  1. Great news to have a date. You will be home by my birthday on the second! Best wishes!
  2. 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!
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. I think they are fine as a fill in. Definitely better than a lot of things I can think of!
  6. Congratulations on your surgery. I hope you heal quickly with minimal complications. Stick to your post op diet and you will soon be posted weight loss!
  7. Congrats on the surgery and beginning your journey. Wishing you great success.
  8. Welcome and best wishes for your surgery!
  9. Insurance will cover surgery, but not always the surgeon's fee? Call and ask the insurance people at your practice what gives.
  10. Great idea.... thanks for sharing!
  11. I am wondering if your tubing has disconnected from the port? Definitely call the doctor.
  12. Yep.. definitely stay out of the kitchenette! GOOD MOVE!
  13. Port should not move unless it comes loose. If it seems to move around as you press beside it, call your doctor!
  14. You are rocking it girl. Let them talk! Keep up the good work you fabulous lady!
  15. Great job! Glad you are getting it!
  16. 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.
  17. Welcome aboard. Post often, we usually do not bite! LOL! Best wishes for your journey to a healthier you!

    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!
  19. Congrats on your approval... keep the focus and you will do fine!
  20. All of your incisions must be fully closed before swimming in any pool.
  21. We've all been there. Don't let the turkey get you down on yourself.
  22. Just log what you remember as best you can. Tomorrow is another day. Make it a good one, one day at a time.
  23. Welcome. Come and visit us often and let us know if we can help. The LapBand was clearly the best decision of my life!
  24. You are so right about the drama on facebook, but we have a bit here once in a while too!
  25. Looking good girl! Keep up the good work!
