I Had This For Lunch Today!!!!!!

all this talking about lip hair has my upper lip ITCHING!!!!!! (and I am prone to fever blisters, but the wax didn't give me one...thank goodness) Haydee: I laughed out loud at the mosquito bites comment!!!!!! Well........... mine are long and low unless I've rolled them up and stuffed them into a bra! ROFL :smile: Have a great weekend!

WOW!!!!!!!!! didn't know that Haydee! Your entire family is soon to be surigically altered! WOOOOHOOOO Kat: thinking of you! what about some warm broth? sip sip sip

good morning! Well phooey........ my weekend plans are quickly going in the crapper... (((VENT AHEAD))) Charles and Cody were scheduled to go boy scout camping this weekend and Robby and I were planning to spend tonight over at my sisters watching movies and eating "healthy" snacks and slumber partyish... then tomorrow is my moms bday so I was going to suprise her with a visit and lunch..... Well, Charles hurt his back and is now home moaning and groaning saying that he isn't going camping and can I please haul the 4 scouts and their gear out to Lawrence KS (the camp site)...... so now.. if I still go to my sisters he will be pouting at home because I left him alone......... but if I stay he will just be a pitiful grumpy ass who will annoy the crap out of me... not to mention Robby is looking forward to going.......... and then there is the factor that Cody will now NOT want to go if dad doesn't go......... so that will be a fight, and that IS NOT HOW I WANT TO SPEND MY WEEKEND!!!!!! Charles already hung up on me, telling me to call him back when I could manage NOT TO RAISE MY VOICE AT HIM............. gawd.. the pitty party has already started..... and I haven't called him back because I'm still pissed that he is ruining MY WEEKEND.... ((( end of vent )))

LOL!!!!!!!!!! Pam you are such a hoot! Tracy: Baby that unfil! Terry: YUCK....... canned turkey chili...... THE HORROR!

I'm with Michelle........... HOW NORMAL ARE WE?????? Hell.. my whole life is posted somewhere online and I have posted pics of my belly hanging out of my jeans............... how could I fake THAT??

YOu guys are cracking me up............ I have two small tats and Charles and the older boys ALREADY freak out over them..... if I came back with another...... well he might not EVER let me out of the house again.. especially to meet a bunch of crazy women from all over the country! We were just notified that Cody has been elected to get "tapped in" on the same weekend of our V's trip...... (boy scout rite of passage thang) Charles has tried giving me a guilt trip about it....... so now I'm scrambling to find a place for Robby to go so that he can switch weekends with the other two boys mom so he can go on the campout with Cody.... (it's a suprise for Cody).........this is why I booked and paid Terry upfront.. last minute things ALWAYS come up and I didn't want to be guilted out of going.

Hang in there TAMMY!!!!!!!! You have kicked booty! What a difference a year makes

GOOD MORNING! I'm thinking that I may need a bit of a fill because last night we went out for chinese and I ate way way way too much........ (among them about 10 "butter shrimp") omg it was soooooooooo good.. I just kept eating...... I bounced all the way back up to 193 this morning but my rings will not hardly budge off my fingers so I know it is water retention.......... I kind of like the fact that I can eat food.. but it is scarey that I have no control. I think I need to get a grip on my food and then rethink a fill.............. Suzie: that is so scarey about the credit card...

I'm proud to say that I have now drank 3 (30 oz glasses) of water

Hello V's! Laura you had us worried!!!! I have had ONE glass of water today (my first in about 3 weeks) going for number two now...................

Thats AWESOME BBK!!!! Julie: I have been watching your thread.

PS consult scheduled for 4/7/2008... My plan covers removal of excess skin (it states it in the SPD) so I just spent 35 minutes on the phone with my insurance trying to get the "list" of criterian......... you would think it was a closely guarded secret... but FINALLY I was put in touch with a Nurse reviewer in the PRECert department...... This is the list: 1. Medical Necessity must be proven 2. Pictures of Skin, Rashes, breakdown 3. If seen by a dermatologist for the rashes, then receipts from the visit. She was nice about it and I ended up telling her about my band and my success.... my starting jean size and my current jean size... She ended up giving me her first and last name and the exact mailing address WITH department number........ AND I've been having issues with even getting appointments with docs who will even TRY to submit it to the insurance....... dam dam dam

HELLO APRIL AVENGERS!!!!! I thought I'd pop in here and wish you all well!!!! This time last year I was EXACTLY where you are now! Man what a difference over the last year. Get ready for the ride of your lives!!!! Sometimes it will seem slow (like now waiting for surgery) Then it will drag by waiting for your first fill and the ever elusive "sweet spot" Know that you will make it, through surgery, and bandster hell, and eventually you will be clamped down with the proper level of restriction........ (took me 3 fills for lasting restriction) You will find out what happens when you eat something too fast, or take too big of a bite..... (lovely pb and slime) Some of you will be model bandsters and some...... will find your OWN way.. but all of you will find it and learn your particular band.... Feel free to pop in over on the April 07 thread to see where we are all at as our first bandversary approaches!

OK.... 55. So I can put my jeans in the dryer, have a shower, get out of the shower, walk to the dryer and just pull my jeans on, instead of waiting to really, really dry off and then fight to get the zipper up. This one made me snort in laughter!!!!!!! BEEN THERE DONE THAT! Great List!

Men = Jackasses (for the most part) Mine just told me my ass is getting flat.... If you have given him the control over your life and how you live it, then that is your choice.. and if that makes YOU HAPPY then keep doing what your doing.. just be careful not to let his negative opinions minimize all that you (and YOU ALONE) have accomplished!

Laura: OMGoodness............ please keep us updated... you've got me all worried now.

Yeah.. I didn't know we were supposed to post goals...... YIKES! I don't do well with long term goals.... I always sabotage myself with them..... since I hit 189 today.. my next short term goal is 179.....

Weight for contest....... 189.4!!!!!!! (today of all days it chooses to drop) :biggrin: but I have to admit I was EXCITED to see it!

NEVER feel stupid for asking a question! Thats how we learn!!!! :biggrin:
