5 months and still no baby
Laura Lane replied to JWL08's topic in Pregnancy with Weight Loss Surgery
i really haven't been in that situation, but i suggest you guys take some time out, like taking a trip and maybe that could help. and most of all relax and be sure that when it is time, you guys will have the prettiest baby. -

No Support from Husband
Laura Lane replied to wvmommy's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
remember that men think different from women....for us something might be really important and we can't stop talking about it and for them it is important but they get tired of listening to us. so don't worry, you will be fine, just keep up with all your plans, but don't mention anything to him and act like if nothing were happening....:thumbup:goodluck -
Advice needed for when to tell family....
Laura Lane replied to outside*looking*in's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
totally agree with sue magoo.....just smile and be happy, the important thing is you are in peace with yourself....nobody else needs to know what you do or not do....if you're happy with husband and your immediate family, then that should be enough. best of luck and happy thanksgiving!!! -

How long until you're back to work?
Laura Lane replied to lyndeeboo's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
went back to work 10 days after the surgery....in my case my boss knew so there wasn't any problem....i had to tell him. everyone else didn't know, until months later, i told them, everybody kept asking about my weight loss.. -
whining or excuses?
Laura Lane replied to TracyNYC's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
mmm well, it is really difficult finding time, so what i am doing right now is waking up at 4:30 - in order to get to the gym and take a class from 5-6am....it is difficult because i need to go to bed at 9:30 -10:30 the latest....and if i am not able to do that....then i take a very long walk with my husband, at least 45 min. -
congrats and enjoy your new journey to weight loss....rock that sleeve!!!

Lost Control - Need support/tough love
Laura Lane replied to gracierose's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
need to concentrate and get on track as soon as possible....try to do something instead of eating....take a walk, take a bike ride, read, go with your friends, meditate, etc. and do be so hard on yourself, everything will be fine. we are only human and this can happen to everyone. best of luck!!!:thumbup: -
first & hopefully last time stuck!

8 days post op and still feel so bloated
Laura Lane replied to Sun Rae's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
at 8 days, i think you should stop as soon as you start feeling really tired....just don't overdo it. if you feel that half a mile is fine, then continue with that distance until you feel you can go a bit further. as for the bloating, i think you will be like this for a whole month....so just be patient....you'll start seeing the difference.....goodluck!!!:sneaky:
