    stuck food usually only at dinner

    I find that I cant eat a large meal at dinner. I feel so full and it seems like I only ate a few bites. I dont have this in the mornign or afternoon. Very weird feeling. I think I am going to do the same with just Protein shake at night and see if it gets better. Let me know how crock pot juicier meat does for you.

    Back pain

    Yes I have been having back pain. I am almost 3 weeks post op. I think because of the abdominal pain I must have been compensating and not standing straight at all times. I am using a heating pad and it seems to help. Standing too long in the kitchen or folding laundry is the worst.
  3. I started with chewable Biotin. I would take 2 a day and then when you start seeing it improve then go down to 1 a day. I started taking it 3 months before surgery for this very reason. My hair was already thin and nails never grew - but after 90 days of this my nails are long and strong and my hair is so much fuller. Hopefully in the 90 days after surgery it wont be to badly affected. However, starting it now will help. It was amazing the changes in just 90 days of taking it. Truly helps. Congrads on the weight loss. Keep up the good work. Dont let this get you down....Its just a stage and it will pass.
  4. I just had surgery Aug. 7th. I had the lap band removed a year ago. I am down 21 lbs but different from lap band. With the lap band I was hungry all the time. I dont find I am hungry now and have to remind myself to eat. Im still on pureed stage however I have only had issues with milk. I feel full when I eat - not like lapband and then too full and puke. I hear weight comes off slower with the revision. Hang in there. Any weight loss is better than NONE.

    Surgery Aug 7th

    Oh great! Yes lets stay in touch. Good Look to you....
  6. I cant believe I finally made it to this point. I had lapband removed a year ago and doing the conversion on Thursday next week! Scared and excited. Not sure what to expect. Any conversions out there that had to wait a year to do it again? How was the recovery?
  7. Surgery is 6 days away!!! Scheduled for Aug 7th and scared and excited all at once. My lap band was removed a year ago. I cant believe it is finally here!
