May 2007 Banders

After surgery the soreness was a reminder of why I was on liquids, but I do not feel any different than I did yesterday so I am afraid that I will forget and take a bite of something.....liquids argggghh!

All worth it in the end!

Hey Metalband,

I know what you mean about liquids. and feeling like you could eat even though you had a fill. My Doctor recommends 2 days of liquid after a fill wow 4 days seems long but everyone has a different philosphy. I like to sleep in the next day when I have a fill it seems like the day is not as long that way. Maybe Saturday you could get some extra sleep the AM. Pamper yourself. Anyways good luck to you.

Mini- Thanks for the article that was interesting.

Twin Mom - Way to go on ebaying your clothes!!! I am going to give mine to my friend although we have different clothing styles so i dont know how much she will actually wear. I cant wait to get rid of them but am nervous about what kinds of clothes to buy for now. Many of my pants are getting too loose and while a belt will hold them up I will look very frumpy. I guess frumpy is better than fat any day though!

Metal- congratts on the fill! Yes they are a lttle strange. I always think pulp fiction when I see the needle coming!

I am a little jealous of all of you hitting 50 lbs! I dont think I would spend that much on a Coach purse if I won the lotto. I am planning a trip to NY where I am hoping to find something good on Canal St though My scale did move another lb today so I really cant complain. People are really starting to notice!

Wow I am jealous of the people who have hit 50lbs but I am more jealous of the trip to Canal Street!!! I love that place. I would never spend the money on a real Coach either but I have a closet full of fakes! LOL

I found out that have a 10cc band....when my doc told me I had the small one, I assumed 4cc???? I got 1cc in my band.....doesn't seem like much to me???

Off to drink my breakfast....

Good morning ladies...

Well.. I got a job... not THE job (didnt hear anything back yet)... but I did get a long term temp job processing passports... pay isnt that bad...hours are great (7-3:30... so I'll still be able to make my daughter's field hockey games).

I had my Protein Shake this morning... trying to be good... I havent weighed in a week due to TOM... hopefully I'll get the courage to weigh this weekend!

Congrats Melissa!!! I hope you like the new job. Sometimes its not always about the money....the quality of life, like being at your daughters games, is much more important. Way to go!

[Melissa S 1]

You're right. I was able to switch my schedule last year and make it to all of her home games..and one away game. I couldnt imagine missing her games this year. She makes me so proud!

[ragdollx19 1]

Melissa I know how you feel. Monday when school starts I get to start working 8-2:30 so I will be able to drop my kids off AND pick them up at school. I am stoked!

[Melissa S 1]

Thats awesome!

Melissa - congrats on the new job!

Metalband - You've done great on your weight loss with only 1cc in your band!

I seem to be off my plateau and on the move again but it doesn't last very long and then I sit for a few weeks. I guess that is just how I lose the weight.

I really do think that we should plan a reunion next May. If LasVegas is the most affordable then I hear there is lots to do besides gambling. I want to save all my money for new clothes! We might be able to get an awesome group rate on a cruise also. Is anyone in this group a travel agent?

[Macysgranny 1]

Everyone is doing so well! I was hoping for 50 lbs this morning but I lack .4 lbs...maybe tomorrow...

Metalband...

Are you sure it's a 10cc band?

I have a 10cm band that holds 4cc, and I think it's quite a commonly used band (Inamed Lapband)

Sue....I am not sure.....he said 10 cubic centimeters.....I am not good with metrics!

When I had the surgery he said he gave me the smaller one. When I asked yesterday he said the larger was 11.

You are probably right and I have lost something in the translation!

Jrsico- TOM is evil! You will be in onderland soon and will not ever go back!!

Wenjea-Thanks for the support, we are all doing so great!

Metalband....thanks!
