Hello Elizabeth, thank you for touching base. I was getting nervous. Sorry about the nurses, that really surprises me. Sometimes if your pain gets too far ahead, it's very difficult to get it under control. What are you using for protein? Are you still having to use vicodin? That stuff is murder on the bowel. Just ask me, I have to take it daily for hip pain. Wow 9 lbs. water of fat, it's still weight your not carring around. Keep in touch!

Any November 2009 Bandsters??

Good Morning November Bandsters!! We're getting CLOSER, and I'm getting more anxious. Welcome to the site Tammy, you will find we are all on the same journey. I just had my pre-op appointment, and I was given several samples of protein drinks. My favorite is Unjury(YUM), hands down! I have already placed, and recieved my order. You have to order online at www.unjury.com but it is easy, and it was here in 2 days! They sell individual packets, so you owe it to yourself to give it a try. My weight loss has just stopped, I teeter back and forth 2-3 lbs. I must say I'm dissappointed, maybe I just need to try harder. My problem is I'm disabled because I need hip replacement, and I can't have that until I loose more weight. Anyone have ideas? -
Good to hear from you, I guess you were fast. This has been going on since April for me, so I quess Nov. 5th isn't that far off. I live in Salem, Oregon. My husband was stationed at Fort Hood when he was in the Army. We lived in Killeen for 2 years. Oregon is MUCH different than Texas. I think I had the best tan I ever had in Texas, I think it's the humidity. How is the weather there? It has been beautiful here, but you can definately feel fall in the air. It is really pretty here this time of year. How much have you lost with your lapband? I always love to hear from you, keep in touch.
Blessings,
Sue

Stacy...... What fun you will have. I haven't had a girls vacation since June, I'm jealous lol. Thank you for your comment about soda, see we are helping each other. Everytime I visit this site I am inspired! How nice to have friends who are going through the same adventure, to support and encourage one another. I would like to add you to my friends list so we can stay in touch. In fact I think I'll ask all of the November Bandsters to be on my friends list. Where are you going in California? If I don't talk to you again before you leave, " Have a GREAT time!". Blessings, Sue -

Good morning November Bandsters! I'm so glad to meet all of you, everyone is so focused on being successful. Thank you for your inspiration, I am really fired up today:biggrin:. As soon as I had my orientation, I started being more aware of portions and my choices. I have taken it very slow. Smaller portions when I filled my plate (not every time though) cutting down on carbonated beverages ( that was actually not TOO hard, because I was not a BIG pop drinker, maybe 2 a day) and drinking more Water. I started Sit and be fit (still haven't made that regularly) started reading, still reading and joined this site. This site is one of the best things I have done! I have lost 23 lbs since April:smile:. At this point I can say I have conquered carbonated beverages ( I still think about it, but can now say, "I don't drink that anymore"):thumbup:. I'm starting to measure SOME of my portions lol, and have joined Calorie Count. They have great recipes and you can save the one's you like. I also use Free Meal Planner from About.com, which is a great feature for me. Sorry this has turned into more of a blog.......I guess I tend to share a lot, I'm like a glass house lol. Blessings, Sue -
