  15. Im 4 days post op so im right behind you. Ive never had the stabbing pain but the pain while getting up from laying down i get that. They say walking helps but i know thats never fun when you dont feel well. I also feel the heavyiness by the port but thats getting better. And im not sure about the food part i didnt think i could eat yet? What foods are u having? Oh the pain in your shoulders is normal i have that too but mine was mainly in my neck and it was bad. Good luck hope you feel better soon.

  18. I had surgery on the 30th and that was the question i asked before i left the hospital when can i go back to zumba. My doctor said when you feel ready u can go back its been three days and im not ready yet but give me another week i think i wiil be i dont think u will have to drop the class good luck
  19. Im here to tell you zumba is so fun! I loved and im 240 pounds and i go i was just banded on the 30th so i havent got back into it yet. I am not going to lie tho its a hard workout when i leave there im dripping with sweat yes there are lots of skinnier people there but there are also bigger people as well. I recommend just going At your own pace! I dont like spinning around so when everyone else does that i march in place i look at is atleast im moving. I say try it if you dont like it dont go back good luck!
  20. My dad did his lap band in mexico about three years ago it took him a really long time to figure it out and this year it started working he has lost 105 pounds only problem he says is u dont have a doctor close to do fills etc..
  21. Well its done and im 3days post op! Im still very sore but im doing ok. Cheryl how did yours go?
  22. Hynita replied to a post in a topic in Rants & Raves
    I feel like people dont like how illegals come into are country the wrong way but i feel if you lived over there in there country for awhile you would understand why they want to be here so bad. To get a visa for people in mexico you have to have about 20 thousand dollars and property in mexico for them to give you a visa. So for most people over there thats not a easy factor. I feel that if they are doing the right thing and not hurting my family or yours then leave them alone. Its never going to stop. So why fight it?
  23. Lol yes as the day goes on ive found out its gas lol i thought i was growling cause i was hungry but didnt feel hungry but its gas for sure thanks guys!
