Betsy, do yourself a favor.. start the prep early like around 1 or 2 at the latest !! I did and was done running to the bathroom by around 8 or 9. If you start any later, you will be running to the bathroom all night and you won't get enough sleep.

well all, called lisa this a.m., and told her i can't take this anymore, on mothers day, took my meds at 8:30 a.m. and at 6 p.m., i brought up something without effort, and when i took it out of my mouth, it was my protonix!!! with the name clearly marked on the pill along with the coating, just like it came out of the bottle! anyway, the earliest they can get me in for the barrium swallow is mon. the 18th @'8:30... i just hope i'm tight and don't have a slipped band like he suggested a few weeks ago..i'll keep you guys posted...vicki

Vicki,

It really upsets me that they didnt look into this earlier. I would think that they would make a problem a higher priority!

Good luck on monday and let us know

Oh my gosh whats this feeling???

Oh wait its restriction!!

Im actually full of of four ounces of yogurt I cant believe it.

I went to see Dr Hoffamn yesterday and I got a 1cc fill and Im feeling pretty good about it. Cant wait to see what lunch brings. I lost another 7lbs not my best but better than not losing, Im really hoping that this fill will jump start my weight loss

Good morning ladies,

It's me LiveLoveLaugh Cynthia I've been missing in action for some time now and I have to confess to some things. Seems since my partial (large)unfill in Jan/09 from being a bit over filled that day. I'm back to some bad habit's. I'm snacking at night before bed, eating beyond full, eating some slider foods or just not taking the time to think about my choices. At first I thought I won't say anything to the post since I'm a ashamed at admitting to all this, but heck why should I do that??? I need to reach out and ask for some help. I'm standing still in my weight loss at this point, I have some wonderful supporting friends that KNOW JUST HOW I FEEL..... So I'm asking for some help!! I see Dr. Hoffman tomorrow morning @ 8:15 for my second fill since that Jan. unfill. I know I just need to find that sweet spot once again to re-start weight loss once more, just I wish my head hunger was turned off like it was when I had that Sweet spot back in early fall.

I believe that the Wed. meeting is this week May 20th? Will anyone be there this week?

Thanks for letting me vent......
