Thamm

U look great.. U have truly inspired me

I love the Daly's Light Margaritas... They are 180 calories and 1.88 at Walmart and after two I feel it!!! Pre band I could drink a case of budlight lime no lie And now 2 of these margaritas have me ready for bed

On Sunday I cooked roast beef ( slow cooked with gravy), I ate a few pieces no problem. However last nite after Zumba I fixed a plate and ate a few pieces.. Slowly. Immediately, it was stuck!!! I have had the stuck feelings a few times before but this time was the worst!!! I felt like I couldn't breathe and it was so much slime!! I was miserable!! After about 30 minutes of the worse thing ever I vomited twice and felt immediate relief... How can something go down two days ago and kill me later??? So confused!!!

Now that makes alot of sense... Thank u no more microwaved leftover roast beef anymore!! And that's why I didn't make myself throw up I read somewhere that vomiting causes band slippage????

Was not dry the same exact meat and was with gravy. When I had it Sunday I ate a little bit to make sure I could tolerAte and then it was fine but last night it almost killed me!!! That is what confuses me it that less than 2 days a totally different results!!

I was trying my best to hold out because before it always has gone down eventually but last nite it was not happening!! In the future I will make myself throw up instead of being miserable for 30 minutes

I mAde sure to chew good but after last night I can add roast beef to my list not to eat EVER!!! Along with grilled pork chops..

No payment plan but alot of banks is financing it so that may option....

I was banded at Coliseum Northside however I was self pay so I didn't have to do nutrition/psych eval... Sorry. But I will be thinking of u.

One day at a time and if u need a buddy/friend I am here!! We in this together!!!

I didn't notice and thought everyone was crazy until I saw these two pictures together. 2 month difference and I can finally see some progress

I had surgery 4/19 and love it!! Down 3 sizes and 40 lbs weight loss however I walk daily and do Zumba three times a week... It is not a magic pill but a tool and with hard work u can be sucessful. Happy Banding

Well mine was on for 33 days straight ( not heavy just spotting) sorry tmi... But I have the depo and am not supposed to have a period!! Ughhhh!!! So frustrated!! Spoke with my primary dr and he blames the lap band... Lap band dr says ain't no way he is the cause!!! So here u sit everyday... Spotting!!!

Just had my first fill today And felt nothing!! Had my b/p up for no reason!! No need to stress it feels like a tb skin test!! Only bad part is back on liquids for 2 days!! Down 24 lbs since surgery 4/29.... Getting my Sexy back!!!!

Congrats!! So glad you didn't give up on love or the band!! Wish u much success And hAppiness in the future!!

Great job!! U look amazing!!

Thanx b52 for the excellent advice

Last nite we had a fight party... Well I guess I got overwhelmed with friends and I ate stuff I normally would not but in a small amount since I can not eat much as I used to. I had 3-4 meatballs, a Lil spinach dip, 1 wing and some pulled pork and I had 2 glasses of sangria wine. This was all between the hours of 830-2 am and that's it!! well this am I was very nauseated and had to RUN to the bathroom . I was gagging and after 30 minutes I vomited greasy stuff that burns my throat. I bow have diarrheA and horrible stomach cramps. I am praying I don't miss up my band. I am 3 1/2 weeks post op... PLEASE HELP

Thanx everyone... I am feeling much better. Still a Lil diarrhea but no more vomiting. I have went back to liquids only. My only concern was not damaging my band but like I said I only threw up greasy stuff no food and it happened 5 hours after I ate. I know now that this is a real lifestyle change and I'm committed to a healthy life. Thanx again for all the advice and I realize I have to change my habits and way of thinking

I have been scared to try chicken or beef.. I have been sticking to fish. I love baked and grilled salmon.

Day. 8 postop and I am really struggling!! 1st I can not drink them damn protein shakes and all day I feel like I'm nauseated. I keep getting thick spit in my mouth (sorry) and I want to eat real damn food!!!!! I can not lie I'm not hunger but I see my family eating and I want subway, Mexican, and fried chicken!! I have been cursing myself all day saying... What the hell was I thinking!!! I don't know if I can do this and I haven't had a fill yet!! I don't want no more Gatorade that takes 2 days to drink one bottle and I really want a beer and the thought of not ever having one is making me even more irritated!!! I am so over this and don't care if I be fat forever!!! Not in a good mood at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
