  1. My husband is great.. He has always told me he loves me fat, skinny, bald or disfigured it doesn't matter and it was all up to me.!
  2. When I eat certain things and then I got sick.. Think maybe I didn't chew well ? Maybe I should not eat this anymore?? Thoughts and experiences please..
  3. I requested all of you guys on there!! Thank you so much..! It's from Jamy Duran..!
  4. Just tried it, I had been using another site and fitness pal is so great! I absolutely love it.!! If you haven't checked it out you should..!!
  5. Hi!! I have had two fills, my latest was two weeks ago Friday. I was pretty tight, I actually threw up ( tmi sorry) twice .. I have not lost in the last week but I didn't over eat calorically I'm very careful.
  6. I don't eat a lot but I stop myself and am satisfied however I could do that ten times a day if I wanted to. The only time I actually have to stop is if I haven't chewed well and get stuck
  7. You need a fill if ?? A) you don't get full fast or after a small amount you just don't stay full long C) both D) neither Having some issues and needed to ask.! Please help. Thanks guys..!
  8. It's watermelon and it's like 96% Water... It can't make that much a difference .
  9. Funny but I couldn't wait to post this to you guys, I think this site is my new Facebook lol! Anyway my first NSV I got a pair of dress pants today with BUTTONS INSTEAD OF ELASTIC.. May be silly to some but I have not bought button up pants in years and years.! It made my day.. Jamy
  10. Don't get me wrong, I dont regret my decesion to get the lapband, but today is just one of those days that I struggle. Not with wanting to eat a lot but rather just to be able to eat some things I use to preband. I have successfully eat a scrambled egg, a Protein shake and some mashed potatoes. I tried ( for the first time) to eat a baked pork chop and found out quickly that it is now among the list of things I can no longer have. It's worth it because my weight loss has been steady but I just felt like venting, that's why I subscribe to this site because I am sure some of you have felt the same.. Tomorrow is a new day!

  11. Just trust your band!! You cant live your life reading labels.. You haven't even had your first fill yet .. You will do great, trust me when you get in the green zone you will know it.!! Trust all you have learned and trust your band.. These very words come directly from my nutritionist when I was waiting for my first fill and also discouraged..! That was just a month ago and once I just started to do these things the weight has started falling off.!! Good luck, you can do this just relax and take a breath!!
  12. Just how big of a role food played in my life, it seems like everything is centered around food.. Now that I don't eat much it is an adjustment I didn't think of having to make in this journey... Now I guess I just blog with you guys to fill the void.. I'm good with that!
