Good Luck to you, keep us posted on your journey!

Welcome to bandland, it's gets better every day!

We still have a few that haven't checked in yet, I am anxious to see the grand total! I get goose bumps when I see this!

Thoughts and prayers being sent!

"Happy Birthday to you too! I hope it's a great one!

I have deleted my picture and my private information, so now it doesn't matter.

Welcome to bandland!

"Happy Birthday" May all your wishes come true!

Great job Lisa and Denise!

Gosh, this might be easier if we post a new thread for it each day. I have to keep looking to go back to last night to post my dinner. Friday February 18 Breakfast: One egg Lunch: Fish Crab cake Couple of Fries No dinner, still full.

You can delete your telephone number yourself, I did it a long time ago.

If we can't get something done about this, I am definately deleting my picture! I don't need problems from pictures being posted all over. I already deleted the name of town I am from, I just don't think that is the safest thing to have all that info and a picture to boot.

Great NSV Kim! Yes, I do the same thing too. I fact I had some Jeans I bought before losing weight (I found them in my closet while throwing out the big stuff) and took them back to the store. I traded them for the next size down, so I would have a pair to wear when the ones I am wearing are too big. I put them on to see how long before I fit into them, and they already fit. You DH sounds like a real sweety!

I was wondering yesterday about him, thinking he would be here to join the weight loss thread! Hope everything is going o.k. for you Ryan!

I haven't tried any soft drinks since banding, I really don't miss them at all. I do miss a good cold beer once in a while though, but I haven't tried that either.

Good Luck in whatever you decide to do. I have heard that this is a very painful surgery, so I know it will be a hard decision for you to make.

Lauren - I doubt you have harmed your band, especially if you really chewed everything really good, however it really is best to follow your doctors rules. If you have any problems, I would contact your doctor, but if not, then try to stick as close to the orders your doctor gave to you. It is really important to let your band anchor itself. How long before you move to solids? My doctor put me on solids at 4 weeks. Every doctor is different though, so try to stay as close as you can to his instructions.

Donali - I just love reading your posts. I always learn so much from them. You certainly are a good writer.

I'm soory about your erison too! Like Vera said, I would definately report it so they can keep records. Please let us know how things go.

Try some of the new pouches they have out, they are flavored and are pretty good, even straight out of the pouch! Regular tuna I add onion, sweet pickle relish, and mayo. Marie, that sounds good too!

Good Luck with your testing. Please keep us posted on your progress.

Glad to hear you are doing better!

Good Luck with your surgery, please keep us posted on how you are doing.

Estella - I am so sorry you are going through all this. I can't add much more than what was already said. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
