    Back at Work!

    Betty, I am an administrative secretary. I am fortunate that I do get to have this site on the computer in my office. I'm serious, ya'll! I really did have to come back early so I could log on! Is there a pill for this???? LOL!

    Back and Banded

    Welcome home, Melissa!!! I am post-op 5 days, and I promise that soreness goes away quickly. I slept on my tummy last nite! I got the gummy vites, but I am not taking them yet since I am still on liquids. Greg, you are such a mess, and I love you dearly!!!

    feel like crying

    I think you're doing great! Like Pam said, you are DOWN 46 pounds!!! Sounds to me like you just need to find your "sweet spot" with the fills, that's what we are all looking for. Have you explained that to your mom? It takes time to find it. Besides a slow weightloss is a healthier weightloss. I'm sorry you're feeling bad. A mother's criticism always cuts the deepest (and I have had many deep cuts)! Just keep your focus on a new healthier you. You never know, your mom may just decide to get healthy too!

    A distinctly female problem!

    ROFLMAO!!! Ya'll are too funny! Personally, I can't wait for my boobs to go. I would love to be so flat I didn't even have to wear a bra! Of course, DH might not like that....
  8. Hey, Dallas! Nice to meetcha! Looks like you're doing really well in your journey!

    I'm Home!!

    Thanks, Everyone!!!! Ya'll are all so sweet (even Greg!)! I have a new development. Last night and again this evening I have had some major gas. I thought all the gas pains I was reading about was just the gas they blow you up with for surgery, not this bloated, farting gas. I have chewed a whole box of gas-x and am still gassy. I think my stomach must be really swollen, because I just can't put much in there, not even much Water. Could this be the reason for all the gas?

    First taste of solid food

    Burping & Farting

    OMG!!!!! You guys!!!! I have literally laughed til I cried! And here I am only 3 days post-banding wondering where all this gas came from!

    Why don't I want them to see me?

    Alex, your gonna do great! Just remember that you only have to tell them as much as you want them to know. Even if they don't say anything, you know they're gonna be thinking, Wow she has done an awesome job. Bet that was hard to do, she must have some willpower!!!

    I'm Home!!

    I forgot to tell you guys the funniest part! After surgery, they put those lovely hose on me to prevent blood clots in my legs. But then they went even further and wrapped my feet in these inflatable footware things. Every few seconds one would inflate and clench my foot, then the other one would do the same thing. Felt like someone was at the foot of the bed grabbing my feet! Boy, if it weren't for the morphine I wouldn't have gotten any sleep at all!!! LOL!
  17. Whew!! I am so glad that's over with! I can only imagine how uncomfortable that must have been. Glad to hear you are doing fine now!

    I Love This Site!!!!

    I agree! This site is wonderful! After I found it, I stopped looking at all the others because they made me uncomfortable. Just about all my research was done right here, and I feel as if I have made many new and important friends, as well!
