Welcome to Bandland K@T Hope you are OK; let us now when you can how you are doing.

Yoda, you might wan't to keep a close eye on the bandaids- the glue that is used on them could cause you the same problem as the tape! Try to use paper tape and a gauze pad- it might be better. Good healing!

Hi Boo, I started out with broiled Salmon and then thinly sliced Pork Tenderloin- yuuuuumyyyy! I'm 6 weeks out and still have to be careful with Beef and almost PBed after Tuna out of the can - even with Majo on it. You'll do well- no worries.

You like filet mignon? You can make it the staple of your food if your pocketbook can support it! It's very good dense protein and does have no fat (Bacon wraped around it not counted!) and it is so soft you will have noooo problems chewing it to smithereens while you savor the taste! No worry mate!:clap2:

Thanks a lot for your compliment- they are large flowers- but for that I'm sad to say they only last for 1 day. But last year it carried over 400 blossoms and was in bloom for over 6 weeks. Have sofar only used sunshine and water- but I think this year I will have to give it a little help as it gets bigger and bigger. Would you like to have some seeds from last year?

Poll: How do you get fills?
Archermom replied to Wheetsin's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Had my first fill on Wednesday. No lidocaine, PA had to search around for Port opening (but left the needle in and just poked around on the inside) Did not realy hurt but I got a huuuuge bruise on my tummy after that and that hursts more the the shot itself. :faint: AAAOOOWWWW Got 2cc in. -

I'm in "Next size Violin Case" now but I hope that eventually I will be able to at least fit in some nice 10 1/2 or maybe even 10. WHooho- that would be soooo cool! :clap2:

Oh- I'm the other end of the spectrum- I'm by now 3 weeks late- Hurra! No- no chance of being pregnant- got fixed after my last girl...

Hi, try to get some Benadryl lotion and put that on the welts but not the incisions. If you think you need to cover the incisions get some steril gauzepads at Walgreens or some other store (you can fold it in quarters) and you can keep it in place with paper tape. That is normally tolerated very well. Hope it helps.

How are you doing? We are all waiting to hear from you!

Hi Tricia K. , would you mind sharing the names of these insurance companies? Thanks a lot. -
Jess; Congratulations- you look absolutely stunning even with bruises! You went a long way- never gave up and now you got your big reward! You are my inspiration. Thank you sooo very much!
-
Iziksmom, I would like to have one too- or make it two banded and beautiful sounds good. Thanks.

Hallo TrishS; why don't you attach the picture you showed us in the e-mail to your surgeon- that way he can make himself a picture of what you try to discribe to him- sometimes a picture is worth more than a thousand words! Just MHO. Good luck.

What will Happen If I Eat Pop Rocks and Coke?
Archermom replied to kabeerah's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Another one in that line: Why do ships carry cargo and trucks carry shipments? -
HHHHMMM- are they going to pull food too? Food can kill you too if you take to much of it - don't they now that?! Most of us here are living proof - I would probably die by overeating if I didn't have my band- so what's a little splenda? Get real FDA and take out fast food joints. (Evil gggggggggggg)

Not just a white light - I'll send you the whole rainbow- some colours for healing, some for good thoughts, some for energy, and some just for you to enjoy! I know you will do well- keep us informed. :clap2:

Can only have cottage cheese, refried beans etc no real food - I'm not sure I should try more solids but I'm sooo tempted , any ideas anybody? PLEEAAASSSEEE?:confused:

Hi leenerbups, have you tried to just use a hot pack on your tummy while you lie down- it always seem to help me even with pain that I could not really categorize. Heat just seem to calm everything down and sometimes TUMS helped too.
