I just wanted to say a big Thank You to you guys for letting me in.
This past year was really difficult for me, physically and emotionally. However...it is a new year with new and wonderful things to look forward to. It is time to live my life and do it with a kickin' body! Screw all those 19 year olds out there thinking they're so hot...move over sister. You're on the train to fat town and I'm sweeping in to take your men!
Afterthought: Maybe the fact that I'm having my wisdom teeth removed next Friday isn't totally a bad thing. I'll be on a liquid diet for a couple of days... (yuck) but from my misery...may there come weight loss!

Ash and I are challenging eachother to a Biggest Loser style weight loss competition and we want you to see all the trash talk as it happens. Here's how to calculate: Week 1: 175 lbs Week 2: 170 lbs; percent: (175-170)/175 = 2.9% Week 3: 175 lbs; percent: (170-175)/175= -2.9% Week 4: 172 lbs; percent is NOT (175-172)/175 = 1.7%; the actual percent should be (X-172)/X = (170-172)/170 = -1.2%.

Welcome Linny!
Welcome, the more the merrier. Jennifer seems to think she needs some stiffer competition cause i'm going to the Mandarin this week for a Congrats dinner and i'm going to stuff myself silly :)
Oh Linny....you're so cute. Getting your wisdom teeth out does nothing to suppress eating. Mine were fully grown, like normal teeth, but I couldnt take as good care of them becuase they were so far back. I had to get them out. No swelling, no bruising, and I was eating chicken parm the very next day.....
However, that's just me....and i'm a medical miracle. So maybe that's not you then. LOL!
Welcome Linny! Good luck with the wisdom teeth. You may be stuck having nothing but liquids for a few days but be sure not to drink those liquids using a straw (they will probably tell you that during your surgery, but I thought I should let you know just in case. It is a major no-no since drinking through a straw can cause some rotting problems in your now-empty teeth sockets -- sounds fun!)
Linny, I have a couple of wisdom tooth tips. The Tylenol 3s with codeine that they gave me, such constipation that the pain of the constipation was worse than the pain in my face, I stopped taking them very quickly. When you are only having liquids, it's hard to clear constipation, if I had it to do over again, I'd get a different pain killer or I'd have a stock of metamucil or some other kind of fibre drink on hand.
Second and most importantly, prop yourself up when you sleep after the surgery. I was fine right after the surgery until I went to sleep, I laid flat and all the blood pooled in my face and I woke up terribly swollen. As long as your head is above your heart when you lie down, you probably won't swell too much.
Those wisdom teeth will hurt. I had four pulled out. The best part I guess was what the stuff doctor gave me during the procedure. It felt veryyyy good and I didnt feel anything. But for a month after that I was on pain killers. Jennifer is right about sleeping with your head on a couple of pillows. Do not suck on anything (straws, cigarettes) as that may cause complications. Good luck.
I still have my wisdom teeth.. how much do you think those things weigh? Hmmm... maybe I should get rid of them! :)
Titanium,
That might be a rather expensive way to lose a couple of grams, I'd use the money for lipo or a trainer or something.
yay linny! best of luck to you, kid!!
