Ready to Lose

LET THE PARTY BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HAVE JUST LOST .5LBS!!!! NO, I'M NOT JOKING. IT HAS TAKEN ME ABOUT 2 MONTHS FOR THE SCALE TO MOVE:lol:

What's the matter with u travel girl? R U sick and tired or just really sick?

Yes, Let's curse the inventor of junk food:mad: (just kidding) Good luck on your new journey!!!!

Ive never had a massage, I like the idea, but I think I'd get a little wierded out with someone else massaging my whole body (especially when my fat rolls move with them with every wave of their hand:biggrin:, how SEXY!!) I know its another 'fat' hangup!!! Unfortunately my first thought went to anniversary cake too! This needs so more thought!!! But, holy crap............I have been without carbonated beverages for a YEAR!!! I thought that I was going to DIE without my diet coke. (so did my kids as a matter of fact! No one knew what hit them!! Crystal Lite Rules!!!

I second that advise. Fish/Chicken liquid whey products!!! Good luck:biggrin:

Hey guys : Sorry I haven't been around, my computer is totally down now, (I'm at my parents house now). So nothing new here still fighting the scale. Hasn't moved in either direction. I absolutely love Wendy's Chili! Anyone else? I know its so random, but who cares? Just seeing if anyone is out there. My 1 year is Feb. 5th!!!!!!!!! Whooow! Party!!!! Anyone have any celebration ideas they are looking forward to themselves?

Good morning guys, Yeah baby girl, that is the same with me. Definately enough restriction, yet hungry in 1 - 2 hours. It is becoming more of a reality that the band is a 'tool'. Although I have ALOT more to lose, my first goal is 180. It is kicking my ass though. I can't get below 188 for more than 1 day! Currently I'm at 190 (again) I have lost 60lbs, dont have any loose skin yet! Its crazy, I look like a skinny person if you view my face, neck, arms , legs, and butt, my stomach is holding at least 50lbs itself! (horrors:ohmy:) Sorry just bitchin

Me 2-- 2-tomorrow

Hey ladies: thanks for the advise and the menu. I think an overhaul on my eating habits is necessary! I'm gonna try to eat some of your suggestions (definately no tofu though!)You both seem so dedicated, thats great.! My keyboard is messed up (it has taken like 20 minutes to write this much,) I'l be back 2-morrow

Yeah.. Lazy bypasers! Anyway, I think I'm screwed! Can't eat whole meat (steak, chops etc) no chicken. Can eat popcorn, icecream, chili, & eggsalad and for some strange reason McDonalds double cheese burger w/out the bun! What gives? What are you guys eating these days? Just looking for variation of menu. Some anniversary party we'll have with 4 people:wink2:

Keep up the gassy remarks and no one will show.! Nothing happening here, just trying to stay stable.! I'm the type of loser who stays stagnant for months then drops 5lbs then nothing for another 3 months. It has taken me 6 months to lose the last 10lbs that I lost! Getting a little frustrated!

Today was a good day for me, I try really hard to make healthy choices. (the kids junk food gets the better of me sometimes, that goodness I cant eat that much of it!!) It is a slow process but I wouldn't change a thing...........there is no way in hell that I would have lost and kept off 60lbs without my band!!!!!!!!!!!

babygirl: Yeah, I second that!! Anyway, How are you doing? Your loss is amazing. How are you doing as far a fills? I'm at 4.25cc in a 4cc band. Hoping that the band will have enough room in it for my lifetime. So what about you? My ticker is almost accurate--- Ive been playing with the same 2 - 3 pounds in either direction. (hoping this last fill helps)

Going for fill today, I am already at 3.8cc's in a 4 cc band. I will let everyone know what happens. Hoping for more restriction, I managed to gain back some pounds over holiday!

Bruce: Just wondering, how much did they say that they could go over the 10cc's with your band? How long have you been banded? I'm hoping for my 'sweet spot' this time!!!

Yes, I have some restriction but definately need more. I still haven't found my "sweet spot". My weight loss happens in spurts, I plateau for months!! I'm hoping this will be it!!!!

Banded in February, but always check in on Jan. site. I have 3.8cc's in a 4cc band. Getting nervous cause I only have .2cc's to go, and still a good deal of weight to take off. Does anyone know what happens when we reach 4CC's?:cry

Just checking in to see how all my fellow February Bandsters are doing!! My ticker is not accurate, but I am down approximately 55lbs. Any other Feb's out there that wish to share? Enjoy the holidays!!!!!!!!!

Tifferoni326: You are a true inspiration!!!!!!!!!!!!! Way to go!!!!!!!! Just reading about you makes me PROUD!! Keep up the positive attitude and keep going for goal. Hopefully I wont be too far behind you:car:

Cosean: I am also looking forward to my one year (can't believe it is so close) I still have a great deal to lose, but it feels wonderful where I'm at now!! I'm sure you feel the same. P.S. Thanks for the response

anybody have this? I definately over-ate the other night. Last night and all today I have been having pain/discomfort across my stomach (under breast area) I can not take full breaths without pain. no yawning, etc can't lay down to sleep (uncomfortable). Called nurse said that I was most likely 'blocked' and should try Meat tenderizer. Did that around 2 pm. its around 11:00pm now and still no luck. this is really strange to me as I have only been 'blocked' before in my throat. Any one else have this?:help:

I found it in the spice area of the super market. My doctor told me to take 2 teaspoons with 1 cup of warm Water and drink it down. I tasted as if I was drinking a cup full of ocean water. I don't know how it worked,, but it did!!!!!!!!!! I am now keeping it in my pantry just in case!!

Well I am happy to report that the 'meat tenderizer' worked. This morning I woke with just a hint of the previous discomfort. I wish this pain on no one........but I'm assuming if this happened to me it could happen to all........so be careful not to over do it like I did.:whoo:

Armkam: I agree with Denise822 I think you should get checked out via fluro. That is how I had my first fill done. They cansee if everything is a ok!!! In my opinion, if something is broke, you should try to fix it. (I hope thats not the case though) Let us know what happens. You have done absolutely wonderful, you have lsot 70 lbs.......Your amazing!!!

out there? how are you all doing? I've hit a rock, haven't moved in a while, but desperately grateful for weight I have kept off (almost 50:clap2:) so what about you?
