I did mine yesterday. It was a run/walk and I did it in 42 minutes. I was so excited.

I take a Prilosec in the morning and the evening.

April Bandsters - How are you doing?
marsmom replied to BusyMom1961's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have been gaining and losing the same 2 lbs all month. I struggle with food choices as vacations/ getting ready for school/work makes me stressed but am ready for next week to start to get back on track. I go in for hopefully fill #5 on Monday. -
Just keep trying and don't give up.
-
I never did a whole week over. I just did it for another day and that usually helped. Keep it up. It is amazing.

I love the couch to 5K. I am on week 8. Would love to post on here to share.

Ran 6.2 Miles in 1.5 Hours - Never Imagined I Could Do This
marsmom replied to lap5280's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That is awesome. Keep up the good work. Running is amazing. I am on week 8 of Couch to 5K. I never thought I could run either. -
I went on vacation at the beginning of the month and can't get back on track to lose the 2 lbs I gained on vacation. I am stressed because of getting kids back to school and starting full time job. I am exhausted and can't make myself get up to exercise. Any suggestions, hints or tips to stop eating crap? Thanks, Alicia

I finished Week 8 day 1. I hit a wall on Monday and had to stop. Today was a better day. Can't wait until Monday again to finish day 2. Keep up the good work everyone.

I do too. I was banded in April and can't figure out what it is. I thought I was dehydrated. Glad to know I am not the only one.

Finally! I'm down a size!!
marsmom replied to spoiltmom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That is awesome. I am down from a 22 to an 18 and they are getting loose. 16s are still too tight. I am hopeful. -
Doing Week 7 day 3 tomorrow. Am nervous about moving to week 8. Any suggestions on music?

Good job. Way to go. I got my picture taken yesterday and still have a long ways to go but am on my last belt buckle on new belt.

What Does 'Full' Feel Like?
marsmom replied to Zumba-Fattie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I feel like I am getting a pressure in my chest. Almost like stuck but not that bad. I was banded on April 6th and just had my 4th fill on Monday. Good luck. -
Pain on my leftside right below rib cage.
marsmom replied to aromer55's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've been getting that too. I have been wondering what it was. -
Finished week 5 day 3 today. I felt good about it and am happy it is over. What a sense of accomplishment. YEA me!
-
I finally read through all the posts. It has taken me months and months. I am doing the Couch to 5K as well. I am on week 5 day 3 on Monday. Thanks for all those who have motivated me. Keep it up. Alicia

marsmom replied to shoewhore17's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That is awesome. I can't wait until that day. -
That is so awesome.

So I have an eating disorder.....
marsmom replied to lovinlife4eva's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I would try OA. It is free. They do pass around a donation basket but it is optional or you can even put in a dollar. It might help, at least to think about why you binge. -
I Wanna B a Runner...
marsmom replied to dreamingofbeingskinny's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Couch to 5K is amazing. They have podcasts that you can download to your ipod and it will tell you when to run and when to walk. -
Lost all motivation
marsmom replied to LoserHeather37's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Don't give up. The first months are the hardest. It is hard to avoid the head stuff that we have dealt with our whole lives. We didn't get a band around our head just our stomach. Don't let your head psych you out. Keep coming back. That is what everyone is here for. -
Need Lap Band Buddy / Mentor Banded March 31st - dont know anyone with a band - looking for a parnter in crime!
marsmom replied to Melissa.GreenHands's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Melissa and Bridgit, I would love to be partners with you guys. I was banded on April 6th. I am 39, almost 40 and am looking for some support. I know how you feel with the skinny husband. 6 foot 1 and 34 inch waist. He thinks he is fat. Let me know. Thanks, Alicia -
That is awesome. Do you think that your running helped?
