  1. What does NSV mean???
  2. Congrads!!!!
  3. I cannot eat anything in the morning. I have problems drinking Water if I wake up in the middle of the night thirsty. I usually have coffee in the morning then my Protein shake. Usually by 11:00 I can eat something, fruit, cheese stick, not alot but I can get it down. My doctor says this is normal. I cannot eat bread unless it is toasted. I do not think I have tried rice yet. Steak is a 50/50 thing sometimes I can eat it sometimes I cannot the same with chicken. Fish goes down fine. I do not eat a lot of Pasta.
  4. I am having that problem with chicken breast. Now when I eat chicken I have to eat dark meat and be careful. Steak goes down about half the time.
  5. Sorry to hear about your mother, I cannot imagine what you are going through. Stay positive and you are doing great with your weight loss.
  6. When were you banded?
  7. My husband is very supportive but he is also nervous at times when I do not feel well or after an adjustment. But overall he is great...
  8. Well I went to the doctor today and I was surprised to find out I had lost 8 lbs. My scale must be off. The Dr. recommended getting a digital scale apparently they are more accurate. Dr. said he thought I was doing good. Got a small fill. I do feel alot better..
  9. I know the feeling. I have not opened up to alot of people about my band. I do not know why, just my husband, children and a few close friends know. I guess I may be insecure about it or afraid I will be one of the ones that fails at it. I am not exactly sure.
  10. I had my surgery on Thursday and went back to work on Monday. I work in an office, so no hard labor. I was fine.
  11. Thank you. I think that is alot of it, he really has not bedside manner. I am hoping all goes well.
  12. I go to the Dr. on Thursday, I hope he is not lecturing or negative because I am behind on my weight loss. I am trying. I have restriction. I feel bad enough I do not need him to make me feel worse.
  13. I get the hiccups and I burp alot (not at the same time). I also will get a feeling that I have to burp but it is stuck. I know weird.
