I am leaving for Mexico next week to spend Christmas. And not Cancun Mexico... My question is: What are some Snacks I can bring on my trip? I don't want to be stuck there with nothing "healty" to eat. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Have a blessed day! Lesley

Isn't beef jerky hard to get down?

I just made my appointment for my first fill. I am feeling no restriction at all right now. I realize it is supposed to be part band and part self-control, but my control is waning because it is becoming too easy to eat more than I am supposed to. What should I expect at my first fill? Have a blessed day! Lesley

I called my doctor's office the week before Thanksgiving and asked how i needed to go about making an appointment for my first fill. The lady told me that the longer I can do it on my own without a fill the better. I am still losing weight gradually and I am still eating small portions, but I don't know if it is because of the band, or because I am using self-control. Has anyone's doctor told them this? Should I wait? Have a blessed day! Lesley

Did anyone get a rash after their surgery? I am a week post op and I started getting a rash Tuesday night. It covers the whole area that they put that yellow iodine stuff. I have been putting benadryl cream on it... Any suggestions would be appreciated. On another note: My 1 week loss totals are 8 pounds and 8 inches!!!!! :clap2:

I am to be banded on November 1. Dr. Hadar Spivak from Houston, Texas, is my doctor.
