    Do you ever get frustrated with band babies?

    come back to this thread when you have been here for a year and have seen the posts about the following 1,000 times: 1 what is PB 2 what is a ticker and how do i get one 3 i just had surgery 1 day ago, but ate _____ (insert any solid food here), is it OK? 1&2 have both been answered MANY times here. in fact, there is a sticky thread for these type questions 3 sorry, if you are going to not follow your surgeons instructions and eat cause "you are STARVING" ... you are not looking for support, you are looking for justification. whats so wrong with asking newbies to actually READ and learn from past posts than ask something that has actually just been asked and is still on the front page of the sub forum?
  2. yup, its going to be a good week

    Rants and Raves become NOT for newbies

    transformer, yeah, i can somewhat blame the surgeon, however... more than 90% of info they are requesting is already here. what is a PB? what is slime? can i eat this? can i do that? etc... and then yeah, we vent in RnR and they come in and complain... and bitch/moan. awww, poor me. you are picking on me and are hurting my feelings... poor poor sweet innocent me. then they go on their month's boards and get their little cult like friends to come and bash. yeah... ok ... this is not RnR so i cant keep going, but damn people read the freaking disclaimer!! i like the idea about asking to be invited to RnR that someone posted. but thats a lot of work for the mods. i really do wish everyone the best, but the babies (i dont care if you are new to the board/new to banding or an 'old timer', the way they were acting were babies) need to just freaking chill.
  5. YAY!! how exciting! i am so happy for you!
  6. week 2. replacing running eith very brisk walking
  7. new week is here http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f81/couch-5k-week-18-24-november-45444/
  8. Hi everyone, this is our fifth week in the Couch to 5K program. This is designed to be a 9 week program, but you can repeat weeks (as I will be doing) until you are comfortable moving on. However, you are not supposed to skip weeks. It has been strongly suggested by trainers and runners alike to NOT run on consecutive days. More information can be found here: Cool Running :: The Couch-to-5K Running Plan Attached are the first thru fifth weeks in detail Anyone is free to join, no matter where we are!! This is the place to check in and support with each other and see how it is going. What week are you doing? How is it going for you? Is it too difficult / too easy? Any comments?? Good luck everyone!
  9. trystelle, im still going to do a modified c25k. i just need to chill with the hard pounding/impact of the running right now. im getting ready to post next week ... i cant believe we've been at this for so long already!!

    oh Wasa, you think that post was about you. it always has to be about you, doesnt it? well i dont think so. just cause you went to Mx and wrote this post to **gasp** help newbies (is that allowed, really??) you think you are the shit.... **sigh** i am so sorry to hear about your friend being banned. glad she is recovering nicely though. i think you are both preggers that is just SO very wrong. pickles alone make me gag. put them in yogurt ... where is that im gunna barf smiley??

    i hesitated posting this. there are just some who cannot/will not keep RnR in RnR and that's sad.

    rants and raves is not for sissies....

    in light of recent conversations, i couldnt agree with you any more.
  15. yikes - i didnt answer any of your questions - sorry. i was out patient so i didnt need anything during my hospital stay. one thing i couldnt do without when i was home was jello. but check with your doctor and your post op diet. i found i would wake up in the middle of the night STARVING (or so i thought) and would eat 2-3 baby teaspoons of jello and was comfortable again. my best advice i guess would be to follow your pre and post op diets. they are there for a reason and it's not to make you miserable ...
  16. hi Melissa, congrats on being approved!! this really was the best thing i've done for myself. there is TONS of information here, browse thru the pages - especially the FAQ section. it answers tons of questions. good luck and keep us posted.

    fried pickles (double ick) is an appetizer staple here (TX). that is just so wrong.

    Oh so tight

    hi Karen, everyone is different, but i tend to get tighter as the fill 'settles in' a few weeks later. be careful. if you PB, try liquids for a day or so. if you feel too tight, please get a slight unfill.
  23. Julie, i am completely floored by the difference. you look amazing.
