A thread for Single Bandsters
Oregondaisy replied to NewBeginnings2018's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Good luck! It's good that he wants you to meet the family . guys usually don't want to do that unless they are serious. -
So what is this magazine you mentioned. I used to read mags to get in the mood years ago but I have not heard of this one. Pent House is pretty raunchy.

thanks, I need all the help I can get!

I have been getting utis chronically. I do everything I am supposed to do, like getting up to pee immediately. My daughter told me that if we were to use condoms, that would take care of it. We are both in our 50's and there is no way either one of us could make a baby but I am wondering if that is what is causing the uti's . I have always been told by all the doctors that bacteria gets shoved into the urethra. I go and see a urologist next week, and I will ask him this question. I was just wondering if anyone else finds using condoms cuts down the UTI problems.

I hate it when people post just to post.....

So last night it was on discover health? I don't get that channel but you said it was a re-run. I have all of them saved on my dvr from the beginning of this past season but there were not that many. We should all write to tlc . They must have a place to comment on their web page. It's very educating and they need to leave it on! -
I have not heard of this magazine variations. Is that like Pent House or something? My daughter is trying to talk me into one of those "fun parties" Maybe that's what I need so I can look at stuff. I know there are sex toys but I have never seen anything except for a vibrator called a magic bullet.

sliming is when your mouth fills up with thick saliva to try to get whatever is stuck through the band. Pb stands for productive burp but in my opinion, it's just a nice way of saying throwing up Kevinsmom, this is not good. If you don't have a fill and you're already having these problems, that is a big problem. I will be curious what happens or if the doctor can figure out why this is happening already.

Anyone found a good whey based protein bar?
Oregondaisy replied to Phoenix's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I like the Atkins bars. The nougut ones are really good. I bought some at costco called Premiere but they have 300 calories and Atkins only has 160. -
Just stay in touch with all of us. Being unfilled is difficult for all of us. Take that appetite supressent if you need it. I will sometimes take one if I am going to a party. Just try to stay away from carbs cause it's the carbs that cause cravings.

I am so glad it's the weekend but weekends always bring too many temptations. -
I buy a chicken already cooked from Walmart all the time. I love the thighs and lets but the breast has never been my favorite. Using spinach dip has solved this dilemma. I dip the breast in the spinach dip. yummy!

I did not know this about fills! Losing weight again- Yea!

UTI's suck! -
Thank you! Man, I hope it's that simple. If condoms gets rid of this chronic pain, it's a small price to pay. He won't be very happy he has to use one, but he is not the one in pain.
-
yea, your band is probably clamping down from the cold. I never drink anything cold. Cold tightens the band.
-
oh yea. i can orgasm alone easily. and I used to orgasm with a partner too, so this problem is new to me. I do go to the bathroom as soon as we are done and it doesn't help. My daughter told me today to use a condom and that would help. my bf has a vasectomy and I have been through menopause so we aren't using them. I wasn't worried about std's because i am the only person he has been with after his 25 yr marriage broke up.
-
oh I am not really stressed about it. It's not like we try every day. He only stays over on the weekends. it's really sounding like more of a big deal in here. I am really stressed that every time we do it, I get a uti. maybe that's what's making me not relax. hard to relax when you know your'e going to get a uti. I see a urologist next week. I hope he can help
-
you must have a tight fill. Sliming is caused from an obstruction. I don't usually drink anything cold. cold tighten the band. I even warm my Water in the microwave. Slime is what your body produces when it's trying to pass something through the band. It's very thick saliva.

Streching the pouch with to much liquid?
Oregondaisy replied to Nachtigall's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
No you can't stretch your pouch with too much liquid. Liquid goes right through the band into your stomach. -
I eat a lot of Protein bars. They make a great breakfast on the run. I usually eat Kashi Crunch cereal for breakfast though. Gotta have that Fiber. String cheese is good. I buy those chickens that are already cooked at Walmart and I can eat off that for a few days. cottage cheese mixed with yogurt is good too. There are several threads like this. I would think if you did a search for ideas, you could bring them back.
-
I am being extra good today. I didn't even bother to weigh myself this am. I had my kashi crunch cereal for breakfast, a protein bar for lunch, and I will have some chicken for dinner. I am so lazy, I don't even feel like fixing any veggies. I will more than likely have a sf fudgesicle too. Can't seem to make it through the day without one of those.

Really BASIC question - what is PBing?
Oregondaisy replied to froggie456834's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes, you could call it a mini throw up. When something is stuck and pops right up, it's not that bad. When something is stuck and won't come up, it can be painful and the slime goes on for a good long while. I am glad I am done with all that. I haven't had a fill since Dec. and I have perfect restriction and can eat anything I want. It pays off in the end! -
I sent a pm to whosyadaddy but haven't gotten a response from him. I am curious as what kind they are using.
-
Sometimes it can be fixed by going back on the liquid diet. Otherwise, they have to go in and fix it surgically. I am not completely sure of the symptoms but I have heard a lot of heartburn, no restriction, or too much restriction where you have trouble eating at all.
