just seeing how the june bandsters (like myself are doing).. how are you? how is the weight loss? how are things in general?

love you eye candy

there was about 2 or 3 yesterday..one hit my blogs and inputted like 45 updates on one trying to sell gucci i report them, then block... i also reported the 2 i saw today

well, speaking for me, my 5 incisions at 6 months out are barely visable...the only one you can (visually see) is port one. its a very light pink. to me its not a big deal as i dont blame on being in my pink polka dot bikini anytime soon..but as the time passes, they do fad.... i have had several major surgeries, and the scars are almost not there.

because i dont have any fills yet, i am def using my (mind want power) in eating only my allotted amounts and trying to stay focused on the big picture. i sometimes wish i had a fill but i see that as an insurance policy on my side...best of luck

nothing wrong with eating. so what is done is done. today is a new day Gf. do the best you can right now. hang in there.

i felt (esp when my shoulder started hurting and i became bathroom queen) WTF was i thinking.......but i realized and this is what has got me through it all, that i have something to help me...to lose weight..i know right now you are healing and its sore and it hurts, but just imagine where you will be this time next year...that is what i think or tell myself .....congrats on your surgery hon.

gas at 3.26

def call 911 if you are having bad thoughts about hurting yourself and doing drugs to help you forget is just stupid. you didnt gain weight overnight and it wont be gone overnight..am sorry you are struggling so.

sounds like a way for the band to say you ate too much or too fast....my sign is a baby hiccup...

at 1 month post op, it was whatever as tolerated...small bites, chew alot....stop at 1 cup and stop after 20 minutes...

i had the hernia repair. it was painful to take deep breaths but it does get better. if you are in such pain 12 days out, call your dr and let them advise you.

did your doctor not give you a hand out as to what is okay or not? (its best for you to rely on your dr as what works for some of us may not work for you)...

my short goal right now is to get under 200. i really want to see 199

no because 6 months ago i could hardly walk and i was at 336 pounds.....i only regret i did not have the mind set to get this surgery sooner. it saved my life... all want power.

i reported it and also (blocked) the person as they hit my status' and blogs heavy this a.m.

i had 1/2 glass of white wine on xmas eve. first time i had any alcohol since may (when i started my pre op)

i stop at a cup of food period its all about (want power). i want to lose weight bad enough that i am willing to do whatever i have too to make it happen and that means following my dr's instructions and eating proper nutrition.

well, when you got this band, i hope the dr told you it would not be easy...there is a reason we do the pre and the post op diets..i agree its very hard. since july, (after my post op days) i havent had one bit of soup as i was so tired of it for a month straight. trust me, been there/done that... it takes more than will power...all about WANT power....you have to want this bad enough to stay with it..if you give in now, you will only hurt yourself and you came too far for that....

when i was on 2 1/2 weeks liquids pre and then for 2 weeks after, it was liquids in and liquids out for me..did not have this issue. hope you feel better.

i am 6 months out and my biggest scar was about 2 inches long and is a very faint pink now..barely noticable...the other4 incisions, you cant even see. truthfully, its not really worrying about.

you are still very swollen on the inside hence why you are hungry or seem full as you heal, your appetite will return..it did with me..and your positive thinking will need to come into play...liquids are liquids and will pass straight thru..please sip sip and sip...once you start (eating) just stop at 20 minutes and my dr suggested waiting 30 min after eating.....i think you are going to do just great
