    Can't eat lamb. Good for those of you who can!

    Snacks or no snacks?

    My surgeon said three meals and 1-2 snacks daily as long I was losing weight.

    Loosing Pounds

    Should be fine. Depending on your starting weight the lbs fly off at first.

    my journey has come to an end :(

    So sorry to hear about your slip. I hope your improved eating habits will win out and you will be successful keeping weight off without the band. Best wishes! Watch the portion sizes and bite sizes, that will keep you eating a the right pace!

    Medication

    Ask for liquids or chewable versions. Better safe than sorry or stuck! I take mine one at a time. If the calcium one is big, look for Calcium citrate minis.... they are much smaller and easier to swallow!
  6. Great news to have a date. You will be home by my birthday on the second! Best wishes!

    Creepy Comments On Pictures!!!!

    I get them occasionally. You can change your settings so that only friends can see your pics then go into the manage friends and delete the offenders. That finally stopped mine. Good luck!

    skin problems?

    Yep... keep the liquid intake, non protein based to 64 ounces or more, and use a facial moisturizer. Dehydration can cause the skin to look sallow.

    Lump

    Often there is scar tissue under incisions... especially when the re-open one. I would find some vitamin e and try massaging it once or twice daily. If it is still bothering you ask you surgeon for advice.

    I think they are fine as a fill in. Definitely better than a lot of things I can think of!

    last appt before surgery

    Welcome and best wishes for your surgery!
  14. Insurance will cover surgery, but not always the surgeon's fee? Call and ask the insurance people at your practice what gives.

    Is something wrong ?

    I am wondering if your tubing has disconnected from the port? Definitely call the doctor.
  17. Yep.. definitely stay out of the kitchenette! GOOD MOVE!

    Port moving?

    Port should not move unless it comes loose. If it seems to move around as you press beside it, call your doctor!

    i ate really food and regret every bite!!!

    Stick to your allocated foods. Don't be a hero... just say no to the lasagna. It sure beats the alternative! Good luck going forward. Eating out is a whole new life skill. You will get there. Experience is a great teacher.

    You can do it my friend. I am struggling with the same issues. I think I have volume creep... not watching serving sizes closely enough. But enough about me. You are doing great!
