Hi Rebecca, if you look around the forum, you will see many wonderful success stories. ive lost about 150 pounds, still have some more to go, but 150 pounds down isnt bad... welcome to LBT and good luck with your research.

Karey, oh yeah... i knew i was forgetting something ... breathing ... yikes... i already have too much on my to do list

thanks Karey... yeah, i love DD as if i did carry her and she looks like she is my DH's, same facial expressions, everything... bizarre!! the PS nurse said i would only have to wait for 6 months until we could stop using birth control, so thats not too bad ... nothing wrong with being an 'old mom' i guess... sorry about that shalee, i wish you the best in whatever road you travel. i think it's the drugs ... :wink2:

woooo hoooo Karey!!

:biggrin: OMG .... coughing. i like Ginger Snapp too. you are so incredible BBK, so proud of you!!!

Amy - cant believe 2 days!!! so excited for you!

Karey, oh damn, i cant even imagine doing those pics again. brutal!! yeah, those 'concent' forms are quite scary to read... mine came in a 'book' of sorts. initial here, sign there. do you want a blood transfusion if you need it, etc... :biggrin::eek::redface: i cant believe we're getting so close!! what's the verdict on the girls?

thanks so much guys, SUPER swamped at work, but i wanted to let you know it's a GO... 9 more days will respond more later... i shouldnt even be on here now ... YIKES!!

thanks so much guys, SUPER swamped at work, but i wanted to let you know it's a GO... 9 more days

cause im about 9 days from my plastics

wow, it is getting close! best of luck to you! the band really has changed my life.

thanks Lauren. its been a stressful week. i posted more to my blog, it's just so scary, ya know?

wooo hooo... that's not too long. you are going to look even more amazing!! :thumbup:

OMG! i cant even imagine seeing them... i can sometimes feel mine, but seeing them???? *faint*

wooo hooo! great job!

congrats!!

Wooo hoooo! i started mushies on day 7 at the blessing of my doc too. welcome to bandland and do take the mushies easy, potatoes can get stuck relatively easy ...

Amy, that is wonderful!! congratulations!!

lulu, after the first couple of days, i was ok with not weighing... try it for a couple of weeks... all else fails you can run out and grab it ...

**sigh** thank you so much. i truly appreciate it. as of right now, im saying PS is on. i need to take care of this, heal and then we'll see what happens. early last week DH and I were content on only having DD (we even had the talk about preggers after TT)... this kinda made us want to not try to not try if that makes sense ... we arent really going to be trying (or thinking about trying, we'll be doing the fun schtuff ), but thinking about it just stresses everyone out... whoa, where did this go... TMI!! so, unless i hear from PS that it's off, it's on... will probably update my blog more than here though...

Tami, thanks and no need to be embarrassed at all ... we are both potentially having to delay surgery and its not easy for either of us. to be honest, yesterday sucked food wise, but i allowed myself yesterday and today will be better. since i am completely unfilled, i have NO restriction :eek::Banane41::eek:!!!! starbucks for breakfast, double cheese whataburger (:laugh:) with fries for lunch, small dinner but DH and i split a pazzookie from BJ's for dessert. a pazzookie is a freshly baked cookie (not thoroughly baked so it is sooooooooooo ooooooooooooo good) with ice cream on top ... :smile2: again. so today, is better. i still havent exercised and my trainer already emailed me telling me she expects to see me in the gym this afternoon. that's why i have her, she holds me accountable. well, ive decided im going to go through the surgery IF my PS will let me. hopefully counts will continue to drop as expected and in 11 days i'll be relatively flat. im pretty sure my pannus is the issue with carrying a child. there's a lot of hormones in fat cells and a baby does not need that. DH and I adopted from China almost 3 years ago and we are SO blessed with her, but i really would love to carry my DH's child . but... im ok. really thank you... i really appreciate you guys putting up with my drama... mommi-hammi is on for today ... thinking of you!!!!

julie, you look absolutely stunning!

well, it's been one hell of a week, but i havent weighed myself. scale is still sitting in my DH's car in fact.

dont forget that most of the items on the kid's menu is pure garbage. fried chicken fingers and fries, macaroni & cheese, bleck.. maybe a bowl of Soup and some of a companion's piece of steak / chicken / whatnot??

faith, yes, again ... fun stuff. :wub: and who said anything about virtual chocolate??? :tt2: i think im going to go forward with the plastics... not 100% sure though.
