Banded March 2012, down 71 pds!

Try a hearing pad as well as gas x. Don't forget to walk, walk and walk some more! Made me feel much better!

I have no problem with corn. I eat in public all the time and have few problems. I have more issues at home! Go figure!

92 for self pay under floro! Changed job with diff insureance! Now I am self pay!

Ow do you know you have a stretched pouch or need another fill?? I had my second fill about three weeks ago and can still eat a cup and not be completely satisfied! Just need a little help, thanks! Miss

K, I am about to go in for my fourth fill and yesterday after three weeks of not bring hungry, BAM , I am hungry ALL the time! Is this normal?have a lot of you guys experienced this! It sucks!! Can't wait til the 27!

Mis73, I like your reason better! pink dailia, I can see that as well. Thank you so very much for th info!

I never have water at the table with dinner! That has been the hardest habit to break! After a meal, I pop a piece of gum in my mouth to keep me occupied from drinking! That has helped me considerably! Good luck!

I had that happen to me! Just call your dr. And them them and they should call in a prescription for an antibiotic! Mine happened on the port site and the one just above the belly button!

Try gas x. It helped me and walking every time I felt a ting of pain!

I want to have a child! This increases the chances greatly! Health reasons as well! Haven't had any and didn't want to start! My husband and I have been try for over five years without success! Hopefully this will work!

I'll have to ask about that!

Just found out my new companys insureance doesn't cover athing to do with gastric bandings! one of the owners had a bad experience so they excluded it from the policy! So bummed! I did call my dr office and the cost is only 92 a fill.

Wine is always a wonderful option!

WOW, that hurt! I have not felt that before! Just had my third fill last Friday and never had restriction. Now I do and holy cow what a difference! Was eating a piece of blueberry muffin for breakfast and bam, felt like someone was stabbing me in the back. Hurt like h€{{! Should I do liquids? Still fell it a little!

Not a huge cereal fan! I like my eggs!

My name is cavintiger on fitness pal. Feel free to add me as well! Missy

Thanks, I'll remember that!

You are right! Def a learning experience! I think my bread days are over! Before this full I could eat whatever I wanted, of coarse proper choices! Not any more! No slim! I am sitting in the a auto shop, really no options! But you are right! Hunger sometimes gets the best of ya!

Mine paid for all but my co pay!

Khaylar, I have gone through the same thing! I am just a few years older than you (37) and have tried ww and lost, gained, etc... I finally one day looked I the mirror and didn't recognize the fat person in the mirror! That was the end, I went to a seminar the next week started the journey to be banded. I have been banded for almost four months and have lost 30 lbs since the surg! I am starting to like and recognize that person in the mirror again! I wouldn't change a thing! Very happy with it!!

Just wanted to see if people peeled peaches or ate the skin? Had surg on 3/15/12 and love fresh peaches and heard the skins can be hard to digest! Thanks, missy

I have bcbs of Alabama had to do their 6 month diet, nutrition class and physical theropy consult! Turned in last two years offer notes with weight on it. Called the surgeons office to see if they received all applicable paperwork within two hours I had a call asking when I wanted to schedule surg! My BMI was on the low low end! Good luck and keep your head up!

Had my first fill at 6 weeks!

Congrats! You'll love it!
