Glad you had a good time. Cannot wait till I get to goal.I seem to be stuck at 190 for now.Any suggestions??? Linda

I have a container of fishing worms in the fridge in the garage.Sometimes he keeps catapillars out there to.They go to sleep when you put them in cold and wake up when you take them out.

Wow That is awsome. I love to cruise. Maybe we can all get together for a LBT cruise that you will be speaking on.

Mine is covered because my surgery was covered . I got it a five weeks.If you are not losing or you are hungry more often.He ask me to eat a lean Q and tell me how much I could eat. I could eat all and 1/2 another at least.

Three weeks out add I started passing blood in my urine. I never have been a big Water drinker.I was not getting enough in and I have a kidney infection.I am taking antibiotics and I started drinking more water, cranberry juice and fruit 20.I lost five more pounds because of the water. I will get the water in from now on.Im diabetic and do not want to have kidney problems .I like my kidneys and want to keep them. DRINK< DRINK AND DRINK SOME MORE

I take ambertose, biotin and im going to get me some of that nioxon shampoo. I do not have that much hair to lose and the ambertose helped it grow back thicker last time.

So sorry to hear this but never give up.My first husband was diagnosed with the same thing and I only had a period every three to six months and very diabetic.We were told no children possible. Miss impossible is graduating in the fall and starting college next year Never give up anything is possible.Although sadly Richard and I divorced through no fault of my own. I remarried a man that has four children.Now she has brothers and sisters.I pray that you will be blessed. Linda

I had my first fill today. I forgot to ask how much he put in.But he said I did not need much and I did not. I had 1/2 cup of potatoe soup juice and a 1/2 cup of sugarfree koolaide tonight and im tight.I am just getting over a kidney infection and I hope I can get liquids down tommorrow.My sugar is 100 and I am worried about taking my 10 units of insulin so I just took my pill. :phanvan

Thank you Alex it is great. I live in a small town with no support group.This is my Lapline.(lifeline)

I had the back pain for about two weeks.My weight was 218 before surgery im at 190 in a month. It was totally worth it.You will feel band for a fews days and the shoulder pain is the worst.But in another week or two you will be running circles and losing more weight quicker than you ever thought.The first month is the fastest weight loss.Wylers has a chicken herbs and spices cubes. They are good.Good luck my friend.

Mine is to get off my but walk and become a lot more active.Work the band and by next year be at 135lbs.

Two weeks after banding DH and I were out shopping. He was very hungry and wanted to try a new catfish resturant. We went in and he ordered a four piece catfish.I ask for a childs plate with no fries.The food comes. Here I sit with one tiny piece of grilled fish and a 1/2 cup of beans. He has this hugh plate pilled with fish, fries,hush puppies and a bowl of beans.I started turning red.I chewed him out for not ordering a baked potatoe that we could share.It is hard and I feel for you.But we know it will get better.

Sorry I missed you that was a post from the other day.

Thank you for posting that.

I do not have POCS but I am diabetic. Within the first two weeks of surgery I have dropped from 70 units of lantis to ten and dropped my Avandia (THANK GOD).Avandia makes it hard to lose weight It just puts weight on me. I take two Amaryl.

Good luck to you my friend.Hope you recover well.I talked to a girl that has lost 120 lbs on Stash green tea 6-7 glasses a day. Linda

I had major restriction till week four.I feel like I can eat more just have not.I wish my fill date would get here.I do not want to start regular food without it. Surgery Dec 1st Fill----------------------------Jan 16th

11 am Breakfast potatoes soup with bacon bits and cheese Protien shake 3 pm Lunch chicken salad Veg/ beef soup pureed Snack protien shake Dinner black eyed peas, diet v8 splash water, water, water

Drink lots of water fruit 2 0 low sugar juice. Green tea(helps with hunger feel yourself up with liquids. Make some vegtable beef soup puree it, chicken salad, refried beans with cheese,potatoe soup stuff that will stick with you.Then a hour later have a protien drink you should not be hungry. I do have issues with head hunger just used to nibbling and I am breaking that habit. I have lost almost 30lbs since December 1st. It is worth it. I can go to regular food after next week and I am sure I want to.This is not bad at all. Good luck Linda

Please pray for my daughter she is very ill. We spent all day at the hospital.She is throwing up (20 times)and passing out.First I gave her liquid medicine that I had It did not work then a suppository. It did not work and a trip to the doctor for a shot. It did not work. Up to the hospital for a IV.So far so good.They said it was really bad virus. Lysol the house and Pray that I do not get it. I worried I will mess up my band. Im still in my first month.I am wearing a face mask to.

Im so sorry.What a hard day for you and your little buddy.

I had surgery just before you Dec 1st.I am having trouble even getting 1000 calories a day in.I feel stuffed al day.Protien shakes fill me up the most.Do you have a support group in you area?I am learning that head hunger is a big issue for some people.I was a nervous nibbler.If I start having problems I will seek couseling so I do not go back to old eating habits after the mushy stage.Right now I cannot eat that much so I hope it stays that way.Good luck to you.

Got mine too.Thank's for telling us about this.

I would wait too.That is alot of money.Why do you think you will not get approved?

I was banded Dec 1st. It was a very easy surgery and I have lost 25 lbs. I am diabetic and it has lowered my insulin to ten units, My blood pressure it great.It will add years to your life.I would have it to prevent future problems.My daughter is 18 and she is having it . Because she is at risk to get diabeties.She weighs about 250.
