    LapBand-friendly fast food (don't judge me!)

    betty_s replied to JustWatchMe's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums

    I love chipotle (burrito bowl, no rice) and jimmy johns (unwich). I also have gone to which wich, but thats not as fast. When I'm in a pinch i've done grill chicken wrap from Sonic & just ate the chicken. I've also had a whopper from burger king, but that was before any fills. Now i have problems with burger patties.

    be patient i was in a lotttt of pain where my port was stitched to my stomach for about a week. I didnt feel back to normal until about 2-2.5 weeks. I ended up taking all my pains meds, and my doctor told me i could take ibuprofen pm at night to help me sleep better instead of writing me a new prescription.

    i always ask for their rice free rolls. most places have 1 or 2. i still can only get 2-3 pieces down, but get kind of uncomfortable. i've only tried it twice.

    i had a vitamin D prescription, so my D levels should be pretty good right now.. maybe i need to get it rechecked!
  42. betty_s
    thats the thing, i was active before. i had awful back pain before, because my stomach was too big, but now its my collarbones that ache. the more i lose the more it hurts! and i actually cut back the last two weeks on the gym because life has gotten in the way..
  43. betty_s
    so i know this may sound weird, but the more weight i lose, the more my bones ACHE! i'm down 57 lbs and my collarbones KILL ME, some days more than other. i was wondering if anyone else dealt with an issue like this? i may mention it at my next doctors appt in october.
