Mytime - I suggest checking out Tellymelly's posts and journal - she has been an amazing example of what a 'healthy' human being can do with the lap band. I am not banded yet - and I have major disabilities that restrict my exercising - but Telly girl - well she's got it working for her - and she is a great motivator!

water and ice cream usually are MESSY! waaaaaaaahaaaaaaahaaaaaaaa here it comes - watch out Telly - hey stop twisting that hose all up!

Bah! anyone who is a God or Goddess can eat ice cream and it won't show! lol but if we humans eat it - watch out! I'm buying a new hose as we speak lol

I'm sorry Funny -- not meant to scare YOU - it's to scare the ice cream demon away!!! Where's that hose anyhow..........huntin for it.......hmmm who stole it?

Isn't that the truth! My fiancee once had steroid medicine for 2 1/2 weeks and gained 100 lbs! He lost it fast once the doctor SAW what it did to him -- oh lordy..........stay away from the ice cream...........where is that devil hiding?

Telly we can tell where YOUR mind is lol Thanks for the laughs ladies - long in the making for sure woo hoo! and PLEASE spray the ice cream demon for me - thanks!

one more day Mary --- don't forget Wednesday (got til midnite) :confused:

I think EXPLODE! lol

now THAT should be interesting Telly -- lol -- can you see it now - diabetic/disabled non-banded me waiting in Illinois

If anyone can be a personal trainer it is you Telly! You kick our butts via online already!!!! lol Seriously - you will be so awesome - you are personally motivated and that is what it takes! You've got it girl!!!

Not being banded - I have appreciated how accepted I have been here -- that, I'm sure, is due in part to the great moderators!!! Keep up the good job and thanks for making an insane 'family' of friends bearable on the most difficult days!

ROFL!! TELLY -- ok sure -- in two years our challenge will be KEEP the weight off woo hoo! I can't always exercise -- disabilities won't let me - but I'll tell ya what -- my blood sugars are so darn LOW that I have to choose -- exercise or food! I am not happy choosing food - so I can't exercise or will lower my sugar even more since I don't want to eat more food -- I have bloodwork again end of June - until then I will continue minimal medication - but I have to take 'some' until that bloodwork comes back -- what a dilemma! so yea for NO sugar and NO flour -- it DOES work!!!

I have to say I'm up for a summer challenge! But as Funny said - could it be for ONE month at a time?? Maybe 'adding' something to the initial challenge for July and August could work....

So I no longer have to take medication for type 2 diabetes!!!

Amy - HUGS! I, too, get infections like you have - will be praying for a quick recovery for you! Skye - congrats! It's so awesome when we want the same thing God sends us! Best wishes on the new job! Glad to hear hubby is better too!

I have the reverse in our house - I only speak "English" like a Northerner - then I have my SO who is from Texas (almost the border) who claims he speaks English lol -- when we first met we had to ask one another to repeat things constantly -- between his twang and my accent it was always interesting! My favorite word he uses is "heighth" I said there is no such word - yes there is he said - how tall ya are - I was like huh? lol -- he also talks like a geezer and HIS own younger boys would say what? when he would say crazy old-fashioned things like pocketbook, bill fold, picture show..... My most AND least favorite is his favorite phrase "Do What?" for what do you need/want me to do/what are you talking about/excuse me can you repeat what you said I didn't hear you -- all rolled into those two little words And then there is always sireeen, and ceement

oh Funny....out of the mouths of babes! She sounds like a real sweetie! Congrats on buying new clothes - AND earrings! We ALL need to do that sometimes - and yep we all forget who we once were....good for you taking care of yourself and being happy! Have a great party weekend!

I'll take it - everything except the teenagers -- between my sweetie and I we have SEVEN dwarfs (pun intended) - will give you most of them in exchange for the house tee hee!

I say a loud AMEN! to this....thank you for this thread..

Kim - I clicked on your house link - nice house! you are moving why? lol -- if it was in Illinois it would sell for TWICE that price - amazing - my sweetie wants to move back to TX - if I show him this he might! lol with or without me

LOL Telly....yep Illinois alright.......you mean if I stay the same next week you'll ride your bike all the way here? lol (I am hoping to actually get near the 20 pounds lost mark for our challenge) uh oh did I just say that outloud? oops..........

C-269.5 (-9 total, -1 lb) phew - I finally broke that 270.5 wall after two weeks!

do we get ONE week between challenges please? lol

um...I hate to say it but it is not Susan who is scaring people away -- just stop already please......did threads such as this one help you when you first came to this website?

Sad sad sad -- and no it won't be locked when moderators are joining in - this bad mouthing in the threads is almost enough to make me say forget the band!
