Calling all April Bandsters!!!!

[Guest Leslie2Lose]

I seem to get tighter after day 2-3. I'm not sure what my scale is doing. I wish I had periods 1-3 days. I had a tubal in 2002 and don't take any birth control. Would the pill affect you in that way?

I had a tubal in 1996 and since had bad bleeding. Was put on monessu or something like that..... worked wonders!

[Guest Leslie2Lose]

Hmmmm....something to think about. I have that problem now. I'm hoping losing weight may help with it. We shall see though :-)

We should call ourselves the tubal sisters because I too had one after my last pregnancy. I have been the same being heavy so if something can help with that, I'm all for it!

I can no longer complain about my cravings though. They fixed themselves today...had about 1/2 cup of chili cheese fritos :omg_smile:) and then spent the rest of the day PBing and "tossing my cookies." I guess its liquids for me for a day or two! But it is nice to have the tightness back!!!

I also have pushed through another barrier by entering the 'teens'! Woo Hoo! I'll be in Onederland in no time!!!

Sorry...this post is all about me! I love you guys and hope everyone is okay!

Congratulations!!!!

I too was happily surprised last weekend when I got on the scales and found myself finally in TWOterville. Its great motivation to 'go go go faster' as my poor knees will attest.

Thanks Don!

It feels so good knowing that I reached this milestone. For me it was a big goal. I know I still have a ways to go, but it sounds so good to say it! LOL

Carol - that's awesome! 50 pounds....I bet you did the happy dance (I would have too). I can't wait to join you...it may take me a couple of weeks though. Congratulations girl - you deserve it!

[Turler 6]

Thanks Leslie!

What's with all the lurking? I look forward to reading your posts! How is the running going? How is the eating? Okay, seriously, how is the weighing only once a week?

LOL I could never do that. I must do it once a day!

I have actually been busy at work and haven't had time to type as much as I usually do. Darned job - LOL. I've been busy with the kids at night too with school starting - Darned family - LOL (love, love, love my girls - well, DH too).

It's nice though to actually feel good and do stuff...I'm not in bed, I'm not depressed. Just out living and being active. I've been trying to read and post when I can - when you miss a couple of days it takes a bit to get caught up.

I still weigh at home on my scales in the morning (of course naked and stomach empty - lovely sight it is). I record my weigh-in at the doctor's office once a week though. Their scales are the expensive ones that tell you body mass, fat% and all that jive.

[Turler 6]

OH!!! I think that's nice they weigh you once a week! WOW! I wish I had that option! I like my doctors scale better than mine too. Theirs only tells you BMI, but it always weighs me less than my home scale.

Yes, I know what you mean about living! I'm usually the lurker and don't post that much. It takes me forever to get caught up on all the threads. By the time I read it and have something to say, they've already moved on! LOL

I'm only posting today because I'm off and I lost 50 pounds! Oops, I already told everybody that didn't I? LOL (Can you tell I'm happy about it? LOL)

Woo Hoo!! Congrats Turler!! 50 lbs is awesome!! My bandiversary is next Tuesday, don't think I can pull off 10 pounds by then, but I'm right behind ya!! That's so awesome!! I know you feel great! Keep it up!

Way to go Carol!!! You should be shouting from the mountain tops so don't apologize for it. You go girl!

[Turler 6]

Aw shucks...thanks you guys!

I can't believe how much power the numbers have over me (and so many of us). I am consumed by the numbers right now. The number I am, the number I was, the number I've lost, the number of pounds I stil want to lose, the next mini goal number, the size of my shirts and jeans, the number inside my shoe...will that change too? Good grief. And I hate math!

But with all that said...I'm still happy and it really is a milestone for me and I must keep on keeping on as they say! I have a very long way to go yet, so I'm sure I'll be back in no time complaining and griping about not losing enough! LOL
