Hmm maybe it was them dang Mint M&Ms my daughter brought home and I found and ate. They taste just like thin mint girl scout Cookies. I have been really really good about NOT cheating for 6 months. so I wont beat myself up over this slip up. They sure were yummy. I know my blood sugar didn't like them.... Ok back on track now..... Good luck everyone!!!

Peter, Sorry for your loss!!!

I agree!!! You ladies are a riot!!! :cursing::thumbup:

I had just moved to a new town when I started my lap band journey and I had to find a new PCP. I thought I wouldn't like the one recomended to me as he was a male and I had a female for about 25 years. BUT he has been just awsome.!!! So yep maybe a new PCP is in order for you also. The most important thing is for you to mmake sure all is ok before this surgery!!!

I was banded 6 months ago. The only people I have told are my husband and 3 daughters, and 1 friend. That's it no one on e3ither side of the family knows. What they do know is I am very strict with my portions and what I eat. I eat very healthy these days, I also exercise each and every day no matter what, even if I am at thier house for the weekend I incorporate exercise there. so Yes it is possible to not tell anyone.

WOW, I would think your PCP would want to make sure everythings ok with you before this surgery, Ande as Becky stated above makes sure your tickers all good for your marathon running. I would go and talk to her again and maybe she will change her mind.

Purple, Congratulations!!!

Sending you good thoughts and wishes from California Kat!!!

I have lost a 1/2 shoe size. And I love love love shoes.

Thanks Holly. Also my fills cost $350.00 each. So if I can do this without having to get too many fills then thats more money in the pot for a Tummy Tuck down the road. :-D Lord knows I am gonna need one and maybe a Breast Lift. My poor girls are sure deflating and heading down, down down.

David Cook!! David Cook! David Cook!! Oh yeah I vote for David Cook to win!! I David A, but I think he's too young. Just my 2 cents.

I have noticed I can eat more lately then I should. I know that I could use a fill, But I am waiting till I come back from my 2 week vacation as I am really afraid to be too tight in Cancun. I just don't want to chance having any problems. so I have really been trying to live by the rules I have learned these past 6 months and only eat the same small amounts I was stuck at a platue for a few weeks but the scale is moving down again. :-D I have a fill scheduled for June 30th. a few days after we come home from vacation. My last fill was Feb 26th. some days it is hard to resist the urges to eat the bad things, But then I remember why I did this and that I have lost over 60 lbs and down from a too tight size 20-22 to a getting loose 14. I love my band and I love that this tool is available for me to work with to better my life!!!

Holly, Your looking sensational!! You will lose those 3 pounds and then some with this fill!!! Keep up the great job!!!

Hopefully I am over my slump.

I agree. And since I haven't told anyone of my surgery except for DH and kids, it can sometimes get hard and make me want to fall off the band wagon. But then I come on here and chat with my LBT friends and it gives me a surge of willpower and I remember why I am doing this again. so thanks everyone for sharing this journey with me also.

I agree with you, I never thought I would be jealous of a rash either.:thumbdown:

I am going on a 2 weeks vacation to Cancun on June 13th. I will not be getting an unfill, BUT I did not get my fill last week like I was scheduled to. I still PB every so often and I really DONT want to have any problems in Cancun. I already have my fill scheduled for the day after we come home.

Anytime I eat one of hubbies fries I get stuck. Also non toasted bread, and lunch meat always gets me.

Mine was $200.00

We have both and I use the pool way more. :-D

MIne was an hour only. I don't think I could have sat there for 3 hours..... sheesh Call back and ask if she was serious.
