    HELP.... Emotional Eating

    Thanks for the response and the well wishes. It just helps to talk
  6. I had psoted a thread about emotional eating and recieved NO reponses:confused: My daughter left on the 10th for afghanistan and I was crushed!! I got home from the airport and found out that I am definately an emotional eater as I found myself in the refrigerator 4 times. How depressing!!! Any others have loved ones deployed???

    Any Military Dependants out there????

    Thank you so much for the responses. My husband is retired Air force so I know the military way of life it is just so different when it is a child. My son is active duty Navy and has been deployed on aircraft carriers and that was hard but I must admit that my youngest daughter going to afghanistan has been harder. It appears so often that the war is so old people are forgetting what sacrifices are being made and that is sad:mad2:

    Very sad update

    My prayers are with you as well. I am soooooo sorry for your loss.
  10. I think you should do whatever you are most comfortable doing. I was surprised at my parents reaction. I thought they would be ok with it but after telling them I found out they had some issues. It turned out that their issues were of concern about placing a foreign object into my body but they understood it was what I wanted and once it was over and I was ok they are totally supportive. Hope it goes well for you whatever decision you make.
  11. Good for you!! Let me know how it goes and how much they give you. My doc has been pretty aggressive but I think he will moderate now because we are getting up there in volume.
  12. I am hoping another fill on the 18t does the trick!!
  13. We sound so alike.. I started at 240, I am currently 213 but the scale is and has not moved for a few weeks. How many CCs do you have? I am at 6.5

    What to take to hospital

    The one thing I wish I had though of to take was a "button" down shirt to come home in. I like an idiot brought a t-shirt and it was difficult to lift my arms up. Good luck

  19. Pre band I occasionally enjoyed a massage at our local spa. I had read some where to avoid these after banding but was not sure for how long. Any input appreciated:smile:

    My confusion

    I had beef last night and got stuck yet I had beef on Sunday no problems. My problem was too big bite. I tried again after being stuck and chewed better and then had no problem.
