Happy Birthday Cheryl! I hope it continues to be a special day. Those AARP folks are persistent. Makes for good recycle material! I will NEVER be old enough for AARP! We are only as old as we feel and the band gives us a new beginning! Thanks for being a good friend and supporter!

I have to take half dose of Miralax every day to even approach regular. Benefiber and Collace do nothing for me.

This week was good: 23.23 New total is: 63.36 Thanks for the incentive. I needed to be less of a slug.

Fabulous! You go girl! Congratulations! There is no feeling like it! Enough motivation to keep you moving down!

We can make our own music walking down the hall! The pains go away, but the gas continues I am afraid. I think it is a result of the high amounts of protien we eat!

We need reputable information. Please provide reference sources or leave those of us happy with our decision alone. Thank you.

I have never had trouble with scrambled eggs unless I take too big of a bite. Keep trying, things change.

3 weeks and first fill now what to eat
CHEZNOEL replied to Hersheyskiss21's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
48 hours liquids after fill done? If so, you can try anything... start soft. -

Congratulations, sorry you did not have better nursing care.

Good luck, do you have to unfill the band during the pregnancy?

All prepared foods have extra sodium as preservative. You would be much better off to cook your own meals. Another good source of protein is many groceries cell pre-roasted chickens, Simply de-bone them and store in serving size amounts.

Got my finalized 2 week pre op diet
CHEZNOEL replied to MandaMom23's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Congrats to you all. Just stick to the pre-op diet, for your own good. It make the docs job a lot easier! -
Terry... be aware that fat cells store a lot of different hormones. It is entirely possible that as you lose weight your levels could change. I think it is a good plan to have them checked periodically.

I am just hoping I can get to 4 years and maintain. Do what you need to do for yourself, but you have to really WANT it this time.

We make our own music! LOL!

What's the big deal about patient compliance?

Good or bad idea to get a fill before vacation??
CHEZNOEL replied to heidijane's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
It sounds like you are doing fine with the fill you have. Getting a fill and being too tight for vacation sounds like a bad idea to me personally. I always try to make sure I have a least a week before traveling after a fill. -
Do what you want for yourself. No one can tell you but you what that is. My doc said my goal was 180. I want 165... so I am still working on it!
-
I agree... call your doctor, and do not try to drink the whole shake all at once! Sip slowly.
-
Your band should not make you throw up. Throwing up is BAD! Sometimes just a half cc will make all the difference. The doc did not empty your band. You still have it. You should be on liquids after a fill or unfill though to avoid irritation.

ROFL! Fantastic NSV! Buy new pants!

CHEZNOEL replied to tb_pgh's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Phlegm is a sign of eating too fast and or being stuck. Slow down, and remember, you even need o chew jello! -
Congrats and welcome to Banded Life!
