Jack's Big Road Trip and the Slime Dogs from Hell
Bama53 replied to Jack's topic in WLS Veteran's Forum
Yep! I can eat my boiled egg one day and have to up chug it the next! I think it's because I eat too fast ! But warm tea is always good to calm things down. -
Wow! I've list 70 and never realized how much weight that is till u posted. I pick one of those up at work to replace, never realizing 2 of those is what I've lost so far. WOW! Thank you! And Congrats!!!

Why cant i see my accomplishment?
Bama53 replied to Wendydarling19's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
It seemed to take longer to lose those last few pounds to get to onederland, but I think it's because I wanted it so bad! So when I finally got there I sorta missed the excitement till now cuz in working for my next goal to be considered just overweight and no longer obese :! Hang in there ! -

Been banded since sept 13. My last fill was 1st of April and I have gotten stuck and thrown up more than my lifetime. I feel that the band is doing its job. I know I have either eaten too fast, too big a bite and did not chew good. BTW....Congrats on your awesome weight loss! Great job!
-
Personally for myself, when I get stuck and start sliming and the pain is almost unbearable, I go to the bathroom and get rid if it. It's usually just something small I did not chew good enough.

Got complacent.. and I need to move forward!
Bama53 replied to labwalker's topic in WLS Veteran's Forum
I had my gall bladder removed last month by same surgeon who did my Lapband. He told my husband after surgery that it was full of stones and surprised I did not get removed sooner. I did not even know I had gallstones until I went to ER on april27th at 4am as I woke up with pain under my ribs on right side that got worse and I begin vomiting. I had this attack a few weeks before but thought it was diverticulitis. Stayed home from work that time on a heating pad and was sore a fed days. Got it removed May 8th and all is good:) good luck to you !!
