Binge Drinking = Bad. Really, really bad.
Amethystjade replied to MaxDrmmr's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
ooo, yeah.. thats not good...I think the first time I drank, I got smashed off of 2 sips.. I was a light weight before the surgery now.. It's just funny. Thats not good with ur lapband though.. You don't want slippage, ugh.. Good luck! -

What's a good way to meet a guy? Do guys actually like bigger girls?
Amethystjade replied to Amethystjade's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Thanks for all the support and advice. I love reading everyone's experience.. It's great that all you have support during this process. It brings hope that people who know what it feels like to be bigger and have gone through the experience are starting to find the happiness that we all are striving for.. Just remember to hold onto that emotion, because that is what is going to get you through the tough times.. This holiday was a harder one, I can only imagine what Christmas is going to be like.. My family is constantly asking, no boyfriend? I'm like no, no boyfriend.. They are then like what, no cute boys at school or your apartment? I'm like of course there is HOT/cute guys at school and where I live, they just have girlfriends or don't give me a chance yet. Blah.. Oh well.. It's weird/hard to think of how much looks really influence whether we get to know a person.. Reading all these, I find myself getting more happy. In fact the other night, I was looking into the mirror, and I'm finally starting to see the person I once knew.. I found some picture of me getting award from school last May before I had surgery and I was soo disgusted that I ever got to be that big.. The sad thing is, I thought I looked good in that picture.. This band has truly saved my life.. I just need to keep working at it. Anyways, Thanks again for helping me find some confidence again and help guiding me towards a path of rewarding skinny goals to accomplish. -
congrats!!! im happy you told your hubby and he's supporting you through this!! When is your surgery date?

60-80 is what my doctor said..and make sure you take your vitamin!! Seriously.. I started losing a LOT of hair around month 3ish and it hasnt stopped yet.. -

I can always use a lapband buddy!! Maybe you can help keep me more inspired.. I hope I didn't scare you any.. Evveryone's proccess is different. Keep me updated.. Thanks for the kind words

the proccess for me has been sort of difficult.. I didnt do any of the test, because I was self-pay.. I never did the psych-eval and i tihnk everyone should have to go through that.. The band makes you deal with things you haven't dealt with in a long time. I find myself more emotional lately, but thats due to outside factors along with losing so much weight so fast.. when you lose weigh really fast, a lot of hormones are relased and i've cried a lot more in the last month than i have since i was like 10..Thats just me though.. My weightloss has been great though.. im at about 70lbs now..

oh yeah!! that would be awesome..a friend of mine and me want to go there next summer..maybe we should go in august too! haha.
