brwneyegrl419 replied to ToddNYG's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi, I am from NJ and Dr Strom is my doctor and the surgery was in Mountainside Hospital............wonderful doctor and great hospital.......no complaints here.......... -
the people in my support group says it takes a few days to feel restriction because it takes a few days for the fluid to fill in the band after injection...........(disperse around the band is what I am trying to say............

I did not see it online either.....you have to call the store and ask if they have any left in the store but you also need to tell them they are located with the expensive gps systems that are locked up behind the register......they will probably will not know what you are talking about and connect you with the fitness department and they are not being kept there.........hope this helps!!!! -

I also just purchased this but I have not used it yet.....Dicks Sporting Goods has it on clearance and you can buy the armband and display both for $179.00 and there is a 15% off entire order coupon in the Entertainment book so you can save even more.......cant wait to use it.....I researched both gowear fit and bodybugg and they seem kind of the same except you can weat the gowear one to bed and it calculates how many calories you burned in your sleep....veeery interesting...good luck with it and keep us posted.......... -
11 days post-op and eating TOO MUCH!
brwneyegrl419 replied to gkilpatrick's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Well I am very happy to see that I am not the only one feeling this way, I thought to myself, oh great yet another failed attempt to lose weight.....because I too can eat real food very well chewed and not get sick, stuck, or anything for that matter.........not that I am proud do admit that........but I was very scared that this was going to failed attempt at weight loss.......I am 10 days post-op and except for my "holes" in the stomach, there is no indication that I had surgery at all...no gas pains, no uncomfortable feelings, nadda a damn thing (which is a wonderful thing).....I just cant understand why we really dont lose weight post op when we are restricting the amount of food we do eat..........any suggestions on that.......I mean if we were on weight watchers and counting points we would be losing weekly, and I am sure we are eating way below points that ww would alow, how come there is not a consistant weight loss??? just wondering...................
