Ashley-we were posting at the same time. I am going to call you at my lunch. Between 11 and 11:45am.

Hey All! I am so exiced. I just had my internet reconnected at work....After 1 semester of being down....I will try to check in and post more often. I have to get used to it being slow though. The signal is not as stron as mine at home. Reggie-thanks for telling me to check my PM's I often forget about looking in there. See you Saturday. I can't wait to meet you. Riley-Luv the thought of the warm bed and warm man. Ok, so I think my band and scale like me today....It said I was 200.5lbs this morning. I am so happy. I have been trying harder and trying to "feel" the restriction. I have been doing well while at work...It's when I come home that I have the "problem". Jes-I may need to try to make an appt now. Dr. Fisher told me to make an appt the 1st of April. The only thing is that they always tell me the calendar doesn't go out that far. You are right. They need to open more facilities specifically for fills. I am not sure if I am going to the Richmond Support Group meeting tomorrow. I have to see. TTYL..............

Welcome Laurel! Don't feel bad if you and Liz didn't hit it off. Many people have issues with her.... Overall, she's okay once you get to know her. Better than that chick, Robin.....But shhh!!!! My mouth, again!!!

Good evening everybody! Had a great weekend! Exercised and all. Ate well too. I haven't lost an oz though. Oh well, maybe tomorrow the scale will be nice to me. I have eaten lots of meat/protein and have an upcoming TOM...Maybe that's why.... So, who all is coming to the get together at Reggie's House???? Reggie-can you post you address again??? Thanks for extending the invite to the kids. Do you want me to bring something? Is there a theme? Ladies-are we going to take our measurements???? I know we discussed doing so before. I really need to do it. I could kick myself for not doing it when I started this process. Maybe I'd feel better when the scale doesn't move and I knew I was losing inches...I can tell that my body is changing. However I can't tell from what I see... My brain still has me down as an overweight...obese person. Jes-I am going to meet and pick-up Ashley in Antioch and take Hwy 4 out. Would you like to ride with us? Is Candra coming/riding with you? I don't mind driving. However, I won't be able to leave until around 2:30pm. I have to attend Gayle's sister's funeral service at 11am and the repast. I plan to go to the step class again tomorrow at 5:30pm at the 24 Hour Fitness in Concord. I hope I make it...I am still sore from yesterday's class. It feels good though. Haven't felt this good in years. I'm such a boring person. I love to come straight home after work...Especially on Monday's. I hope all are well....TTYL......

Good afternoon ladies and gent! I feel good. I went to 24 Hour this morning after not stepping foot in a gym in approx. 3 years!!!! I did a step aerobics class. Luv them....and actually lasted the entire time. I did my own thing and kept movin' when I could not get the step.... Hey, isn't the goal to keep it movin'??? I have to break into Onederland this week. Enough is ENOUGH! Ashley and Lee-congrats on getting the scale to move in the right direction. I hope we all get moving this weekend and make something happen.

Ashley, okay were there! I will call you over te weekend.

Good morning all! How are you all? I plan to do well today! How about you?

Ashley-I do plan to go and may have both my babies with me...I may leave the little one at home. I have another engagement in the morning and am not sure what time I am going to be finished. Do you want to ride??? I don't mind driving.

Hi Everyone!!! Lee, how exciting. Glad you have jumped through all the hoops. Tell the group I said, "Hey!" What thread is it again. I will register! However, I don't think I can keep up with 2 sites. I barely have time to keep up with this one. Pat-I'm glad to see you are doing well and are up and around. Keep up the great work. I can't wait to see you. I know you probably won't make it to Reggie's.... Tamra-Go job on the loss. Like previously stated...this is when you lose the most...Try not to cheat...I know I did... Ashley-Yes, girl, drag me there. I plan to go next meeting. It sounds like you had fun!!! Reggie-I may bring my 6 year old daughter...Now the baby...That's another story.... She will distroy you place. Don't want to get kicked out...JK. I may not bring her though. Daddy's got to do somethin'. Do you want us to bring anything???? Jes-I will try to make you party. Thanks for the invite. Candra-you should share the restriction. I think I have some....I'm just hard headed like Jes and I don't listen very well. ROTF LMBO! Nicole, Lee and John.....Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!! John, where are you? What 12:00pm appt??? What happened???? I have had a pretty good day. Ate well, exercised well....Oh, the scaled moved a tad bit this morning too!!! Maybe there is something to this eating right, following the plan and adding exercise???? Who knew?

Reggie? Is the get together kid friendly?

Good Evening All!!! So much is going on this week....Pat banded...John and Lee attending surgery orientation....Nicolie and Lee getting their surgery dates....OMG!!! Nicole's family tragedy...OMG!!! I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers. This week has been a true challenge. I hope all are doing well with the eating. Let's try to make good decisions....I know I am and boy is it hard....I have been eating up a storm...feeling little to no restriction.

Nicole, my deepest prayers are with you and your family. Sorry to hear such tragic news. I'm at work and can't post a real messege. Will do later tonight. Reggie, is the party at your house kid friendly? Also, what time is he party?

NO FRIES TAMRA!!! I JUST HAD TO SAY THAT CUZ...THEY GOT ON ME FOR MY CHICKEN WINGS!!! LOL PAT-Happy you are now banded and doing well. Hello all....gotta go watch Biggest Loser. TTYL....

Hi everybody! Thanks for the update on Pat. I'm glad things went well.

Good luck Nicolie and Lee! Pat , r u ready for tomorrow! Lots if love! Keep us posted. Nicolie!!! Where the heck r u??? You know we need details. Lol

OMG!!! good girl Nicolie! How exciting!

Heather-yes gurl... I'm using salad plates. But mostly paper plates. Isn't it funny how our eyes can be tricked into thinking our portions are larger if using a smaller plate? Yes hunger is all innour heads. This is truly my week to bust into Onederland! I am I have a 5lbs goal!!! By valentines day I will lose 5lbs!!!

Candra-yes it truly is a process. I am trying to get more serious. I need to be summer ready. I have to break into Onederland! Tired of being tired of being "fluffy".

Pat, CoCo, and Lee-Great job on the weightloss...You ladies are on a roll. Pat-definately let us know how you are on Tuesday. I can't wait...Try to get some rest... Are you ready? Have all your supplies??? Candra-Is your right ear pulling/tugging? I have pretty good restriction with the 5cc's. Its just that I have to learn when I've had enough. The portions I need don't measure up in my eyes. Food B-1/2 hotlink, 2 sausage links, 1 scram. egg and coffee L-handfull of almonds and ??? not yet D-???

Hey Everybody! Jes-How are you?

Hi Alison! Welcome to the group. Happy trails.... I'll have to let someone from your area answer your travel ???. I have no idea how long it takes to get there.

Hey everyone! Happy Saturday! Just popping in here for a second. Lee-Thanks for the invite and a great time at lunch with the Northern Cali Group. It was fun...Lots of wonderful people. Hope to see you all soon... So is Feb 6 a go Reggie??? TTYL..................

I must have sent my number out in cyberspace...opps! I just pm'd you.

Hey lady! Drink some chicken broth. It always helps me. I was so weak during the liquid phase. Be strong Tamra. It won't be long.

Hi everyone. Lee, I just sent you a PM. Check your inbox.
