Phyl: Wow, onederland, how wonderful. You go girl. Ok, here's my problem. I haven't lost any weight since April. I've had to have my band unfilled once, I've had a upper endoscopy done and then the ol gallbladder out in August. I feel like I've lost my way and I do not know how to get back on track. Any words of wisdom, Phyl and Janet? -

Hey 50 & over gang We have a new spot

Greetings, The surgery went well. I do feel much better now that I don't have the GB pain. He said I also had a pretty severe adhesion wrapped around my stomach and my port tubing that he removed. My stomach is sore and extremely swollen unlike when I had the band done. I have gained nearly 10lbs but I'm thinking that is the swollen abdomin and extra fluid. So, I'm not to worried yet. I'm gonna give it a couple of weeks to sort itself out. Trying to figure out how much walking I should or can do at this point. Joann: I didn't realize you were in Korea again. It is fun when you have a daughter you like to spend time with. My girls and I love to do things together or just spend time with each other talking. Enjoy your time there, it will come to a close all to soon. Lynn: Not sure I could undergo all that surgery! I admire your courage. -

Thank you all for your words of encouragement! Great I remember you having the GB out right after your banding. I know it's a lot easier now to have it out then when you had yours out Janet. Lynn, I've heard the tummy tuck is like really a hard recovery. My sister in law had one back in December and she was cut from hip to hip. It took her a long time to get goin again. Plus you had more then one procedure done, right? I am glad you are doing well and happy with the results. Well, signing off so I can retire my GB once and for all. Goodbye Mr. GB, you have served me well for 56 years and now it time for us to go our separate ways. -

Well, I am having my gallbladder removed on Friday. I've been really having a lot of pain lately so it's time to split up with my GB and say goodbye. Keep me in your prayers on Friday -
Well my problem has actually turned out to be gallstones. I have started to be refilled. I may be having the ol gallbladder out this week or next. Thanks for caring.
-
Hey Susan! Soooo sorry you have been having probs.. Did you get a "refill"? I assume you had to have it unfilled because of your other health issues? Hope they have cleared up!

Can you wear these things under your clothing?

Hello to all my 50's friends and welcome to all the new friends. May, you'll do fine. Just keep coming to this site and reading and posting. I found this to be great support. I've lost 60 lbs over the past year. Not losing for the past few months. Hope to get started again. Katy: So good to hear from you! I don't know why but I think of you often and whisper a prayer for you. I am sorry to hear of your issues with your weight, but your life is worth the small gain. I'll be praying for you next thursday as you have your shoulder operated on. Please try and let us know how you're doing after the surgery. Remember the last time, we were searching all over for you? My email address is: susanpowell1953@yahoo.com please send me a personal email with your address so i can keep in touch with you. God's Blessings -
Greetings to all my lovely June Bugs! You all are really doing great. I've had a few problems. Had to have band unfilled, then found out I have kidney and gall stones. Just passed a kidney stone the other day so in the respect I'm feeling better. Gallbladder doesn't seem to be bothering me to much. I'm gonna wait and see what happens before I have the gallbladder taken out. I'm in the process of getting my band refilled. I have a small band that only holds 4 cc of fluid. I need to excercise but honestly,after a year, I just can't wrap my head around excersing. I'd rather have someone pull my teeth out without novacaine or have my toenails pulled off with no pain meds then excercise. What is my problem? You all keep up the great work.

Congrats on your surgery. i was banded a year ago, if you have any questions, contact me. I used Dr. Moein and he is wonderful. -
Hello: I have a question. I was banded in June 08. I have done really well with losing weight. I've lost 65 lbs. I am now to the weight I have carried for more than 10 years, which is still 35 lbs more then I should weigh. Since April I have not lost weight and I have begun to eat foods that I have not had for a year. Recently, I think I figured out that for some reason I am afraid to go to a normal weight which I have not been at for the past 25 years. I am 56. Does this make sense?
