Thanks for podting this. I completely agree. It took about 6 months and about 8 fills for me to get to the green zone AND a lot of lessons how MY band worked. Slow is good! We didn't gain the weight overnight so it's not going to drop off overnight either.

♕ajtexas♕ replied to kittylove32's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I like the brand Fage. It comes in all different fruits, peach, strawberry, rasberry, cherry. I like them all. Its 120 calories, 13g Protein for a 5.3oz cup. I'm eating peach right now, yummy! -
I would check with your doctor. Mine said nothing that is fizzy, like alka selser and airbourne.

Any Ideas When You Are Craving Chocolate??
♕ajtexas♕ replied to Anglkrys2's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I make popsicles out of a pre made protein shakes, like EAS or Adkins. I put the shake in a popsicle mold and freeze it. I get 6 popsicles out of 1 shake. When I crave chocolate ice cream I have one and the craving is satisfied. It works for me. -

I strongly recommend Bandwagon by Jean McMillan. It is the best book on the band, I refer to my copy almost daily. Goto http://jean-onthebandwagon.blogspot.com to order it. Jean is an active member here on LBT.

Surgery Went Well!

Wishing you a speedy recovery. Welcome bandster! -
Had to have a small unfill today. I've been struggling with a very tight band last two days. I think the meds for my back are the cause. Feel much better now. I don't know how banders can go for days/weeks with a band that is too tight. I'm happy again.

Wrong. Emo eating 1 you 1! You acknowledged what was happening and you made a better food choice. That is a win for you. Keep up the good work . Next time you might just walk out of the store. Be proud of your actions, I'm proud of you.

Now I Know What Stuck Feels Like!
♕ajtexas♕ replied to Tsign36's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I would recommend liquids for 24hrs. Your stomach is now irritated and eating food could cause another stuck episode. I do 24hr liquids, 24hr mushie then back to normal when I get stuck. Good luck. -

I Have Not Had A Fill In Years And Nervous About Calling Dr.
♕ajtexas♕ replied to HeartsandKittens's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I can't answer your questions, Ive been banded 7 months. My advise is call your doctor. What is the worst they will say? We missed you, now lets get you back on track. Welcome back and good luck! You can do this! -
Recovery Time???
♕ajtexas♕ replied to Harrier's Woman's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I agree with Kime-lou. It depends on the individual. I took a week off work, I have a desk job and had no problems returning. Some are able to go back to work after only a few days. If you are able to take the time my advise would be to take it. Good luck with your surgery.
