I haven't considered lift surgery....wellllll.....maybe joking but I've been looking into options to firm the skin on my face and under my chin.

I had one of those no change weeks again 239 guess I'll be down next Friday since I have to do the clear diet and drink that clean out stuff Thursday evening........:sad: BG Thanks!!! They identified mine pre-band I'm not having issues but I guess it's got stones. I decided since I've paid my max out of pocket that I'd go in and deal with it. Don't really like the idea of surgery jsut because but don't want to need emergency surgery because of it and our insurancce is getting worse next year.

Didn't get a fill last week since I'm having surgery on 11/6, I'm OK with that just glad they didn't unfill before the surgery.

I'm scheduled to get my gall bladder removed next friday (11/6). Hope you get back to Boot Camp soon.

That's great that you got to onederland! You'll be a goal before you know it.

I was banded 4/09 and it's the best thing I could have done. You will go through the back and fourth thing but I'm really glad I did it. I lost 40 lbs presurgery and 49 since surgery 19 more pounds and I'll be at my first goal.

Oh My!!!!!!! Hope you pull(ed) through well.

I went to my gmail page and then clicked on documents and found it there. J.T.

239 for me today I've got a lot of work to do if I'm going to make my Turkey Day Challange.

the center I went through has 2 a month one downtown and one further out, I go to the one further out there are usually 2 or 3 men and the room is usually full. Our support group let's each person intro themselves and tell a little about their journey and then they usually have a speaker.

Are you using the compression shirts? They are holding the bulges in well?

I'm still trying to figure it out.........finally had to have it explained to me..... Mike As you know getting fills is critical, until you get enough fill you are on your own to restrict what you eat. I think most of us who had surgery in April have had 3 or 4 fills by now, my Dr. is conservative how often he will do them and I go for my 4th fill tomorrow. Get caught up on your fills and make sure you are getting the protien. Are you going to your support meetings?

I saw on the news that Mammoth was having an early year. I do miss the California sunshine I lived in Redondo and Long Beach areas for 10 years.

Not real warm rained most of the time. We went to Williamsburg and Norfolk Va. stopping in Lexington at VMI to look at some cannons and the Marshall Museum. Attached are a couple photo's of Kirk and me.

I constantly have tell myself not to put a bite in my mouth, set it back down and cut it smaller.

Don't know where I'm at after vacation I'm afraide to get on the scale. I'll post a weight on Friday.

WOW!!! you are doing so good!!!!!

That's so great!!!! I used to buy their pants for work they were inexpensive and nice but they didn't carry fat sizes.

No copay, no need to weigh-in, no need for confession (unless you want to) just let us know you are still here.

I'm at 240 today yeah........ We go on vacation Monday and then I see the doctor the day after we come back I hope I can hold firm or even lose some more.

OK I checked out the link and have to ask what's going on with the family jewels in this garment, something about this looks so wrong.

How's the compression shirt working for you? What brand are you using?

WOW 6 months hard to believe it's been that long for us...Remember when...... Day by day we wished each Bunny good luck, prayers and advice. We were getting and giving advice on what to take to the hospital and what to have ready when we got home. Now were old pros... For many of us it's been a year since we started our journey. We have a healthy life ahead of us.

This sounds really good I'm doing about 2 shakes a day breakfast, I can't seem to eat actual food before going to work just doesn't go down well, and evening. What I've had a taste for lately is a banana, reduced fat peanut butter, 8 oz of skim milk, scoop of vanilla protein powder. Not sure of the calorie count but it's really good some times I do strawberries (frozen) instead of banana. I've been finding myself drinking a lot of milk lately going through about a gallon every 2 days.
