:welcomeB: Nice to meet you!

I'm in Arkansas so I can't help with the doctors. Sorry! :welcomeB: Nice to meet you!

:welcomeB: Congrats on your date! We are almost band sisters. My 1 year anniversary in Janaury 26. Hope you have a speedy recovery!

:welcomeB: Glad you found us! Good luck to you!

:whoo: :whoo: :whoo: :whoo: :whoo: Good Luck!!!!

Welcome! What kind of problems?

Welcome back! Congrats on the weight loss!!

I'm all for plastic surgery! But personally, I wouldn't want to go through the recovery of a full body lift. I don't even want to imagine it! But, that is a personal choice for everyone to make. If you think you can handle the recovery, then you have my respect!! LOL

Wow! Congrats! Let us know when you get your date!!

:doh: Ouch! Hope your feeling better! :hug:

I was the second band my surgeon had done. The first was a couple of hours before me. Yes! I am very happy with my band & my surgeon!

:) WTG!! You look great!

:welcomeB: :wow2: 86 lbs! :welldone2: You're doing an awesome job!!

For those of us who have suffered from rashes, yeast, infections & other problems in our skinfolds, I have a product i would like to share with you. It is made by Burt's Bees. It's called "Baby Bee Skin Cream". It comes in a jar & it is the best thing I have ever found. I even had a patient in the nursing home I was working in who suffered with a raw bottom all the time & would cry. I asked around & she had been suffering with it for a couple of years. I told her about this product & she had her sister buy some for her & after 2 days her bottom was healed! It even works for "babboon butt" as my husband calls it! LOL!! Just thought I would share. I know this is a topic that is avoided at all costs, but there's no reason to suffer!! :biggrin1:

Yep! it's good!

:hug: I had this problem starting out myself. Like the others said, Don't let yourself get too hungry between meals. Have snacks! If you get too hungry, you will try to inhale your food!! It'll be alright. You're just learning the hard way.
