My Step Daughter Is Going To Be Fat.
dylanmiles23 commented on ♕ajtexas♕'s blog entry in ajtexas's Blog
One day she will see you are on her side. I have a 34 year old son who is very obese. I have tried everything with him. He knows better because he has been thinner. He now has a wife and 2 sons who all eat crap! They lived with me for 10 months so I know how they eat. Awful. At least you are making great meals. Good luck with her seeing you are not the wicked witch. -
Both of you have great nails. Mine are short because I am done with tips. Tips ruined my real nails and gel polish peels off.
-
Great goals. I have never thought of doing them. Keep up the good work.

What a wonderful story! Great mother. I have 2 sons. Both are 6'2" and there is about 150-200 pounds between them. The youngest is the heavy one. I have tried everything with him. He is now 34 married with children.He and his wife eat awful foods and their 2 sons do too. When they lived me they knew I didn't approve of their choices. It is so hard. Doing the Band was the best thing I did. I hope one day my son wakes up and watches his in take. Good luck with yourself and your sons.

Before my band I had all those problems. Took 6 pills a day to eat. My doctor repaired my hernia and my stomach was in the wrong place, which he fixed too. I feel great without all those problems. Have you been checked for those? I have liquid Zantac from my surgery. Good luck.
-
I wish you a lot of luck. That is awful that after all these years that would happen.
-
Good luck!! Since my fill 4 weeks ago, I am the same weight. My pants fit better but I have major muffin top. Exercise like a mad person.

Good evening everyone After banding can you eat ribs? I haven't tried them yet. Yesterday I tried a chicken wing and it was too chewy, so I couldn't eat it. Wings are one of my favorite foods. Bye Bye wings. Also, how about rack of lamb? Is that a food that goes down well? Thank you.

I Feel Like A Transforming "butterfly"
dylanmiles23 commented on shonette's blog entry in Blog 79244
you look amazing! Sorry to hear about your illness. Can you find another doctor closer to where you live? I know where I had my surgery there are 3 surgeons in that office. Keep up the good work. -
I still see myself as very fat even though I am down almost 60 lbs. since March. My face lost the chubbiness and my new jean size is misses not womens anymore! I haven't lost any weight since my fill 3 1/2 weeks ago but the inches have gone down. That I don't understand. Good luck.

Sorry to hear about the shakes. I love them. I use Lactaid milk because regular milk was bothering me. People also use soy or almond milk. In my shakes I put decaf instant coffee, peppermint extract and lots of ice cubes and it comes out very thick and filling. I only drink chocolate flavored powder. Good luck!

Hi, I had a fill 3 1/2 weeks ago and my weight has stayed the same but I have lost inches. I bought a pair of jeans 3 weeks ago and they fit great and were tight when I bought them. Good luck!

You are very very lucky! Be proud. I wish I could see that number. Since I had a fill 3 weeks ago I have been stuck at the same number but clothes fit better. I don't get it.

Congratulations on being banded! The shoulder pain is from the gas they put in you. Use a heating pad, it works. The pain should go away in about 3 days. The belly gas doesn't leave. I was banded 7/30 and always have gas and was told by banders that is normal. Good luck with your new life and eating healthier!

Today I finally had my favorite-pizza! I had one slice and it went down great. I still haven't tried lettuce yet. I love to eat salad but I am afraid of choking on the lettuce. I had my support group tonight and we talked about exercise. The one thing I don't do. Next week I am joining a gym. I am going to try to go 3-5 days a week. The physical therapist we had as a speaker tonight thinks tread mills are not great. He likes recumbent bikes and ellipticals better. Good to know because those are the 2 pieces of equipment that I like. I find tread mills boring. Have a great evening everyone.

Good luck! My husband today asked me if you can stretch the band and gain weight. I guess you answered his question. I went to my support group tonight and love it. Do you still go to them?

3 Years On October 22Nd 2012 - Annual Checkup
dylanmiles23 commented on aghealthy's blog entry in Blog 78170
Great Story!!!! Good for you. I was banded 7/30 and I am doing great. Best thing I ever did for myself. I don't exercise enough either. I think next week I am joining a gym. Just going will be the trick. Good luck and thanks for hope. -
Hello, i think you're doing great. I have gas really bad after I eat. My husband thinks it has to do with the new stomach being smaller and how the food passes through. I never asked anyone about this but at least there is no smell.
-
The scale has not moved down in about one week. I am pissed. I am now on Stage 5 for life so maybe my body is adjusting to food. I took my measurements one month ago and again today. I have lost inches so that makes me feel good. I finally fit into my misses size jeans, 18!!!!!! I haven't seen that size in over 10 years. Enjoy your Columbus Day weekend everyone.

Oh My Stars, I Can't Eat Anything!!!
dylanmiles23 commented on saramatos11's blog entry in saramatos11's Blog
Good evening, I would call the doctor as soon as you can. I don't think that sounds normal. Good luck. -
Happy Thursday everyone. Today I start Stage 5 and it's my birthday. My new life is starting and I am 62. It took me all these years to finally take care of me first. Having lunch out at a fish restaurant with my son and husband. I hope I do well eating something different. Have a great day everyone and think THIN! we are all worth it.

I had a fill on Friday and lost weight real fast being on liquids. Since I started eating food again I have gained 2 lbs. I hope it balances off this weekend. Good luck!

Good evening, At my last support group meeting we got a hand out showing different things to buy. One was a digital scale to weigh food. Is this a necessary purchase? I don't measure, I guess and have the butcher weigh my food raw. Clothes, today I wore my new jeans! Misses size not woman's. It felt great. Have a great week.

It Has Been 3 Months Since I Last Posted...
dylanmiles23 commented on Shelleymb's blog entry in Shelleymb's Blog
Congrats!!!! on the engagement. I feel bad that the insurance company doesn't think you are worth a new start. I live in MA and I was approved 1st time. Is it the state you live in? Don't give up. Try Weight Watches, Jennifer Hudson looks amazing. I just can't stick to those diets that is why I am banded. Good luck.
