    First Fill yesterday!

    I was so hungry too, but if you can hang on it will be worth it. Broth, broth, broth. That is what I ate. Good luck! Follow my lap band blog www.biscuitsandexcuses.blogspot.com

    body image

    I'm sure you look great. I understand what you mean though. The first time I lost weight (this is my 2nd attempt at the band) I would see a lady in a store and ask my mom "Am I bigger or smaller than her". I, like you could not get used to my new body and was still fat in my head. My neighbor told me one day "you have lost too much weight" , but at the time I weighed 20 pounds over what the doctor said I should. We all just have to get to a point where we feel good no matter what the scale says! Good luck with your journey! Follow my lap band blog www.biscuitsandexcuses.blogspot.com

    Considering the band...

    Thanks everyone . I have only had one carbonated drink in the last two months. I'm just struggling and thought I would ask.

    I think I have the stuck feeling.

    I cut all my pills in half just to be safe. That's an awful feeling. Good luck! Follow my lap band blog www.biscuitsandexcuses.blogspot.com

    What kind of eating disorder do you have?

    I am the same way. I never carry cash but when I do find my self with extra money I think. "what drive through should I go through" . We will always be recovering addicts. Good luck everyone! Follow my lap band blog www.biscuitsandexcuses.blogspot.com

    Will this help me?

    It is hard work. The lap band does about 50% of the work for you (in my opinion). With Gastric if you eat the wrong thing you get sick, with lap band you don't get sick. So you have to have the will power not to eat it on your own. I lost 70 lbs after I got the lap band. But then I started pushing it. I got brave and started trying new things. I learned tricks around the band so I could eat more. Well of course this only hurt me because I gained every bit of that weight back. I don't want to discourage you. The lap band is GREAT if you follow all the rules. I am starting my journey over now and I am doing it different this time. Good luck. check out my lap band blog http://biscuitsandexcuses.blogspot.com/

    What can I do ahead of time?

    I had a friend with the same problem. She talked to her doctor and told him that she had to have the surgery before the end of the year. She had her surgery with in a month. They want you to get the surgery so if they know that is the only way you can get it, then they might speed it up a little. Good Luck.

  16. No you will not stop having cravings but you won't need as much to satisfy your cravings. I think your skin should shrink back considering your age especially if you work out. I was only out of work 2 days. Good luck with your journey. Follow my lap band blog Www.biscuitsandexcuses.blogspot.com

  21. Great job. So happy for you.
  22. I don't think that is normal. That can be prevented by eating all your protien and stuff. My hair is just as thick as it has always been.
  23. Because we are recovering addicts. RUDE.
