Hi...what does the tenderazier do, and what would I do ?....how to use it?..pat

....Yes it's worth it....Eventually we'll learn to live successful with the band...Each day I learn more of what I can or can't do...It's so much better knowing that I'm not going to eat ALL DAY LONG...because I plan to diet tomarrow....I no longer obsess about food...I now eat to live...We watch the cooking shows and try new recipe's...life is lot's better...I'll never diet again....I'll just live ....

BE POSITIVE......your weight WILL and IS coming off....Quit thinking about whether the band is working or not...There is no way you can fail if you let it work for you...You have been blessed to get a "tool" that many people would love to be able to have....Get on with LIVING....BE HAPPY and just let it happen....Find a pair of pants that you would love to be in to...That's what I'm doing...I'm wearing those shorts today..You have so much to look forward to...Look at your face...See the changes....Get up in the morning, fix your face and hair...and be happy that each day changes will happen...Get your fills when you need them...Love your life....

Looks like your surgery is coming up soon....GOOD LUCK TO YOU....Think Positive and enjoy the trip...It's definately a new journey...I'm just now learning how to take it...hugs, patricia

Happy fathers day......So excited...actually, once again, zipped my smaller shorts that actually have button and zipper, and not only that, but am going to wear them all day....Happy Day...I have about six pair that a friend gave me that are brand new, that she never wore...She had the molena band, and lost over 100 lbs, but has gained most back...Hoping that she might have the band redone...She gave me some beautiful clothes that she had barely got to wear....I'll save them for her after I use them.....Mostly 18's and some 16's....I gave away all my smaller clothes to people in mexico when they had lots of flooding a few years backc...Thank God for these clothes.. Am in the process of drinking my 2nd latte....Tummy is feeling much better today...Am not going to take any pain pills or mobic *anti-imflamatory...I did take an ambien so I could get to sleep last night...I'm having lots of pain...and am able to handle it during the day...the night time is worse...but with God's help, I shall overcome pain.. Think I will drink a slim fast for breakfast to let my tummy heal...Can't drive yet, so can't get to church....God bless all the fathers...

hi..understand about a little tummy upset...mine hasn't been to good this week...thinking because of sinus drainage for myself...my hubby and I have had the surgery since March 24...It's the best thing that we've done for ourselves in a long time...:biggrin:

today hubby and I drove down the coast and looked at some sail boats...dream of ours is to own a boat and travel the islands when we retire,,,without weight loss there was no hope that we could even dream the dream...My tummy not feeling too good having a cold and swallowing the flem...I drank a real coke to help get rid of the junk in my upper tummy so I could eat...I have had trouble with this week because of the cold...Today I drank 1 coke, ate 2 packs of peanut butter crackers snack pack...For lunch we ate at a nice resturant overlooking the marina...I was able to eat a small piece of fried fish...and 1 french fry...just could not eat anymore...I'm sure I've lost some weight this week, but am not too concerned about getting on the scales...I can't "not" "not' be loosing because I don't eat that much...1000 calories a day...I'm not getting alot of exercise because of the broken leg...3 more weeks, and hopefully it will come off...Randy had to push me around in the wheel chair...It was a beautiful day...The water and sky was so pretty....I dream of what it will be like when we get to travel some...and learn to sail...praying that my broken things will heal...

After surgery, I no longer need prilosec....I see more positive things than negative....For the first time...food doesn''t control me....You'll adjust...BE POSITIVE....We are all indiduals and will have different experiences with the lapband...
