After Surgery, Do Any Of You Struggle With Still Eating Too Fast ???
m1aman replied to marketingdude's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Me too. I still forget I have a band sometimes and just start eating normally. It only takes a couple of bites to get that feeling of impending doom. -

m1aman replied to 911chrystal's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
When I first started the LD I had a slight headache for about 2.5 days. And also the runs. I ate lots of sugar free popsicles too. Just letting you know. Good luck! -
Surgery Date Is June 6!! Should I Tell Family??
m1aman replied to Lapband Maggie's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Not knowing you or your family it is really hard to say. But I do know this, once you tell you can't take it back. I only told two people I absolutely had to tell. Much to my dismay, they have told many people. -
Is The Band Really Failing You, Or Are You Failing The Band?
m1aman replied to DELETE THIS ACCOUNT!'s topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I personally welcome any and all opinions about the band. Everyone should have their say without being judged or assumptions being made. -
Night sweats can also be a sign of thyroid problems.

Go ahead and get rescheduled. No point in stressing yourself. Life is short. -

Swallowing Pills After Surgery?
m1aman replied to eyewonder's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgeon says it is okay to open Prilosec, which comes in a capsule. -
My port is about 6 inches above my naval and an inch to the left. It doesn't bother me at all sleeping or moving around and it doesn't show, yet. I got the lap band because I finally came to the realization I was never going to be able to keep weight off through diet alone. I got banded in Oct 11 and so far I consider it a success. Good luck to you!

My hair is falling out too. I have been taking biotin for about 3 weeks. I figure that isn't long enough to tell a difference though.

What's The Main Reason Why Some Peoples Bands Slip?
m1aman replied to litl1997's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Thanks for that info. I do notice on here that a lot of peoples docs give fills before the 6 week mark and do not use fluoroscopy. -
Yes I am now. But of course I wasn't always. Never had a problem with people eating in front of me. It has no effect on me.

Wal Mart online carries Atkins shakes and other brands also.

m1aman replied to litl1997's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Proven fact? Okay where is your proof? Not saying it doesn't exist. I would just like to read that study. -
Ha. I think they mean tummy tuck. I am laughing because some of these abreviations on here confuse me too.

m1aman replied to litl1997's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I would assume the carb drinks pass right through your band to the main stomach. If so, it wouldn't stretch your pouch. -
I could care less what someone eats in front of me. Get a grip on yourself first before you get one on him/her/them.
