    Bruising easily anyone?

    Im getting little bruises too out of nowhere! on my thighs and arms....and it's not like I am bumping into things either.
  3. Hey December bandsters! My surgery was Dec 20th and I have lost 37 pounds total and 25 pounds since day of surgery. These numbers dont seem that big to me but then again my highest was 254. I know it's easier for people who are in their high 200s/300s to lose weight faster but is 25 lbs since december 20th a good enough number? *sigh*

    Bump

    No, I was banded in Decemeber 2010 and yes, I do remember a blister from the tube down my throat. But this is different. Also, when I went to my support group meeting at the doctor office, a lady mentioned her gums were peeling. Every since I heard that, now im getting something weird in my mouth. It must have to do with lack of something my body is not receiving. ughhh so frustrating! maybe I should go to the dentist!

    FILL & STUCK....YIKES!

    Same thing happened to me with salmon! One day you can eat it and then the next day you may not. I was fine with lettuce and tomatoes too and the last time I ate it, I was stuck. The band is tricky.

    Loving to exercise

    I love going to the gym too now! I have always been a member to a gym but rarely went! I again joined before I had my surgery and barely went but now that I have the lapband I make sure to go atleast 3 times a week! You do get a high off working out, and when I don't go I feel down and blah. I feel wonderful when I walk out the gym and go to my car
