Have a great time....... but dont drink the water!!! [bottled only] [will does the three-fingers-down-the-throat gesture at the "hot doctor" comment.] You'd think they could up the air conditioner if they are all THAT hot.... sheesh.

No Dawnie... you don't have to wear any college football shirt ; )

Well, If we are planning an outing for September, Labor Day weekend is out. Chattanooga seems to be the location that might best centralize travel for some of us. I have some connections there, would anyone be interested in a day together (Dawnie suggested somewhere outdoors, like a park) and an evening cruise on the Riverboat? If my friend still works there, we might can get a decent discount. Make some suggestions everyone.... Chattanooga? Which weekend? If we plan it now, we can all hold that weekend sacred. (I'd suggest a weekend when ETSU plays away).

Ok... second fill June 22: total weight lost at clinic: 35.5 pounds second fill: 1.4 cc (total of 6.4 cc in a 10 cc band) weight loss after 2 days: 1.5 additional pounds I feel tremendous restriction today, two days after the second fill. Where I used to eat three Carnitas (three flour tortillas stuffed with succulent soft roasted pork), I barely was able to finish one with a little arroz on the side. I feel hugely bloated just after the one. WOW..... this is fabulous... it's a few hours after the meal right now, and I couldnt eat another one if you paid me.

my goodness rob.... i dont think that is what we expected.... LOL

Ewwwww..... how much sugar did it take to make it taste better after THAT?????

I think bandster hell is reading all these posts from babes and listening to them talk about wearing bikinis and not seeing pictures of them. Yep, that's definitely it.

Bill sits and lets the SEC crowd fight it out..... Gators, War Eagles (or Tigers...they cant make up their minds) and Volunteers.... all we need now is a Gamecock, a Commodore and an Elephant... and those guys will be swinging away in less than a half hour...

pregnant, in a bikini?? wow.... oh. i went back and read the post again. WHEW.

Sure can, if you get a BIG straw!!! One big enough for the beans to pass through, unless you cut them into thirds with a smaller straw.

Greetings everyone. Several of us met and had a grand party in Roswell today, Sunday. While we were there, Ute, Dawnie and I had fills, and Tammy showed us the town. Woooo hoooo!!... Missed you all!!! After several of us finished our fill, we all wanted to get a large, grand fancy lunch. Mine was great. But, what happens in Roswell STAYS in Roswell, and when you read all of our grins to each other, you'll just have to wonder what we did that we CANT post here...... hehehe....

Paula, on the note could be THIS suggestion: "If you dont want to wear my clothes, may I suggest a place to stick them??"

Julie, the beans serve as a major source of protein, and we need all we can get since we've been banded. As far as expelling gas, the lapband itself has increased attic and basement gas in many people (burping and the other). It won't matter to most that the beans cause a little bit more. To me, it was worth the taste. To all of you who mentioned using a blender.... ewwwww. Just chew it. There isnt a significant denisty in the chili, meaning a spoonful is more than 40% liquid to begin with. By chewing, you mix the liquid with saturated solids and get the SAME result from chewing that your blender provides. Go for it. Go slowly, chew well. Vent attic and basement gas ALL you need to..... it means you are LOSING WEIGHT.

first... you gotta show UP.... then, they'll tell us

wow... thinking of Michelle and her playboy comment when she reaches her goal.... DOUBLE wow.... thinking of val, who NEVER speaks to me much any more... doing a pole dance.... and think... guys dont stand around talking about their sizes.

willT grumbles..... something about a "cork".

[willT bows, then tips his hat...'my pleasure ma'am] I do splurge there... those frosties arent great for a diet, but there do taste awesome...

OMG.... Here comes the Aunt Flo discussion again... For a while, i thought she was referring to riding a stationary bike once a month.... Sheeesh.... [willT covers his eyes with bonth hands and yells "It hasn't affected mine.... TMI!!!"]

i had Wendy's chili. I chewed, and the consistency was that of a creamy soup. I had no problems whatsoever.
