You need to be really careful that you do not dehydarate. If you know you will be out in the sun for a while try to have gatorade on hand, believe it does work (for me atleast). When you are drinking plenty of water but feel "sick" it can be a sign of dehydaration. So welcome to Vegas and stay hydrated! P.S Congrats on reaching your goal..how long after?

Congrats! looks like you are well on your way..3rd fill..sounds like you are so ready for it..when did you have you LB?

I got a really bad cold that continued with a cough I've had it for a few days and the cough was really bad. So, I am worried that if LB can slip? due to excessive coughing? It feels sore or light pain if I take a deep breath.:confused: I am feeling very tight right now so I am trying to take it easy with liquids only. So has anyone had a really bad cough related to a cold and had any issues..any info would be very helpful. I am new to this so I hope I did this right:redface:

Thank you for the advice. I did call my dr. and he also said not to worry to much since I am getting fluids down well and solids aswell..it could be teh excessive coughing irritated my lb area..Hope you feel better paige

Salsa, I am so inspired by you, really you are awesome. I may need to ask for advise later and hope it can be you to answer. I really like that you are straight forward and that is sometimes what a few of us need. I wish you the best of luck with your TT.. P.S I am going to try your idea of having a menu planned out for the week.

Berry, I had the exact same thing happend to me about a month or so ago. I was told to drink some pineapple juice??why I did not know but I did try it and my Dr. said to stay on liquids for 24-48 hrs. And that did the trick..I was also very concerned that I might have slipped my band. But thank goodness It was just a really bad stuck:P But still call your dr to be on the safe side. Take care!

this is great info:) thanks..I will try it this weekend

Well, I am new here too. But have been looking around the posts for a while now and love this site. I've also glanced at OH site before but never did go back:) How is it?

brandyII You definitely want to get a fluro x-ray done. Atleast for piece of mind:) Hope all is well and please do let us know what they tell you.

Sure I had my LB in January and yes, it would be great to speak to someone closer to home. So do let us know when.

I too have my up's and down's with energy. I started taking some vitamins and am getting my exercise in and to my surprise I am feeling much better. With 4 kids and work I have no time to be soo tired. But please do let us know what your Dr. recommended/advised.

Bob sounds a bit racist..you don't mind him. Sounds like you have a good husband and that's all that matters!! And if you don't want to deal with him..you shouldn't have to deal with him, so just go to your boss and politely let them know you are uncomfortable witht his comments. And believe me they have to handle it ASAP.. Well, good luck and keep your head up high!!

This is so great. I had this question about eating popcorn... and you have answered many of my questions. You can tell I am new to this..(hope I did it right)

That is so good to know!!I thought one couldn't eat it..But I am sooo glad to hear you can!!

I am new to this.. But just wanted to let you know that you are not alone..I too have one arm bigger than the other, and yes I tried on a blouse and one fit perfect while the other was hurting!!! I really hope someone can give us some pointers on this...

A big CONGRATS! for you. Sounds like you are just doing really well. I too was not in too much pain after my surgery. Until two days out I got reallty bad gas but nothing that was not taken care of with a little med.. Well, I really wish you well on your new journey..and let us know how you're daughter does when she gets her LB..

Wow, that does sound bad, but hopefully it can be correted either way. Good luck!!
