She Smiles

Yeah pizza is husband's fav, so it makes sense to go out for it on thanksgiving. All my Ausssie friends are like "thanks..what??" haha

Wow Plain, I really missed to boat not snapping you up before your wife, you sound like my perfect man!! Got a brother I can dump my husband for? I need some help with my obsession to gossip magazines. I seriously spend way too much money on them, but I need to know what is going on Britney and Paris' lives. (and the scary thing is I know they're not real stories!).

Haha yes, off the island. We don't know everything about your relationship, of course, but if my husband ever said that shit to me, he'd be out on the street with just the clothes on his back. No one deserves to be emotionally bullied like that, especially by some one who is supposed to care for you..... just my 2 cents....Oh make that 3 cents, you DO look great, for the record.

We don't have turkey day here, but being married to an american means we have to do SOMETHING to celebrate, right? So we're going out for pizza haha SMS dump that guys ass, please

Glad to hear. Mine too actually

Uhh not that I can recall LOL :thumbup: Its the second toe on each foot, next to the big one. They are kind of spasming now! Its weeeeeird!!!

I don't find them uncomfortable at all now, it took a little while to get used to them after wearing only flats for so long. But its SO worth it for me to have that extra 3 inches of height elongating me *is very vain* haha

No! the photos are cool! I am posting to say I've been getting weird cramps in my TOES the past few days....odd right??

I'm totally with you on the reunion thing. My 10 year reunion was 3 days after my surgery. "Luckily" I was still too unwell after my surgery to go..... I was 28 when I was banded and had been slimmer in my early 20's via fanatical exercising and disordered eating, so I had known what it was like to be a normal size. I wanted to feel good about my appearance again! I disgusted myself a few months before surgery when on a flight from Sydney to LA in economy class the (thin) girl that was in the seat next to me grimaced as I told her "looks like this is where I am sitting". It was a painful 14 hour flight with my fat bursting out from under the chair arms..... Also, sex is better, walking (AND running! I can run!) is easier, I don't get rashes under my boobs and stomach from the sweat and most importantly I can wear heels instead of the most boring comfortable shoes I could fit my always bloated feet into LOL. I wear heels EVERY day to work now.

I have both, but log into myspace maybe once a month. I'm a facebook addict, on the other hand, as you may have noticed

How can it only be Tuesday. Boooo. Bring on Friday. Fanny did you notice you just ticked over 1000 posts???

Thanks everyone, the last 2 years has just FLOWN past! Good luck Beth, hope you enjoy your "mini break" hehe!!!

I just realised, tomorrow is my 2 year bandiversary! wow!

I'm so jealous. I'm stuck in an office in the CBD everyday. And yeah the heat was unbearable. On our days off in the desert (we camped out of 2 trucks for 30 days), we would follow the shadow around the truck with our fold out chairs for a teeny bit of respite from the sweltering heat. Hope everyone has a good weekend, I'm off to the coast to enjoy the (fingers crossed!) warm weather and waves!

Ahhhh Friday afternoon and evening, how I love thee... Fanny, your pics make me think about the trip I made up to Birdsville and back on a research trip after Uni. Its so beautiful up there too. So many Australians never get to see all the amazing things our country has to offer.

Cos its snnnnnnnnnnnoooow!! Wow! We don't get snow here.... :thumbup:

I'm wide awake. Its 9:26pm here in east Oz. Whatchoo doing up so late/early Plain....hmmmmm?

Geez, I didn't get to do anything but work at work today and I'm so behind! CONGRATS LJM!!!!

Those of you coming up to surgery, I know just how you feel...2 years ago I was in my pre op diet at this stage....you can do this! It is SO worth every moment of hunger, I promise you! The first week I could eat "normal" food again was when Xmas fell and it was the best Xmas ever.....it didn't revolve around just the food!

What a nice weekend! And yeah, *most* eggs and I are no longer friends for this exact reason...

Mine is from yahoo, but I'm going to give the one Donna posted a try too, her's is much clearer than mine Aww thanks! What a sassy young lady. I cannot wait to meet her!

Thanks! Its kiiiiiinda supposed to look like me. LJM might be able to attest to whether it does or not...whaddaya think LJM?? The only thing wrong with it I think is that there was no skin colour light enough. My skin is so pale its almost translucent. Wonderful to burn in the scorching Aussie summer sun...! (NOT!).

Thanks guys. I feel a bit better this afternoon, still a bit worn out, but at least I am keeping food/drink down.

*goes to update her resume*

Posting to say I woke up at 3am with the most painful stomach ache ever. Spent the next 3 hours switching between writhing in pain and vomiting (well as much vomiting as a banded person can do). Then all of a sudden just after 6am, it went away. I'm not at work today because I am SO tired from the who thing. Blah. Not sure if it was food poisoning (we did go out for dinner) or a stomach bug (which is going around at the moment). Looks like liquids for me for the rest of the day.
