abatts, which one is you in your aviatar??? lisa

Hi everyone. Hope all is well with everyone. Lindata, welcome. I know...... 50 pages is a lot. Go to the Doctors website, it will help with information. (noscales.com) I haven't had a problem with either doctor. I think the world of both of them. Their staff is the best. I think everyone on this thread thinks the same. I don't know of anyone that have used them think otherwise. The decision to have the procedure is ultimately up to you. You are the only person that is able to make it. I don't know how long you have been researching, but the more information you have will help in making the decision. I speak for myself, I would not change a thing. I am losing slower than some, but at least I'm losing. Sure, I could have lost it on my own, but keeping it off is the key to good health and that's what I'm after. So, If you have any questions, please feel free to ask, k? Abatts, welcome also. You are doing great, keep up the good work. And don't be a stranger. We are all in this together and if we can help........ Sunlight, I can not eat bread. Toasted or otherwise. Strange, I can have crackers, but no bread. It's like Sugarbear said, everyone is different. I got brave enough to try some rice last nite. Made me hurt, so I guess I can't have it. I don't need it anyway. I made a new dish for the man of the house and I just wanted to taste it anyway. You know how it is, if you cook, you gotta taste. lol lo2us, remember..... relax. I promise I wasn't kidding yesterday when I said when you tense up, it makes your skin tighten. It makes it harder for the needle to slip thru. But I know you will be ok. Let us know how things go. I am ready for a fill myself. I not thinking "tweak" anymore. I want the whole fill. lol Yall have a good day! lisa

Oh Susan, I forgot..... since you were "banned from the site" (lol) we have a meeting monday nite. Are you coming this time?????? If you don't, I'm coming to your house with a switch. lisa

That's cool. Now you know what it feels like to not have to go thru the ringer to get a fill. ljg

Susan, did you get a fill? lisa

It just tore up some stuff in beautiful, downtown, Talco. Skeered me, we were in MP when it hit. My phone started ringing like crazy. ljg

<p>Shannon, was that a typo???? SLIME FAST???? lol</p>

<p>Hi Cmoomoos. Your fill will be kinda like a shot. It's not bad. Just a little sting. Try not to tense up. Believe it or not, your skin gets tighter when you tense up and makes it sting a little more. I promise, it's not really bad. I have had fills by both docs also. Either of them are fine. I prefer not to get the lidocaine to numb the area, but some people would rather have it. Discuss it with your doctor and then decide, k. I got 1.7cc my first fill. And, please post and let us know how it went. Don't be a stranger.</p> <p> </p> <p>Sugarbear, glad yall had a good meeting last nite. Ours is next monday nite. Hope to have a good one too. I'm still hungry. I regret not getting a small fill last month. And I don't know about where yall live, but the mesquitos are trying to carry us off when we go outside. They didn't make a strong enough mesquito spray for skeeters in northeast Texas. That really makes it hard to get out and get some exercise. lol You get carried off instead of getting to walk!</p> <p> </p> <p>We had a tornado this morning. How bout that. I didn't think our little community was big enough to have something like that happen. Some trees down and one building messed up. Other than that, everything else was not damaged. Grace of God. Praise him that no one was injured. That's all I have to say about it.</p> <p> </p> <p>Shannon, you have almost caught me. Way to go!! Stay with it. Kindergarten starts soon. I know you will be glad to get back into the swing of things.</p> <p> </p> <p>Talk to yall later.</p> <p>lisa</p>

What a post..... All my "stuff" got re-arranged. What's up with that?????? lisa

Hi everyone. Hope everyone had a great holiday. We got rained out of doing some stuff that we had planned, but still had a good time. I wish there was a smiley that had it's lip stuck out. I would use it several times this morning. I was very bad this weekend. Tried not to eat, but I wasn't too sucessful. But, today is a new day and I think the sun is gonna shine, so I will start again. Maybe I can walk in the mud and get more exercise. lol Hey Sharon! You are as old as you feel. Do you feel like a granny? ;o lol I didn't think so. lol Well, better git. Yall have a good day lisa Shannon, I try to make my appointments in the mornings. I always eat a small breakfast before going. And of course you get the free continental breakfast after the fill. lol Liquids for the rest of the day, then mushies the next. Just like Sharon said. Just take it easy. Remember, sometimes it takes a couple of fills to make a big difference. Once you get a couple, you will realize that. Just hang in there, you are doing great.

Susan, nope, I haven't washed away......yet. I saw my dogs with scuba gear yesterday. lol The ducks are definately roosting in trees. lol lo2us, when you slime, you will definately know it. It's gross and I won't go into details, but I promise you will know. My first solids were chicken, and green beans. Hamburger was on the list also. Just rember to chew well. lisa

Sugarbear, it's raining...... I can't get away from the kitchen. It's three weeks until I can get a fill. No one has tied me up in the house, I just can't get outside and do anything.......FOOD is staring me in the face everytime I walk thru the house. Besides, I'm not an inside person anyway. I HAVE CABIN FEVER!!!!! lisa

Good mornin to everyone! Hope everyone is doing ok this mornin. You too Susan. I see you!!! lol I knew this would happen. I wish I had gotten a small fill on the 19th. I'm looking for something to eat. It doesn't help much that we have to stay in the house!! This is gonna be a long 3 weeks. Yall pray!!! Yall have a Happy 4th of July. I think we are going to six flags. Don't that sound fun? Wanna go? Catch us if you can. lol I'm gonna ride everything my son rides. He is just as much a dare devil as I am. Dad gets sick, so it's up to me to be the dare devil's side kick. So....wish me luck. Hope I don't get sick. That would not be fun! lisa

Way to go Priss. Keep us posted. Hey everyone else! How are yall this morning? Sunlight, glad to here you are feeling better. Hang in there, you will get to eat mushies soon. Yall have a good day! lisa

Way to go Shannon!!! I hope I can say that before long. I guess when you are old, it takes more time for the bp to go down. lol :eek: Lynn, I see that ticker!!!! That is great!!!! You are gonna surprise everyone when school starts too. Blondylocks was the name of the girl that got pregnant. I hope she is doing ok. Hopefulchurch must be busy. I wondered about her too. And wannabethin.....that little okie needs to post too. I know, you're an okie too, aren't you? I promise not to hold that against ya! lol I just teased wannabethin about all the time. I have to, it's in my little Texas heart. lol Yall have a good day! lisa

Sharon... what rash? it's gone. I washed everthing again and got rid of the bleach alternative residue. Mystery rash gone. lol My PCP told me the just a week or so ago that if I worked hard this next three months I just might get to get off my bp meds all together. Think I'm working on it? lol Shannon, let us know bout the appointment. I know you did great. Priss...... know you are busy. Little boys are just that way, huh? Mine's seven. Keeps me moving alot too. Hope you are moving right along. Lynn, we're waiting on your ticker. lol Do one for Billy too. You can put it in your signature line. OR HE COULD POST HIMSELF.... HINt LOL Better put hand cuffs on him so the girls won't drag him off. lol OK, I have decided my band has disolved. Since I didn't get a fill the other day, I think it just skipped out on me. This is gonna be a long six weeks. booooo hissssss! Talk to yall later!! lisa

Morning everyone! lisa

Tx Hogwild... I did my pre-op during the Christmas holidays. I'm a whimp, but it can be accomplished. All you need is a little will power and a lot of determination. And support. Thats what we are here for, to support each other. So when the time gets here for your pre-op diet, don't forget to post (more often!!!!) we can help. lisa

I hate humidity. Makes my hair frizz! :confused: lisa

Here's something to get your mouth watering.......Blue Bunny, Light, No sugar added..... PEACH PASSION yogurt. It is soooo gooood for breakfast. Yall enjoy. lol sorry, I'm in a pestering mood this morning. lisa

Thanks Shannon, I have some of the oatmeal stuff. It's not really all that itchy, just looks like I have some type of zambeezee river disease. lol Na, it's much better this morning. I washed all day yesterday and I hope I got everything. Sunlight, all that Water is supposed to help you lose weight. If you don't keep the body hydrated, it thinks it has to store what little water you give it. Water helps wash out all the impurities and left over junk from the fat cells that you are emptying (?) out. So.... drink as much as you are supposed to and don't worry bout water weight. You can always put a little lemon juice in it and it will help you get rid of it. Yall have a Blessed Day!! lisa

Frisky is NOT the word I would have used. lol But, I guess it's as good as any. Maybe....."Oh no, she's back to harass us". Is there one word for that? Pestering, that's the word I was looking for. How's it going for you? I feel like I have no restriction. Ain't that fun? One week from my doctor visit were I said I would try to go without one. lol That figures. I had a great need of some Lasix this morning. My rings are just as tight as when I started this crazy life. lol I had some left overs from before and took one. So, they won't be tight long. lol I know, that cheating, but you gotta do what you gotta do, right? lisa

I'M BBAAAAAAACCCCCCKKKKK!!!!! Just thought you might like to know. lol lisa

Hi Everyone!!!! Guess what?..... I don't know what happened, but it's fixed. (hold your breath, I don't know how long it will stay fixed. lol.) I thought I had said something that someone didn't like and had been banded from the site. I'm glad everyone is doing so good. Sunlight, how are you this morning? Get better soon, k? Shannon, girl......what can I say? You are doing great! Sharon, thanks for posting for me. I have figgered the rash thing out! I used some color safe bleach in the laundry. I guess I'm "just too sensitive" lol. Poor little me.... can't use bleach for anything. Poor pitiful me. lol lol Ok that's enough. MY SCALES WERE WRONG ALL THIS TIME!!! I don't know if that's a blessing or not. lol I had lost 10 pounds last six weeks. (sounds like a report card don't it teachers?) I just knew that my clothes were looser. But they were already loose, so I couldn't tell how much. Time for some new jeans. Vylnn, glad to see Billy is doing better. Tell him we said so. AND, remember what you told me........ move your ticker, girl. One pound is one pound. Man, I thought I was gonna blow up last week. I wanted to post so bad and couldn't. I even went as far as re-registering. I might post one of these days with my alter ego just to see if you can catch me. Yall better look out! lol Hope I can talk to yall later!

Mornin SUUUUSSAAAANNNN!!!!!
