Just an interesting FYI..... I was watching Oprah the other night & Dr. Oz was on with obese teens... and they were comparing items and Regular bacon vs. Turkey Bacon was on and guess which one was better for you???? REGULAR bacon!!! Apparently the Turkey Bacon has 70mg MORE sodium than regular. The fat & calories were pretty much the same. I don't know about you but I HATE TB... I'd rather have the regular and now I can justify it!! :frown: Just thought I'd share! -

Banding on May 21st 2009. Who else?
sassysara replied to lotsabirds's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
All is going well over here. Had my 1st fill on the 18th of July. And though some foods are hard to go down (feels like heartburn). But I haven't lost any weight still. But then again I haven't gained any either. When I got my fill the Dr. told me that I'd probably need to come in again for a 2nd fill. So I am hoping to get on on the 22nd of Aug. This weekend is going to be interesting. Going on a 3-day cruise. I don't plan on going crazy.. but I am just concerned about anything getting stuck. Mostly it's in the morning. So I know to drink some warm water before I eat to loosen it up just a bit. TTYS!! -
First Fill Experiences For The Mayo BANDitos
sassysara replied to John337's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I got my first fill on Saturday the 18th!! I only got 2 cc's (policy) but that's ok. I have to go to TJ for them, and I'd hate for any complications to come around and me have to truck it back to MX. So I have to wait 4 weeks and then go back again. There wasn't any restriction or tightness and the Dr. said as he put the whole 2cc's in, that I'd be back. But I have noticed a little difference. I'm fuller sooner, which is good. And when I eat hummus with baked pita chips, there is a instant fullness. It's weird. Tonight I made a DiGiorno pizza and normally, I could eat like 3 pieces. Tonight it was 1 1/2. So bread isn't a problem but I'm getting fuller, quicker! So I hope the next fill will put me to the level I need. I'm going on a cruise in 2 weeks, so at least I know I have a little more 'control' now than I used to. -

sassysara replied to lotsabirds's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
ME!!!! I can't wait for my fill! July 18th. I have noticed that I don't eat 'as much' but I can still pretty much eat anything. I had pb'ing one day when I ate some turkey too fast, but otherwise, everything is free game! I'm trying really hard to not eat bad things... But I do notice that I get hungry/hunger pains instantly. I have to keep cheese and raw nuts on hand to tide me over between meals. How are you doing? -
I too had the same stats as you. I am 4 weeks post op. I got, 'i can't believe you did this just to lose 60 lbs..' my reply.... i didn't do it to lose 60 lbs, i did it to KEEP OFF 60 lbs. i can lose till the cows come home, been doing it since i was 13. its the keep it off part that i suck at! When people also said that you're not that big, i just thanked them, and said healtwise, I am..... I took that as a compliment. they're basically telling you your skinny is a round-a-bout way.

Was the blood bright or dark? Odds are if it was light, you may have scratched something on the way up. If it was dark, that's not a good sign. But all in all, call the Dr. Better to be safe than sorry.

Doing MUCH better! Eating mushy food. Just a few more days till REAL food. My dr. doesn't do fills till 8 weeks out, so I don't get a fill till July 18th. But that's ok. I think I'll be able to handle Bandster-hell for a bit. Can't believe it's been 3 weeks! I thought I'd NEVER get thru that first week of liquids... and nausea.. but I am stronger than I thought, I guess! Hope all are doing well too!
