Jude, what exactly did Dr. C. say to you. I think that if I was to tell him exactly what I was eating lately, he'd probably have alot to say to me too. The thing is is that I really respect and like him a whole lot as a docter, so I thought if you told me what he said to you then maybe I'll start eating better!!! , hopefully...

Best Wishes to you Lila, and to you too diane!!! And, OMG, Yoda!!! I'm like wiping the tears off my face...Way too cute story!!

Wow. good for you, making those cookies and not having any!!!!

Hey angel bear, hang in there. If you don't have much restriction yet, try eating bulkier foods, and stay away from the mushier food that will slide through easy. Oct 17 is just a few weeks away, then it will be so much easier to control. Hang tight!!

You sure have a full life Jude!!! Take care and keep in touch.

Here turtle, turtle, turtle, turtle....................

I think I may be joining you Maria. September has not been to good for me. But, every day is a new day!!

I'm pretty sure that I am getting heartburn from coffee. But does anyone get heartburn from tea? I would love to get as much info as possible about heartburn. I never had it before. Been banded since May, had my second fill over a month ago, and just started getting heartburn in the last two weeks, it's not to bad, but it's there. Anyone have some tips?

Well, I'm slightly ticked tonight, I must say. I posted a heartburn question out on the main forum, the one that has 800 batrillion people reading it, almost 3 days ago, and not a single response. Do I smell or something??? Honestly, I got more info from our tiny corner of the world here. I looked up the 'heartburn' thread but it was pretty old so I thought I would try to get some more up-to-date info, but alas, no. Sorry for the rant, I just don't get it? .........:cry

What no grapes!! I love grapes. I guess they are afraid you might inhale them accidently. I have already eaten them a hundred times, oops!

WTG, I found the pre-op diet rather empowering!! Awe poor Mr. Lila, thats sweet, arent we lucky to have such great spouses.

Awe poor Mandi, triple whammy!! Mmmmmm Liptons Chicky Noodle Soup. Good for colds, good for sore bellies.

They usually pull the skin so tight that you don't even feel the needle. But I wouldnt look at it, if needles bother you. It's a bit freaky to watch.

Kim, good girl, eating lamb. Hope it's Ontario!! Green, grab your rubber boots!!

It just occured to me how much we have grown here. I am sure, and if I'm wrong I'm sure Mandi and Yoda will let me know, but, I can remember when our little corner was less then 100 posts. Now we are over 3,000!! Way to go everyone, for making our little Canadian Corner a great place for support!!!

Thanks Wheezy:) .

Yikes........makes me glad I'm married to a Canadian man.

LOL....after I posted I realized your ticker says 5 DAYS TILL SURGERY, duh me:doh:

LOL at Wheezy, you beat me to the post, and I just ditto'ed you almost perfectly. LOL

LOL.... That reminds me of my friend, she went to China to teach for a few months. She is a size 13/14. Which is probably the Canadian average. Everytime she went out to shops the chinese women who'd laugh and stare and call her fat. Can you imagine!!

WOW, Leila, WTG, I only dream of the day I am 197 lb. Your right though, you have to look at the long-run. Square One is a great mall, you should definately find some shoes there. Lila, I missed it, what day is your surgery?

Thanks Maria

You are doing really awesome Loriely!!!!
