Congrates!! Go endorphins go!! wendy

Jean Hope your surgery went well. Happy Birthday!I feel blessed to share a birthday with you. Enjoy your day! Wendy

don't know when it was i think sometime last week. But it is her birthday today i believe?

Sometimes if its thin and I can not have any toppings on it besides cheese and sauce. I also don't eat the crust. Sometimes i can eat 1 piece most times 1/2. I usually stay away from bread as a rule tho cause it's not my friend anymore. Every "body" is different. Wendy

lets see 80 lbs gone, did my first 1/2 marathon on bike,smaller size, healthier few glitches Nope would do it again!!!

Good luck. We are here for ya!! Wendy

I was doing great and bam i was so tight that they took 3.25cc out. The heat really did a number on my body. Now I feel like I don't have a band in at all. I am still staying away from breads, rice, pasta but chips boy do they go down well. I am not satiated for as long as before but I know I have to work my way back up to a fill. Now i am downing chips because I can not even cause I am hungry. Old habits die hard. My body is on autopoilet. Trying to gain control. So last night I threw away the chips and got up early to go on my bike and rode 4 miles. Chips still calling my name but must win this battle. I have come too long to gain back all i have lost. So I am not home and next Fri I have a dr appointment hope he will give me a fill again and I hope nothing else is wrong besides just getting tight from the heat. I need to start going back to MFP as well. Just posting this to make my self accountable. Wendy

Good luck. Prayers and positive thoughts to you See you on the losers bench!!

i'm here with ya!!

I have heard others speak of it . Being sensitive to milk products all of a sudden. wendy

First of all it is no bother thats what this board is here for. Call your dr. To you it may not seem like an emergency but waiting even till Mon may cause more harm than good. Good luck Wendy

i dont do bread, rice or pasta. hot sauce yes!!

Follow your dr orders. Sip the protein shakes and drink. Sf jello and sf ice pops helped. Other than that it's just time. wendy

Good luck to all of you. I have been banded over 2 yrs and it was the best decision I have ever made. Have patience, ask lots of questions and follow the band rules. Welcome Wendy

You need to eat to lose. You need a certain amount of protein too. Have you tried journaling on a website that can track all of your info like calories,protein sugar etc? The obsessing is the other side of the coin. I understand the obsessing. When I do that I totally tighten up and can't physically eat a thing. I've been told eating shouldn't be a chore. Good luck Wendy

Not sure if it did or could fix itself but to me better safe than sorry. If you go I would insist on an X-ray or ugi Just my 2 cents. Wendy
