Good luck to you both!!! It's wonderful that you are planning to do this together!
-
I wish I had know how hungry I would be after the surgery. I wish I had known it would take 4 fills to get restriction. I wish I had known that a radiologist can miss the port while doing a fill under flouro!!!
-
Teresa, I had some foam when I was filled too tight. Yuck! As soon as I got the unfill, it went away. Are you filled pretty tight?
-
Congratulations!!! Saggy/baggy clothes rock!
-
Ryan, I'm so sorry to hear Patty is not doing well. I'm keeping you both in my prayers.
-
Oh, Nancy! I just now saw this thread and I am so sorry about Niko. I had to go through the same thing just a few months ago. I hope your grief turns to fond memories for you very soon.

OK, my dh gave me another nickname other than blossom and everyone who hears it always thinks it's sexual, but it's not! It's Spanky. After everyone else in the world began calling me blossom, I guess he needed a new special nickname for me. So one day, after watching an old re-run of the Little Rascals he decided to name me Spanky because I am a bossy little rascal, LOL!!! Sometimes he calls me Spank for short.

Good luck, Vera. Hope all goes well and you have an easy recovery!!!
-
Greg, I'm sorry for your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
-
Best of luck to you, Corgi! You have already accomplished so much! Greg, hope your daughter continues to get better.
-
Greg, thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and the beautiful website. You are such an inspirational person and I'm glad I "know" you. Kathy, I'm sorry to hear of your loss. Your Nana sounds like she was a sweet and wonderful lady.

faith, if you do a search on the internet for medical alert jewelry you will find lots of sites that sell those. -
I know that we are not supposed to take NSAIDS. There is a post on here somewhere with lots of info on it. Do a search on NSAIDS.

Yikes! I had the surgi tapes and was able to take them all off after only a few days. Everything was all scarred over within a couple of weeks. I think you should call your dr if you have pus!

I have to ask about Cancun...
blossom replied to Sharon T - PA's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
Hey, if I was going to Mex. for the surgery Cancun would be my first choice! AND I would make a point of going back for ALL my fills, LOL! -
Bobby, I got half a cc out this morning. What a relief!!!
-
Thanks, Betty! I guess I will find out in a couple of days how the hard protien goes down. I'm on liquids for 2 days.
-
Just got back from getting an unfill. He took out a half cc. I think that was too much because I can guzzle water now.
-
WoooHoo!!!! Anybody that can put panty hose on without a struggle is a hero in my book!
-
What is the first consultation like?
blossom replied to Tropicana's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Tropicana, I believe backpain was one of the comorbidities my dr submitted to my insurance. As for documenting, even if you weren't medically supervised, write down every diet you ever tried and include the results of loss and gain. Its worth a try anyway. -
Duh!!!! It just occurred to me that I am due for my period. Think I should give it just a little longer? I would really hate to have gotten an unfill only to have it too loose after my period. It's taken me forever to get any restriction! (I really should keep better track of my monthly!)
-
Penni, you're doing such a great job!!!
-
Yippeeee!!!!! What fun! Hope you have a wonderful time.
-
ROFLMAO!!!! Lisa, I swear you can make ANYTHING hysterically funny!

Well, blossom was a nickname my dh gave me years ago. It stuck! So when I joined gardenweb and then an online gardening club I just used that old nickname. It got even more stuck!!! Many, many people know me only as blossom. I answer to it just as naturally as I answer to my real name.
