    No Bread?????

    my doc told me bread would be fine but for me personally it is not-it causes such a problem its not worth it-it seems to act as a plug and just doesnt go thru-sad too since I LOVE fresh bread-used my bread machine every week at least 1x but now Im going to just make them suffer with me-lol.

    Today is my first fill

    Im jealous youve lost so many inches-I havent lost any that I know of-have also only lost 20 pounds-am hoping this fill will be the nudge to kick it in gear
  18. Im excited cause I was banded 4/27 and can basicly eat anything as long as I chew which I had trouble doing but am learning.Anyway I hope this causes some restriction since Ive only lost 16 pounds and all that was done in the first 10 days. Few questions....does it hurt?am I not supposed to eat beforehand?will i know immediately if fill "took"?

    Today is my first fill

    I was banded in tijuana-I have a 10 Inamed and I got my fill here in Houston for $200-I am not about to go to Tijuana for fills-the flight and such would be way more than $200 plus you still have to pay the $70 they say they are free but they arent-you have to pay lab fee or whatever it is-he explains this to you when I had the consulatation right b4 surgery.

    Today is my first fill

    thanks everyone-I do feel restriction I guess-pretty much everythign I eat today gets stuck and I cough it back up but Im sure it was the bread now-I had half sanwich for lunch-came back up mostly then had some paneras soup and bread for dinner-most came back up-I haaaaaaaaaate nnot being able to have bread-Im a bread girl-love fresh bread.sigh

    Some questions about "the girls"

    mine are 46dd right now and it sucks but they are 38dd when Im not overweight so was going to have them reduced after I lose the weight my gyno will mark it off as a medical necessity because of the back problems it cause but i have to lose 50 pounds first but then she can write it off and insurance will cover it.
