neveragain 9 Posted January 3, 2009 I'll say that I don't drink a whole lot, but New Year's Eve in Vegas was a little different. haha. Whatever, though. The props of being young and in college. haha. Oh, and confession time...I have NO clue why, but right now I am INCREDIBLY horny and the thought of having to wait like 9 hours to see my girlfriend is very depressing... I can only hope this will subside in the interim... :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Donna113 2 Posted January 6, 2009 I confess I had AT LEAST 1 drink a day every day and at least one handful of chocolate every day from XMas Eve through NYE. Needless to say, I was in a pretty good mood every day through the holidays. I was very pleasantly surprised to see that I didn't gain any weight; didn't lose either, but hey, over the holidays, no gain = success. :wub: P.S. - I stopped smoking. I had started back up right before Thanksgiving so my holidays were pretty much smoking, drinking and gorging myself on chocolate. It was good! he he Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smsmithart 4 Posted January 6, 2009 I've been having to many cocktails in the evening and the scale is showing it... Actually I think the drinks trigger my eating either way its bad..I'm getting filled tomorrow hope this puts me back on track. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Makulafamy 55 Posted February 9, 2009 Susan, now there's a confession I can work with! :thumbup: Looks great! When people ask how I've lost the weight, I tell them Portion Control. It IS controlled! Now for something non band related: Whenever I cook something I pretend I'm on a cooking show and when no one's home, I talk like I'm freaking Paula Deen or something. LOL I imagine having a band friendly show on food Network. That'd be nice. Does that make me crazy? Oh my God, I know you posted this a long time ago but I do the same thing! I always have. My favorite "meal" to make on my show is PB & J. That was preband though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LizzieBorden 3 Posted February 10, 2009 Well, I've been banded about 14 months and managed to lose about 95lbs. A couple of weeks ago I started to have bad reflux, etc and had to get a complete unfill on 2/4. When I left the office my doc said "don't go eating everything in sight." I haven't been eating EVERYTHING in sight but sure have been eating every single thing I couldn't eat for the past 14 months. The first night after the unfill I had spaghetti, then over the past couple of days I've had a sub sandwich, chicken mini's, and a host of my other favorites. Next on the list is pizza. Luckily I can't eat the amounts I was able to preband. I haven't gained any YET and thankfully I will be getting a fill on 2/18. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LizzieBorden 3 Posted February 10, 2009 Donna, as of this moment they're alive and well but I'm not promising anything prior to my fill! They might be good in the crock pot with some veggies..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
