I know what you mean...btw the lemon ones are 170 for 3 of them (I am ashamed that I know that...LOL). I have decided that when the band kicks in I am going to stay on WW and switch to the "Core" plan and use the "filling foods" list. I LOVE WW so much...I am like a WW junkie!

Chili beans come in a can and are called "chili beans." You will find them in the canned goods aisle of you local grocery next to the kidney beans, pinto beans & black beans.

BTW...I am an on-line only member (no meetings) at a cost of only 12.95/mo! The membership also include FREE mobile access so you can track on your phone through your data plan and if you have an i-Phone you get a free WW app to download.

You and I are on the same wave length. Started WW during pre-op phase so I could continue afterwards as well. I also needed to get a "plan" in motion & realized that when I found out that it could take awile before I reached ideal restriction. I even tracked points during liquid phase. I LOVE WW! I couldnt have lost 17 pounds w/o it!

Sorry you are feeling the blues today. You need some Ella Fitgerald, old movies, and some martinis and call it a night...oh, almost forgot, do not forget the snuggie! If you are not up to the old movies might I suggest the book "Are you there Vodka? It's me, Chelsea" by Chelsea Handler.

I really enjoy your youtube videos and I think you are really doing great.

Don't hate people ... trust me, the thunder thighs & massive cellulite more then make up for it ... those pics coming soon (after I have had enough liquid courage to post them).

Thanks - back atcha hot stuff! Now, if only I can keep that Christina Aguilara song playing in my head long enough to believe it then the world can't keep me down today ... even though I am 40% grey and need a dye job every 5 weeks (LOL)

Will it make you feel better to tell you that I am blind as a bat and that long lashes are a great indicator of the other parts of the body that require heavy waxing?

Yep, teenage son. Thanks for saying I look like a teen Honestly I never get carded anymore

Congrats on your 50 pound milestone! I wish I had one of those "I lost 50 Pounds!" magnets they give you at a WW meeting! You of everyone deserves it. I really admire your patience and perserverance. Here's to you babe!

According to thedailyplate.com you burned approximately 3000 calories today! LOL! Not sure if it was that much bun even if it was only half of that I do not think you need to worry about what you eat today.

Not much difference if any. I can't tell yet. I got another 0.6cc for a total of 6.6cc and I feel as though I will be going back next month for another fill. I think I needed 0.75cc for a total of 6.75. 7cc was definately going to be too much. He tried it but that barium was not moving at all.

The flavor I recommend is Jamaica and they actually sell the BeLight waters at other pharmacies too and the 1.5L is only 1.50!! You can get a 12 pack from the Mexican Costco for $7.50ish but it is the 20 ounce bottles - I bought the 12 pk today and hulled it on the train back to LA. Basically do not bring water - just buy it there and save the hastle. But definately bring the cart ...

Fill went okay. Got another 0.6cc for a total of 6.6cc. Not sure if that is enough. I think I actually needed 0.75cc but we shall see. If you plan on doing some shopping bring one of those carts with wheels that you see at the swap meet so you can laod up on goodies while you are there. I highly recommend the BeLight 1.5L water bottles they sell at the Pharmacy across the main blvd from the OCC.

Thanks, glad to hear someone is actually reading my posts Second fill gave me a little more restriction (about 50% more than the first) but not nearly where I need to be. Going back for my third fill on Monday. I have 6CC so far and I think I am going to need at least a total of 7cc. Debbie should come with a bi-line reading "results not typical." Not loosing much either - WW has hel...

Okay Dan, you know how to get a boozy floozy's attention! What is this about infusing vodka with pinapple for 10 days? Details, details, details please.

90% of the time that is. I have had 2 fills for a total of 6cc and I still do not have hardly any restiction.

I hope someone answers your question about the smaller and larger band. I have the giagantor band (Realize 11cc) and my understanding is that the larger bands need more adjustments then the smaller ones b/c they hold more salin. 11cc vrs 4cc. I tried asking Dr. Ortiz for the smaller one but he told me he no longer used it. I HATE the larger band and honestly I feel like I do not even have a band.

I like it big!! The more glitter the better! Looks like you got it figured out Welcome!

Glad you like it. Thank God for Tyler Perry and Mary J for providing me with needed moments of clarity that are just as effective as a slap up-side the head. Had a weekend full of bad flashbacks and realized the las t 5 years were worse then I thought they were.

Debbie, congratulations on your hike up the mountain. You never cease to amaze me.

How did your first fill go yesterday? How many cc's did you get? How are you feeling?

Happy belated B-Day fellow Capricorn
