  1. Thanks for the recipe. I bought some that are frozen and they are ok, but yours sound sooooo much better.
  2. On the 24th. I will fly in on the 23rd and back out on the 25th. I couldn't get the flights to work out other wise.

  3. sorry....continue to do so. Keep an eye on your portions and drink plenty of water.

    Good luck!

  4. I can not wait to see less of your mom, that is going to be sooooo cool. I am doing great and ready for my first fill. I think the hardest part for me is not drinking or remembering when I drank last. At this point it is definitely more of a head game, at least for me. I am determined to do this, even if it kills me. You are going to do great. You have a great support team behind you!

  5. Yes, I am going back to OCC for my fills, if at all possible. I figure if I can go there a few times over going to the doctor in states a lot, it should be cheaper in the long run. That's the plan anyways! I am doing great! I lost 3.6lbs on my first week of solids and trilled. I am really watching what I eat and stopping when I start to feel full. You are doing great and will ...

  6. Did you get your fill at OCC or somewhere else?

  7. Thank you, that makes perfectly good sense. Ok, so at least now I know I have no restriction and really need to pay attention to want goes in my mouth. Just scheduled my first fill at OCC. Can't wait. Thank you!!!
  8. Sorry your sick....bummer! Feel better soon!
  9. I too, do coffee. This whole thing would have been much harder for me without it. I started using the "half caff" and have cut back quite a bit. I would not have made it through the liquid phase without it. Just watch the creamers, they can add up. I never realized how much creamer I was using until I started paying attention. I use the sugar-free FF, not sure if it's better than using the fat-free, need to check that.
  10. I am soooooo excited! I lost 3.6lbs on my first week back on solids. Whoop, Whoop! .2oz away from hitting the 30 mark. I am trilled. Great job everyone...your all such losers! hehehehe
  11. Congrats, on your date. I just scheduled my first fill on the 24th. Hopefully we will get a chance to meet. Where are you staying? I am staying at the Marriott, arriving on the 23rd and heading back out on the 25th.

  12. Hey lady lou, looks like we are going to get a chance to meet. I have scheduled my fill for the 24th, will be there on the 23rd. Can't wait to meet you and to see your mom again.

  13. It looks like we are going to get to hook up again. As of now, my fill is scheduled for the 24th. Peggy Jo and I will be arriving on the 23rd and flying back out on the 25th. Flights are not lining up conveniently. Now I just have to get everything booked. See you soon! Whoop, Whoop!

  14. Usually, if your ready they are too. Just pick a date and go for it! They could have done mine in two weeks....yikes! I scheduled about a month out....needed time to get all my moneys together.
  15. Every time I come by here to check on you, your weight is down...AWESOME! You are doing sooooo good! How is your dad doing? You may be our next "RevyD".

  16. Hey girlfriend, how are thing going with the chewing?

  17. Not sure? I am on day 3 of solid foods and wondering how do you know if you have restriction. I get full very fast. Is that restriction or just a shrunken stomach. (that sounds like one of those native things...."a shrunken stomach".) Sorry, got side tracked. I am really trying to pay attention to my body and stop when I feel like I'm getting full. I have not had any problem with things going down, thank goodness. Still continuing to lose. No biggie - just wondering! Loving my Band!
  18. Ok, you guys are right. Tomato Pie will make you smack your granny. It looks and smells good too. The only thing I will do different next time is dice my onions up and saute them first. I'm some what of a texture freak and would like them to be softer. Other than that, it really is delicious! I'll be honest...when I heard of it, I was not so sure but I'll try anything once. Yum yum!! Sliced into 8 slices-one a day.
  19. Hey girl, my first meal went just fine. Grilled chicken and baked potato - was nervous eating in front of everyone, but I did fine! Not sure about restriction, I sure do I get full fast, but I think that may be that my stomach has shrunk. The hardest part is not drinking...or remembering!

  20. Hey girl, our dinner party went great! I didn't have any issues eating. I settled on grilled chicken and a baked potato. The hardest thing was not reaching for something to drink. Thank you for all your advise and support. Wouldn't want to do it without you!

  21. Baaaahaaaahaaa.....I love it. With my boys being 14 and 12 soon, sometimes I actually miss those days. No matter what it is, a truck can always be handy-Boys and their Toys!
  22. Hi and Welcome to the gang! The 3 options from OCC are - 1) a month before: the beginning phase of Atkins 2) two weeks before: 2 protein shakes and a lean cuisine (300 cal.) 3) 1 week before: 3 protein shakes There are a few other small things you can do with 2 & 3, but that's the jest of it. Not sure if it really matters what you do to lose the weight, but this is the info OCC sends out. You will be on liquids for 21 day post-op, so shrinking your stomach is part of it....in my opinion. Hope this helps!
  23. Hey Jill, I just made one too! Getting ready to dig into it! It looks and smells wonderful! I'll let you know, how I like it.
  24. Trav, that is soooo stinking funny!! Baaaahaaahaa~ I never dreamed that made the guys wear them too!
  25. How are you "chewing"?
