "I want a body like Arnold Schwarzenneger." She nodded, whispered a spell, and POOF! there I was, so huge that I ripped out of my clothes and was standing there naked! She then asked, "What will be your second wish?" I looked hungrily at her beautiful body and replied, "I want to make sensuous love with you here by this stream." She nodded, laid down, and beckoned to me. "We then made love for hours!" Later, as we lay there next to each other, sweating from our glorious lovemaking, she whispered into my ear, "You know, you do have one more wish. What will it be?" I looked at her and replied, "How about a little head?"

hey guys. computer at homeis down. I am not going to stick around here cause it is a public place, and i want to keep this site for at home use only. plus the kids are running around. DH spilled a glass of water all over my laptop. :confused: which sucks cause that means I am out of work till I get it fixed. I will be back soon!! Stay merry while i am gone!!!

hehehe talk about pain...a very good friend of mine is a piercer, and he will be doing my belly button, and possibly my nose. He is his own PA. I couldn't believe it! I don't think I could do that. The guy that works in his shop, Chris, is a tattoo artist and tatted his own feet. That had to hurt!

sex actually does not burn that many calories. At least that is what the workout sites say. Also, did you know that istups don't really burn many calories? Its true. they only burn a few more cals than just laying on your back. Now that being said, we have had our marathon weekends. Never getting dressd, eating nothing but strawberries and apple juice, and taking 4 or 5 showers a day. Those weekends result in a 8-10 pound loss each time. maybe it is time for another one of those...

AAAAAAAAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I think i can i think i can i think i can.... Nothin says lovin like determination! That is a cute story. I accidentally sai the same thing once, DH did a similar "Nope, I am ready now, lets go!" and the second time took 2.5 hours.

its a banana riding a llama. totally realistic don't you think? I have two pair of CFM boots. one pair is leather, one pair is shiny PVC, both have chunky heels and go to my knees. I have a few high heeled CFM sandals like you describe. One pair is lucite, and has lights that blink in the heel. Totally slutty. LOL

nah...just be sure to drink at least 4 oz of pure water for every drink you have. 8oz is better. that will ensure that you are not hungover the next day. but good luck rememebering to do that after 6 or 7 drinks. lol I can't wait to see the ruins. It is one of the things I am looking forward to the most!!

144 days till Christmas!!! :) :) :mad: :bananapartyhat: :bananapartyhat: :bananapartyhat: :bananapartyhat: :bananapartyhat: :bananapartyhat: Alright my little angels and elves, its that time again!! WEIGH IN DAY!! Lets see how close you are to that Christmas Goal!! Lets see if you have been good this week. Remember, Santa is watching! He knows when you've been binging, he know if you got all your water in for the day!

Thank you guys. I appreciate it. It is a lot to walk in Pnut's shoes. She did a lot to set this group up, and no onecompares to her! I am gonna have this thread locked now. Lets all make August a month to remember!!!

Hey y'all. Here is our home for this month. And since we will not be having the challenge this month (so that we can all take a breather) weigh ins are still on wednesdays, and we will have weight loss totals on the front page here, and of course the awesome support that we have all grown to love and enjoy. If you are new to us...here is a little bit of what the Gone For Good club means, in the words of our illustrious club manager, PhotoNut. I feel they sum everything up quite nicely. Also, the list below, and the Gone For Good Honors Post will be updated every thursday, the day after weigh in day. The list below will be updated with the totals from Jule as soon as they are all in. Congratz on joining. We do better with you here!! And remember that once it is gone, it is Gone for Good!! ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Gone for Good Club The members of this "club" are like-minded people who want to challenge each other to keep working toward our goal of weight loss and keeping it off! We have no illusions of the band being a miracle cure, nor do we believe that we will achieve our goals without working for them. We understand that if we continue the lifestyle and eating habits that got us fat in the first place, we will not achieve our goals. We come together in order to strengthen our determination by sharing our dreams, our struggles, and our victories with one another. Everyone is welcome to join the club - banded, pre-banded, no band - all are welcome to join at any time. To join, please post a brief introduction of yourself and list any information you want posted on the main page. See the list of members below to get an idea of what info you can post. The only requirement for joining the club is a commitment to your own success in your weight loss journey, and the ability to say NO to Girl Scout cookies! (club joke *winks*) Wednesdays are weigh-in days for those who wish to have us update your progress on this page. Please post a brief note on Wednesdays in the following format: C 265 (-42 lbs total, -3 this week) We encourage everyone to get to know one another while sharing tips, support, struggles, and encouragement... and a kick in the rear when needed! *grin* This is not a contest, there is no deadline, and everyone is a winner by being a "loser"! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (H-highest weight, S-weight at surgery, J-weight when joined this club, G-goal weight, C-current weight) A1ikou - H&S 375/ J 329 / C 306 (-69 lbs total, -8 this week) AliDiane - H&S 224/ J 210/ G 120 (-14 lbs total) AndyLiz - H 267/ J 267/ SG 250/ G 150/ C 264 (-3 lbs total) Anillacookie - H 270/ J 214/ C 210 (-60 lbs total) Banded Brenda - H 260/ S 239.5/ J 227 (-33 lbs total) Bell - S 300/ J 223/ G 160 (-77 lbs total) Betje - H 300/ S 286/ J 239 (-61 lbs total) CanadaSunshine - H 234/ S 222/ G 145 (-12 lbs total) Chameleon - H 275/ J 269 (-6 lbs unbanded to date) Cheri - H 276/ S 266/ J 234/ G 160/ C 214 (-62 lbs total, -3 this week) Chunk - H 320/ S 300/ J 220/ G 200 (-100 lbs total) CindyCam - H 290/ S 287/ G 140/ C 261 (-29 lbs total, -2 this week) Coyotegirl - H 305/ S 294/ J 220/ G 150ish/ C 208 (-97 lbs total) Criss Kellogg - H 245/ S 241/ J 211/ G 175/ C 205 (-36 lbs total) Daisybelle - H 400+/ S 403/ J 343/ C 340.5 (-63 lbs total) Dawg - H 307/ C 235 unbanded (-72 pounds total) DCPrincess - H 268/ G 135/ C 147 (-121 lbs total) Desi80 - H 238/ S 238/ J 173.5/ G 125/ minigoal 160/ C 171 (-67 lbs total, -.5 this week) DianeChef - H 260/ J 208/ G 150/ C 196 (-64 lbs total) Dongger - Vanished!

Morning all. FunnyDuddies - H 372/ J 340/ S313/ G 120/ C 311 (-61 lbs total, -3 this week) I am frustrated. I wante a pound lost a day. But instead I am losing a little under half that. With my calculations on my BMR and caloric intake I should be at a pound a day or more! grrrr

I'm getting my bellybutton pierced when I get to goal and have plastic surgery.

Desi, there will be a scorecard that CanadaSunshine is working on creating. This scorecard is something that you will put into a post, and go back to to edit every Wednesday for weigh in. There is a point system associated with your weight, amount of Water you drink, how much exercise you get in, etc. At the end of the month the person with the most points wins. I won the June challenge. And this month I have a present to give to whoever wins the August challenge. It is something I picked up in Mexico when I went down to get banded. I got a present from Kat for my winning. an awesome Avon makeup set and tote. PS Desi, make sure you uncheck the box on your posts so that your signature does not show up. It keeps the thread simple, and not so long to load for those on dial up.

Well I am 3 weeks out, and just entering my 4th week. I feel GREAT! I can eat anything and everything so i need a fill. I am also going to go on a pretty strict soup diet again. I miss my soup diet. LOL I get to start some light exercise tonight. I am going to do some shadow boxing and then do an hour long walk by my self. The dog is still at the vets and we pick him up on friday. I feel I should be well healed by then to handle a dog jumping up and around me. I can't wait for a fill. I have to wait this week and next week to get the fill, but i am excited about it and I hope that it makes a difference for me.

Are you going to post the scorecards? we need those to begin the challenge.

CS is building the thread now. Looks like we are in for a great challengethis month boys and girls!!! Thank you all for putting up with me and my updates during my banding month. It was sometimes tough, and i know I madea few mistakes, but I was happy to help out, and I was so happy to give Pnut the break that she so needed!! See you all in the next thread!

Oh we did a lot of christmas shopping this weekend. We got my daughter a few barbie things, and will be getting her a barbie dream home or soemthing like that. She gets her own room this year for christmas as well, so I got some girly decorative stuff for her. We haven't bought our son anything yet. we are still trying to figure out what to do with his room, and what to get him.

LOL This makes me laugh because my DH will ask for me to finish him off this way, and if I say "But then what will I get" he always promises that he can go again after a few. what a stud.

as for the question about my apron removal, i opted to wait till i get to goal to have the removal because of my history with blood clots. this was a decision that my doctor sort of made for me. LOL But i agree and trust his judgement. As for socialization, sherri and tracy and myself were all banded on the same day and we went out to dinner the night before, and sherri and i got to talk before the surgery in the prep room, and when we got back to the guest house we were totally comfortable and spent time in the back yard walking out the gas and relaxing.

145 days till Christmas!!! :D :D :bananapartyhat: :bananapartyhat: :bananapartyhat: :bananapartyhat: :bananapartyhat: :bananapartyhat:

bumpity bump bump. Ok, so we need a group consensus as to what is going on this month. Is a challenge in order? Or do we do another month of just weigh ins? I have a challenge surprise for whoever wins, and I vote for a challenge. Tell us what you think. What do you want to do for the month of August?

Well I will tell ya right now, I am a huge partier! LOL When I am not around my kids, I let loose, and Rob and I have a LOT of fun!! Something tells me Jenna is one step down from me, simply because she has that sense of duty to be liason. I have no duty. My kids will be with their grandparents about 1000 miles away. I will be crazy. LOL
