OOH! A new forum!


I just got totally confused by the forum titles and categories reshuffling themselves between viewing one thread and coming back to the menu, but I like the new arrangement.

Hello to all you Fabulous Forties out there :D

I like the new look also. Was kind of weird when I logged on, but looking it over, I like it.

Wow Wndy, and banded family---very cool!
How are you all doing?

I am Kat---(no brainer!), married to Rick. 3 grown kids, 3 grandkids.
I was banded in April of '06.
Live in NW New Mexico.


How are you feeling following your LBL Alynne?

I am looking at a TT soon. I had to put off my planning, and have Thyroid surgery, but now that it is behind me, I am ready to start looking into it again. I hate this flabby skin junk hanging!!!!

There has to be more of us 40 something out here!!!

Hi all, I'm another 40 something. Banded Dec 3 going for my first fill tomorrow - currently I am starving and could eat a horse and it's jockey raw.

You all seem to have been banded for some time so hope to be able to pick your brains on how you have handled the change.

Danna

I'VE HAD 7 FILLS SO FAR , AND THE LAST ONE IN NOV. WAS A DOOZY. IT WAS REALLY OVERFILLED BUT IS FINALLY LOOSENING. I DIDN'T GET AN UNFILL BECAUSE I WAS AT A MAJOR PLATEAU. SINCE THE FILL I'VE LOST 10 MORE LBS AND LIKE I SAID IT LOOSER NOW. I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND AN OVER-FILL TO ANYONE THO'. I ATE VERY LITTLE AND HAD PB'S. I PROBABLY WON'T GET ANOTHER FILL UNTIL FEB. OR MARCH. I JUST HAVE TO SEE HOW THIS GOES.
OMG - I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN ABOUT FLABBY SKIN. I HAD A TOP ON THAT SHOWED A LITTLE CLEAVAGE. WHEN I BENT OVER TO DO SOMETHING , I LOOKED DOWN AND SAW MY GRANDMA'S 99 YEARS OLD
SAGGY CHEST ! IT WAS PRETTY GROSS. I JUST DON'T KNOW IF I HAVE THE GUTS TO HAVE A TUMMY TUCK OR BREAST LIFT. I'VE STILL GOT OVER 50 LBS . TO GO BEFORE CONSIDERING THAT THO '.
HAVE A GREAT DAY EVERYONE !

Hi Everyone :D

I'm Patricia, 42 years old and have been with my honey for just over 20 years....no wedding bells tho ;) We don't have kids but we have fur-babies !!! We breed and raise purebred Labrador Retrievers.... We live in snowy British Columbia, Canada...and altho I could do without shoveling snow, the dogs are loving it !!!!

I had my surgery in November/06 and have lost 102lbs but have been pretty much at a standstill for the last almost 2 months. Time for a fill !!!!!

Hope everyone is having a fabulous new year !!!!

Patricia
