    Herbalife

    I use Isagenix. While it is expensive (about $300 a month), it replaces 68 meals during the month. I feel better now than I have in my whole life. The concept is complete wellness and nutrition. It rids your body of toxins while providing perfect nutrition.
  2. I am able to sell it but the only reason I am even considering it is because of how much I love the products. My boss got me hooked on it and I can't get over how wonderful I feel. I don't look at it as a business opportunity. I am just doing it for the products. I am definitely not out to sell to anyone.
  3. I know this is an old post but I searched Isagenix on here. I am so excited to see that some people have used it. I just started this week and I have to say I am LOVING it!!! I had my band surgery in June and I have been doing well. The Isagenix was started solely for the wellness and nutrition factor. The weight loss/inches loss is just a nice side effect. My mom just started using it too and is feeling amazing.

    Fill Problems

    I was so excited to get my band filled today. Everything was going great! They put in 4 ccs. It was all downhill from there. I sat up, felt okay, started drinking my Water. At the second sip, I got hot all over, a little tingly, and then started heaving. The doc took out 2 ccs. I still feel really weak but at least I can swallow water. Has this happened to anyone else?
  7. Banded 6/11. I am down 31 pounds total since starting the liquid diet. I feel GREAT!!!! I haven't had any food issues so far. Some days I forget to get all of my protein and supplements in. I find that if I am not eating enough, I lose nothing. I am getting my first fill on Wednesday so I am pretty excited about that. I also have much more energy and all of my pants are WAY TOO BIG.

    Sorry Guys! Spotting....

    Same things...also if you are on the pill and they gave you the anti-clotting shots, I have heard it makes the pill ineffective.

    Stomach Belt

    I wore it when I started exercising more shortly after surgery mainly for my port which was still sore. It made a huge difference and made exercising much more comfortable.
  10. Monday will be 2 weeks post-op. Today I put on my wedding ring for the first time in 8 months. And for the first time in 3 years, my feet aren't sore and swollen. I am down 20 pounds since pre-op which isn't too shabby either. I hope this is the start of the new me!!!
  11. I am day 6 as well. Some people actually feel pain differently than others. You are doing fine. I am one of the people that have said how great I feel. However, I still have port incision pain and getting up is awkward. I could have probably gone back to work yesterday but i do not have a physically demanding job. I know people that needed 2 full weeks. I think everyone just heals at their own pace. Take it easy!
  12. I felt horrible day 2. Regrets, just not feeling right. I had very little pain which I could've cared less about. It was all the other feelings, nausea, anxiety, lump in my throat, gas. Today is day 5 and I feel pretty great. It will get better. Hang in there!

    Ate Some Tomato Soup

    That's how I felt when i drank too much too fast. It was just uncomfortable.
  14. Hope everyone is doing well after Monday. I wish i could get rid of these gas pains in my back. I guess walking is the answer since they don't bother me when I am up.
  15. Hang in there. I was just banded Monday. I had terrible nausea day 2 and part of 3. I didn't take pain meds by choice or any type of tylenol. I just have some gas pains in my back. Today i am like a new woman.
