Mary -Socagal:

I loved the " Vegas Show Girls Pic"! -lol

What did you mean by your were noticed by the Jubilee mean?

I have a Photobucket account of my own but I could not see your pictures Socagal since your put yours as private. I was able to see Barb465's pictures now that is strange, unless she put her photo's so that all can see.

The password is Junebies-try that.

The Jubilee comment was a JOKE Leece! It was in reference to the showgirl photo. Jubilee is a showgirl show at Bally's where we stayed.

Your pics are great Mary. Thanks for posting. I still love the show girl one. We are famous! The link worked fine for me. Don't know if its because I have an account or not. I liked your captions. I need to go back and do that to mine so others can know who is who.

I go for fill tomorrow at 12:45. Having pork chops for my last supper. I don't think I'll be able to eat much once they fill me up. I just hope I can keep it and not have to have it taken out.

I'm starting to think I may have had more Protein Drinks than I realized. I don't remember posing for some of those pictures..........I sure look like I had a good time!

[barbara465 2]

Barbara you know the docs say we should have 60g each day, but 200g can only be better! :confused:

I'm still laughing over the pics. Thanks Mary and Barb for posting. I don't remember posing for some of those (especially the parrot hat pic). Must have been the Protein drinks.< /p>

DH wasn't too impressed with the pic of my "arrest". Ooops!

He did take the glamour pic to work.

Thanks guys for a wonderful time. I'll never forget it.

Good luck Barbara4 and Melissa on the fills.

My luck held out on the trip home. Sat across from Bill Biezza (newscaster in Houston). Man is he cute in person. Helped me with my carryon!

:clap2:well my dear junebies, I lost 60lbs, so far, It has been a year now... I was a 40 inch waist pants and tight, now I just bought a 34 waist jeans, i am healthy, i live free, and I love it, these we're the kind of expresions that inspired me last year after a year of a diet, and work out, spinning mostly, gym and yoga recently, I've been doing great! I'll send some pics!

[Melissa Lea 1]

pinchemayko --congrats on the weight loss. You look great!! I hope to see more pics posted soon.

Barbara4 --have you had your fill yet?? let us know how that goes.

Miguel you are doing great. What a difference 60 lbs makes. I had my fill a few hours ago. Got the chills as usual about an hour afterwards. No other side effects so far. Had some Soup and still hungry. Hope this one gives me some restriction without major PBs.

He wanted to know why I stopped losing. I had only lost 1/4 lb from my last fill. Although disappointed, I was so glad it wasn't a gain. Especially after all the Protein drinks I had in Vegas. It definitely could have gone the other way. He wants me not to eat soup or liquids at all. He thinks I'm eating easy foods and that's why I'm not losing. I'm not losing because I've had ice cream and Cookies and queso and chips! I'm going to try and do better.

Hope yours goes well Melissa. You can enjoy the 4th and then get down to it. Let us know.

Hope everyone else is doing well. It's time for me to renew my efforts and get busy getting this weight off. DH and I are going on a cruise for Christmas. I would like our pictures to show a slimmer me!!!

[Melissa Lea 1]

Barb4 --glad to hear that your fill is progressing as it normally does. That's a good sign. I hope that you get some restriction from this fill. I can not wait for my fill. I'm so ready for it. I've seriously cut back on my own since returning from Vegas. Taking Pinky's advice ....counting calories (which I so never wanted to do again). And no more starbucks in the morning....I got into that bad habit when I was moving. So far so good this week. I haven't even missed it. But I will admit my ice tea habit has picked up a bit, ever so slightly (1 to 2 more glasses each day). Not ready to work on removing caffeine from diet. That's too darn stressful for me.

Hope everyone is having a great week.

Hi all,

I was banded last saturday and so far i've lost eight pounds, I'm finding it hard to eat much. I get hungry and then i eat but can only fit three or four spoon fulls in or a small petit falou. Reckon may calorie intake is about 500 calories per day. Does this kind of retriction pass?

[Melissa Lea 1]

skinnyirishbabe ---congrats on being banded last week. Yes, the post-op restriction will fade. There will come a time you most likely wish that you could have this restriction again just to get you over the "humps" you face from time to time on your journey.

Best wishes!

Melissa
