That sux...I hate when that happens. I am going to see dr. Black tomorrow...finally getting a slight unfil....Ive been averageing my calories and unless I drink a protein shake or eat something bad for me :thumbup: I aveage about 400-500 cal per day...no wonder Im losing so slowly these last few weeks.

Ive recently had reflux probs and I too gurgle...I called my doc bc my reflux was waking me up at night...when it getst that bad you're way too tight I am going monday for a slight unfil...I am going to suggest that we try just .25 bc last fill he only put .5 in...so maybe I just need half...but def dont ignore reflux call your doc!!

I have been wanting to go to the comedy club forever esp when Jef Dunham was there.

YAY!! Thanks for the spreadsheet :tongue_smilie:

Most doctors are guessing or going by the text books when it comes to doing fills/unfills every doc is DIFFERENT on what they like to do its all about how safe they wanna be or how agressive they are...this last fill I asked my doc to put i 2cc instread of just the one and he did and it has been perfect...he was only going to put in 1cc which I would have had to have another fill....Anyway, each person is different and we're the patients so if you wanna try only having .5cc taken out the talk with your doc and TOGETHER decide...they may be the professionals but youre the professional when it comes to your own body!!!!!!!!!!!!! But def go see your doc to get to the bottom of what is going on! Good luck to ya!

I only feel mine if I push on it. My doc put mine in the fattest part of my belly but Ive lost over 70lbs and still barely feel it...I can lie flat though and feel it...I wonder why yours is so close to your skin surface?

Absolutely!! No time to start preparing like the present!!! Here just add your stats to the sheet!! And good luck with your surgery!!!! http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=pfAYfZkr9NWgrhcvGlTxLCw

Thanks for the sheet!!!I put everyone's info in for so far!!! We've got a small group going....we need MORE!!!!!

GGGGGrrrr. JASON I dont wanna hear it...lol Saturday...I was up 4lbs for NO reason what the crap...now I'm back down but geezzzzz....I only have TWO lbs to go to reach my april fools challenge......I really dont know if I can lose 13 lbs in 6 weeks to meet this goal...Im thinking I should lower it some maybe to 200

They havent studied the band long enough to be able to tell ppl that it will outlast them! I think that is something the remains to be seen "how long it will really last" I'm only 26 and the idea of having to have another surgery to redo my band....not a fun thought...I hope it lasts a LONG LONG time though.

Yeah I am soooo glad mike didnt go home...I think though that they have forgotten how to play the game...felipe should have gone home...but thats just me. I know its about wt loss but it is also a game and if some of those weak players wanna stay longer they better start voting off the strong ones when they have the chance. I think Aubrey would have really done a lot better to stay on the ranch :tt1: Ive been dragging this week, working out yes but def dragging!

The hiccups for me are AWFUL! Its like they last forever and they hurt so bad!

YAY!!! Ok so I'll go ahead and post mine now. Name.............Start Lbs........Current..........Goal.......To Go crimsontide........296..............296............................... .. crzytchr............232..............232...............220...........1 2 jason r..............328..............328...............315...........13 kaninag............211...............211...............198...........13 Thats a big goal for me;) WE CAN DO IT!!!!

I'm gonna wait until after the april fools challenge is over b4 I enter my wt and goal

I dont know if anyone that comes to this thread is interested or not but under general discussion there are different challenges going on for ppl to make short term wt loss goals...I am only 2lbs away from meeting my goal for the April fools day challenge so I can say it has def helped me...anyhow we're starting up a new challenge called the donut day challenge...donut day is June 1st...so if you're interested join in!!!! heres the link: http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f17/donut-day-wt-loss-challenge-june1st-90554/#post1180211

HAHA, no it wasnt anyone on here. Just somebody that wasnt even banded yet at that time that I ran into....I use lemon juice a lot on salads...its sooo good but it doesnt matter I cant eat salads after this last fill!

So, I remember a few months ago somebody griped me out for eating salads...well I just went to lapbands website to see what all they've added and they've got recipes on there several with LETTUCE!!! For example: lettuce tacos, coleslaw, chinese ginger tofu salad....mmmmmm guess that the lapband site endorses salads in our diet :frown:

www.myfitnesspal.com :frown:

I bet that felt good!!!!

YAY!! We had fun...cant wait to go out on the boat....!!!

:success1:OK and on top of that it was like an EXTRA small booth too!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HAHA, thanks Im glad someone found it humorous...lol What do you think Jane you wanna start a Donut Day challenge when this one is over? I dont know about everyone else but this has been my first challenge and it has really made me push a little harder and watch what I eat a little better so it would be great if we could keep these going... only 2 lbs away!!

What about a Cinco de mayo challenge??? ah thats kinda close though....or memorial day challenge...oh June first is Donut day we could do a donut day challenge ;)LOL

Good luck to ya!! I hated waiting...I know my docs office was just as excited as I was when I got my approval bc it meant that I would stop calling asking if I was approved...lol I hope you all have a great meeting tomorrow...I wont be able to make it I have to take a test in the morning! Hopefully I will see you all next month :ohmy:
