Weight loss can be embarassing

Had to fly home the other day from Jakarta to Yogyakarta to be home with the family for Christmas (I live in Indonesia)

I was in Jakarta for a check up with my Dr and to see some business clients

I only had carry on luggage. We are fairly casual with clothing here - shorts, sandals and a nice T shirt is OK for general day to day activities when travelling short distances by plane

Got on the plane and found my seat - went to put my luggage in the overhead and as I reached up - my pants fell down

You know you have lost weight when that happens.

Of course there was some embarrassment from some of the more refined Muslim ladies - but the general mood from other passengers was a laugh and a helping hand to recover my falling luggage and my falling pants

Dont'cha just love lapbands???

I was just banded on the 23rd of December. I laughed so loud that my husband asked me what was so funny. I can't wait for my pants to fall down now. Thanks for a great laugh, but I think you need to either wear a belt or go shopping. I vote for shopping, you'ver earned it my dear. B)

HILARIOUS! I had mine fall off once, but luckily I was alone in my room at work, not in public. Feels good, though, doesn't it? Way to go!

Sad to say, my pants falling off is one of my goals! I've wanted it ever since I saw the WW commercial years ago! I keep my BIG pants to wear around the house just hoping they fall off! Sick or what!!!!!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
