  3. ok, I am hungry!!!... i know i feel like i am nagging. I just had stuff that i was not supposed to have , at all!!!. so guess what i felt like my chest was about to explode... so what is next ? I threw up !!! i am getting frustrated. My husband is not supportive at all and not helpful, he had the lapband about 3 years ago and was not sucessfull i feel as if he is wating for me to fail too. i do not regret doing the surgery but i wish i had more support. i hope i can make it thru this

  11. Days out and already lost 5 lbs! Pre op 276 day of 246 6 days after 241!!! Little of discomfort , got my period and got diarrhea (thank goodness) didn't go to bathroom for 5 days! But staying positive!
  12. that was one of my biggest concerns ... i went to the endocrinologist, rheumatologist, hematologist, lupus skin specialist and so on... they all told me that other than the clotting issues i have, it was going to be good for me .... compare to all the other issues i was going to have related to my history such as highblood pressure, heart problems, stroke, blindness etc associated with diabetes which runs very strong in my family. they all agreed and said : "go for it"!!!! i have no doubt in my mind that i did the right thing for me . i am going through blood thinner injection treatment for 10 days ... other than that we are ok!! =-)
  13. u should be able to take them , except for one or two day ... i should be back on mine already ... i have to break it down..
  14. I have connective tissue disorder , fibromyalgia, sjogrens, hasimoto, and most of my problems are autoimmune related ...the doctor told me that after surgery, i would have to call him before going back to steroids for a pill that helps with the effects of the meds in the stomach. other than that, I am good to go... by the way, my surgery was on the 3rd and pain has been good, not bad at all.
  15. July 3rd here IAm so nervous
  16. And I wonder ... What the hell I about to do? That is my question this morning at 4 am . Today is my official day to start my diet (been practicing for almost 2 months) July 3rd is my date! I hope that I am not going to second guess myself about my decision. I know I need to do this ...why can't I think positive that nothing will happen and all I am going to regret is not doing it earlier??? I am so scared ????
  17. Where was this done? I am terrified with my date coming up July 3
  18. Don't know if u gotta safe early still trying to deal with the application , anyway keep us posted! I really like to others who Can understand I am from tx????
  19. I'm so sorry u Feel that way, that really scares me since my day is July 3rd. If is any consolation ; a good friend of mine was feeling the same exact way after surgery, today she is the one motivating me so I don't get nervous. She looks fabulous 70 lbs lighter and looking and feeling so much younger! I hope the spams get better and just think that there is an end to the tunnel!
