How about a side salad from McDonalds? Its only $1 and pretty satisfying. Also, What I do I get a flatbread 6in Turkey from subway and eat the inside with a fork instead of as a sandwich. And put lotssss of veggies and you have your Protein too. I heard JImmy Johns lettuce wrap sandwiches are good too! and low calories and carbs -

What's the skinny????
Pinkygirl replied to shuckybucky's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The first 6 weeks is not about losing weight - its about healinggggggg. This is normal After you find your sweet spot then you will lose the weight and it might or might not take a couple fills. -
Heyyyy we are all on the same page! My 3 month annv was March 20th and I'm down 30 pounds too..... only 17 pounds are from the surgery tho so don't worry atleast we didn't gain 30 pounds! I have a lot of head hunger too! need to work at that...I also work out 2x a week with a trainer and work out on my own 1-2x. It's hard, but we will get through it!

FayfayE here weighing in the same at 225. I went to NY to visit my family..... im pretty happy I didn't gain since I am greek and my grandma likes to shove food down your throat. Glad the band helped me alot! -
Oh wow why do you have to wait so long for a fill? yummm subway! I can't eat it anymore, the last 2 times I tried I got stuck from the bread :/ and it was a flatbread one. Im at a pretty good restriction spot so now its all trial and error to see what I can eat and can not! Im sure once you are restriction that 6 in will fill you up

What do you do when Aunt Flow comes to town?
Pinkygirl replied to Lizzy Fu's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
two days before aunt flo comes I'm totally tight! I couldn't figure out why friday and saturday I couldn't swallow anything without it coming back up. Then sunday came and same thing. Aunt Flo came so now I know that 2 days before and 1 day after she's in town I need to watch what im eating and chew chew chew! My poor little sister was getting worried. She kept telling me that my teeth were going to rot! ughhh now I know for next month to eat mushies and drink liquids. I am 3 months post op and at a pretty good restriction since my last fill. -
I had a lil cough too after surgery. It's prob from being in the surgery room and such. Mine went away and I didn't take any cough medicine. Just the pain killer syrup they gave me for the pain. It will go away just make sure you hold your stomach or a pillow when you cough. It hurts :/

So, I read a couple months ago that flying on an airplace and going to difference places will cause the band to tighten up. Why is that? Im traveling next week and now am wondering if I will be sick and/or everything will get stuck.

Pinkygirl replied to Pinkygirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I work in a large law firm so I dont really see everyone around a lot. BUT when I see someone I havn't seen in a couple weeks it sure feels great to see them take a double look -
bahaha a lady at work today just said to me........what's going on? Everytime I see you, you've been getting smaller and smaller. And I replied..."oh been working out alot, I have a trainer at the gym." Little does she know, this is just the beginning! hahah I only lost 30 pounds so far Can't wait till more fall off me THIS TOTALLY MADE MY DAY!!!!!!

Checking in at 225. Down 1 pound! Is going to kicked my butt this week at the gym. Training with my trainer tonight and Wed night -
Thats what I thought, I was wondering why flying would cause band change. It's all psychological, I guess. Good, because I was worried I would have been all messed up.

Day 3 and water feels stuck!
Pinkygirl replied to momnear40's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes, you are still swollen. I was afraid too and would always call the doc office. They would tell me if I was in crucial pain I wouldnt be able to talk on the phone. It is very scarey but make sure you walk walk walk and take deep breaths. It's all normal, dont worry it will go away. I thought something was wrong and felt like I was having a heartattack but I wouldn't have known either way. -
soooo I love the mini sausage egg and cheese wakeup wraps from dunkin donuts. I had one this morning on my way to the train. I got stuck for a while! I threw up 3 times and was so embarrased going back and forth to the bathroom on the train. Never again will I order one of those. Im kind of happy that happened because now im too afraid to eat it again and had to use the bathroom on the train. Plus theres alot of carbs in it Everyone was looking at me like either I was pregnant, had a bathroom problem, hungover or something like that. Of course I care what others think. Gotta stop that too! Anything you used to love eating and now cant because it caused you too much embarrasement?
