Happy Birthday Shelly! Hope you have a great one!
-
Welcome Terri - Please browse through some of the older posts as well as the new ones, you will find lots of valuable information. Please keep us posted on your date!
-
I always come on here and post, balace my checkbook, browse on the computer, pay bills, or find a book to glance through. Although usually there isn't any spare time for me! Sometimes I make out a grocery list so that I have something in my hand at the store.
-
Welcome Kimberly! You are doing a great job with your band. I'm glad you got your infection under control.
-
Janie - I have had fills and I can still drink water pretty fast too. Don't be afraid!
-
Jen, I can't advise you since I don't have the same band, but I can tell you that some people need more fills to get to the spot that they don't hungry as much. Hang in there, you'll get there.

Hair Loss!!! - Is Protein the only solution???
Iluvharleys replied to NancySmiles's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
My Doctor told me Protein has nothing to do with it, it is hormones! -
Missy you are in the healing stage, and without a fill you are wide open. Any weight you lose during this phase is a bonus. When you get your first fill, you will start losing.
-
Like everyone else said, it is very normal to be nervous! You will be in and out of surgery before you know it! Good Luck to you and please let us know how your surgery went.
-
With thoughts like that I know you are healing up!
-
I ate it the day of surgery, they served it to me for supper that night. I only had a couple of bites though.
-
My Doctor wouldn't let me even take a bath for 6 weeks! Showers only!

One port, two ports, three ports, four....

It's looking really good, no redness or anything. I think it's going to heal up good this time. -
Is the price of LB coming down?
Iluvharleys replied to Chicagoboy's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I think some of the Doctors are starting to offer a package deal to keep people from going to Mexico. I also heard that the band itself has increased in price and some of the Doctors raised prices this year. I don't know for sure, but I would suggest you do some research and find out, each doctor charges different prices. -
Kevin - If your doctor told you that you could eat till midnight, then you should be able to. I had to do liquids the day before with nothing after midnight. Some doctors let you eat anything you want to. I would just follow what my doctor told me to do. Good Luck with your surgery and post and let us know how you did when you are able.

What a great post, I would say you are definately living with the band. Please post more often, you certainly are an inspiration.

What kind of directions did your doctor give to you? Each doctor has their own rules to follow. I would definately follow what my Doctor told me to do.
-
Congradulations to you! What an accomplishment! You should be very, very proud of yourself! I am doing the "happy dance" for you! :banana :banana :banana
-
I'm glad it went well for you Trish, now you are one step closer to banding.
-
You are crazy! But you did make me laugh, and everyone needs to laugh at least once a day if not a whole lot more! Although my boss might begin to worry about me sitting up here laughing all the time. :clap:
-
Greg - I am getting worried about you!
-
Spiegel is the doctor with the problems. Spivak is a great doctor from everything I have heard.

If it's a girl's thread, you can always find Greg! That is a cute one Greg :clap: :clap:
