hiya blue, thanks ! you look like you are doing well to ! good luck & keep up the good work !

hey, you are looking great ! good job, keep up the hard work.. nice ink too...

lookin great papa !!

congrats, sounds like your on your way to a new you !, I take a G2 Gatorade with me everywhere I go now, you can have anything cabonated because your new stomach wont be able to handle the gas from it, same with white bread, rice etc, anything that expands... along with my fav DO-NUTS !! but the way I figure it is those are part of the things that made me so fat to begin with so I figure I will live the second half of my life eating things that are good for me and help me lose weight instead of gaining it !

glad you like it !

ugh, thats not good, thats a tough place to be in, I pray everything works out for you... my wife is my biggest support, my mom and brother live close by too but are no help to me either so I know that can be frustrating... well you should feel good that you are investing in yourself and not putting up with cheating, no one deserves to be cheated on.. imho anyway...

well it was painful but I put a couple of pics of me TRYING to smile on here...

ah yeah that is a tough one... sorry, I hope everything works out for you !!

I was a little nervous about the whole surgery thing and all but you deal with it for a couple of weeks and then its over but look at what you are gaining !! you will be so happy you did it !

best advice I can give you is get off caffiene and pop ( soda if your from the south ) now because they are not good for you and you cant have pop once you are banded... this is a hard one but so worth it, if my eyes were open I had a mt dew in my hand and when I slept I had a mt dew IV in so trust me when I say I know how hard this one is.. but now on this side of the band I dont miss it... another good habit to get into now is chewing your food... when you think yuo have chewed it up good chew it up again... this is a painful lesson to learn once you are banded so learn it now good luck !

well thank you very much, good luck on the PS, I hope all goes well... I was originally thinking my skin would snap back but I think I might have to get some PS done myself... thanks again!!

thanks ! you are making great progress yourself !! keep it up !

thanks ! how is your band journey coming along ?

I dont know if I have a picture of me smiling ? lol... my spidey sence goes off when ever someones pointing a camera at me and I usualy run the other direction... lol

hiya Tina, thanks for the compliment ! if I do as well at this as you have I will be happy, you look great !

hiya ! thanks for the compliment, you are doing awesome ! you look like a bandster pro !

SPEED...

hey chica, 35 or so pounds lost so far, down a pants size and in a XL shirt from a 3X ! I go a week from this thursday for my first fill, how did your first one go, I hope I get some good restriction right off the bat so I dont have to go right back... good luck to you !!
