Boo Boo Kitty

I am sorry as well. I hope you can get some help and turn it around for you! Good luck!

For me it took until my 3rd or 4th before I really had that. Now I miss it so much! It does come Dionna, just takes time! :tongue2:

Thank you Brad. I try to be 100% complete honest about everything here so that people can know me and connect. I feel like even though I have never met face to face most of my friends here, they know me better than anyone in my life. A lot of us are the same people with a different name. :tongue2: Thank you for caring!

Hey all I wanted to share this picture I took yesterday with all of you. This is me now without any binders, spanx any of that. As you can see with clothes the PS looks quite nice. :tongue2:

Heather, not to be a thread stealer, but you look so damn cute in that giant chair! :tongue2:

WOO HOOO Congratulations!! It only gets better gillie! Keep up the great work! You can do it, obviously you ROCK! :cool2: :tongue2:

My grammas when I was 12 announced to everyone in McD's that I had on my first bra and it was a C cup! SO that would be TAME in my family! Yes, the complete and utter horror of it....:tongue2:

Hell ya it is. And no one except us understands. My DH is 100% military disabled now, and will never be the same. I say all the time, I did my patriotic duty and gave my country my husband and was given back a broken down stranger. We can all stick together! :tongue2:

WOOO HOOO! I am taking BOTH! TGIF!

Congratulations Nigel! Thank you for sharing your story!

yum.....can you pass it on?? :tongue2:

Am--scars are nasty, very purple. I hate them! I was going to spend some dough and get some cream from the plastic surgeon but since he is going to have to completely revise me, what is the point? :tongue2: Plain--it is better, thanks. :cool2: Doesn't hurt now unless I bump it!

I ditto this!

EVEN *IF* you didn't get good enough information before the band, how about telling someone after you get it that you are getting sick? HELLO!

Wow, the trolls are coming out in droves here lately. Can anyone else help me say WTH??? Ugh... Trolls please stop trying to stir up trouble a go away unless you have something sensible to say.

lol Laura! Nothing new here really. Congrats Leslie!

I am doing better thanks. This hunger though, sucks. I am back to protien bars to fill me up. :crying: My Dr does 1 day liquids, 2 days mushies and back to regular food. Not too bad. I usually have to take a few extra days of mushies. My body is very sensitive to fills.

You know you love it. Especially from all of us! :mad:

Tina! First Happy Birthday! YAY! :crying: Secondly, I am glad you did what you needed to do to move on! I am glad it worked out for you! I am happy to hear you feel better, I was seriously worried it would make things worse! Lots and lots of hugs! xoxoxx

I can find lots of things that go for and against the lap band on the internet. I still choose to point out that you did not seek medical help, throwing up is a BIG problem, why the hell let it go on for 3 years? Please... I agree you were looking for an easy out. Well sorry the band isn't that! And for the record I have had the band for over 2 years now and THE only time I throw up is *if* I got a fill too tight, and I immediately would go back to the Dr to get it removed. Sorry you didn't take your life seriously enough to do that. I pray that anyone contemplating the band does read this and sees what complete crap this is! My life with the band gets better everyday! That smile you see on top is there for a reason, and THAT was 30 pounds ago! Your story is sad, but again I stress you made a choice to live 3 years that way. That is NOT the way my experience has been. My guess is you will not even have the guts to post here again!

If any of this is true you have your own ignorance to blame. YOU CHOOSE to be too tight. YOU MADE THE CHOICE, not anyone else. YOU COULD HAVE HAD Fluid removed, but YOU DIDN'T. YOU have to live with the consequences.

Ebony thank you for your kind words! :thumbup: It is an honor to be an inspiration, and I truly appreciate it!

Awwww Shelley, I am so sorry! I am SURE you are NOT the only one! Is it that TOM? I know that kills me!

Yes please do, so we can all avoid it! So sorry plain, but the scary myspace one you have is better than that thing! Hugs! lol...

I am gonna call myself on the carpet with this one. I have NOT nor will I EVER give up my coffee. I did however cut down on the high calorie coffee drinks. I drink a McD's iced coffee 32 oz every morning and I am fine!
