I take a towel to bed with me for the PBs wich happen more at night, the low blpod pressur ewas scaruy and linked to taking a rx diurtetic, wihc oim going to cease doing, but he tried to do a slaone drip and we couldnt get a vein bevaise my dehydration had dried up all my veins, so the only other optu=ion wa sto go to hospital wich thank god i didnt have to do, my blood pressure was 54 opver 43- thats almost DEAD, dont think dehyradtion ismt veryu very very very dangerous, i just wante dto warn everybody since this was a very serious complication, i naturally have low blood pressure but systeloic( sic) at 43? thats so beyond bad. anyway i hpe someone benefits from this inforlmation KEEP HYDRATING.

sure hol;d it against you though i fyou have a "low" bmi, the surgery that performed my banding didnt want to, they were pissed that my bmi isnt high i have a family member with a low bmi same as mine and because she aateenager they are making a stink out of giving her the band despit eputting he rthrough psych evaluations and endocronolgists and xrays to see if her stomach size would hold the band i measured her wrists and of cours eit will plus this dr has performed on 11 year olds. its not uncommon at all. the othe rdrs wouldnt even do the surgery - one- dr Phillips is a real piece of work he put me through four hours of psych and other stuiff an dthen smirkingly refused me the band, i was desperate and called themost high end dr i kno whwo happens top be a top dermotologist - he knew the people who actually mak ethe band And called them and thats how i foundmy dr who doesnt judge bmis, hes cool that way, he judges wethe ryour chunky or not, i fyou wanna model or act this other than a fantastic thyroid is the only way to go, unless youd like to be in the gym 5 hours a day every day and get yourself an eating disorder wich im not willing to do. anyway fills today, cant wait. its my third fill/ the sweet spot get s hit then i lose anothe r8 or so and the band gets loose again. anyway so im hoping just 10ccs more will be a perfect antidote to this darned 146 146 146 everyday, i need to be at 130 by april 15th, i gave my word and my career depends upon it, tho 125 would be gravy. thanks gonnabe

my fills so tight i d be lucky to eat a prawn without throwing uop it must be inthe prefct place......i cant even relate to eating what you described i think its too high or too low palce dincorrectly and if so its your doctors responsibility gto fix it for free, get a sonogram and bring it to him from yur gyn ob, ifyour female. idlooove a lobster wow! but am still not at goal weight and lobsters can wait. -
hey threw upon both my fills and he still did it, the first ine was too much butthe second one was in between 1,75 as opposed to 1.9 whats worng with your diet imho. i stay n two three shakes a day, and a few teaspoons of anything i want in the evening lastnight i had lean low cal linguini, two or three teaspoon and a 6o0 calorie jello,. i beat the 152.4 this morning and finally saw in glowing lovely numbers 150.6 onmy scale, i started at 182,dec 21. theres ahormone calle cytomel with helps with thyroid its only tempirary your not suppose dto tak eit for more than 6 weeks., i ythink you need to demand a fill a sthe patient and get restricted enough that your basically on shakes, with my fill i could not imagine whatsoever eating what you ear a day, you wont be hunrgy if you getthat fill so id fight for it. callhim and fight for it, yeah deveryones different but noone doesnt get fills i get fills when iask and want. maybe my doctor is soeciual i dontknow, he actually is opretty great, but in any case, id fight fo rit. gonnabe

Do you think Celebs & other famous people have Lapband surgery?
gonnabeskinny replied to JLB's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
as an actor in la actress rAther, I think its sick how thin we are expected to be, but theres not a dammed thing i can do about it, what i do know is my dr is very close to the lapband people and they are going to start heavily marketing it to people with bmis in the late 20s and 30s. i was 26, wich is why i had to go to the top. but its already creating a positive buzz about me, and at goal weight whenever this dammed plateau breaks i willget good work, when igained a few pounds the tabs were calling me "the next kirsty alley" it was humiuliating and i lost jobs got sent no scripts except to play a transexual crackhead in a b movie, even a size 8 is unappceptable and im really tall, 5 10, i had no choice, im restricted pretty tight- shakes only since dec21, when i try to eat i throw up, but i will get unrestricted as soon as i drop 10 more maybe 15, to a more realistic restriction, my 18 year old daughter is also getting the procedure. Shes been modelling or was until she got attacked by the fat gene from my side of the family, one sister is over 300, my father who is not hers is 300 plus and my mother has got to be 280 at least. my friend a major model, done 6 vogue covers hasnt got an eating disorder- she has a THYROID disorder but to the opposite effect most of us get it, shes scared though, she really does eat and eat and never gains not a n ounce apparently those with Thyroid diroders that create thinness are just as dangerous if not more than those wich create obesity. i know a few people whove had this, a list actresses, from various drs in la and yes i believe Nicole R does have on e and abused it. i dont know for sure ive never asked. i think the comment that its personal is right on, ive been fairly open with my friends but not with the public, it would cost too much. Im glad ms Osbourne is open about it but she was never really a celebrity well yes shes a celebrity biut shes nt an artist with her career riding in good behaviour and not talking ab out it. im so happy ive lost 30 pounds since dec 21 but its not enough, i need to go down 10-15 lbs before im "ready" to attack again, and youd all get mad at me if i told you what my goal weightis even though alot of you have the same goal weight. i just feel like noone can relwate to me and noone willadmit it- there ar ethos eof ius at dinner who move our food around or just order a shake or take small sips and eat a little mashed potato, ands i wonder " did shde do it too/" or does "she have an eating disorder and load sof discipline" i cant tell anyone and noone can tell anyone. re bikinis- the scars seem to be going way away, do they ever go away completely? re anna nicole- im 99% sure she had a lapband, wich is why trimpsa is getting sued- but now im hearing in a UK Gossip site wich is ussually right called HOLYMOLY its a mail out gossipp letter i get it because its very insidery- that she died from her band RUPTUIRING wich is giving me second thoughts about my daughter. is this possible? HOLY MOLY can also be full of it. ive rea dthings baout frineds and self on there wich are right though.ive also read utter nonsense on there but all i n all its pretty reliable.nasty as hell, but fo rUK celebs, reliable, ( im, British) i really want these scars to go away- its important i be able to wear a bikini. -
i tgoo have lost 30 pounds since dec 21 but the scale sticks rightthere at 152 and doesnt move for a eeek now-= i bog my first fill and got sepa- i c ouldnt swallow my won spit an dhad to ahev the dr coem over and unfill me and refillme at modnoght, it was awvful do im 1.75 now , instea do fthe 1,9 i was triung fo rbut i still cant eat- im in shakes and i eat abotu 6-900 c alories a day- wtcf? why cant i beat this 152? i have to be 135 asap, im ana ctress and i promised my agent i would turn up inmy size 4 leather pants, i wanttos atr buying sixes instea diom a six on bottoma nd an eight ont op and actresses in my category dont get hired at size eight- they just dont- when iw as on atkins allthe time and supe rthin i got offered some major major roles- thnats the game out here- but i cant bdeat this 152.4 on my scale and im PISSED. ive tried the slaine flush the wate rretention pills and body wraps and exercise too tho not much- i dont have alot of energy. anyone else even plateua like this- ims o osick of seeing those numbers i could kick some booty. and i cant get any more restricted or illget sepa again. sepa blockage i think is the correct term. any support would be welcome. tyhanks your secret actress........gonna be

gonnabeskinny replied to BeacheeGirl's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
i agree completely, i want to be thin but not at the expenseof my health. i just did the shale calculations, i was simply in lala land about my caloric intake and after i lose a few mor epounds i think ill get a release in fact so i can eat food , because i can barely eat a tablespoon of anything, without getting qute ill, until then if somethings too good to be true it probably is, i ewas giuzzling shakes like crazy and lising nothing an dnow i know why- i should be on 5 -6 shakes a day, max if im going to stick to isopure- 210 cals a serving and 90 cals for a serving of skim milk, thats 300 cals for one shake- thats a frappucino. if anyone knows of any LOW CALORIE shakes pleaee let me know and i do appreciat eyour concern, i told my doctor id prefer to stay on .liquids this month an dthats why i got swuch a tight fill, just until i get back to an 8, then i will let the fill looser. its not stardom per se- its acting opportunities that im after, andnot being typecast as a kooky friend or a villian due to weight. or the mom of a teenager when im not old enough to be a mom of a teenager- thast what they do with "fat actresses" - so yeah like anyone here i want to lose weght healthily but quickly, but thi swas silly, sily silly to not even think of the caloric intake i couldve been eating pizza and burgers all day - so now i know i must regulate these shakes to what i said 5-6 shakes in A 24 hour period and maybe some fruit, smallamnounts and cottage cheese again smalla mounts. Thank you for your concern. gonna be. -

im not super well known im just a striggling actress whose sort of well known soi want to do things the thin actresses do, and would get to do if i was losing. iadded upthe calories on my shakes today and realised the isopure was 210 a serving, so i have to have a stop on the number of shakes im having a day. i think thats the problem, i was comsuming 3400 caloreis in shake a day. i now know what to do about this problem. i am drinking the equivalamnt of a pound a day and what isaid about the lapband people being ready to start maketingto people with lower fat indexes is totally true. sorry of t seemed a lala land post but i cant be 178 pounds and i need to be 130 like evryone else. i think ive located the problem thanks to advic eon another thread. but i wanted to post that yeah that was a SERIOUS post, an actress who goes tpo fashion week skinny has a far far far better chAnce of magazine pieces than one whose voluptuos or truthfully fat, sorry if those things freaked you out. gonna be. -
