    prayer requests for LBT'ers

    Please pray for my Dad. He called & asked me to take him to the doctor Monday for "gallbladder" problems. The doc sent him to the hospital for admission. Yesterday he had a heartcath in the am & had a triple bypass right after lunch. He is doing fine, but prayer is always welcome. Thanks everybody!

    Kinda Scared

    You shouldn't need to take time off. Maybe just the day that you get your fill. It's easy! It is a little painful, but not bad. Don't look at the needle.

    Thanks! Before surgery I had to do 3 weeks of clear sugar free liquids. It was awful, but i made it! It has been slow going for me, but at least I'm losing! Congrats on the 22 pounds Judy Ann! Since banding, or I guess I should say since I have gotten restriction, I just eat my protein first & stop when I get full. I make sure I get at least 70 grams of protein a day. Even if that means I have to drink a protein shake.

    Hi everybody! I'm in Conway. I was banded by Dr. Rex Luttrell in January of 2005. I have lost 80 lbs so far. Nice to meet ya'll!

    Do you tan?

    Thanks Puddin! Sounds exactly like what I want!

    Do you tan?

    I guess both. I would ultimately like to achieve a even tan that is just healthy looking. I don't want to bake. When I tan with the sun, I look kind of mottled. It seems to me like the people I know that use the beds have beautiful even tans. Does that make sense?

    Do you tan?

    I'm just now getting my "girlie urges" back! I'm even thinking of having a mani-pedi! I have only had one manicure in my lifetime too. I have always been a do-it-herselfer.

    Do you tan?

    Thank God for all of you! I think I'll be a pro when I finally do go in! LOL!

    Do you tan?

    Never! LOL! I haven't even really "layed out in the sun" for probably 12 or 13 years. What I have gotten in the past 12-13 is from swimming in my Mom's pool. I just don't have that kind of time. To get a good tan in the pool I would have to swim at least 2-3 times a week & Mom lives 45 minutes away. Have you ever heard "distance makes the heart grow fonder"? I love my Mom, but good grief! We would drive each other crazy!

    Do you tan?

    Thanks P-nut! It does help! I am a tanning bed/booth virgin. Hee-hee! I want all the facts before I dish out Lonnie's money. LOL!!

    Just banded...weight gain

    I did the same thing right after I was banded. You are normal! Your scales will begin to go the other way again. I was told that your bowels are empty from being on liquids & as soon as you begin to bulk your diet up with mushies & other goodies, your bowels retain more solid waste. Face it, it weighs more! I know when I was on the clear liquids I was losing like crazy, but whenever I would drink my meal, I would be in the bathroom in a matter of minutes. The liquids go straight through you. The other goodies don't. Hang in there! It'll happen!!

    Do you tan?

    I've thought of a couple more questions. What do ya'll prefer? The stand up booth things or the beds that you lie down in? And also, how many visits would it take for me to begin to tan & not just burn. I see so many people burnt & when you ask about it they reply, "Oh, I just tanned!" I do tan easily, I just haven't done it for so long due to my own head demons. I won't even go there. I'm sure you all know what I am referring to. I recently bought a bathing suit that I just love! I have officially retired my old bathing suit (the only one I ever found that fit me in the old days). And do ya'll go buck naked or do you wear a suit? My Mom's best friend has a tanning bed that I can use. So I guess that wouldn't really be a big deal. Will I even fit in a tanning bed or booth? I'm still 270 lbs (5'4").
