JOSETTE,- I AM SO SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR FRIEND'S MOM. KEEP YOUR HEAD UP... WE ARE ALL HERE W/YOU I NEED A SLAP TO GET DRINKING MY WATER! :bored I ABSOLUTELY HATE IT!!:paranoid . I AM HEADING TO THE TREADMILL TO WALK MYSELF THIRSTY!(LOL) SEE YA TOMORROW! TURNER24

I WAS TOTALLY ADDICTED TO REGULAR COKE:tired . IF SHE THINKS GIVING UP THAT WAS EASY SHE IS CRAZY. I GUESS AN EASY WAY OUT W/ WLS WOULD BE IF I COULD STILL EAT LIKE I USED TO AND WATCH THE FAT MAJICALLY MELT AWAY WHILE I STUFF ANOTHER BROWNIE IN!!:heh: WHEN THEY INVENT THAT I'LL SIGN UP FIRST!! REALLY THOUGH, THIS IS A STRUGGLE TO CHANGE OUR ATTITUDES AND WAY OF LOOKING AT food FOR LIFE. THAT IS NOT EASY AT ALL FOR ANYONE, WHETHER THEY HAVE A LAP BAND OR NOT:phanvan . IF I STILL DRANK 4-5 REGULAR COKE'S A DAY...HOW MUCH WOULD I HAVE LOST.......... ...........NOTHING!!!! HOW IS THIS THE EASY WAY OUT? ROSIE AND THE VIEW ARE JUST STUPID AND UNEDUCATED ON THE SUBJECT OBVIOUSLY!! JUST MY 2CENTS!!

I started the day after my surgery... wasn't supposed to...guess it was stress, anyhoo was fine. Just really hard to bend and put in tampons LOL!! turner24

HI GUYS! Just checking in. Having a rough couple of days. Had my 3rd fill on Thursday last week.. just 0.5cc's. I was pretty tight before but could eat around 2cups so I thought just a little.... here's the problem: was okay Friday (stayed on liquids 24hrs like they tell me to after a fill) Saturday up to today- can't keep anything down at all untill right before bedtime!! I am choking on soup right now. Everything causes pain. Do you think I need an unfill?? I hate to do that cause I want to loose so much. Why only loosens up in the evening? Doesn't make sense to me???? Should I tough it out a few more days?? Liquids are fine.. but thats it. Sometimes junk is okay too.......why is that??? I ate a small bag of fritos on Sunday no problem.. just chewed really good. Today though, I can't tolerate the veggies in the soup!! What do you guys think?? Okiefamily - I did the stair all weekend. Couldn't hardly bend over to put on my shoes this morning!!!:clap2: Turner24

CONGRATS TANN!! I am green w/envy! I know someday I'll make it to twerville too!! If I saw 299.9 I'd cry!:think WAY TO GO :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: Turner24

Well...... today we had a bring in at work and I have grazed my way to oblivion!!:hungry: I have got to be good the rest of the day.:rolleyes Okiefamily- I did the stair challenge yesterday and I am soooo sore today!! :omg: I will try very hard to get to it again today though!! Turner24

I can't remember how many times I have literally straddled the toilet to swing the door open!:nervous I am feeling better today...not so homicidal:heh: LOL! I promise not to rant and rave! I went to MD for 1mo visit and I am down 16lbs :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: . Bootcamp has really helped me get moving and motivated. Thank you all for your support . Okiefamily- Don't comprimise! You can still make your goal. Go for it!:biggrin1:

I have to agree w/Jack. It comes down to the fact that you have to decide "Are you worth it?" That helps me realize I didn't deserve how I treated myself and my body w/junk and fattening foods. I wll never go back, because I am realizing for the 1st time.........I am worth it:clap2: Turner24

I think you should be honest w/your MD. How can they help you if your not going to get honest and let them? I doubt you hurt your band w/soft foods, but own up to whats going on and let them decide if you need a fluro to make sure its okay. It will put your mind to rest also. Best of luck! Turner24

I admit it. I hate the Water worst of all!!:phanvan I am exercising and trying to be sooooo gooooood w/my eating. I only drank 20oz of water on Sat/Sun. I tried adding the crystal light ect, but does that count as plain water?? I need a kick in the butt w/your boot Sarge Teresita!!:cry Turner24

I survived our "Friday lunch". I was scared to go out w/my co-workers because of the diet but I did okay I think!:lost1.5lbs: I had black bean pita rollups. Very low fat and Protein filled!! They give you 5 but could only eat 4. I go to MD on 1/17. Can't wait to see what I've lost!:huggie: My jeans are getting baggy too! I need a slight fill as I am getting hungry often:hungry: . I have been walking on the treadmill sarge Teresita!:rofl: I am going to have to admit the weekends are a challenge for me. I promise to behave and report back on Monday! Its supposed to rain all weekend anyway, I'll make some homeade Soup and behave!!!!!!!!:rolleyes Good luck all bootcampers on surviving till Monday! Love you all!

I caught the stomach flu this weekend. Long hell short I spent about 12hrs on the toilet puking or dry heaving into a can :speechles lovely I know! I am terrified I have slipped or destroyed the band. They told me not to puke and the dr did give me some suppositories....but had the runs so bad couln't even plug that hole for more than 10min :faint: :phanvan . So I am only on liquids of coarse today and everything seems okay...Just very worried:guess . Has anyone else ever had this happen?
