Or the " what's your secret" to your weight loss? Lol! Out of everyone there's one friend who won't say nothing!

I am soooo tired of people telling me how I " look better"! Wow did I really look that bad? To me its not a compliment at all! I wish people would choose their words wisely!

I have told a hand full, the people I can trust and who won't judge me but I know the skinny stuck up moms at the school are going crazy wondering how I did it! They just glare! Almost 60 lbs down!!!!

4th I think or maybe 3rd

Just a lot of pb'ing and not able to eat solids for over a week. Finally at a good place!

Yes, I have one more pound to "Onederland"! I am soooo stoked and excited! This last fill almost killed me but I am soo happy I got it and I feel great!!!

Last time I had acid reflux for a week then it was gone...this time it's not necessarily everyday, depends what I eat! Stress and pb'ing does tighten/swell you.

I also got a fill 11 days ago and today is my first normal day with no pb'ing n etc!! I totally feel ya, give it a few days and try to not be so stressed

Stress will tighten your band!!

I don't think I'm really stuck I just feel heavy there.

So I hear pineapple juice helps when u feel stuck! Well I feel that way, I feel good but I just have this annoying feeling that something is stuck! I was absolutely starving yesterday at work andy only option was some granola and milk. I had about 3 bites, I swear it's that, just sitting there. Any help or info and no lecturing please.

Feeling much better and stopped drinking liquids well before I went to bed and had a headache cuz I didn't drink my one cup of coffee. So far today is way better!!

I got a full of .2 cc on Thursday, staying on liquids for a bother few days since my last fill I Feb was hard on me. So I can tell I'm getting a little dehydrated so in trying my best to drink water. Last nite I had some hot cocoa since I needed something warm since cold drinks don't agree sometimes after a fill. I don't know if I went to bed too soon after drinking it but I gurgled and made those odd noises for about an hr and woke up twice in middle of nite with reflux. I really don't think I need fluid taken out but just so yucky feeling after that and I have some shoulder pain. Anyone ever have any of this?

I just had .2 cc and that's not a lot but my surgeon said for me it is! I'm just one of those people and believe me I can feel it!!

My doc makes me put hands behind my head and partial lift my legs up straight out and hold that position till she finds it! Always does!! And my surgeon always uses lidocaine to numb before sticking that big needle in my tummy!!

Got another fill yesterday, barely .2 cc's. Able to eat some but taking it easy cuz last time I could not tolerate food for almost a week. Did notice I have heartburn and some left side shoulder pain. Definitely a lot better than my last fill in Feb.

Only brand I buy since its cheap at Costco and totally use to the taste!!!! Im tight in the am so I can only manage a shake for breakfast!!

Don't waste your time eating pastas and breads. Stick to protein!

Seems like when I'm stressed or over whelmed I cannot eat and if I do it's hard on me, does this seem familiar to anyone? I have been overwhelmed a lot lately with all my kids activities and finally got through one and ate nicely last night and even managed bread, very rare. Today I'm quite stress due to all going wrong and it's hot and can't eat, has this happened to anyone?

I just avoid the pasta and makes it with meatballs or veggie style, sauce over squash, eggplants, onions, etc

My doctor always has me stay for at least 20 min and drinking water the entire time! You should of turned around at the time. That happened to me and luckily we were still in town and I went back and got a lil removed. Good luck

Since the Lapband I have not once been able to eat pasta, let alone bread rice or tortilla!

Take some biotin and try more protein!

Mine uses lidocaine and the needle she uses is soooo big and long! More comfortable knowing it's numb if she's gonna be poking around looking for it!!!

I have not been able to do bread, rice, pasta, and tortillas since my surgery in Feb 2011
