I love to eat salads, but I love to have ranch dressing all over it. What do yall use on your salads to make sure you don't get stuck???

You sound swollen, I would try a few days of liquids before I went to get a unfill. Good luck.

Checking in for my last weigh in for the challenge. It has been a big challenge with Christmas and sweets being involved during December. I had a hard time staying away from the pecan pie, lol. I did have some left in the fridge, so I chunked it last night. I am at 160.8, so total loss for the month of December is 3.6 pds. Stupid pecan pie, why do you have to taste so freaking good!! LOL

Mine sticks out also. I was banded in March 2011 and have lost a little over 70 pds. You really can notice it when I am laying down. It looks like I have a little alien wanting to come out. LOL

Checking in for this week. I am a few days behind, didn't have time to put my weight down on Tuesday. I am at 159.8 today, not sure exactly how much I am down since last week. Total weighloss so far is 74.2.

Weigh in time!! Didn't do much this week. I am at 162.6, so I am down .2 pds. Not much of weight loss, but atleast it isn't a gain. :-) Good luck everyone!!

Weighed in this morning, I am at 162.8. That is a loss of 1.6 pounds. Still have about 30 pds. to go for reaching my big goal. Its a slow and steady process. Good luck everyone!!

1. Has anyone used Clomid? we used it twice, the first dose wasnt strong enough, so she upped the dose and it worked 2. Does it come in a generic form? It does, the generic name is Clomiphene. 3. What drugs/pills did you use? We used clomid We did a iui, a shot to trigger me to ovulate. The clomid did work. We have boy/girl twins that are about to be 4 on Dec. 14th. I have had pcos for about 11 years. Its weird, my periods completely stopped coming. I have been banded 8 months now and lost 70 pds. My periods are back to normal, coming once a month. Its so weird what the extra weight does to your body. Good luck on ttc. If you have any ?'s please feel free to contact me. Tammy

On the concoction he told me to put it in a little medicine cup and take the whole thing. So a little bit of a coke wont hurt. It will just be there to help whatever is stuck to dissolve.

Ok I am feeling much better, after a few hours and a few trips to the bathroom I am doing much better. My lap band was really kicking my butt yesterday. So I am on liquids for today to help the swelling go down. Thanks goodness didn't have to drink the concoction my dr. told me about.

I think I got some shrimp stuck while I was eating lunch at work today. I had some leftovers of shrimp alfredo. I keep pb and getting sick just the slime. I think I may have to drink the concoction my dr told me about. Lemon juice, meat tenderizer, pepsi. I need something to make me feel better, I can't stay in the bathroom at work all day.

Ok this is my last weigh in, I am still at 165. So a total loss of 7.4 pds. I didn't hit my goal of 10 pds. for this challenge but I came close to it. I have 35 more pds. till I hit my goal, YEAH!! Its getting closer but I know they are going to be harder to loose.

Weighed in this morning at 165, that is a 5.4 loss. I have been sick with a bad sinus infection, so I know that has contributed to so much weightloss. I am 2.6 pds. away from reaching my goal. Everyone is doing so well, keep up the good work and do not over do it for Thanksgiving. Everyone have a great Thanksgiving.

I showed the Dr. when I went to seen him and he said he would have to go in and tack it back into place. Its just came loose a little so I can move it with my fingers. But now its getting sore, I wonder if its from the port moving around so much and maybe bruising whatever it may be touching. Has anyone else had this happen? I am going to the Dr. next week for a check up, so I can say something to him then.
