Also wanted to say! I love your sweet baby girl! They grow up too fast though! Enjoy your precious gift!

I think you are doing great with 22 lbs lost! My fill was only 4 ccs and still no restriction. I really need to feel the restriction or I am afraid I will really start to go over board!
My second fill is on Sept I think it's the 7th. If they don't put at least 4 more I will cry! Don't want this surgery to be for not!
Wishing you all the best with your journey....hugs

Hi there....haven't been on in a while but wanted to let you know that I did get a fill on August 9. I had 3.5cc's and he added 3.5 more. I go back on August 30 for another one. I don't feel full, not enough protein I guess. Not losing as fast as I was prior to the fill. 22 lost preop 22 lost post op! How did your fill go? I'm looking forward to my second one...maybe it will be the one that tightens me up so I don't feel hungry! Take care!

What is your favorite non carbonated beverage?
Princesssdayzee replied to ladybug on a mission's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Had surgery July 1st and my last Diet Pepsi was June 30! I have not had a carbonated drink until yesterday, and I drank Diet Orange Sunkist and my tummy didn't care for it very much. Before I had the Sunkist I took a drink of Diet Pepsi and I really didn't care for it. As for other things I have had water, vita rain, and the crystal light packages as well. -
I had my surgery July 22, 2010
Princesssdayzee replied to craigmorganfan's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Today I found a tasty way to drink the protein shakes. I was looking through other LapBand websites and found some recipes from liquid to solid, well at the store I bought some sugar free instant pudding. I used my skim milk, ice, I only used half my protein mix (not sure why, maybe next time I will use a whole one) and then a spoon full of the instant pudding powder. I used Butterscotch, blended it all up and oh my it was yummy!!! I am staying under 800 calories a day, banded 7/1/2010 and have only lost 13lbs since surgery day. Any ideas??? -
What did you tell your employer & co-workers?
Princesssdayzee replied to sara31's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Well I said "hernia" as well.....to those that I didn't want to know the truth. Then a week out of surgery Karma kicked me in the side with an inguinal hernia....having surgery July 20 for that so within 3 weeks time I will have had 2 surgeries!!!! -

I have short term disability, however it got real scary this past week I have been on FMLA (didn't know for sure until yesterday) since June 30, surgery July 1 that is not the way it started though. I was going back to work July6, and did, and went back July 7 and then was diagnosed with an inguinal hernia. Unfortunately, HR had to take quite a few steps in determining if i was going to qualify, 1. I have worked at the same place for 3 years 2. I just transferred departments one month ago July 7 was my one month 3. Did not make it through 90 days probation. After all of this it was determined that YES I qualify for FMLA I have been there for enough time and YES I qualify for short term because I have been there for enough time and however being elective it wasn't like getting my boobs done or something that was not done because of a health risk. Short answer turned very long but yes, I have been told by HR that I will be covered. -

Princesssdayzee replied to sunshine diva's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I had a lot of things that changed my mind for me, unfortunately I started my journey over 3 years ago and now as of July 1, 2010 I am banded! Long journey to start a NEW journey but still not any regrets! Still on liquids....hate liquids....but I have started naming them...instead of chocolate protein shake it's a yummy chocolate/hot fudge shake with ice cream. Anyways....good luck with your journey sometimes it just takes a little more time to get to the place you need to be! -
Fellow lap-banders!! I need your HONEST opinion.
Princesssdayzee replied to Hottieinaroundbody's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Ok well I think everything everyone else does....you look amazing and you are one of the reasons other people look at the lap band...because you have done fabulous at it obviously. Here is my concern, "Weight Loss Center" is this for the lapband procedure or another type of weight loss program? I'm sorry if I missed where that was said but that is my concern. If it's to promote what an awesome job you have done heck yeah go for it, but.....like was said is this the point in your journey you want to advertise? -
Hi there! I was banded Thursday, came home after and slept most of the day. Friday slept on and off but then did too much and have paid all weekend. Are you finding things to eat? I did only Water until last night and then did a popsicle. Today I have had a popsicle and have been working on yogurt on and off all day. I wish you well...if you find anything that's wonderful right now let me know!! Pam

I feel so guilty I cheated on post-op diet
Princesssdayzee replied to skinnygal2010's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Alright....being banded tomorrow 07/01/2010....getting nervous I don't want to cheat, I am more afraid of what I can eat and feel like I won't eat or take my medication due to all the stuff I have been hearing. I am ready for surgery....I am ready for pain, and I will and I mean I WILL be sure to have pain meds because I know I just want to rest and heal tomorrow! Then after tomorrow I am afraid, I've heard you can't take capsule meds, or big pills, everything needs to be crushed and opened. It just is making me very nervous about missing a couple days of like my anti-depressant, it's time released so it can't be opened and taken. Ok so this is me being scared I guess....it's been a long time coming!! I can't believe it's already here, 12 hours and counting!!
