    It's Coming Out!

    Hope everything goes well for you! Good luck
  2. The shoulder will eventually get better but it will be a while. Hang in there! My doc says there is a nerve that is affected in the surgery that causes the pain. Now one year out I will get the pain for a minute or two if I eat to much.

    Banded 9/24/12

    You need to walk. Get into an hourly couple hour routine. Walking around the house not the block . Rest take your pain meds so your comfortable. I think you need to "go" but see how it plays out give yourself a few days if nothing call the doc you don't want a stomach ache from that too. Good luck!

    Agreed! I'm an emotional eater too but after I eat it I feel horrible for two reasons rather than dealing with the one. Your not alone! Good luck

    Unjury

    Unjury tastes great and so does Jay Robb. He is more expensive but good. A lot of the stores and online you can order sample packets to try them. Start there. I mix with milk or crystal light. Milk keeps me satisfied longer because of the extra calories. Good Luck

    Getting A Bad Feeling About Approval

    I had my surgery approved and paid $65 to see a nutritionist. The insurance would not cover it. My surgery was $40k I had a heart issue after and had to stay a extra day in the hospital. I figure I could cover the $65 since they paid that. Don't be discouraged. Good luck to you!

    Lightheadedness = Unhappy Workout

    Maybe your body has to get use to the diet. When my trainer works me really hard I get light headed some times. It gets better as I get stronger but eating before I see him really helps. Good Luck!
  16. Has anyone thought about switching from the band to a different weight loss surgery / method? Has the band been determined to be ineffective for anyone?
