alondralibre 0 Posted May 8, 2011 Just wanted to say that having a period with a lap band makes your stomach feel like a giant Water balloon with a tennis ball inside. That is all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zeniada 9 Posted May 9, 2011 I have noticed that this month it feels like that... I can feel my uterus this month it's painful never had this happen before weird. Plus I gained like 7 lbs this past week they say it's Water weight I sure hope it goes away soon and I get back on track... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cindy C 150 Posted May 9, 2011 Here's my trick for chocolate cravings. I keep a bag of Hershey kisses in the freezer. The rule is I can have only one and I have to suck it...no chewing allowed. It takes a long time to suck one til its gone when its frozen and its only 25 calories. It cures my craving every time. 1 alondralibre reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

options123 3 Posted May 11, 2011 I was recently banded but the first time mine came it was 6 days early and was brighter in color than I ever saw in my life and heavy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Time2BHealthy 1 Posted May 11, 2011 I am scheduled to have my surgery on May 24. My period should come on or around that day. Not looking forward to it. "It" always knows when to strike. I love the hershey kiss idea!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puglover 0 Posted May 12, 2011 I usually cant tell that I am on my period other than the obvious... no cramping, or anything like that.... but since I have had LB I know its here! I was at Zumba on Tuesday and I thought I was going to fall over from the pain from the cramps! I had to stop and go sit down! It hurt so bad that when I got home I took 2 of my pain pills I had left from surgery! It sucks!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
