    Hey 50 & over gang We have a new spot

    Trisha, how do you get that cute lil dancergirl on your post? Sherry
  9. My Dr. said it usually loosens up after you land within a few hours.. Hers just got tighter. She had a fill a few days before the flight. I just know that if I'm planning on flying I wont be getting a fill before I go.
  10. Did you fly? If you did, that's what happened to my daughter. She had to get an unfill while she was visiting me it was so tight.

    Age??

    Hi, I was banded May 21. I turned 65 in Feb. Two weeks today and I don't think I'm any worse off than someone 1/2 my age. Feel pretty darn good and all healed up already. Good luck to you.

  13. No regrets here. I'm in AZ. too and was just banded May 21st. The surgery center people are very helpful and nice, if you're going where I did. I just wish I had done it years ago.:wub:

    I waited 10 days but having a drink most nights now. I can't let all these freshly squeezed grapefruits sit. And the lap band book says a glass of wine nightly is fine.

    Hi people. Today IU am really dizzy. Shoulder pain is much better but why am I dizzy? Seems I'm getting all these first week things now instead of then. Still don't know why I can't get my tracker to show up. GREEEERRRRR!
  20. I have found that a heating pad helps alot. My pain is in the front left shoulder. Is that where yours is? I can hardly lift my arm when it hits me. People have said it is gas but why it waited until now to rear it's nasty head is beyond me.
  21. My issue is pain in my left front shoulder. Anyone else? It didn't start until day 6 and is awful. Off and on for two days now. Heating pad helps but geeze.
  22. I too had a hernia repair with my band on May 21st. I've been starving since the 22nd. I willl hold out for the mushie stuff until Thurs. but it's really hard. I'm lightheaded, weak and shakey too. Gonna go have something now.
  23. I to am starving! So glad to know it wasn't just me.
