    Fallen off the wagon already

    Hang in there! Everyone has fallen off the wagon at least once. Just get back on and keep trucking. You can do it!

    count down!

    Hi blondbomb... good luck with your surgery next week. Mine is in August. Have a great holiday weekend.
  3. I cant totally relate. My surgery date is August 4th. I start my low carb diet on July 21st. But they told me to go ahead and be practicing chew, chew, chew. That's hard for me. I practically inhale my food sometimes. I have to make a conscience effort to chew slowly and thoroughly. I'm excited about surgery though, seems like an eternity till August!

    Hi Brooklyn Girl! I grew up in Austin, live in Round Rock now. How are you doing? It looks like you're 3 weeks out from surgery. My surgery is in August, I'm excited and ready to start this journey. Stay in touch! Kay p.s. who was your doctor?

    makingchanges4me... thanks for the note. We are on the same path definitely. I am scheduled for surgery on August 4 & 5 in San Antonio. I heard of a support group that meets monthly in north Austin in Walnut Creek area. I'm in Round Rock, what about you? Stay in touch!

    Does Banding Work if you're over 50?

    I love this topic too! I'm 55 and scheduled for surgery in August. I love reading these posts, so full of helpful info and experiences. Let's keep it going.
  13. Haven't had the WLS yet, but I have had gall bladder surgery. and the pain was a lot more than just achey. It was downright excruciating. So yours doesn't sound like gall bladder. maybe it's the port sight?
  14. Thank you, everyone, for taking the time to answer my question. I really appreciate it.

    Why is food ALWAYS involved?!

    Stay strong girl! It's tough when everybody celebrates everything with food!!! I know! Just remember that nothing tastes as good as being at a healthy weight feels.

    I was so angry I should have had smoke coming out of my ears.

    How awful for you. I hate unprofessional, poorly trained staff. I'm sorry you had to go thru that. Good for you for standing up for yourself and writing a letter.
