That's probably why you can get spaghetti sauce out of a white shirt with it.LOL Been there, done that!

You can chime in with me any day!!!! :wub: I heard that too Jean. These are the questions people need to ask before going into surgery.

Welcome Fatnfluffy! Sounds like you're going to have to change your name soon. Congratulations on beginning your journey. There's a lot of very helpful people here, so join in anytime. Remember there are no stupid questions here. Need an answer, just ask.

Did the taste shock you??? LOL, I think carbonated water is sooooo gross.

You're Rocking it Miriam!!! I agree, baby food, not so much! Most babies don't even like it.

Marketingdude, Do you know what kind of band Dr. Kuri uses? When discussing different bands with my Bariatric Surgeon, my choices being Realize or LapBand, he told me that the Lapband sees to have more restriction from the get go than Realize. I have talked with a number of people that have lost 100lbs. with Lapband and have never had a fill. I'd be afraid to have a Lapband and a fill and find out it was too tight right from the start. Just thoughts I'd chime in... Thoughts???

Gave me goose bumps, Thanks for sharing.

Chiming in.....Jean, first of all glad you're feeling better. Second, didn't bariatric office discuss importants of drinking H2O with some of you??? I can understand accidently drinking carbonated water(grossj/s), but plain Water really????

Great advice Cooper! Hope you're better soon.

My mother in law told me I needed to go on a diet, I weighed 122 lbs. She put me on a diet and I lost 10 lbs and then gained 20, continued until I hit 274. I wish I never went on this first diet!!!
