I know our pain medication choices are limited; I was given liquid Tylenol after surgery. It does help with minor headaches, but right now, I'm suffering from excrutiating toothache pain. What do you guys do for pain from such things as sinus headaches? back pain? toothaches?... Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!!...

Cod liver oil pills...are they small? Because we really can't take pills. My doctor told me to start Omega 3 but said I should pierce them. Is that what you do with the cod liver oil pills?

Thanks to all of you, I appreciate the responses & advice. I am 3 months post op and I noticed significant loss about 2 weeks ago!

Ok...I understand that hair loss is part of the process but...come on now! Can I lose it all? It's all over the place. I'm almost afraid to comb/brush my hair! Don't get me wrong... I am totally loving losing the pounds but do I wanna be thin and bald too? No offense to those who have lost their hair for other reasons. It's not that I am vain..just a little scared. Feel like a boob.

If you are early in your LapBand journey....
dubbee replied to LindaD's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Be proud to walk into my husband's office during working hours to pick him up for lunch...and NOT wait in the car because I don't want to embarass him. He could care less, but I do. One of his co-workers is getting married in September and I will certainly make that a goal marker too. -

Having my belly be smaller than my butt! -
Why would first BF contact me after so many years?
dubbee replied to betrthnever's topic in The Gals' Room
Sounds like what happened in high school was pretty bad and you never had closure. Maybe that's why you are hanging on...tell him NOW what you would have told him THEN if you'd had the courage. Hopefully that will help you heal and move past this. The fact that you've shared with your understanding husband says this is about you, not that joker. Good luck! -
My neck. I had one as a child but it began disappearing while I was pregnant.

What did you do with your clothes once too big?
dubbee replied to LindaD's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
OMG! What a great thread. I came here tonight specifically for this same reason. MY pile for "too big for me now" clothes keeps growing. Part of me is afraid to get rid of them. Another part of me says "don't look back, girl!" I'll probably take them to a homeless shelter. Oh my...poor us....what a problem to have...huh?..lol
