I found I really only like the lemonade and rasberry lemonade crystal light. The rest are just to sweet. I did like the ocean spray grape/cranberry but I am tired of that one two now......grapefruit is strong. And fruit punch stains everything including your lips. Gotta go with the lemonade just I have a bunch of other CL packages to use up.......oh and the orange is good too but hard to find. I just tried the hawiian punch ones and I like the grape and orange the best..........the rest were to sweet. Oh I watched the video for those shoe. Hmm i am impressed have kneww problems and they are suppose to help with that too. I am gonna save up and get some. I see some of them are stylish not orthopedic looking............where did you get them? I am thinking famous footwear and kohls has alot of sketchers..........oh and all the reviews online are great!!

I looked up workout sketchers and it popped right out. They look like really heavy, awkward shoes...........dod they put you off balance?

Hey Candra I am wondering if I should go to the endocronologist too. I lose weight so slowly........ When I started all this lap band stuff back in November I had my PCP run all the tests she could on me. I knew my health was bad and I was getting sick way to much so I had her run it all diabetes, thyriod, cancer, heart issues, kidney issues.................I mean everything and it all came back fine just to fat!! I doubt they will run it again but I think my body is all messed up...........better than a year ago for sure but still........... I am retaining water really bad and have swollen ankles all the time and my blood pressure and heart rate is way to high still...........or again. I just wonder if I need to keep up with the testing to be sure............ i am going in for a choleseral screen this week sometime. I am chacking out those shoes online. So they make you tall? They look like it??

Ok Nicole here is the phone number 965-9453 for the bird rescue. If they won't take the bird let me know my friend will take it up at her farm. Hope that helps out.

Hey Nicole I have a lady I work with that runs an animal rescue that will take the duck. You would have to get it to placerville or bring it to my work though. She has a farm with a pond. She takes in all the strays around here. She is also trying to get the bird rescue here in sacramento. She is getting an address and phone

I think UC Davis might help out. I ate to much today but only the nachos. I just need to exercise some more. I am so NOT craving nachos anymore.............they wen't that good so I only ate 1/2 and realized I didn't like them that much!!

Call the UC Davis vet school Nicole. They might help out. YOu are like me I can't stand to see animals hurt. I don't know how many rescue animals have been through my house the last few years............I have two cats now. One is a rescue cat someone threw in the trash when he was 5 weeks old........... siamese cat no less. I have another siamese cat that is 12 years old that I paid big buck for. I have five cats here for awhile last fall but found homes for the rest of the babies............ But I hear ya I just hope the duck stay put tonight....

My daughter is an only child and I get the having to be entertained all the time!! LOL. It doesn't get better at 14.........they still expect to be enteratained. Hard not to be a bit spoiled as an only child.............just happens. She was also the only grandchild for 12 years so ............she is just plain spoiled and she will tell ya she is!! Pam have fun at Six Flags..........sounds like your doing good. I think I am ready for a fill again. I had alot of restriction this morning. Not feeling it now. So weird. I have drank alot of water today. But I can eat more than 1/2 cup today again. Trying to be careful. I did get the 99 cents nachos at taco bell but only ate half the idea was better than the taste!!! BUt no my craving is done...........LOL. The rest of the day as good so far.......

Nicole I am going back and forth between 212-214. Lowest so far is 211 but only for about 4 hours later int he day it was 213..............My weight is all over the place right not. But never over 214 so that is why I am keeping that weight for now...........I will move it when the scale quits playing around. I am defenitely a 16 now.

I have a 14 year old girl that is driving me crazy this summer!! She turns everything into a huge argument.......even when we actually do agree. I love her to death but she is making me crazy this summer. I hear ya all on the kid issue. I plan to be there friday unless my daugther needs to get ready for camp.......we might be out running errands. I am trying to get her moving early this week so that we won't hit a time crunch the end ofthe week. So far she is dragging her feet still!!

Yea I know about the saliva thing...........it is all over once that happens!! I usually start to pace around trying to prevent a PB and my daughter know something is wrong.......I am so afraid of he band slipping and I figure I have to prevent it if I can.......... Been better this fill about not PBing so much. And yep my band is tight in the morning too. BUt yesterday I woke up with no restriction.......and didn't have much all day I might need a fill but I have to wait it out to see.......

Glad I did lap band cause I would have been the prime example of RNY hairloss.............right now I can tell my hair is much thinner but I don't think it is noticable really. Just doesn't' feel the same and really hard to do anything with right now............. I had stitches on my head once and they had to shave a bit of my hair.........it grew back in curly when I had straight before. Weird stuff but I know it happens. I think my hair has just been through to much......

yea I am down 2 pant sizes since surgery..........so Riley I say lets go with pant size!! Ok so down .5 pounds since yesterday so it is all good. I just can't have another day like yesterday. But I woke up hungry today. How can that be after I ate to much yesterday?? But working today and I have a really busy day so I won't have time to think about eating I will just have to squeeze it in somewhere. That helps it distracts me............

one inch hairs Riley that is funny..........I am next!! Gel I will push them down or fix them with gel!! I have a plan!!

we all have problems losing and keeping it off!! Thus the lap band...... PB is productive burping it is a lap band thing. IF you eat to much it gets pushed up in the esophagus and comes back up.......hurts in the process not a terrible amount of fun involved!! I for one don't like it!! But I do like that I can't eat as much!!

I am still losing hair. IT is thinner, yep for sure. But I no one besides me has noticed. I hear it comes back. I am not bald or anything but I had really thick hair and don't now. Worse around my face and temples..........but the weight lose is worth it. Now if I was bald than I might be freaking out a bit more.........just hair on my clothes and in the shower all the freaking time.........ponytail is not thick anymore. I hear from others it will come back.............I believe it :-)

I have never been a nacho person but goodness all weekend I have wanted them.........I figure if I could taste them it would be over one way or another........I would realize I don't like them or that I DO LIKE THEM............that is what I am afraid of. I don't know sometimes I think you have to have a bite of something now and than...........the way I ate today I would have been better off with nachos and none of the other stuff........LOL. I am in danger zone and it is all over nachos!!

The lunch is open invitation. all are welcome. How tall are you? I was 254 and 5'5. I only had to lose 12 pounds to get my surgery. Everyone is different thought. ANd don't lose before you go into orientation........believe me don't. Wear heavy shoes and jeans (drink and eat as well before you go but NOT in the class!!) to weigh the first time.......than never again. From there on out you need light clothes and no shoes to weigh!! I have to promote Dr. Baggs if you asking!! :-) Liked him alot!! Lap band King not that he will admit it though :-)

Riley I hear you on the PB'ing. I gave up last night and figured it was just a low cal day..........but today I can so eat anything.........usually at Panera I can't finish my lunch today I finished it all not even a little of the last bite syndrome....of course I didn't touch the bread at all.......soup and salad only!! Actually no bread today except for the pizza I sampled but it was like a cracker...... Oh wait there was bread on the starbuck sandwich and it didn't bother me at all today.......three days ago I could only eat 1/2 of it....... I don't know. Moody band I have here!! I prefer when it barks a bit louder than today though......

I weigh and I am only one pound up from this morning. Gonna hit the Water here since I am only at 1/2 of what I am suppose to be right now............... We will see how it goes. I really could eat some more and have been craving nachos for days now. I refuse to buy the chips but I am thinking my daugther needs to order taco bell nachos so I can taste them......but she won't ....cause I will taste them.......... I want a couple of bites not the whole darn bag. If I buy them it is all over........... Who wants some nachos?? LOL. Can I taste yours?? Donna I know about the green zone there is the lap band book I have that explains all of it......interesting!!

I am NOT nasious at all so it must be head hunger and with as much as I ate today..........well gotta be head hunger!!

I haven't been this hungry for months.........weird. My appetite was crazy today. I could still eat actually but I know this has to be it for today.............good grief I went way, way over my limit today. Maybe I just ate to many sliders today. Yesterday the band was so tight I was thinking about asking Dr. Baggs to take some out at the next visit.....I had two really bad days before today where I could not eat much without getting stuck. Than BAM.......starved!! Ok well I figure my body needed the calories today for some reason but I hope this was just a one day thing. Good grief I am still hungry as we speak. Not sure if it is head hunger or really hungry!! I have been home from work for 4 days that might be part of it!!

Any word on the job Nicole? Have fun this weekend. I will be up dropping my daughter off at summer camp this weekend by Tahoe. Donna your killing me here. How did it go?? All is well??

Ok I only ate 720 calories yesterday and even with that I PB'd some of it...........no wonder I was so hungry today. I ate I think..........1600+ calories today. B: Broccoli soup and salad (Panera 500 cal) L: Egg salad sandwich (starbucks 480 cal) Sample peice of pizza at whole food (75 cal) Rasberries (80 Cal) D: Amy's organic dinner (380 calories) S: Frozen Lemonade (300 cal) Ok the frozen lemonade and sample pizza were what did me in. I thought the frozen lemonade was 90 calories that is what the girl said. BUT......when I got home and looked it up it was 300!! It was a snack at the movies I would have done better with a starbuck skinny latte...........hopefully yesterday low cals will balance out today.........good grief I was really hungry today and no restriction that I could even tell............ We will see what the damage is tomorrow!! Done for the day obviously........
