I've gained 15 poinds in 6 months. It's a struggle. Sorry to hear you have gained weight but you can stick to your diet and do it.

I think, THINK Magees Nutritional Program has a lap band and a lap band and bastric combined support group that meets at Shadyside. I know that there is a combo support group meeting on the first Weds of the month at Magee. The meeting is at 7pm in room 12131. I'll look for my support group flier in my files when I am home later this evening. :thumbdown:

I asked the Dr about this when we met this week. I was told that they do not suggest smoking anything for at least a month because the body is healing from the inside out and smoking will delay healing.

I spoke with the doctor today about this and he said it was not something to be concerned about. He also said it can happen with GB. Has anyone else heard this?

Dress her up in a Huckabee sweater- It will scare people away from your property! I have a black lab/pit bull mix. She looks frightening because she is so big and black- but the only damage she can do to someone is licking them to death. She meets every stranger with a happy tail wag and lots of love. If she is frightened she will run away. My little dog weights no more than 10 pounds and is the one who makes a fuss and attacks.

I wish I had a Huckabee sign. I haven't noticed any in the Pittsburgh area. Huckabee scares me the same way Santorum does. I wish I had some Santorum signs too. Maybe If I put them on the lawn with a sign for Larry Craig- I'd scare the neighbors.

How often does PBing happen? Does it typically go away over time? :thumbdown:

Let me tell you about the horrible snack I tried today- quaker oats 90 calorie chocolate drizzle rice cakes with marshmallow fluff spread on them. OMG- they are so yummy. I got the idea from hungrygirl.com. the only problem is that i want to eat a lot more than the amount i am suppose to. I LOVE junk.

Steph- Has it been difficult? I am scared I will be banded and still not loose weight?

Thanks for the support Shelly. It's starting too look like the kids will have a delay tomorrow. I checked out local school district on kdka.com and so far- no closing/delay. Pgh Public has a two hour delay, I imagine we should be posted shortly. I don't have children of my own however on snow days my house is a zoo with everyone else's. That probably will keep me from the gym and I will be tempted to nibble on junky kiddie Snacks my sister in law and neightbors will drop off along w the kiddies. :tt2:

is this a joke?

Mike Huckabee scared the living !#%^%%$&^% out of me! Does anyone else read/podcast Savage Love?
