OMG, I want to CHEAT! Surgery on Tues.
juliegeraci replied to itsuptome's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
ituptome, congrats on your 13 days so far. You are so close. You can do this! -
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.
-
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.
-
Cindy, you are doing excellent. Keep up the good work.
-
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.
-
The thing that really helps me when I have the feeling is to sip a cup of hot tea. It really helps. Good luck.

I keep going to the E.r. and nothing!

Sorry to hear you are doing bad. Hope you feel better soon. -
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?
-
Went to Curves for the 3rd time this week. Yesterday I took off but did leg lifts and ab work. I'm happy.

StaceLG, this is such an exciting time for you. I remember back before June how I surfed this site to gain information and to make new friends. I think it is great you are getting banded. Its so worth it. Best of luck to you.
-
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.

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.
-
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.
-
Can't do lunchmeat, chicken unless its really moist and eggs. Eggs are the worst for me. Give me a good beef filet anytime!
-
Welcome. Sounds like you have had your ups and downs but I'm glad you are back and that things are looking up for you.
-
Carlene, congrats on your success. It sounds like your love affair is right on track.
-
Love the article. Thanks for the post.
-
Thank you both for the feedback. This is very helpful.
-
Good job, that is exciting.

Is anyone else planning on having a lil' unfill at goal?
juliegeraci replied to Sunta's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
That is what I am going to do. With the restriction I'll keep losing in order to maintain I would have a slight unfill. -
Reading the post have freaked me out ..help
juliegeraci replied to DomincanGirl's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I don't choke, but when I PB I do throw up. This happens about 1x a week. Don't be too scared. Its an exciting time. Just do your homework. Its worth it. -
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.
