Well, I've been in Carlsbad this weekend for my son's soccer tournament and I have managed to gain all 8 lbs that I had lost back in 3 days!!! I am not happy right now!!! I'm really hoping it's just water weight because I truly did not eat THAT much. I was trying so hard too because I wanted to go into my pre-op appointment on Tuesday at my pre-surgery goal of 10 lbs or darn close to it! I've gone back and forth between getting bypass or lap band because I'm so afraid of failing with the band! I really wanted to prove to myself that I can do this! So as of this afternoon I'm back on liquids, if I gained it back in 3 days maybe I can lose it in 3 days:confused: I guess I'll have to wait and see.

Congrats on your approval!

Hey everyone....I'm been super busy this week and I have fallen off the band wagon...I'll be out of town this weekend for my son's soccer tournament so I'm going to start back up on Monday. But, I am going to make sure I get out walk, I don't run in public...I have an out body experience just thinking of the thought of my fat flying everywhere!! Have a great weekend!:thumbdown:

tnag...Thanks so much for your advice! And congrats on getting your band! I wish you a speedy recovery!!!(:

I'm having my surgery Aug. 6th, and I'm trying to get used to the idea of liquids for a whole two weeks straight. So, I went a whole 24 hours with just shakes and liquids and I was doing fine, I really wasn't even that hungry. But, I got so light headed I felt the I was going to pass out, so I eat feel food and I felt better. Has this ever happened to any of you????

That bites! I'm afraid of something like that happening to me. My insurance "covers my surgery".....but, after my deductible and some "filing fee" (because the insurance doesn't pay enough to cover the doctor's fee???????)....I'm still paying $8200 out of pocket.

Ok....What does PB mean?????LOL I really don't know!

I'm getting banded Aug 6th too. Good luck to you and your sister!!

Thanks so much! That's a great tip.(:

Well, I decided to start my pre-op diet early to see how I was going to handle the whole two weeks on just liquids thing! And I made it a whole 24 hours...that's a big deal for me! That is until I ended up being so light headed to the point I truly thought I was going to pass out...it was a trippy feeling!! So, I ate real food and after a little while I felt much better. After that experience I got on the scale and I had lost 2 lbs in one day! That really motivated me so I've really be watching my intake this week and I have lost 8 pounds!!!! Who would have thunk it...you eat less..you lose weight! I have lost 8 lbs before in one week but, that's because I went to the weight Dr. and got diet pills and water pills....this time I did all on my own! I'm super excited about it! I just hope I can maintain it when I go on vacation next week! I can lose weight taking diet pills but, I don't like the way it makes me feel and after awhile my heart will start racing....not good! So, I'll stop taking them and gain all the weight back plus some ! That's why I decided to get the Lab Band....it will help me not feel as hungry and not attack my heart while doing it. I know that there's risk involved but, I think it out weights what diet pills can do to you in the long run!

Welcome to the August All-stars jenbug (cute name). Tell us little bit about yourself!(:

Vegas I have lost 7 lbs this week! Who would have thought it you eat less you lose weight!LOL

I love watching the you tube video's on Lab band....It's very motivating!. I have also watch the surgery being performed....it made it not as scaring for me.

Hottie...LOL Love that! Lana-My thread engine is working fine! And I'm with hottie just keep pestering them!!

Shamrock I'm glad your husband is recovery well. Good luck on your pre-op!

Lellow thanks so much for the break down. Your too funny. So were all singing from the same song book!LOL

Lanakila...I loved the video..LOL BTW...I'm a morning diet pepsi girl too! Nothings going to be harder then to give it up!

I'm getting banded Aug. 6th and I have my pre-op July 22 (on Tuesday)...I'm trying hard not to really think about my date because I don't want to get nervous. I'm married to a wonderful man, I have a 15 year old daughter and I have two boys 8 & 3. Two out of 3 (only because one is only 3 lol) play club soccer and I'm there team managers....it's alot of work but, I have fun doing it! So yes, I'm a total soccer mom (but, soccer mom's gone wild is a better why to describe me!LOL).

I just realize that you and your husband are both getting banded on the same day! Talk about having great support at home!

Hi fee, Re-banded what happened the first time???
