Banded 05/01/09, conceived 05/31/09
rodriguezequal replied to tmbennett8's topic in Pregnancy with Weight Loss Surgery
I was told before I had my band that losing weight while pregnant is okay. As long as you aren't going to extreme to lose it. As long as you and the baby are healthy losing is just fine! My doctor told me to wait at least a year after banding to try to get preggo! Some say even a year! I agree that you probably shouldn't have been trying or you shouldn't have gotten banded until you got preggo and had a baby, but it's done and I'm sure you're excited! -
I got a fill before I found out I was pregnant and now when I eat my stomach hurts! It feels like a lot of pressure and I can feel it kind of sloshing around and it grumbles. Am I too tight? Should I get an unfill? It sucks!
-
That's good...I think it's better to move on and stop dwelling on The Jackson's in the news...I was a fan of MJ, but I am tired of all this coverage. My son is home now Yay...I'm ready to sleep in my own bed...not a hospital chair...or a famous weird guys "special" bed lol :smile: (For you guys)
-
Hell MJs not here and no one has a prob bashin him...why should you be an exception lmao

worried my band could be stretched
rodriguezequal replied to bkmom30's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
As I said before my surgeon said they don't recommend fills if you are going against the guidelines (eating bread/pasta/rice, eating liquid calories, ect) so I would say cut out the bread and stuff first then get a fill. If you get a fill and continue to eat bread it could lead to band slippage or pouch stretching...just becareful and try to follow the rules of bands Good luck! -
I hear ya! It sucks to see him hurting and stuff especially since he doesn't really understand what's going on or what happened! It breaks my heart!!!

If I didn't come here and read things and post crazyness I'm pretty sure I would go crazy! That's why when PG called me pathetic I said that she knew what I was going through how could she as a "christian" woman kick me like that when I was down. Some people lol. Anyways, Jack is doing pretty well. Still in a lot of pain. They took his catheter out and his Artery line. They took him off IV fluids and are going to try a normal formula feed all day. We'll see. Kinda highjacked the thread didn't I lol

We're in the picu and he's resting! The surgery went well! We should be in a regular hospital room tomorrow! YAY!!!!

Glo...my son is 2 and he's having a brain decompression surgery. They just started a little while ago and the surgery can take anywhere from 3-5 hours! I am a nervous wreck! lol.
-
I don't hate you Glo You can hate whomever you want...even me :wub: Everyone is intitled to your opinion! I also hate it when people thump the Bible on my head! My hubby and I call people like that Jesus Doers (Like Evil Doers) lol...I am off to the hospital for my son's surgery, but I'll try to check in later if he's doin well!!!

I can chug water with no problem because it just slides right through the band. Bread is a no no with the band. Also stress can cause you to get tighter! -

If you aren't eating right then you need to not get a fill! If you get a fill and still eat like you were preband then a fill is just going to cause you problems! -
I must admit a lot of things said are really funny :thumbup:.
-
Like me, Beth :thumbup: haha lol

I never said that you were without sin. I just said that's what god says so let he without sin cast the first stone makes no sense to me. Also if you read back on this thread I haven't been bashing MJ at all!
-
Not everyone belives in God...so it doesn't apply to everyone....Besides I believe "God" also said that no one is without sin!
-
You think I could afford it all up front! I had to put it on a medical credit card! I had to have my parents co-sign for me!This thread/area isn't for weightloss only disscussions it's for rantin about anything and everything! We're not haters! Come on. My lapband was a dream for me for over 5 years!

I would have thought that with the lol and the :thumbdown: that you would have understood that I was playing with you. Thanks for taking the dig at me though...
-
Umm...wouldn't this kind of be like the "spammer"? What did this contribute to the thread....lol :thumbdown:

I believe that Brittany Spear's blood sugar problems were caused by her excessive drinking and dieting and not the result or a genetic medical problem.

My husbands work uses the same saying, but with excuses!
