tamra.

I hope your right Monique lol. I'll tell you what, the food was damn good, but not worth 9 lbs LOL...I am sure it's just everything sitting. TMI But I am backed up BAD when I diet....WTH? Have fun tomorrow ladies, I guess your going to a meeting?

is it humanly possible to gain 9 lbs in 2 days? LOL I just weighed myself and it said 270...ummm I was 261 on Tues? WTF? I am guessing its all the food sitting inside me...*sigh* back on the diet tomorrow then a weight check Monday Morning. Question to the banded - it's taking me a long time to loose the 35 lbs, since July...do I need to update anyne at bariatrics that I am still trying? I don't want them to think I stopped and I am forced to start all over again....

Candra / Jess what's this body thing you are speaking of? Okay I can tell you now I will be up some weight next week, I made a "Turtle Pumpkin Pie" LOL...mmmmm!! :thumbup:

Morning all, I woke up STARVING!! Probably because all I had yesterday was a coffee, and then around 7 pm I finally ate a plate of lettace with my left over steak on top....used olive oil/lime juice as the dressing. Also got 50 oz of water in me. Close enough lol. Hopefully every one has a great holiday if you don't come on here! I will be on all day, nothing going on over here LOL gonna cook @ my place tomorrow instead of my mom's as planned.....gonna light a fire in the fire place in the morning, and decorate my dining room table. I am worried about how much I will gain tho!!!! esp. since I bought Granny Goose brand chips hehe!

Nice to meet ya Cindy!! You found a great group of people for info thats for sure!! If it wasn't for everyone I woulda quit a long time ago!!!! :ohmy:

Cinarose- What's your name? My dr is in Martinez, but I go to Pinole to check weight alot. I know your area, was there at the park next to Concord High the other day leting my daughter play :ohmy:

Hi all, GREAT NEWS! My unemployment was FINALLY approved, after me not working in 1 month and 2 weeks...lol...I should be getting my first check this week...I am SO HAPPY and relieved...it will be a happy thanksgiving after all :ohmy: Side note, I havent ate anything all day!! I had a coffee around 9 am, drinking water, and have no desire to eat?? strange

Nicollie - yeppers, got the coffee one! I liked it, but maybe the milk choco is better. Cinarose - Welcome!!! I am happy to have another Concord person here. What area ya from? I am in North Concord by Port Chicago. Well, today I stopped by Pinole Kaiser and did a check on the weight. DARN IT. their scale told me I was 4 lbs heavier then mine at home. 261.2 so I went ahead and updated my ticker to match theirs. I will not weigh myself at home ANYMORE and will go back to using their scales. So, 11.2 to go till goal. Hopefully I can knock those off fast. We will see. I almost wanna say the Atkins shakes don't help....but can't say for sure.

Have fun Lee!! Say hello to Boston for me, wish I was there with my family for Thanksgiving!! Oh and the chicken place is called "Wild Chicken Rottiserie" LOL...This is day 2 I haven't had it and am I CRAVING IT!!! I am worried about Thanksgiving, I know I will pig out...

Breakfast- Atkins Shake (I found a coffee one!!!) Lunch - 3 double cheeseburgers with just onions from BK...no bread, etc...I felt sick after this tho, to many patties.

Hi everyone!!! Candra - I posted them on craigslist, I will PM you the link. The pictures arent that great cause I used my cell phone. Monique - I may do that 10 am class! The only problem is I am suppose to go with my friend to his family's thanksgiving that day. I can let you know by Weds is that okay? Pat - You mentioned you coulda had 12/7 with Baggs - Is that SURGERY date or something else? If that's Surgery date that excites me, and lets me know he isn't that backed up...LOL... Today the scale: 257.1 ...... whooo hooo!! 7.1 lbs till goal! I think I will be banded by Feb for sure~! whatcha think?

Breakfast - Venti Skinny Latte, canadian bacon, and some cheddar cheese Lunch - split almost a full bag of 'veggie' chips with my friend, they were tomato/spinch/potato Dinner - 1/2 chicken, salad with ranch, and 2 pieces of bread.
