We do a Christmas breakfast, or brunch rather, with my mom and dad, sisters and their husbands, and neices and nephews every year too. We always make a sausage breakfast casserole and a sausage cream cheese casserole. This year I was only able to eat a few bites of each. It felt so good not to have to worry about every single thing that I put into my mouth. Definitely a lot less stress this year!

I agree. Sometimes I think I have eaten a lot (simply because it takes so long to eat) but if I think back and retrack everything I ate, it is so much less than what I would have consumed pre-band. I'm glad everything went well for you this year!

Good luck with your surgery today, you will be in my prayers!

Hi Elisa and welcome to LBT! Congratulations on your surgery. How are you doing since being banded?

I'm glad things are getting better and I hope you recover from this soon. I'm so sorry you didn't get to see your family for Christmas. Keep us posted on your progress and hope you get better soon. ((HUGS))

Wow, your arms look so thin and toned! It looks like you are healing very well. Thank you for sharing your PS journey!

The twins look great! You are such a trooper. Hopefully one day, my twins will look good again. lol

Dear Son (22 months old), Thank you so much for the best Christmas gift ever! This morning, as I watched you play with all your new toys, you took the time to walk over to me, and tell me those sweet words for the first time, "I love you, mama". I know you didn't understand why I started to cry, but I assure you, it was because I was so happy. I tell you that I love you all the time and it felt so good to hear you say it. You are my life, and I love you so much more than you will ever know. Love Always, Mama

Toooo cute!

whooohoooo! Go for it, can't wait to hear how it goes!

That's great. Keep up the good work!

Hope you have a safe and happy holiday. Merry Christmas, everyone!

Good luck with your surgery. Merry Christmas!

Hi Renee! It's nice to meet you. I had a hard time getting prego, but now I have a son that is 22 months old. I also did a low carb diet and lost about 50lbs, I think that really helped me . I hope the side effects of PCOS get better for all of us as we lose weight. You're doing great, thanks for sharing your story.

Glad to see you back. Today was my first day back on solids and I do feel some restriction. I just hope it lasts. Believe me, once you get decent restriction, it will get better. Until then, just do the best you can. I'll be happy just not to gain at this time of year.

Merry Christmas to you too!

Welcome Diana! Yes, this time of year is especially hard for us all. Hang in there, the holidays will be over before ya know it. Welcome to the site and good luck to you.

Welcome PhotoEgor! Congratulation to you and your wife. I would say, just keep researching. I don't know what all you have search for on this site, but read the Lap Band Complications forum and keep reading as much information as possible. Good luck to you and your wife. God Bless!

HaHaHaHa! :spit: Not a all offended, I thought they were hilarious. I got a huge laugh! The toilet ones were a little creepy!

I just got my 3rd fill yesterday! I have 5cc in my 10cc band. My fill doctor only put 1cc in my band this time, since Christmas is so close, she didn't want to overfill and run the chance of my having problems during Christmas. Right now, I don't feel a difference, but I'm still on liquids for another 2 days. My first fill was awful, it hurt so bad. It took a while for her to get it, but my last two fills have been great, I didn't feel a thing. I don't think she put enough of the deadening agent in me the first time. Ask them to bump it up?

I'm not klpdbl anymore. My new name is georgia girl. 51 lbs down!

I believe my PCOS came from my fathers side of the family too. Thanks for the info about Soulcysters, I'll have to check it out. I also can lose pretty fast if I exercise. I've "kind of" been following the Sugar Busters Diet. I did this pre-op and have great success with it.

Julie You are so amazing! I can't believe you are feeling well enough to post. You are my hero. I'm so glad everything went well. Good luck and take it easy.

It wouldn't bother me if Kim wasn't on it either. IMO, it seemed like she cared more about her red team being in the finale than she did about their actual health.
