Were is all my Chattanoogians at?

That's my problem. The bike hurts my butt (I bought one a while back. It is now a clothes hanger.:smile2:) I could never afford a treadmill. The places to walk near my house have too many dogs. I would love to do Water aerobics or even swimming everyday, but alas, no pool. My neighbor has a pool, do you think they would let me swim? ha ha. I doubt it. They moved in about a month ago, and I still haven't met them or seen for sure who all lives there. I did see that they had a new liner put into the pool. It looks so inviting with the ball floating on top of the water. Ok, envy over. I am sure that the cost of upkeep on that thing is not pretty.

I will find some exercise that I like to do.

I hope that you all have a wonderful holiday weekend!

rowed again today. found music is better for my concentration than tv. made a playlist and everything.

i can relate to the pool envy :thumbup:. i can see my neighbors pool from my bedroom window. i dont know them either. I often think they dont use that thing enough. i bet it was expensive too.

i hope you all have a good weekend too.

Not yet, but hopefully soon. Well, I guess they do feel some better because they aren't aching just sitting here. Now it only hurts when I eat. I have to admit that my cheek is raw though. They put a new appliance on the back teeth to turn them, but the piece that they put in is rubbing my cheek raw. I finally broke down and put the wax around those teeth. That made it feel much better. Everyday I question my decision to get these things put in.

i am glad something is helping. you seem to be losing weight; how are other things going.

My weight is finally moving again. It is moving slowly, but it is moving. I am excited about that. I finally got below 180 last week. Of course, after the awful way that I ate yesterday, I am back to 181 this morning. Such is the story of my life. ha ha.

How is everyone doing? Has anyone heard from Carrie in a while? I don't think I have seen any posts from her recently.

I am here. I started nursing school last week so I have been really busy. My weight loss has stalled. I really need some motivation.

Hi Carrie, Where are you in school? I finished in Aug. 2007. It is a rough ride, but worth it. I got my first lap band just after finishing my first summer. I went to a summers only program where we went four months each summer for three years. It was like taking a shower with a fire hose, lol! Hang it there and if I can help, give support, pointers, advice, let me know.

Hopefully with school starting, your weight loss will kick back in. I was just concerned after not hearing from you for a little while.

Thanks, I didn't know you were a nurse. I am going to Cleveland State. I hope to finish in 2011. We start clinicals October 2. I am really nervous about that. I have been a medical assistant for years, but this is a whole different ball game. Where do you work?

Thanks. I am hoping my weight loss will start back up again. I seem to starve when I am at school. I could probably use another fill, but I really can't afford it right now.

Glad you are doing well, Carrie. I was starting to get worried about all of you. I seemed to be the only one posting for a few days. I also went to nursing school (BSN). I hope you have a good experience. :thumbup:

My weight loss has stalled also but I am hoping that it will pick back up after my next fill on thursday.

Wow, so many nurse! I used to want to be a nurse. Then I realized just how much of a wimp I was/am...

I hope everyone has a great day!

Does anyone here have a myspace?

I don't. I can't access it from work anyway. At least for now, I can still get on here.
