    Dr. Nusbaum gets incredibly busy during fills. I was told to just plan on spending the day if needed. I know it sucks. I have to get up at 5 am to get there on time. I live an hour and forty minutes away from the office.

    Uggh! That sounds terrible. I've been afraid to eat fruits like apples and pears since my second fill. It's a weird one because sometimes I can handle chicken, etc, and sometimes I can't. I don't have an answer unfortunately. I've never had something stuck for that long. Hope you feel better soon.

    Delayed Effects of a Fill???

    My restriction is contantly changing. Some days I feel like I can eat pretty much anything. Other days, I need to stick with mainly soft foods. It's weird, but that's the way our bodies work, I suppose.

    Trish, give it a few days before you decide to get an unfill. Mine felt much tighter in the beginning. Some days, its actually tighter than others, even now.

    i have a 'drinking problem'

    I personally, would stick to water or crystal light. I drink a lot of Fruit 2 0 for a change instead of drinking just plain water. I noticed a huge difference in the way I look and feel when I get my 64 ounces in daily. You should really try to bump up your intake of water.

    Indianlight, Good idea not to buy the scale!! I'm completely obsessed with mine. And no matter how many times I say I will only weigh myself twice a week...I'm on that sucker every morning!! So strange since prior to surgery, I wouldn't get on a scale if my life depended on it!!
  12. It truly amazes me that what starts out as a news report blows up into debate about our society. Didn't anyone ever learn to "agree to disagree" and move on? Some opinions cannot be changed. So....how bout that Sharon Osbourne? Wonder what the "whole" story is?

    Spunky, I dont think any of us post our weight loss as part of some competition. We're excited and proud of it. Most of us have not experienced such postitive results before. We're all here to support one another. There is no need to feel pressure. This will work.

    Well, let's see. I started the challenge at 303. So 303 minus my current weight of 285.5 is....17.5 pounds!! Woo Hoo!! I like that...LOL!!
  17. Don't believe everything in the press. Celebrities are always misquoted. I doubt she was under the impression that it had to be removed.

    Houstongirl1, that is totally normal. It took me a good month before I could bend over long enough to scrub the tub. (it started to look pretty bad too. LOL) Jamie, I have allergies too. They sell Benadryl is dissolvable strips. Like the Listerine strips. Be forwarned...they taste bloody awful!!

    Two milestones

    Since I had my second fill, I've had to say goodbye to all pasta, rice and breads. Of course, I was really stubborn about it and had to learn through a few PB's. LOL!!! Everyone is different, so we all have to learn by trial and error.

    My doc said it was okay to start ab exercise...but I'm avoiding it. LOL!! I really hate ab work. I'm using the treadmill 4-5 times a week and using hand weights so I don't have flabby arms. I guess I'm going to have to give in and do the ab exercise.
