  2. agree with mads and missy if you want to lose weight, dont let a stupid doctor convince you otherwise. mine wanted me to do the bypass because of my size.....look at me now at 7 months post op.....
  3. dang eye candy.....next time take a dangum pic so i can see WTheck??
  4. same as donna and b52, band saying woe there girl....enough is enough.
  5. ok, as farm, said, what is confusing you? and as kime said, you gotta want this (to make it work). any WLS is not a cure all and you wont wake up to being 50 pounds lighter.
  6. well since the insides are healing, and your still swollen, and new sutures why not just eat whatever and not listen to your dr?? be thankful nothing has happened......some arent so lucky
  7. 7 months ago, i was the night before too i recall thinking this is so awesome, i am about to get my life back the day before, i worked half a day and then went home...the hours flew by and it was time for the surgery... i wouldnt say nervous but excited..imagine where you will be this time next year that is what i think about often. anyhow, enough rambling by me, all the best and talk to you soon..
  8. **love this lauri** I know a lot of people that as soon as they become a little hungry run like maniacs to their surgeon to get a fill. They use the band as a starvation tool, instead of a tool to control HEALTHY portions. I lost slow, and I also contribute that to why I have no loose skin. Regardless, this has helped me more than I can express. Even though I'm not the norm, and maybe it is a bit more of a struggle for me than some, I am still 100% happy with the choice I made to get the band
  9. i agree, you can always get another fill but you cant get your life back...
  10. whatever was in your coffee when you wrote this, let me have some GF well said
  11. soso uncomfortable for pain meds day 4 to 8 for my shoulder otherwise, its doable
  12. you wont fail as this is not a diet. its a tool to help you (eat less) you got this. imagine what you will be this time next year? a hot momma you go gir.
  13. now now, i am highly concerned for you otherwise i would not comment. that being said, i know you are very recent banded with that first fill and getting yourself worked up is not helping you. all i am trying to say. patience is needed at this time. my apologies if i offended. i wont post on your posts again. sorry.
  14. a loss is a loss (in my book) water or not....again people who have (no clue) are the most vocal. just how i see it
  15. say thank you and realize you are making your self well and that is what matters. i was as tall as i was wide so that would not ever be said to me..dagnumit.
  16. liked what you wrote and agree with all of it. granted some (bad things happen to the band) but most of the time, its the person not following the banded life. i dont have any fills yet so i am (letting my band and plication) work to help me but i am also helping my tools by eating good foods in my amounts. so far its working.....i always wish the best for everyone
  17. boy you are gonna get alot of different responses. i def follow the high Protein (lean) way of life (proteins/veggies/fruit, no processed/bread/pasta/rice for me) but i am very aware of my cal intake (as 3500 cals drank/ate) is a pound and if i take in more then i burn off, its a gain)... so i kinda do both...i say if it works for you, all the better.
  18. the only thing i wanted to say is to be a failure you have to stop trying or stop giving a sh** or make excuses as i read all the time on here. seems to me you are working on making yourself well with WW and everything else. that is not a person who fails..not in my book. you are a success in every sense of the word. hang in there and do what you have to do to make yourself well. do not take no for an answer nor look at what was...look at what is now.
  19. Sh** It's cold. The end.
  20. i think i could love you :wub:
  21. my band and plication helps me (eat less) (maybe not as some of the posters are saying but i feel it helps me) and if i wanted to, i could eat way more then my precious cup. but i make an effort to stop at my allotted amount period. why do i stop, so i dont stretch or hurt myself. its common sense.
  22. preaching? if a successful person is (preaching) aka you, missy, aj, grammy, alex, jeannie, b52, then let me get in the first row pew my thoughts is this the ones most vocal (against those successful) are the ones who are not following the rules/guidelines and are just upset with themselves as this (magical) cure all hasnt worked to their (specifications) and blame everyone........successful people, the band, the dr ..everyone but the person they need to look at.. as always, looking foward to you guys next post.
  23. why is belching *burping* a bad thing? for some its a soft stop signal..i rarely burp myself for whatever reason i do baby hiccups.. i adore you rhonda but lets change our attitude to happy/life is great..nearly every post is you being upset... not good for you sweetie.
  24. oh heck yeah i was like is this for real?? can i actually do this?? but i was more excited/happy than scared. i was about to change my life and get it back.. its the right decision...go into this with all you got.
  25. well look at you ms thang a great before and after well done
