Too Much Attention And Stranger Rudeness
I'm with you, legnarevocrednu. I don't like the attention either. So much so that I am afraid being this uncomfortable before has sent me back to my "safe" fat weight.

Great Snack Choices?
Be careful on some of those yogurts, they can be very high in sugar. I buy carbmaster from Ralph's and top with some fruit and a little bit of granola. They come in flavors too, but I don't know how they taste. It is a better option than greek yogurt and not as unhealthy as regular yogurt. Only 3 grams of sugar in the vanilla flavor.

Has Anyone Else Had A Hiatal Hernia Fix When They Where Banded?
I just found out Wednesday that I had one that was repaired during my lap band surgery. I didn't even know I had one, much less had one repaired. My surgery was in December.

My All U Can Eat Pancake Experience...
Tuesday is the all you can eat Free pancakes at IHOP. I am going with DH and 44 year old stepson who still lives with us, that is another story! But you can bet I won't be eating pancakes - well maybe just a bite or two.</P>

Humiliated At Work Today! Omg!!!!!
Hi - I'm soooo sorry you had to go thru this. Is there a chance that the mean lady just jumped to conclusions because you lost so much weight. Perhaps your co-worker didn't tell. After all, the mean lady did get the type of surgery wrong. If your co-worker told her you had lap band then I think the mean lady would have said lapband and not bypass. Just a possibility.

Gained All Weight-Can I Still Get A Fill
Hi - This happened to me and when the Dr. (after 2 years) did a flouro - only cause hubby asked - the band had never been connected! I agree with the others, maybe your band has a leak or something. I had my 14cc band taken out an a new 10cc band put in. Now I feel restriction and love, love, love my band whereas before I didn't love it so much - LOL

Professional Help
I also have issues that I know I will need therapy to overcome. I have been in therapy many times before, and frankly, I am burned out on it. However, if I could find a therapist that dealt in eating disorders, I would go. Good luck and Blessings to you.

Be My Valentine Challenge
Slowly but surely. Down to 220, a loss of 1 lb. AND I did only look at candy at the store yesterday, but today it is all ON SALE!! My bad habit is one that I have a hard time breaking. I eat intelligently when hubby is around. But if he isn't around, I'll sneak something like sherbert or his ice cream. I'll buy a candy bar if I'm out shopping alone, or get eat something while he is at the bar. Any ideas on why I do this?
