Good4me1313 replied to Jim1967's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
That is a great idea for the newbies Jim1967. When I was banded in 2009, I started a journal and kept it up for almsot two years. I ran across them (I have several books) recently and was amazed at where my head was then compared to where I am today (I think!). I am glad that I have a written timeline to see just how far I have come, yet I know that I am still not finished. Maybe I will take my journaling up again. Thanks for the reminder! -
Congratulations, H-U-G-E moment when you are pleasantly surprised to find you really are making progress when buying new clothes! Best wishes on your continued success!
-
I agree with lellow, do whatever your body tells you it can do. Just don't "over-do". Best wishes!

I would L-O-V-E some Chinese food, however, I am trying my hardest to stay away from carbs, and the few times I have had rice, it did not agree with me. Good luck, just take it easy to see what you are able to tolerate with the band!
-
Oh, sorry, forgot to ask, how did you season them, with salt and pepper?
-
Interesting. Have a can in the pantry now, think this would be a great way to fix them. Thanks for sharing!
-
No, never had any problems sleeping on that side or my stomach. You will be fine!
-
Well now, what a fabulous thing to hear! Makes all this work worthwhile!
-
Congratulations new bandster!! You could very well be experiencing gas pains. Walk, walk, walk and walk some more. It could be from the position they had you in on the operating table, that has happened to me. However, should the pain continue, or get worse, as always, call your surgeons office for their advice.

Any women have this happen?
Good4me1313 replied to megpieky's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Good luck......with everything! Please do call your GYN and see when they can see you. -
While I have not had lipo (yet anyway!), you may be having a reaction to the pain meds, or whatever they used for the lipo process itself.....this can happen even when you have had prior surgeries (side effects with the meds). If it persists, or gets worse, call your doctor/office and see what they advise. Good luck, with the itching AND recovery!

You do look amazing! Don't you just feel like a totally new person? Congratulations! -
Girl, love, love, love me some peanut butter too! Think I may need to check out that PB2, that would be great in my protein smoothie. Yum!

Brianna, Glad you are doing better today, it's all about trial and error with these things! Want you to know though that I truly laughed out loud when I read, "like throwing up a jelly fish", in fact I am still laughing! Think what is the most funny is that you are soooo accurate on that description! Have a great day! Ann

What a difference a year can make!
Good4me1313 replied to krzy4vt's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Wow, you really do look amazing and you are right, what a difference a year can make! Congratulations on your success, stay motivated, on track and look forward to seeing mre fabulous updates from you! -
I agree with what everyone has said, however, it is up to you how comforatble you are about people knowing, now or ever. I personally told only a handful of people I was getting my band, the rest I told I was was my hernia repaired. You do what is comfortable to YOU! Congratulations on the start of a new way of life and wish you a speedy recover!

Thanks for the info, had not thought of getting a heart rate monitor! I did find a calculator and got some good estimates of calories burned, but I think that the heart rate monitor would give me closer calculations for me to track. Thanks again!

Almost a year of giving up on my lap band, now I want to start my journey again?

I have just seen this thread, hope you are back on track and doing well! -
QUESTION (Has anybody feel like they fell thier weight loss)?
Good4me1313 replied to lparedes's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Letty, he will not be disappointed in you! Don't give that a second thought, call him and make an appointment, you need to go. I too fell off the wagon and regained some of my weight. Finally went back to the doctor, started following the rules again and am having success....again. You can do this! -
How much weight should i be loosing, post op?
Good4me1313 replied to troy_r's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes, I lost very quickly in the beginning and then slowed down. Just keep doing the right things and you will have continued success. Just remember that this is a journey and a new way of life, not a quick fix. Good luck fellow bandster! -
Yes, trust yourself and keeping doing what you know you should be doing in order to be successful!
