  1. Of you paid you need a refund or was it covered under your nat. Health care? Sucks nonetheless.
  2. What pain? Didn't have to take Any narcotic pain meds at all. I refused the Toradol cuz I didnt need it.
  3. 8 wks, a few bites only, hit the 40 lb mark today
  4. I have Fibroids and it was no issue at all. Some Drs are really thorough Im glad mine didnt need all that.
  5. I dont think age has anything to do with it, my surgeon has done teens. Hes done whole familes.
  6. Pelvic exam??????????????
  7. Have not shed a drop of sweat since surgery, in fact Im freezing cold all the time.
  8. I have a remedy for that, google what they put in that crap, it may cure you of it.
  9. Sounds good except for the beets. Don't like the taste or texture.
  10. I realize its a tool, knew it going in its just scary.
  11. I have so much hair I prob wouldnt notice but I take my vites.
  12. I just saw Carnie Wilson on a talk show and mind you she had a lap band surgery in Jan 2012 after her initial gastric bypass in 1999, and she looks even bigger than she did on her tv show still holding on. She says she lost 30 pounds. I dont see it. Is it really possible to regain weight even with the lap band? I was shocked that she gained all of her weight back having children. I just feel sad for her. Im just a little scared that this could happen to me. This is why Im in therapy to prevent this kind of thing. Can you imagine how she feels having 2 wl surgeries?
  13. I had the same thing but my surgeon told me to get to Er stat. They do a doppler sono and mine was a pulled muscle but it eased my mind
  14. Congrats Rosie, you prob added 20 years to your life!
  15. I've been clean 7 yrs so I know where youre coming from. I had mine Jan 30 and am down just shy of 40. Have you thought of therapy? I see someone cuz did shopping, sex, food next is Gambling lol therapy helps me a lot.
  16. Good luck to you. Im so glad I never smoked, I see all these commercials with people who have holes in thier necks, lost legs, fingers etc. I know what its like to give up an addictive substance but It can be done you have to want it bad enough. Can you imagine having this surgery to get healthy and your looking good but you drop dead of a smoking related disease. I will pray that those who quit for surgery stay quitted after.
  17. I read a lot about women still having to cook for Husbands and kids, I understand the kids but why cant some of these husbands cook for ghemselves and the kids? I told my husband and 13 yrold before my surgery, youre on your own dudes. Give him a can opener and a can of soup. I eat what I eat and they eat what they eat. Just saying
  18. No longer in the Us? I just was Rx`ed them last November. Didn't really work Anyway.
  19. Jan 30 start weight day of surgery 247. Today Ive been going back and forth between 210/211. I set small goals such as now My goal is to get to 199 then it will be 180 and so forth.
  20. I got a taco salad from TB last night and could only eat 5 bites before I got extreme pain in my stomach. I am almost 2 mos out and could never eat 2 tacos. I would die.
  21. What the hell? Your husband doesn't want to get out of bed to take his children to school while you cant drive due to recovery? Sorry but hes a loser
  22. I'm a total pickle junkie
  23. I've never stepped foot in either of those stores but I loved Fashion Bug and Dress Barn cuz they both has plus sizes and small sizes. But I do get thoze damn catalogs from woman within ( ugly, granny clothes) . I also loved The Avenue but they left my area.
