    To Tummy Tuck or Not?

    It depends on if you will need it or not. In my case I know that I will. I am looking forward to it when the day comes.

    Any smokers out there?

    I smoke and I smoked during my surgery. It had no adverse reaction. I want to quit though and I say that to myself every day.

    I was able to get in a 30 minute walk today. I am so out of shape.

    Lap Band Cost/Area

    Check with Doctor McKeen in San Jose, CA. I believe he is less. He does surgeries here in San Jose and in Utah. Good luck.

    Well...I did it!

    The thing that really helps me when I have the feeling is to sip a cup of hot tea. It really helps. Good luck.

    Sore muscles?

    I joined Curves and worked out 2 days in a row. I'm sore today so I decided not to work out today. Are there any suggestions for sore muscles other than to rest for a day or 2?

    Craziest Patient

    Thats a funny story. BTW, I haven't stopped smoking yet either. Isn't it a nasty habit, don't know why I do it. Good luck with your weight loss.

    What a jerk. As if to say you would have been interested in him. Go figure.

    Random Question

    Mine took 6 weeks or so. Mostly because of the wait on the insurance company. I had all my other stuff done about 3 weeks into the process. Truthfully, I thought it went pretty fast. Good luck.

    pre-op diet poll

    I was lucky as I didn't have a pre op diet. I guess my doctor believes that you are this way and you failed so many times. I heard that the benefit is to shrink the liver? but I'm not sure. Good luck with your diet.

    Hi Junbees, can someone tell me how many fills they had until they reached their sweet spot. I've had 3 but I am contemplating a 4th.

    What Foods Cant You Eat?

    Can't do lunchmeat, chicken unless its really moist and eggs. Eggs are the worst for me. Give me a good beef filet anytime!

    Woo Hoo! I've Lost My Manicurist!!!

    Koala, this is great progress. Keep in mind what my husband told me last night. You didn't gain all your weight overnight so it will take time to take it off. Best of luck.
