It's some special being run with the name thin in the title. Something like "I can think you thin" ( I have a horrible memory) I believe it was on TLC. I want to look for it so I can set my DVR Can anyone help?
-
Sure. That must be right. Do you know when that show is on? I should have written it down when someone mentioned it in a thread. Now I don't even remember which channel it's on.

Where do you get those apple jeans? I live in the middle of nowhere too, but we do have a Macy's. Would they be there? I got a pair of size 12 levis at Ross and I can't believe they are too big. I don't think they are sized right. I have jeans in all sizes and they all fit. I could never buy jeans online.

HELP!!! Don't know whats wrong!!
Oregondaisy replied to jackie123's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I would say you need to go on liquid Protein until you can talk to your doctor. At least call them and hear what they have to say. If you are pbing, everything inside is irritated, and you should be on liquids until things calm down. -
I don't even know what the difference is. Can anyone tell me what is different from that band and a Inamed 10cc band?

What does the "sweet spot" feel like?
Oregondaisy replied to warmmorningsun's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
A soft stop is when you get a signal from your body to stop. For some people, it's a runny nose. For a lot of people, it's a hick-up It might be listed in the Frequently asked questions sections. I am a moderator too, so I can ask the other mods where a soft stop is described. -
Why Aren't You Losing Weight?
Oregondaisy replied to WASaBubbleButt's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I freak out and worry all the time that something is going to go wrong with my band it will need to be removed. This just seems way too good to be true. I would love to go to WasA's dr. and get a sleeve if anything were to go wrong with my band. -
Yea, I have that same problem when I work out. I have 1/2 cup of Kashi Crunch cereal. It's very high in fiber and whole grain. If I don't eat it, I feel nauseous and like I am going to pass out, too. Today I have had half of an Atkins bar Lunch- broccoli and a few bites of steak. I am determined to eat more fiber so I ate more broccoli than steak. Dinner I will eat at the hospital with my daughter on her break. It will be some sort of meat and veggies.

Hey 50 & over gang We have a new spot
Oregondaisy replied to IndioGirl55's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Where did you grow up Janet? I guess you are like me. I have no real family here where I am, other than my kids. My dad is in Phoenix and my brother is in Chicago. -
I can go up and down if I am not careful. I am up one lb today from my daughter's birthday. I will go up if I go to the movies and eat popcorn. It takes me weeks of eating nothing wrong before I will drop again. I am sure I will get down to where I want to. It will just take me longer than some other people, who lose consistently every week. You know, you have lost practically the same as I have lost. I was banded the almost the last day of 06. So, we were banded almost the same time!

That's for sure. The band is the best present I have ever bought myself. Janet, If I came that way, it would be to see you. I really don't speak to that aunt anymore. She started a big fight with me when her son was in re-hab. I went and visited him and she got all angry cause she said it was supposed to be private. I wrote to her and told her he called me and asked me to come and visit. Anyway, I mentioned her because I have been all through that area when my husband was alive. His brother lived in 1,000 palms too. Do you know how many hour's drive it is from Phoenix? -
Kelly Fitzpatrick in Portland and Eugene will do fills. So will Dr. Tersingi but that's a long drive for you.
-
If I ever had to lose my band for any reason, I would get some other sort of WLS. Keep up the good work, Doddie. You're headed in the right direction. There were months that I lost nothing.
-
Oh yeah, I would hate to see what I would weigh by now. I was working out at the gym 6 days a week and gaining every week. I honestly don't even know how that was possible.
-
She carries her weight well alright. In her mind.

Janet, I bet I will get to meet you someday. I am all for getting away from Oregon in the winter. I have been in your area several times. I have an aunt that lives in 1,000 palms. Thank you Phyl. I really really appreciate this. I will definitely keep everyone informed. I am more at home here than anywhere. The singles thread is nice, but they are all in their 30's (mostly) and we are in a different ball park in our thinking when we are in our 50's. -
That's one funny picture, Wheets, LMAOPIMP I am so lucky I don't have a skin problem. My arms are not all that attractive, and I don't like my turkey neck. For the most part, for my age, I don't have anything to complain about. I won't be wearing any tank tops.

lauren, are you going to get a TT?
-
When I flew in Feb. I couldn't eat solids for two days. The first night I had to sleep sitting up. My band was definitely very tight for a couple of days after flying.
-
There aren't any sonics in Oregon, to the best of my knowledge. That girl should not be allowed to post at LBT
-
That's the stuff you have to buy online right? Can you give me the link again. I do drink at least 64 oz of water per day. Most days more. I just put some fiber one in my yogurt. I read somewhere to put it in a coffee grinder and mix it in foods. That benefiber doesn't help me either.

Oregondaisy replied to IndioGirl55's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Yea, I have asked all over the board to see if anyone was willing to help me but apparently not. Honest Janet, it said I signed up on 4-1 and didn't owe anything as long as I canceled before 7-1. I had customer service on the phone with me yesterday because I was a little leery myself. -
Anyone not losing due to emotional eating/eating around band?
Oregondaisy replied to mandi78's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Thank you for the link to the make you thin series. They even had a spot where they can they can email a reminded for you. I am definitely going to set it to record the series. -
There is an Oregon thread somewhere. I thought on the main board it's broken down into states. Am I incorrect? I love my dr. and I love my band!

Oregondaisy replied to IndioGirl55's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Is there anyone in this 50's thread that would be willing to help me out? I got a free match.com account for 3 months. I got an email from some company that said if I tried their face cream all I had to pay was $5 shipping and they would give me a free 3 month subscription to Match. I don't feel confident in my writing. Is there anyone on here who likes to write, and maybe even add a little humor in there, that can help me with my profile?
