If it's too good to be true, then it usually is. If you notice on most of the commericals it always tells you "Results not typical" and that in itself should tell people not to believe it.

I am going crazy in the liquid stage!
Iluvharleys replied to HeatherJones's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Try broth, juice (apple or grape) popcicles, jello. I used to mix it up all day long and it kept me full along with the protein drink. -
Hi, New Here Banded Aug 06 (yes 06!)
Iluvharleys replied to NOCONTROL's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Welcome to LBT! Get the stuff that you are eating out of the house and don't buy it unless you can control how much you eat. If you make it 2 or 3 days of eating good, you will be back on track. Good Luck! -
Awwwww, Penni, he is beautiful!

Congrats to you! We have had a few band babies here, just do a search and you'll find the threads! Good Luck! -
Welcome to bandland. It gets better with each day. My port area stayed sore for a while too.

Welcome to bandland! Just keep sipping, a little bit at a time and you'll manage to get them in.

I use it all the time, and I love it. I can't tell I have any makeup on and I love not feeling it.

Bummed out, had to cancel surgery
Iluvharleys replied to ParaGirl's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Sorry to hear that, just remember "good things come to those who wait," so hopefully your day will come soon. Good Luck! -
Good Morning Y'all! Company all day again yesterday! All I wanted was to go lay down and rest but I had to cook so that was out of the question. I cleaned house then went out and pulled a lot of weeds in the garden, cleaned up the pool area, did the laundry, and then though it was time to rest. It just didn't happen. I love company don't get me wrong, but I need some rest between the company. Oh well, some days we want more and don't get it! Cindy - Happy Bandiversary! Yes, I remember all the times I worried when I took a bite of food and if it did't want to go down. I worried if I didn't lose a pound, or if I took a bite of something I didn't think I should have. I love it that we can finally relax and enjoy our lives. You have done a great job with your band, I'm proud of you and you should be very proud too! Mandy - No, I didn't realize you actually did the work. How cool! Eileen - Yeah, get some prilosec and take it. It might help to do some liquids for a while too. Hope you feel better soon, and no fills for a while! Listen to mom! Patty - Have fun on the trip to your Mom's, you are doing great with your band too! Hello to all of you that haven't posted, get your bunns back here so we can chat!

Penni - I was just thinking about you the other day wondering how you were doing. I'm glad you are doing well. That GS of your is beautiful!

Iluvharleys replied to cherokeewolf18's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Good Luck Bill, we'll see you in bandland! -
Wow! That is amazing! Great job! You should be very proud of yourself!

Hello Y'all! Well, we have more rain in the forcast for this afternoon. I think it is supposed to rain every day. We sure aren't use to this kind of weather down here. I need some sun! I cam home from work Thursday afternoon with a touch of the flu, missed Friday too. Today I am a little weak, but feeling much better. Eileen - Glad to see you this morning. Gosh, I miss your cute posts! How do you like the new job now? Yeah, it has been a year of hell for my tootsies and I wish they would quit getting in the way. Nothing like hobbling on two bad feet, you would think I was 105 years old when I get up! It is getting better though, and I will be glad when I can wear a shoe on it. I have to wear sandles that the back is out of right now, and that isn't the best shoe for my other foot. Purple is one of my favorite colors too! Mandy - Sounds like you had a fun day even though it was busy. It must be interesting to watch that kind of stuff being done. Patty - From your ticker, it looks like you are doing great with your band. Keep up the good work! I need to get out in the pool and get my exercising done before it rains. I missed two days already with being sick and I need to get back on track before I quit all together again. It's overcast and yucky looking though so I don't feel like doing it right now. They said noon showers, and since it is noon already I guess I might as well accept it's coming soon. Catch you later girls!

Bad news from my doctor
Iluvharleys replied to cookielover's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've lost 92 pounds with the Lapband and there are a whole lot more on here that have lost more than that. I think you doctor must lean towards the gastric bypass. -
Newby From H-town Houston that is!
Iluvharleys replied to Cypanther's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Welcome to LBT, and good luck with your surgery tomorrow. Don't forget to stop by and let us know how everything went. -
From one Texan to another, welcome to LBT! Good Luck with your journey!

How will I do looong business dinners?
Iluvharleys replied to NewCC's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Just act normal, push your food around on your plate a lot and people won't even notice that you aren't eating much. -
Greetings from Las Vegas!

On my 2nd fill and still can eat almost anything?
Iluvharleys replied to Marin Connie's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It took me 5 fills before I got a lot of restriction. It's different for everyone, some people don't need a fill at all, while others take a lot. I usually get tighter after 3 weeks too! -
Good Morning Y'all! No rain in a few days, but I think it is going to return the latter part of the week. By then we'll need some, heck we even need some today, the yards are dry already. Mandy - You sound like you are really busy! That closet sounds great! You can come and do mine now! Kat - Glad you didn't have to do it all yesterday, that is tough work to do. Your trailer sounds great! Awww, how great your DH was for saving that dog! How was the ride? Cindy - Sorry about Annie, but sometimes we just have to do what is best for our furry friends and it sounded like he needed to be kind to. Sherry - Girl how are you doing? Hope the unfill is doing the trick with you. Chrispy - How is the new guy? Hope he treats you special! Well, to make a long story short, I was outside getting the hummingbird feeder and bringing it in to change the Water. I opened the door and started in (hands full) and before I got in the house the door came back on my heal and tore up my heal pretty bad. I had blood from the front door to the kitchen, and had trouble getting it stopped. That was 2 weeks ago and I still can't wear a shoe on it. It turned my foot from the front of the ankle to the back black and blue too. Just one of those freak accidents we go through all the time. Yikes, it is almost 6 and I haven't gotten in the shower yet! Catch you all later!
