Lol, i tend to be odd too. And my body has always acted weird to things so im hopeing nothing goes too wrong for me. Oh, I heard there are different types but I didn't know if they could change anything, or were even really all that different. I guess there not really lol. Wow that really is way too long to be sick. =.( I think ive read about PBing and Slimeing, but I wasn't sue. Im not really sure what they are other then not good, painful, and kinda like vomit? Yeah, Ive read other people lost weight that way too, and had to get an unfill... I think. xD It really sucks that you feel so Icky, when your trying to get healthy. =./ I wish you were doing better. You seem like a really nice person, and you diserve to be feeling better.

=.] that seems nerve calming. I hope I do okay, and don't freak out at the last minute. xD Thats kinda why im nervous. Too many horror hospital movies i guess. xD lol.

My cousin actualy had 2 wolves he saved. He was told they were dogs, but they were actualy Wolves. They were very abused. I was really little when he had them but I remeber them being really cute and soft lol. =.]

I would love to have one like, half wolf and half husky or something. Or even a husky that lookes like one, I love their pretty blue eyes. =.]

haha, we have things in common :blushing: my body hasnt ever reacted to something before, im guessing my body doesnt want to get along with the foreign object and i have a feeling its not gonna get use to it or else it would have by now. i dont think anything would go wrong for you (: i dont think they change anything, the only different ones i heard was the realize band and the different sizes. but im pretty sure they all work the same way. the kind i have is just called lap band. it is indeed, i thought i was feeling fine today, but i spoke too soon ): PBing is very painful. heres what my book says about Pbing-ingestion of a piece of food that will not pass through the stoma causes great discomfort, creating a thick saliva ("slime" and PBing) which is the need to regurgitate the contents of the stomach. this is not the typical forceful vomitting of the pre-band days, filled with chunks of food, but typically pinkish goo of half digested food plus the offending chunk. that was from Lap-Band For Life The Complete Patient Guid To Success with The Lap-Band by Ariel Ortiz Lagardere MD FACS. so yeah its digusting lol you just have to make sure you chew your food very well and slowly and small bites and you should be fine. hmm idk lol. i know i have a feeling it wont go away, im so tired of it, i felt so sick i missed a week of school, that makes me sad. i still cant believe that i was the one that the band chose to make my life hell >.< i wish i was doing better too, if i was feeling better id be outside doing something, its so beautiful out, ugh but idk. awh, thanks (:

i know you'll do fine, no more horror movies for you lol read some success storys, those might help

ohh thats awesome, i bet they feel just like a husky, and wolves are cute :biggrin:

same here, the eyes are lovely, they're piercing :biggrin: one of my friend has two huskys, the normal black kind, he has blue eyes, and she just got a puppy back in may i think and shes a red husky with green eyes :blush:

ohh i know where that is kind of lol

Yeah we do lol. I guess your body don't want it. =.( & I hope so too, I really want to know what it feels like to be a healthy person, ya know? Eh, they should really make one that is anti-nausea, or something. Well that don't sound so healthy lol. I hope I don't do that. xD Now im gonna end up chewing my food until it pretty much evaporates in my mouth lol. =.] Thats sucks, I know I can't miss that much time, id be kicked out or something lol. xD And yeah it is nice outside, and your welcome, but I really do wish the band wasn't effecting you so negitively. I wonder if you had a fill, if you'd do a little better? Not even any medication helps? Like tylonal, or peptobismol? Lol when I first started on birth control to fix my cycle, I drank a bottle of peptobismol every morning cause they made me so nauseated in the morning.

I hope so. Lol, I think your right. =.] & I read a few, they excite me to see how well... or bad, I do.

Yup. & thats cool, lol you can always preted one of the puppys are yours, every time you visit. My friend couldn't have any puppys in her apartment, so I let her keep one out of a litter that my dog had, and let her keep it at my house, until they got a new place. =.]

Lol, yeah. Though I tend to live in about the smallest town in the middle of nowhere, near the catskills. xD

haha its awesome :blushing:. yeah i guess it doesnt. i know you'll do great (: i want to know what it feels like to be a healthy person too. haha yeah totally. i know right? it sounds scary lol try practicing chewing and when you get the surgery, you'll be pro when you get to regular foods :biggrin: atleast 30 times ahh lol. its weird cause some of my classes you can miss 25 days and then in others you can only miss 13 its dumb lol. i really dont want to be missing any, but i dont feel well enough to go, yeah it does suck blahh. i wish the same too ): and i dont think a fill would help right now, it might make things worse O.o nope, my nausea pills kinda dont even work so heh, and i guess im not supposed to have peptobismol, well lol thats not good, i have birthcontrol too but i have depo i get a shot every 3 months and i dont have to swallow a pill ahh

haha, yeah the stories are interesting

i wish they really were lol . thats cool, i dont like appartments that dont allow pets , awh sweet :biggrin:

lol ohh that stinks, i live in a sort of a buisy town lol

Yeah. =.] Thats a good idea, thanks. =.] If I get used to it, maybe it can start comeing naturally. =.] lol. Wow that kinda sucks, I rather not miss any time either. Do you get them homework sent to you, or can you pickit up. Thats what my school does. At least you have a good excuse, its not like your purposly skipping or something. Oh that sucks, I used to like live in the stuff lol. & ehh.. Id rather take a tiny pill, then a shot xD

Yeah they are. I was reading about how someone lost a ton of weight went to a high school reunion, and the people who used to pick on her were bigger than her, and how she was so happy and they were all trying to come up with something mean to say, but couldn't. xD

I don't either, but sometimes if thats all you can find, or afford, then you really can't do anything about it.

Lucky, I kinda wish I did. I have to drive 8-10 miles to find someone my age. lol

haha welcome (: yeah maybe (: it really does, it's my last year of high school and I feel like I'm missing so much = yeah one of my special teachers (I guess she's a special ed teacher) brought me my homework, I usually email her when I'm out, she said if I was gonna be out longer to let her know and shell tutor me. Mymom won't pick my homework up for me, ugh. Yeah I know right, a lot of people I know and see everyday all know I've been sick, I guess that's helpful so they could let the techer know right? Haha (:. I like the shot cause you don't have to take a pill everyday and you don't have to worry a bout missing one andddd the best part is you don't get your time of month (:

Haha awesome

Yeah, you're right

Oh really? Man that sucks

Yeah, isn't your seinor year suposed to be like the best year or something? & thats good at least your not falling behind or anything so you still pass and graduate this year. Oh my mom would have to go pick up my homework. But shes a stay at home mom, and she'd do anything for me, I got really really sick one morning, and she went out and got me apple juice, and it was like 4 in the morning, and she had to go pretty far to find a place that was open. =.] Thats good, I have no friends in my classes really cause im a Jounior, but Im takeing most Seinor classes,(don't ask why, cause idk, it was the way my schedual was lol.) So they couldn't really thell my teachers lol. But I do have a couple friends in my only jounior class, so they could tell that teacher. But I would have to tell the school and they would e-mail all my teachers. Eh, I don't like shots, if im getting a peirceing its like.. ehh whatever, but with shots I tend to flip out lol. I have to get my monthly friend, because I went until I was 15 without it, and I got it when I was 9, but it stopped, so I have the pill so I can get it, and it saves me from trouble in the future with my body. xD

Yeah it does, I hate being so far out of town, but its more peaceful, and we have more land then if we where to be in town, liveing so close to everyone else. xD

dude! i was replying back on my ipod and i was getting close to being done and it dies on me! then i put it on the charger, and all i wrote was gone, grrrr, >.<

anyways i'll start over.

yeah, its supposed to be the best year out of them all. and so far it sucks cause of being sick =/ i'm hoping that when i get the band out, my body will be at peace once and for all and i can enjoy my last year. yeah atleast, my mom is a stay at home mom too but her and my grandma watch my brothers kids every day besides fridays and sometimes sats and suns so its hard for her to leave the house cause my grandma cant do that on her own, but atleast now i know my teacher can bring it to me (: you have a nice mom (: when i was really sick, my mom use to buy me sprite or ginger ale, it use to help my stomach all the time, and i guess i could have it but it has to be flat, gross! i could never drink flat soda eww. my school does that too, some kids do take senior classes cause theyre smarticle lol idk thats how i see it lol thats good you have some friends in one of your classes. i only have one best friend in one of my classes and thats gym, people in my other classes are friends but i dont usually hang out with them but i talk to them lol thats confusing. i think my school does that too but im not sure haha. needles dont really bother me but the only ones that do are IV needles cause i had a bad expeirence with them when i was younger, i use to be very afraid of needles when i was younger too, its weird. and i didnt like the needles i had to get in my stomach before and after surgery, they kind of burned O.O. i love piercings lol i have 10 but i use to have 13, miss them, =/ i was supposed to get my lip repierced the weekend beofre school started, i felt kinda ok but when it got closer to leave i started feeling sick, i didnt want to get sick on them or faint, so i didnt go ): im thinking about getting it done after the removal. i got my monthly friend when i was ten lol i was freaking out cause i thought something was seriously wrong lol but thats weird, it stopped? i dont think mine has ever did that. well thats a good end note (:

it takes about less than 10 minutes to go to town here in the spot where i live, i live on a buisy-ish road but i dont live in the town, i have a nice patch of land too, sometimes its peacefull here too but i rather be closer to the country part. (: yeah i dont think id want to live in the town either, but id like to hang down there, if i was feeling better that is lol

Cool, my siblings don't have any children (thank god) lol. Yeah my moms really nice shes always sticking up for me with my father, hes a drunk, so hes always trying to pick a fight with me or my sister. =./ Lol, I always dank sprite too when I was sick, or apple juice =.] Yeah I can't handle flat soda either. Oh well im not very smart so.. I don't really think thats it lol. I think it had to do with what I could fit in with my Boces. I know what you mean with the friends thing, I do that too. Or I will start talking to some random person just to talk.. lol. =.] Im not afraid of needles, but Im not a huge fan, pierceings on the other hand I am.Cool, I used to have snake bites but they got infected cause the lady did them wrong, and I changed them too early. I have my tounge pierced, after surgery im planning on getting my tounge pierced a second time, and putting a 16g in front of my 14g. =.] But other than that I just have my ears, 3 on each and my industral done. I thought the same thing, I thought I was dieing or something lol, and I was at a friends house, for a graduation party lol. It sucked. xD Yeah it stopped but the pill regulated it again, but I think its cause im so overweight that it stopped. =./

Yeah, it takes 15 for me, to the closest town. We have alot of land, like 70 acers, my father inhareted, and bought. & because of it, its hard to get help with stuff cause people think were rich, but really were kinda going to the broke side. =./ And im going today to see if I can get insurance, (child health plus) and see if they cover it, and if not I might not be able to get it. =.( I like to hang out in town too. =.] & im guessing your not feeling any better at all today huh?

Yeah it is gross lol. Yeah we have a boces, yeah you told me about that, that really does suck, but maybe if your feeling any better you can take it next semester for the whole day or something then in summer school and get your licence, if that something you really want to do. =.] Coolie, yeah im weird, but it looks really cool, well to me anyways, =.]. And it was the least painful of everything I got.. well to me , so I know I can handle it. =.] Oh believe me I was SOL lol. Yeah it is for now at least. lol.

It sucks cause they always look at you different. Then if your like, ehh I don't have money for this, there like.. pssh yeah right your rich! And its so annoying, and it always makes me feel like, are they really my friend, or is it beacuse they think I got money to hand out, ya know? Oh, well im going for Child Health Plus, but I have to wait probably 2-4 more months cause my mom blew it off. =.( It made me so depressed when she told me. Oh that sucks..

yeah, it sure does. me too. today, im actually feeling a bit better, but i think i still want it removed so i wont have to worry about getting sick again *sigh*. haha. hmm thats dumb, she should be supporting you. maybe im not even sure either lol. trust me, you barely feel it, and when you have a hot guy piercing it, all your pain goes away lol but i really didnt feel anything. (: nice, theres a lot of piercings i wanna get but yeah they have to be put on hold for now.

awhh, cheer up, you'll be okay. it took a long time for me to even get it, it was a good thing though, and im glad it took a long time, and im glad i got it done over the summer, but that could just be me. well what you could do to help yourself a little, practice some of the rules, i dont know what your dr.'s rules would be but i'll tell you what mine were..i had to count my colories pre op so i dont go over 1,000 cals and i had to have 80 grams of Protein. but id keep the cals at 1200 and the Protein about the same...dont drink 30 mins before or after your meals, eat small pieces, eat slowly. always eat at a table so you can concentrate on your chewing(chew atleast 30 times) eat more fruits and veggies and dont forget the protein . start trying Protein shakes, start trying to cut out junk food, probably have it every 2-3 weeks, start exercising, walking, do the biggest loser workout dvd (you can really feel it) oh by the way, i think thats what im gonna do also whenever i get it removed is to do the biggest loser plan, like i have the biggest loser cookbook and i have the dvd (:...and ill follow the rules as if i still have the band like i said before...whenever you go to the appointments, hide your papers where you know your sister wont find them, i hid my papers from my brothers but i told them after i got it done cause i didnt feel right if i didnt, but keep the information somewhere safe. the next time she tries to put you down, just tell her, her words mean nothing to you. its alright, i like helping someone when i can (:

you're welcome (: haha yeah! ohh believe me, me too :tongue2: haha same here

Well that good you feel better a little, that means you can get through until you get it out. Everyone tells me shes "Jelous" of me but I don't understand how, or why she would be. She knows ive always been envious of her. =./ Lol, Im sure it wouldn't if the guy was cute lol. Yeah same here.

Thanks im trying. Its okay that its gonna take a while because I was told about the sleeve, and I want to more research on both of them, and it gives me time to come up with questions so I can make the right decision for myself. & Im thinking about getting it on Christmas break so, if I set it for then, I will make it positive. Yeah Im going to start on that. Lol I don't even know where to get the dvds and stuff lol. But I hope you do very well on the diet and stuff, lose the weight you want and keep it off forever. =.] Yeah im going to try to hide it. She lost a ton of weight by starveing and abuseing her body, and I know this sound mean, and selfish, but I want her to see me lose weight healthy. I know she will be mad, but she won't be able to say anything to keep me down anymore. & Im going to try to tell her that, but idk. =./ Thanks you help alot, I really enjoy talking with you. =.]

Yup. =.]

      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.
