  1. All I can say is that my surgeon told me that flying would have no effect on my band because the cabin is pressurized to normal levels. I have flown many, many time with no problems. One suggestion is to take a bag of Protein powder with you on the plane and mix it with milk or Water. I have flown to and from Hawaii... it is 13 hours total, you cannot simply not eat for that long. At least I cannot with getting the shakes. Consider that doctors may be erring on the side of caution, but the physics does not add up.
  2. I hear that's because you are always on! LOL! There have been some technical problems today, per Alex.
  3. Drink lots more, at least 64 ounces of hydrating liquids daily. This does not include protein shakes.
  4. Many here have lost over 100 pounds, CarolinaGirl, Missy to name two. I would look for a new surgeon. You should get what you want, unless they have valid medical reasons why you are not a good band candidate. Look for a surgeon that does Band with plication. I give similar results to Rny
  5. I vote for sexy sundresses too!
  6. You're too funny! You got me!
  7. Sounds normal, but Lortab will stop you up, try tylenol.
  8. Sorry, I have the fitbit 1 and love it!
  9. Touche!
  10. Thank YOU so much! I should have known that!
  11. Janet... not buying it! Looking good GF!
  12. Thanks for the input. I think I need to call my nutritionist.
  13. Krogers Food stores here in NC have a low carb yogurt, I add protein powder.
  14. Congratulations, remember tiny bites and chew chew chew!

  16. I have been using it for about three weeks. I am consistently over on Protein and fat (cheese) and under on total calories. It keeps telling me I am going to shut down my metabolism. It causes me to eat at night just trying to get my calories above 1200 with my exercise and walking... 3+ miles per day, 6 days a week. HELP! I am actually gaining weight by counting this stuff. About to abandon all hope. I am up 4 pounds from my docs goal and cannot get below 183! What am I doing wrong?
  17. I also have fitbit one... I have lost and rediscovered it a few times, but it is small enough to be inconspicuous. I use it with MFP!
  18. Mid 80's on the golf course... got hot and tired in the afternoon. Did not keep score, which helps me just enjoy being out and about! Only destroyed 3 fingernails in the process! Oh well... they grow back! Dawn good to hear from you. Do NOT take golf lessons from Brad. Sure way to ruin a good relationship. My husband paid a local female pro to teach me. Much better! I am not all the good, but then I play less than 10 times a year. I enjoy being out. Janet hope the new storm does not reflood the yard! Good luck. Carole, I love the sound of a copper sink. I'll bet it will look great! Dee glad you got your computer to work a bit. Folks were having trouble logging on to LBT today, but Alex says it is fixed now. Love... take it easy as you can... look forward to seeing you next Wednesday... and Carole, you too. Did you all know I will also get to meet Doreen in July! Yes, now I am bragging! California girls where are you????? Last week off for Cawa, but where is Mini?
  19. Carole... I like it... one minute at a time. Hubby and I are going to go out and commune with nature today and play golf. I have not played since February, it won't be pretty! LOL
  20. You should not have any problems.
  21. No problem... A vitamin is not a meal!
  22. Well this east coaster is crashing fast! Catch you tomorrow! Only $550 round trip Tampa to RDU if you want to join lunch on the 26!
  23. My weight fluctuates up and down 4-5 pounds all the time. Keep doing the right things and the scale will catch up!
