More like a thirty pound poop, once in three weeks? I don't see how that is possible! It sounds to me like she is full of it! Well I guess if she has only had one poop in three weeks SHE is full of it!

Man I thought I had it bad, where in the heck do you live?

Well I was banded on Aug.3, 2010 They did put a tiny amount in at surgery, but I sure did not feel it! I have since had two tiny fills, I certainly don't think I am at my sweet spot. I go in 4 days to get my third, and am really looking forward to it. I pray he gives me enough to last a while because I was self pay.....and with that I only get three fills for free, after that they will charge me! BOOOOO But all in all I still Love,Love,Love:wub::thumbup::wub: My band:biggrin:.

lolololololololololo

:lol:Well Girls, I tell you I just am sitting here cracking up:lol:! Congradulations! 1000 pages:thumbup:! Just shows ya where there is a will there could be a lot of junk! LOL I hope in another 1000 I know you all as well as you know each other! Way to make my morning! Back to the real stuff, i am going to try to walk twice again today. I walked a total of 70 minutes yesterday, and I got a diploma from about.com for having completed my 10 week walking program! I feel kinda proud....also nsv I started out in xxl sweats and now am in xl stretch pants, the next pair will be large, and that will be pretty soon, because the ones I wear are loosening up after two wears! YEAH:thumbup:! It is looking a little overcast here so we might just get that rain forecasted for the weekend. That is all for now... some pics of my walk yesterday:

Janet....I knew it was bicker ...Your speech was wonderful...just the thing before T-day....You know I seem to be handleing everything o.k.,, but I know I could stumble at anytime , so I just go out and do the best I can every day. Am I at work?..."no" lets go walk at 9:00 a.m.,,, am I at work?..."no" lets go walk again at 3:00 p.m. It is all gonna pay off in the future. Just like you told me to bank my exercise calories,,I think the same could apply to life! Love you, ~Kelly~ P.S. I used to live in Palm Desert, but that is another story;)

Love your Henry Ford quote!

MSDV so glad to hear from you, please put a sticky on this. I know I live in a most extraordinary place. Not great for man hunting, but the dogs love it! Plus there are plenty of two legged dogs in these parts, most of whom I know.....lolololo:wink:

Apples, that is the first time I saw you pre-band! WOW! Kinda reminds me of me! I think of all the people here, you my friend are my best inspiration! You are really a beautiful person, and now you reflect on the outside what you are on the inside! Is not that what we are really trying to do? Love, Love ~Kelly~

Jacqui, I agree! You are an inspiration! But on the other hand, being unfilled for me would terrify me too, because for the first time in my life I have a little control. I am not at my sweet spot yet, but because I'm newly banded (little over 3 months) I can still freshly remember the ravenous person I was before. Maybe for you, your mind set is so strong and good that you will have the tools in your mind to do this. Please let us know how you do!:blushing:

I am sooooo thankful for my band, that if I did not have it I'm sure I would be tipping the scales at 300 pounds, and be embarrassed to even go to the grocery store. I am thankful for the wonderful support of my mom and my friends! I am thankful for the scholarship I got to become a cna(certified nurses assistant) I start in January. And last but not least I am thankful for my little weiny dog who faithfully goes walking with me for 30 minutes once or twice a day!:blushing:

For breakfast I had a sandwhich round with cheese tomato lettuce and 45 cal cotto lunchmeat. For a snack I had celery sticks and three dill spears, dipped in habanero mustard! Tonight I will have salad and chicken using lipton onion mix and some soup (new recipe). If I have another snack, maybe some sunflower seeds :w00t::blushing:

You are only 20, you have plenty of time to meet someone special. That may not even know you were heavy, and if she does (if you tell her) she should be the kind of person that would be thrilled for your success!

I am 5'8", at surgery I weighed 262, I now weight 224 I would like to weigh 140, but anywhere in between 140 and say 160 would be fine! I think really I just want to have a normal bmi!:blushing:

I love the xanax and cocktails, what better way to deal with family!

Well, good morning everyone, and I mean everyone! Gosh you all seem like you are very busy right now. My life right now seems pretty calm compared to most of you!:w00t: I seem to be on a bit of a platue right now, but that has kinda been my pattern! Loose two, lose one, then hold for a while etc.:blushing: Don't have big plans for T-day just a couple of family members over. I am going to do the cooking with Mom supervising:biggrin:! I haven't done the cooking in a few years so it will be fun! I don't think I will put any pressure on me about the food, as I go for my third fill on Tues., and as long as I keep journaling, and walking it shouln't be a problem:thumbup:! Apples wish I was going to the thrift store with you, it is one of my great loves, pick something out really pretty:thumbup:! The weather here is still wonderful, chilly in the mornings and 70 in the afternoons. We are supposed to get some rain this weekend (which is good) snow in the high country we need as we are a huge farming and ranching community! Well going to go check out some recipes for dinner tonight! More pictures of "Sophie"

Could you please send me some, I'm not at my sweet spot, and at this very moment I could go into that room (shhhhhhh the kitchen) and really eat something bad for me........so hell I am going to go to the bar:)maybe you could send them to me there!

It is for a scholarship to start a cna(certified nurses assis.) program, I think because you will be in health care facilities? And maybe around older people?

Well, good morning everyone! I really don't have any complaints. I do however, have to go to town today (yuk) I have several errands to run. The one I don't want to do is go to "Big Brands" tire place to get nitro in the tires and have them look at a buldge on one of the front tires:cursing:. Then I'm off to the dr. to show them I don't have t.b.. Then over to the adult school to turn in my physical papers so I can get my books, and finally to the grocery store:rolleyes:. Gonna try to walk two times today, I only walked once each of the last two days:eek:. I know weather will be permitting because the next few days it will be around 70 degrees.:laugh: Well all for now!:thumbup:

I wolf mine down in about that time too, or less!

Well all I tried like a "son-of -a-gun" to eat two tacos but gave up half way through my second.....gave the rest to my mom. Just wanted to see if head hunger was a thing and I can definitely say it's not the thing....as soon as I got full, I was done. P.S. IndioGirl I was listening very careful to my tummy! I hope these pics turn out, this is my walking demon....when we walk together the leash just floats in my hand:biggrin:!

Thank you Ocotillo! ;}

i love that hohoho part! ;}

Well all I decided not to do my second walk today, I am pretty sore. So gonna give these muscles the afternoon off! I'll be back at it tomorrow:wink:! Tonight is taco night:biggrin: I used to eat 3 or 4 before, but now I am down to 1 and a half:rolleyes2:. I'll be glad when I'm down to 1. The weather here is absolutely beautiful in the high 60's and not a cloud in the sky, and I can see all the mountians sooo clearly. Oh almost forgot I had a nsv today as I was sitting on the couch I crossed my legs (wow) that is the first time I have been able to do that in a while:thumbup:. I guess that is all for today, hope everyone has a warm comfey evening. ~Kelly~ P.S. Is there a way to upload a picture to this or do I have to put it on my signature?

must be sweeeeeeet! To fill up on that, how many fills have you had, or amount in your band?(I know everyone is different, but still curious)
