I developed a hiatal hernia & reflux from the band - did you?
luluc replied to Cleo's Mom's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
cleo's mom - i'm just guessing but your band sounds as if it was just placed too high, can they reposition it? there have been a few on here that if they have slipped - a complete unfill for a few months fixed the problem - removal isn't always the answer. i too had an upper GI, endoscope prior to surgery - no hernia; had an endo 6 months out - again no hernia. by month 14 i did have one & that was repaired. i have crohns - so i need checked every 6 months or so. i'd be interested in your second opinion - -
i will agree w/that....plus he's busy filling out his brackets for march madness - he does have to multi tast.

HA! my brothers and i had one rule really growing up - don't pop off to mom or dad would pop you. needless to say, no one talked smack to mom - EVER... ps - LOVE 6'3 men (dh is one:wub:)......

have a great trip ceradad!!! yesterday - took the day off today - 1hr session w/trainer & i oficially got my a$$ kicked...lots of squats/lunges/glutes/hamstring exercises 30min treadmill - 7.5incline / 3.2speed *had my measurements & body fat taken - i have been hovering around the 130lb mark for 2 months, up and down it seems the same 4lbs & we (trainer and i) think i'm stabalized at where my body is going to be eating & exercising remaining the same....so i changed my signature* down 2 more inches, but i went up .5% in body fat - need to work on that ; still under 20%...but barely*:tt2:

Anyone notice Post Banders are a bit snobbish?

i'm glad you brought up lawn care because that was what i was referring to when i posted. our previous wkers moved so i've been on the hunt for wks- . i would like some help around the place (i'll do the majority of it in the tractor) it's the little things ..... when i asked my friend (the one w/the 2 boys) if they would be interested & ended up w/her landscapers number. i remember my brothers all did landscaping over the summers and made enough $$ to play with throughout the yr. my dad had a saying: "if your grown enough to have a social life needing money - your grown enough to go earn it"....

do you take ambien?

i don't have any children - but i do have a personal observation, didn't many of us do little jobs growing up to earn "spending" money? i know that i babysat & worked in a bakery early sunday mornings to get what spending money my parents told me to go earn. i have a lot of teenage boys out in the country & i can't get a single one of them to earn some coin around our ranch. my friend has 2 boys 14/15, and i asked her if they wanted to earn some money this summer.....she laughed and said they'd never do hard labor..... anyway - i see that w/some of my friends kids as well. ok - done w/my non parent view - ... off to walk a dog:)

where have you been?? haven't seen you there lately:wub: i just love tara. not sure what jillian meant in her comments to her; i just think her body is adjusting & plateaus happen - hell i've had a 2wk plateau here / there. i think i would like another trainer & 3 teams; both bob & jill have annoyed me this season.....a shake up wouldn't be a bad thing. tara / michael - my 2 favs....still!

diva - i have it on tivo but haven't watched yet....looking forward to it now. getting caught up on tivo time & haven't watched many movies but the 2 i downloaded to watch on the plane: zach & miri make a porn movie - cute / stupid / funny (taps rating) i give it a 3 milk - LOVED it, i give it a 4.5

good point. i think my body is just going to stabelize at 130lbs. i've gone lower & stayed for a while - but it just seems to like 130 shows up on the scale more often than not. good thing w/working out my clothes fit fine & body fat dropping - so i guess i should change my signature about now....:sneaky:

omg - please post the link once your done;

crap - i was so good yesterday, picked back up w/my trainer after a month off & then diner time came... yesterday- b- peach mango protein smoothie, slice ww toast w/organic p.butter s- small apple l- 3oz grilled chicken, .5c warm veggie pasta salad d- 2 slices of french toast (cin/raisin bread), 2 slices of bacon - lots of syrup.....this was one of my fav foods, and i hadn't had it once in the 17+ months banded & it was heaven! back to being good today ,

crap - lots of posting since i logged off around 7 yesterday & i LOVE it!!! * babygirl, i'm the lone dem in my house at times ( i would register my dogs if i could)...but DH is a great at letting me blabber on...LOL * SMS - SMS, SMS, SMS.........thanks i now have that beyonce song in my head "if you liked it , you shoulda put a ring on it" * have a question for you sms - were you w/BF when you were overweight? personally, i think that you have moved on both physically & emotionally and that relationship may have run it's course.. *ebony - congrats on the new smaller size! * brandy - like glouc said ; just post the link
-
while i might not share the same politics - i thought your response was spot on.
-
that's great beth.
-
oh hush - size 4 is way hard given that i have thighs/hips/butt on steroids.................to keep my ass off my thighs really is my only goal:) glouc - i might just stay put; unless you get a great deal.....could you go down a remodel route?
-
SO know how you feel. i didn't get ANY fill last wk when i went & i get why .... but it takes so much self control to stay under the 130lb mark. meaning if i want to eat ; i have to workout....there is no wiggle room at all on that front. i have still not gotten on the scale after a long wkend from mx....lots of guac & tequilla:ohmy:

i've agreed with this since day 1: * she needs to be spayed * dr violated every IVF protocol & should be on the hook for the expense and any/all future child care. oh, also while never being able to practice again unless it involves changing bed pans. **side note - i could give a rats A$$ if she only wanted "one" more. i've been down the IVF path - to implant 6 was criminal & i'd be OK w/criminal charges as well against good dr & make octo=snot clean bed pans for a living.** only fair since she has people to clean the crappy diapers of her brood. she should clean others - i found her PERFECT calling.
