Thanks! Renee

Thanks Alien. I dont mean to sound so clueless and i know you cant tell but i really have researched it. but whats the diffrence in a mini tt? thanks. congrats to you and i am hoping for a full fast recovery for u

Sue, how did you get insurance to cover the one thing? And what is that? Lol

Thanks to both Sue's. im sorry to sound stupid but what is the diffrence in the inverted and regular? thanks!

Hello everyone! I had surgery 1-9-09 and have lost 70 lbs. Now I am at a standstill. :thumbdown: I have recently started doing the biggest loser workout, but am curious as to what is the best thing to do to get the weight coming off again and toning. I have had 2 c-sections and have the saggy pouch at my incision is there any way to tighten this up? I was wondering since the muscle had been cut if it was now impossible to tighten that up. Also, my back fat....what in the world can I do for that? It isnt extremly bad, but it does drive me nuts. Just wanted to say that I am so happy I made the decision to have this done. I started out at 230 and in a size 24 pants and now I am 160 and in a 11 or 12 jean! Please any advice would be greatly appreciated! Renee

Thank you both soo much! It makes since to me now.....lol Wish me luck tomorrow, I am hoping I feel some restriction!

Ok I go in tomorrow for my second fill. Of course I have no restriction yet which I think is pretty normal. My question is what happens if you have a 10cc band and you end up getting it filled to the max and it still doesent restrict you? I know its probably rare but I was just thinking about it. Does that happen? Can it happen? Thanks! Renee

Hello everyone! I was banded on 1/9/09 and got to the doctor tomorrow. Im pretty sure he will put me on a regular diet then. My question is can you guys show me a rough draft of what your daily food intake looks like? I mean like "write" down what all you have to eat in day. I know you dont eat the same thing everyday, but just a sample. Like Breakfast, lunch, dinner and anything in between. Thanks so much! Renee:smile:

Donna, I go to the doctor today. I was just curious of everyone else. I will go by what my doc says, but was just wondering. Thanks!

Thanks spud mama for replying to me! I thought I would get some great ideas from others who have had this done already but I guess Ill try and search for some menus. Thanks again!

Hello everyone my name is Renee and I am having my surgery tomorrow. My question is after surgery I will move on to "full liquid" diet...what are some things that you ate during this period? Then I will move to the "mushy stage" what are some things you had during this time? I just need some ideas and I am starving now:cry_smile:! Someone please let me know that there is light at the end of the tunnel. What can I look forward to having in the next few weeks? Clear broth is killing me:frown:. Thanks for any input! Good luck to everyone on their journeys, Ive been reading, just not posting. Renee January 9th, 09 surgery day
