That's great!

Wow! Too bad he couldn't just add in the boobs for ya.

I'm starting to save up now!

You're gonna rock it!

I gained 5 effin pounds! WTF!

I did have a little TOM and did not do too well in the food dept.

Way to go Theresa.

My pants are still getting bigger, but damn.

Good luck! I'm hoping for a fantastic recovery!

That's great! I'd so be interested to hear cost. No boobs?? lol

How exciting for you! I can't wait until it's my turn.

I would totally go if funds and timing allowed.

I can see how it would be an issue for both sides.

Nothing out of the ordinary. That was a great loss on liquids! Stick to just eating 1/3 of what you "would" have eaten pre-band. 2-3 lbs a week is an awesome loss. That's what I'm sticking to--or trying to that is. I need to amp up the exercising. Great job!

Do you feel awful physically or mentally? Did it hurt? Or did you just feel guilty?

It's a mind game right now for sure. Just don't do it again. Drink as much broth as you want. Really go for the drinkable yogurts. Stay out of the kitchen. I bet your husband won't be happy about that either, but it's not worth the risk.

For me getting sick is the best for weight loss! :lol

Great job!

Scale says 253.2 today!

I didn't write down what I was last week--just that I lost 3. So I'm gonna guess that I was 256. That's what I'm gonna go with. Yahoo!

Drat! I missed it--was signed up and all. Just could not get my chores done at home in time. Will these be available on recording?

My research and recent discussions have me leaning towards getting on.

Yeah I weigh once a week and sometimes forget. No daily here.

Yay for losses!

Plateu's are the worst. I'm starting to journal and I think it's helping.

Also the exercise. I really need to get on board with it.

I also agree about not eating enough.

Awesome! Congrat!

I'm so gonna take a picture of the scale too!

Great news! You guys are just ahead of me. I'm looking at planning my fill--just not sure where I will be able to do. Great job!

So no weigh-in for 2 weeks and I got a loss today of 3lbs. I'll take it!

Here's to more losers!

Great job! I can't wait until I get there!

How much was it? Did you go to a spa? I'm glad it went well! I may need to get one of those!

I agree--just do your best. I was down 16 during liquid phase. I've been on and off track and didn't even weigh last week. I will on Wed and see what's happening.

14 hours! Damn! I also had a painful episode with dry chicken, but no where near that long! Mine passed quickly just by getting up, stretching, and walking it off. I did totally stop eating after that though. I've also become kind of lax on the speed in which I eat. I still chew almost to a liquid state and then swallow. Sometimes I think I do have restriction, sometimes no way. I'm just limiting myself to eating at least half of what I would have eaten before band. I kind of start at 1/3 and see how I'm feeling after that.

I was off the boards too. I don't think we should be ashamed at all. Just a little speed bump. Now to get back on the highway!

I'm thinking the end of March, but nothing is set yet. I need to get looking at tickets and see how to get it done.

My jeans are still getting baggier--so I'm not being so hard on myself. lol I just need to get off my butt and get moving. I did fairly well this weekend. I've found yerba mate tea and energy shots and boy! Oh Boy! It's amazing stuff! Here's to a better week!

I suck.

I'm still eating way less than I would have pre band.

I do give myself a little credit. lol

I guess it's time for a fill? Hoping that I don't/didn't stretch the band.
