  1. I don't like ice cream. And just who are you to tell me what to eat? Do you own LBT?? You seem quite snarky. And who's calling me fat??? Do you know me?????? It's not my fault that my BMI is over 200... I have big bones.

    TPG

    Well DUH don't you know you have to eat ice cream to lose weight??? It's a liquid you know so you can have it right after surgery. GEEZZZ


  2. I'm new here and I have a question. Will I lose weight with my lap band? I might get one. I don't like pickles though. Please respond. I'm desperate. :confused: If no one responds, I'll respond myself and wonder why no one cares and if I'll be alone the rest of my life. Is that cause I'm fat?? Should I eat vanilla or chocolate ice cream??

    Yes, it's because you're fat. Go ahead and eat both the vanilla and chocolate.< /p>


  3. He was worried I could die on the table(I wasn't). My Dr never had anyone die from this surgery, so no worries if your reading this. He squawked and ranted and worried, and I stood fast. This is my life, my choice and ultimately, my decision.

    He did try and discourage me up until the day of surgery. If I let all his fears, etc influence me I would never had the surgery and that would make me forever wondering what could have been.

    On a plus note, he has been terrific and supportive since the surgery. He buys me special foods, encourages me to walk (he even walks with me). Tells me to go shopping for new clothes (as the wt comes off). He still thinks I could have done it on my own, without surgery. But that is his baggage to carry, not mine.

    My husband was the same way. He didn't want me to do it either, but I knew I had to do it for myself. He tells me too that I could have done it without surgery. It used to make me mad that he felt that way, but I just ignore him now because I know he doesn't have a clue what it's like to be obese.


  4. I would just buy the smaller size and get the extenders. You probably won't need the extenders very long. I have been buying my bras off ebay. They are so much cheaper. You can get Victoria's Secret bras for a reasonable price. I'm not sure what your cup size is, but they go up to size 40DD. My breasts are very large, size 38DD, but they have deflated very badly. I bought a Victoria's Secret pushup bra from ebay and I love it. It lifts, but doesn't make your boobs look all pointy.


  5. Don't worry, the time will go by really fast. If those so called friends turned against you, they weren't real friends to begin with. They were just jealous. It happens to us all. We lose weight and suddenly we've become the enemy somehow. Don't worry about it. I'm sure you will meet real friends who will be supportive of you, no matter what your size.
