Hi Hot 42... Well you probably wont get the referal. It is 35bmi with co morbidities, or 40 without. I wouldnt recommend gaining the weight to get here either... the surgeons will say something:D BUT, dont freak me out about the iud lol, i got one of thsoe. Keep meaning to get hte sucker out but im afraid of drs lol.. Let us know how your appt goes:D

OH candra i so didnt get your post about dinner, i woulda loved that youshoulda seen us driving around searching for dinner.. not a fun picture.. BUT we are staying in town for a lot of tomorrow.. id love to see ya, and we could meet up tomorrow night? Riley what did baggs say about a sooner fill? Glad you had fun camping, not sure if you read my story lol so glad u covered the fun for both of us:D Sorry about ur food issues... only time i have a tough time with bread is when i try to eat a bread roll, like subway kind.. but it just gives me a pain for about 1 min then goes down. Im sure after i hit my sweet spot it prob wont.. I am gonna start posting my food again here after the fill.. i have been under a lot of depression lately so staying at my weight has been NO FUN.,.. OHHH we got the email..... Elie emailed mike and told him temporarily they are closing the position, because of financial hardships and will be contacting him as soon as it opens back up, and that he feels bad and yadda freakin yadda. IM DONE< im soooo done! I can't handle this anymore! 3 more weeks till hes open to go back to intel and as long as daves not a dick thats where hes going i just hate that we have to do this. Why why why.,.. apparantly god doesnt want us in san jose..... :thumbup: Between my family drama and the work drama i cant stop crying these last two days.. i hope we get a break. ok love ya girls see some of ya tomorrow!!!:eek: hugs

Oh Christine! You are gonna be proud of me:D Atleast if i remember right you will... We used Hotwire for our hotel room this time:) Priceline got on my nerves lol....

Mike and I are heading out to Six Flags, we are staying in American canyon so i dont have to drive 2.5 hrs to get to the fill in the morning.. Less tempted to get a coffee again that way. AND i am wearing the exact same outfit, because according to my scale i am still at 185 meaning im only down 4 lbs! AND i need every one of those lbs to show tomorrow:( I put a pony tail in my darling lol too funny.. OH we are also going to 6flags tomorrow if anyone wants to go. My drs have told me i have always had a dead metabolism, because yeah never being able to loose even on dr authorized diets, and unlike you tina i could do a water diet or all vegie or atkins, and guess what, i never lost a damn pound.. but that is all in the past i am ready for my future! AND the excersize and weight loss sooo makes since! I also find though if you under workout you also dont loose, somehow we are supposed to find the happy medium lol. GO US! Ok im ready to go... Have fun girls see ya in the morning 9:30 right?? DONNA, your comin right??

Candra Jess, i am so proud of both of you! You guys are gonna be banded SOOOOO SOON! I can taste it;)

Ok so im gonna probably get yelled at lol, but i dont think age has as much to do with it as we think.. here is why... Riley... Me and Riley were at the EXACT same Orientation, meaning we started the same day. Yes her surgery was a couple weeks ahead of me, but she is still loosing steadily faster then me, and here is the thing.. she is not 24... So ladies.. it can be done! ALSO, Christine is a star weight loss we know this.. she also is not 24.... I think it has more to do with, what we are all eating, how much we are all working out, and how much we are doing what each individual body needs. Hence why im playing with the same darn 2 lbs for the same 2 weeks.. just like the rest of everyone. Heather is doing Awesome, but i would not credit it to her age at all.. that is just not fair to do. Because i hate to say something I HAVE NEVER been able to loose weight, that is why i was 12 years old and considered obese already... For 12 years i dieted.. NEVER could loose more then 15 lbs.. which wasnt even 10%.. It just all stuck, only time i lost 30 is after i had my baby from the time i got prego till the time i had her i lost a 34 extra lbs.. but then gained it back in the first year:) Sorry i havent been on ive been very stressed out lately. Lots of family stuff going on. Keep your prayers up Elie said we will here by friday. I am just hoping he gets anything at this point..:thumbup::sad::sad::sad::sad::sad::thumbup::crying::ohmy::crying::crying::crying::crying:

Jess you are so close! How exciting! I remember those days:D But also the nerves, fears etc. Also i kept thinking i could do it on my own since i lost so easy on the preop lol. So you probably have a ton going thru your head:) But you are gonna do great! Let us know how your CM appt goes:D Tina how are u feelin today?

Tina, i dont think he will do 1cc.. i believe max is .5.... :smile: sorry. But your loss is AWESOME!

So does anyone wanna escape the heat this weekend, we wanna go camping at the beach. Chris made me realize where its cool at... and that sure as heck is not the mountains lol. Unless we go to Lake tahoe.. Even there is warm..

I am so excited about our group fill. Parts of me only want .25 instead of .5.. i dont know.. I like being able to eat and not PB and not get sick. I guess this week i should pay attn to how long the fill lasts... I do know how a lil bit can feel like a ton when ur close to the sweet spot. Anyone else going thru these feelings??

Jess...Im pretty sure you will have to do them again.. If i remember they said it had to be less then 4 weeks old. Tina, if you remember my husband being a jerk before surgery with all the say goodbye to your baby and all that tear jerkin crap, is cause of what happened a year prior... I am so glad i did it also though:) Girls i feel like crap so im going to bed, i have the worst migraine, oh and i felt my band for the first time since my fill guess when.. Well i asked mike to break my tylenol in half.... I FELT THOSE! And then i heard these lil squeaky sounds, like my band was burping or something.. i dont know how to explain it closest would be like when ur stomach growls.. it was nuts. I just thought it was crazy that my 1/2 tylenols are the first thing i felt. But i am feelin kinda shitty so maybe its swellin in there? I hopeits not a bug that i got from auds. But she stoped vomitting and NO diarrhea today since we got home. She has had a ton of water too:) BUT she was on me ALLLLL day, she gave me probably 1 hr of break. Very mommy bound:( So yeah im going to bed, ill chat with you all tomorrow.

Tina i feel so bad for you but it is so inspiring that with everything uve gone thru you still love your band. OH and candra i did have a complication... i had bleeding from my port. Big time bleeding... like i took pics of it. They say if it doesnt stop in like 30 min thats when they worry lol.. Tina i wish i was always young and strong.. for some reason my body could handle this but child birth is a diff ball game, epidurals dont work for me, so i could feel them cutting into my stomach and i was crawling up the surgery table. So i have had my share of complications, needless to say i woke up 4 hrs after my baby was born... they had to general anesthesia me down. Then i had a bad infection and was stuck in the hospital for a week.... My baby came out at a score of 3 she was not awake, and had to be brought back... good thing i missed that part though.. i woulda lost it....... So yeah hit and miss... everyone is diff and we all can handle different stuff. Ladies audrey is driving me nuts today i think shes givin me a total of 1 hr where she was NOT ontop of me. what is it with mommys and their babis, i want a break:( I just told my mom im shipping her back to god.....:wink2:

No biopsy here... I have a problem, its called ability to eat whatever i want... i believe Christine also doesnt have any of the side effects. I hope she feels better real soon!

The breathing issues are a side effect with all surgeries unfortunately. Any time you go under. I didnt have any of those issues though..

OMG this is horrible! Is she a Kaiser Patient??? If not this surgeon needs a lawsuit sounds like they just wanted to get her done to get the pay check. Tell her to get on here when she feels up to it and we can help her out. Or call me im always available..:wink2: poor thing

Oh my gosh did u get a name??? So you can do something about it???

We will go anyone else?

ohand your Wildtree order is cleared that cleared like last tuesday so dont worry, atleast if it didnt we would know:D But i know mine has cleared both my accts:)

Hi everyone, so auds had 7 teething tabs and finally calmed down to nap and now she seems to be doing better...rehydrating:) and eating junk with her mom. One thing i hate about campin all the junk left over. Family dynamics are so not what i thought they were supposed to be. I agree bran has always had everything handed to her also. FOR instance.. ok shes 22 this year has not once ever paid rent. Live in my parents other house for free her bf now doesnt pay rent either. Neither work. My parents pay for them and the baby. Then my mom GAVE hera car for shawn and my dad gave her another car for her. So she has 4 cars now that all run and are good, we have 2 one that has 280k miles and no ac and the windows are stuck up, and the oil has to be refilled each use. Not a reliable piece of crap. Then mom told bran she can have the Fridge and Washer and Dryer! I put my foot down though and told her im taking the washer and dryer when we move if we need it. Its bull that bran gets all the stuff she wants, and the lawn mower etc. I do love my sister but she like urs tina is the Skinny one.. (the first skinniest in the group at camping) and people honestly do use that as a favoring situation.. even if u loose all your weight it doesnt matter your still "heavy" whatever.:wink2: My sister is called the Camillion cause she makes EVERYONE happy lol, she will say whatever it is she has to to be on your good side.... Pam im so glad you had a better time then me, and yes i agree the heat was MISERABLE. Did you know it actually hit 107 yesterday? atleast where we were:) Candra, i have a feeling ur card and wildtree are not connected, because 1. i trust the consultant and also people can get ur card from many places. I worked in banking for a long time, and found peoples numbers were mostly stolen from either emailing the number, or statements. Did they get you the info on who was using it? If so id press charges. I used 2 cc for my wildtree order and not one have weired charges. I hate that happened though good thing you caught it thank god! I hope everyone is doing well today!

Whats sad is my mom left Sat my dad wasnt there, so who she is the golden child with is all 20 of my cousins. I think they like her cause she is a camillion she can blend in with everyone and will say anything to make everyone like her. Needless to say im not going again

I love you girls.. yeah Riley you saw me online and here is why:( Thursday: We get to camping its all good VERY hot.... 103 hot.. well my baby is hot red in the face.. etc etc.. Diarrhea diapers up my kazoo.. Friday: we decide to come home for a couple hours because she got NO sleep.. and is still having diarrhea diapers.. So we were home from 9:30- 2.. go back with some ice. Audrey is a ok warm but fine for the rest of the nite, goes down to bed EASY as pie. Saturday... things are progressing, more diarrhea less water... We decide to wait till noon (heat) to go back home (35 min drive) She hangs out and plays with cuz and the older kids.. We go home she naps for a long time, cools off seems fine.. maybe 2 pee pee diapers all day Saturday.. We go back at 5, on the way i picked up pedialyte for her and my sisters baby.. she plays in the lake and goes down just fine. We stay up till about 12 when im bored and decide to just go to bed since my cousins are boring me... I am pretty much the outcast and it is worst now that i am the second skinniest person in the group.. and i thought it was bad when i was heavy! They prefer my sister and that sucks.. kinda hurts but what can i do:) Well at 3 am my life ends on this campin trip... i wake up to my daughter vomiting and choking on her vomit! IT is everywhere, and she cant catch her breath.. of course we can not find the flashlight just can smell it and hear her. So being the carring mom i am i grab mysoaked child (stinky) and we sit there debating what to do... we take a potty break walk and then as im going down the hill i trip and fall on my leg scratching it all up. I do know my predom side, my hand and leg on the right is done for a lil while.. both swollen from injuries and miserable.. are we allowed to take ibprofen?? I didnt think so so i didnt... Well we get back from the porta pottys (btw girls we can all squat in a porta potty so easily now its no prrrroblem at all. Well my sister got woke by audrey, and is asking if we are ok by this moment im in tears and audreys in tears and vomiting again:( my sister then wakes up to help us pack up cause we need auds to drink pedialyte and everytime she does back up it comes.. So she sits with auds then we pack up, oh my packin in the dark lol is a workout and the car gets one too cause its a DISASTER:) Well we made it home by 6.. auds let me sleep till 8... now im up and dead... and she still smells funky.. ate about 1/4 a yogurt and is rejecting her juice still:( I am so mad at my "family" some of them woke and got out and stared but never even tried to offer to help:( So yep you did see me online ive been to depressed/stressed out to post:( And my hand is swollen so its not fun to type. I told mike that tomorrom the swelling in my leg needs to be gone so i can do my run lol. How funny the priorities i have now... Riley your going camping today right? The best thing i brought was Shish kabobs.. oh wait ur vegitarian.... well on with my story, cause its vegies and meat healthy and as big of a portion as i want:D BTW out of the 6 bears, i had.. drum roll please.. 1. :wink2: Last night also.. oh man:( So much water but i am dehydrated considering im diein of thirst. Trhe only bad thing i had with food the whole trip is well i had a smore but i dont think of that as bad lololol:) but we brought a bag of laysfor mike and i had some i said what the heck. I did not gain on the trip though just maintained, that works for me:) So yes ill go camping not in this heat though my daughter cant do it. I would be more enthusiastic but read above and you will see why there are no caps or smilies.. just let me know when and where. OH elie from asap emailed and said we shoudl know by fri that he is out of town till enxt week.. Goodness whatever i give up lol im just going to live life till he calls.

Do not have time to read and catch up.. We had to come home for some hours, auds slept like CRAP. AND i fell hurt the crud outa my hand and have a bad sprain. Mike caught a fish this am.... What else, um foods been easy we need WAY MORE water. 1 flat is NOT enough its already gone and thats just us 3. OH ITS HOT... Have a good weekend girls.. OH Glad we came home our car got broken into and this ebay jerk paid 6 days after his auction i shipped within 2 business days and now hes claming I NEVER SHIPPED... talk about irrational jerk. So im glad i got to that. Elie for asap said he will be in contact with mike on Friday.. so finally we hear from him... Im gonna go nap with my kid (she had 3 hrs of slee) nite:D

LOL Candra you are a riot! No i didnt notice the earing issue:D I would have told you!!! Totally. And about the clothes i say take them cause she obviously wants you to think she is smaller??? But i am a 10/12 and I will still wear 14s cause they are super comfy.. but they look kinda funny.. so not sure why shes handing them down.. unless she just has a TON of clothes?? and can spare these?? IDK.. Me im very limited lol. Ok girls we are leaving now:( Im gonna miss everyone, isnt that pathetic im going on a trip and gonna miss ALL OF YOU!!! Im lame.. ok talk to you on sunday:D Hugs

Its nice:D We look like size 3 in our shadows:D We lookin good oh yeah!

You go riley! Im glad you uped your cals and lowered the exercise i bet that was the answer:D No more body exhaustion:) I am so tired. we got 4 hrs of sleep last night, and have to now get ready to leave in a couple hours for camping:( I wish husbands came with a light switch where you could just shut them down when they wont shut up:) So i did day 1 of week 3. Which i am giving me 4 days of cause im about to take a four day break from running... What i like about progressing in the weeks is i make it around my 1.5 mile faster and faster:D Im at 23 min right now. when we walk it it takes us like 35 min... Candra have you started week 3 yet? Ill tell ya what i was yellin at myself at the 3 min jog. On a treadmil i can run for 7 min straight at a 4.0... on cement omg different ball game all together! Kinda depressing... but so i get out there and start it im 1.5 min into the 3 min.. and i bet if anyone could hear me they was laughin their heads off.. "nicole do it do it do it.. lol i was chanting, then i got more tired i was like what the heck are you traiing for you are ready for this!!!! No do it and shut up and stop letting your head tell you to stop:) " Needless to say my 3 min went to 4 cause i was so busy yellin at myself:D The second rep of 3 min run came around and i had it easy. I really think following the program is a good idea and will work. It progresses you at just the right speed.. even if u yell at yourself! So anyone been checkin out their shadows??? If not DO IT. Our shadows have SHRUNK! Go figure! lol They look so good. In workout gear they look even BETTER:) Cause the clothes are more snug:) I love those Ahhhhaaaa moments:D
