I hate it when people post just to post.....
losingjusme replied to TerriDoodle's topic in The Lounge
crazy? ME?? ummm... yup a tad. i wanted to be as drug free (even tylenol was off limits for awhile until i was ready to bash my head in...) in this pregnancy as possible... i did have to smile today as i was walking in Walgreens picking up some Monistat (sorry guys)... walked past the plugs and beach towels and just grinned ... -
**checking to make sure we're in R&R** that is one of THE MOST F'D up things i've ever heard!!!

Either the band or me is not working! :(
losingjusme replied to wishful57's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
odizzydori gave excellent advice. my thoughts are get rid of the sweets. if you want sweet, go for grapes, plums, etc... i also think doing some mild exercising to start will help kick start things. good luck. -
coupla questions... again!!!!
losingjusme replied to camjay's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
hi, most people need more than 1 or 2 fills to get pretty good restriction. i know i am tighter in the morning than any other time (usually liquids only in the AM). if you find yourself not losing like you would like (2 pounds a week average), maybe schedule another fill. good luck! -
what? i'm sorry but if we could 'exercise some control', we wouldnt really need the band in the first place. everyone is different and has different needs. my suggestion, be firm with the doctor and tell him you need another fill. if he flat out refuses, maybe find another fill doc or someone else to do your fills (there are companies out there). good luck.

How much did you gain w/ band & baby?
losingjusme replied to Liz1531's topic in Pregnancy with Weight Loss Surgery
poohlvr, how exciting! great job on the very small gain! best of luck Monday. -
hey Jimboss! glad you're back! tell us what you are doing? are you struggling with eating too much? do you need another fill or are you eating things that slip thru the band?

hi Mike, welcome to LBT... i guess my first question to you is ... how many times have you lost those 31 pounds and kept them off?? that's the beauty of the band... it is a truly fabulous tool that not only helps you lose, it will help you maintain. best of luck to you. -
Intro's and Honesty
losingjusme replied to mistressmama's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
best of luck to you. welcome to LBT. -
hi, my restriction fluctuates GREATLY throughout the day. mornings i am the tightest and in the evenings i can mostly eat about 2/3 of a chicken breast and a few bites of veggies. also, before pregnancy, i was very tight a few days before my period. good luck!
-
i started at 5'9" and 402.5.. i've lost 160 so far (now pregnant)... i dont agree with the doctor. if you put your mind to it, you can do it. (fyi - i exercised 6-9 times a week when i lost the most) good luck

Banded in DFW Metroplex area, some issues
losingjusme replied to twyladawn's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
sorry you are having so many issues. i, too, had my surgery by Dr. Marsden, but i get my fills in Hurst. have you contacted the business manager for the Richardson office? IMO, what you are going through is totally uncalled for and needs to be addressed. best of luck to you. -
congratulations!

hi Suzanne, welcome to LBT. sounds like you are off to a great start! :biggrin: best of luck to you.
