I'm sorry if this is kind of graphic.....Last night I tried to eat a couple bites of chicken tender and I guess I ate it too fast or didn't chew it well enough, because it got stuck. (I know it's my fault and shouldn't have even tried to eat that). Anyway, I ended up throwing up, and it wasn't just a regular one. It was a very hard strenuous throw up, and now I look like I've been beat up. I look like I have two black eyes. This has happened once before. I was trying to research online the cause of the black eyes after vomiting. No, I wasn't drunk or anything like that. I'm going to bring it up with the PA at my next weigh in this week. I'm drinking liquids today, I'm not sure if maybe I had a virus or what. Not fun, anyway, and I'm not sure what to do, because I have to take my son to a baseball game tomorrow night and make up can't cover it up. Has anyone else had this problem???

I had Aetna POS II when I had my surgery. It was covered completely except for my co-pay. I didn't have a problem with them at all, but I also had a few (more than 3) co-morbidities. Good luck, I hope they approve your surgery!

That is awesome!!!! Congratulations on reaching that milestone! Can't wait til I down 100. First is to get below 200 for the first time in 20 years. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!!

That's a good question. I have wondered that myself. I am also on Adderall for ADD. I know I am way more hungry when I don't take it. I have noticed in the morning, my band feels very tight but loosens up as the day goes on, even when I take the Adderall. I've also noticed it depends on the day. I have been able to eat a steak one night and can't hold down a protein shake all in the same day. I really have to pay attention to how my band accepts anything I try to eat.

I had a bad month in March, I guess I was too comfortable. I gained 1.5 lbs. I know I ate all the wrong things, and didn't exercise enough. I'm almost 6 mos out from surgery and my weight loss is 49 ( I think ). I was so happy in my March weigh in for losing 10, now I gained 1.5 back. I am having a hard time getting motivated and making myself go walk. Has anyone else experienced this? I am no where near done with my weight loss. Not even half way to my goal. Any feedback is welcome! Thank you!

Thank you all for your comments! I was more active today than previous weeks. Still need to commit to at least 30 minutes a day. Tomorrow is a new day!
