Well I'm in my 30's (I know this post is in the 20's section) and my excess skin isn't too bad. I think I could be a candidate for a tummy tuck, but I want to maintain my weight for a while before thinking about that. Stomach isn't really too bad, but more something I'd do as a gift for myself. Overall the skin issue is ok, and I'm definitely in the gym toning as much as I can.

I ate those fiber gummies and finally had success about 6 days post surgery.

Did he say you could walk? I was allowed to walk before getting the official clearance for the gym and full workouts.

Happened to me too! Trust me the weight will come off. Slow and steady.

Quick question...Myth or Fact?

I had a .25 unfill a couple months ago. For the first 2 weeks after I felt like I was eating too much and thought about going for a re-fill. However I think it was mental head hunger and soon I felt better. My tightness varies from week to week. It's so odd but I know related to stress and hormones.

Good luck. It will be here before you know it. I had those same feelings!

I've had both food poisoning and a stomach flu since getting banded. Throwing up was unavoidable. I just did best to stay hydrated and check in with my doc. Thank goodness nothing wrong with my band

If I'm running a 10k or less, I'm ok with water and no breakfast. I sometimes eat the power bar or clif block gummies. If I'm going farther like a half marathon (13.1 mile), then I need to wake up earlier to try to get some food in. There is no way I could run for 2+ hours on an empty stomach. One time I was too tight in the morn and couldn't really eat....I felt horrible at mile 7 (with 6 more to go yikes!) I learned my lesson.

How do I kick the soda
kah1213 replied to jujusmommy07's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I used to drink diet come almost every day. I stopped during pre op...cold turkey. I now drink crystal light and diet snapple. I will be honest, I still crave diet coke occasionally, but it's not worth it. -

You can do it! I just ran my 4th half marathon last weekend. It's hard, but worth it! Good luck. I used a beginner training program I found online. It helps you get up to the right mileage for race day.

I burp if I've eaten too much or with certain foods.

You should be fine with Tylenol.

I stayed at hospital overnight after surgery. I had to do the barium the next day before I was allowed to go home. It tasted gross, but not unbearable...plus at that point i just wanted to go home haha. I haven't done it since. Some people do it when they get fills.
