It didn't work on my work computer. At home, it only loaded the first 2 minutes. I had to refresh to get it going.. and let it completely load before pressing play. The site wasn't very stable

Completely unrelated.. sue me. But the uvula comment made me laugh. I had a uvula-ectomy.. when I was about 10. And I was going around saying I had my vulva taken out :rolleyes And anytime I said I had my uvula taken out, people do pause.

I was told shakes are alright, so I dunno. You're still on liquids? They said mix powders with your 'meal', what is your meal? If it's still liquids, ignore this.. But if you're on solids, the canned chunk ham/turkey/chicken are super high protein and low calorie.

Mine wasn't the band.. RNY.. I decided I wanted it when I was 17 (6 years ago). I was begging my parents to be on board, but they wouldn't budge. So I did Atkins.. I lost 60ish pounds, then gained it all back + 30-40lb more. By time I was 22 I was basically crippled! So I decided to do RNY with or without support.. then I found the lap-band, everyone was happy with the idea of it, so a month after finding out about it, found me a doctor, and a month or so after that had the surgery. Not looking back!

I watched that Homer thing last night, the lap-band part is like the last 10 minutes. I got a kick out of "Plastic Surgery: Fixing God's Mistakes". heh. I am getting MORE sick.. can you believe it? Now I have constant coughing fits, and it's producing nothing, so it's just annoying. And my ears hurt. My plans for the weekend.. we're going to Tenn. tomorrow to get my rings re-sized. Woot. I am going to ask them to make it just a little tight so in the event I lose more ring size, it'll still fit for a while. And since they're welding them together, I'm going to be a happy camper! TGIF!!!!!

I think my discards would swallow you whole.

Tomorrow's a new day! If you can't splurge once in a while, what's the point of living?

editty poo

At 6 months I hit a plateau, no matter what I did. Then I did the Atkins for a week, and pow.. and then since then, no diet, just eat whatever in my small quantities.. and weight loss picked back up. I'm losing average of 5lbs a week right now! WHOOT. I was afraid to point that out for fear of jinxing myself.. but I did hit that plateau for a while and it magically disappeared.

I was thinkin that's really odd, and I would personally flip out if that happened... but I've never had kids or heard of that.. must be another world out there :x

Many. :guess

I was just looking up nutritional info on the tuna.. they don't have it listed seperately so I could see.. but on a mini-sub it's 320 calories, which I think was the highest calorie mini-sub they have. It says it's made of tuna, mayo, and cheese. Might be the cheese, I didn't realize it had cheese in it!

I'm at a great restriction, and sticky thick oatmeal doesn't bother me at all. BUT.. I don't put huge spoonfulls in my mouth at once. I take small bites and I moosh it around in my mouth a bit...and chew the peach pieces.

Woops I misread, your doc isn't that slow.. 2cc at a time I would think is about right for a 14cc!

From what I hear, it takes like 'at least' 5cc for people with 10cc to get anywhere.. I would imagine with 14cc, you would end up with at least 7cc to feel anything. Just a guess, but I would not be concerned about 2.5cc in a 14cc and not feeling it yet. It's a bummer your doc is slow on the fills, mine was trying to be the same way, .5cc at a time (they thought, it wasn't going in and I was getting frustrated at not feeling anything), but after 6 months of no restriction he finally put in 1.5cc when they were able to get in my port.

I make homemade soups a lot, especially on the weekend. I make homemade chicken soup, and it really fills me up. Chili is good too. But even things like Chicken & Stars (my fav canned soup), fills me up great. And like wheet, for lunch that's about all I can get down. I get soups at restaurants for lunch, or bring a canned soup. With adequate restriction, soups can be filling.

NUM.. I never thought about getting the tuna salad.. and with peppers and onions... oh man, I know where I'm going after work. Now you got me craving

I never had any problems with oatmeal, and to this day I still enjoy my peaches & cream! It's very filling IMO.

I had problems, but I ended up pulling a muscle during the first week. Mine was from sitting uncomfortably to try to avoid pain in the incisions. I didn't take my pain meds like I was suppose to.

Contacted a board mod

I didn't know there was a 14cc band?? In any event, YOU'LL KNOW! There's no guessing 'is this it?' hehe. So just keep getting fills, you'll know

Wait.. isn't that a dildo?

Link won't open at work.. DOH! Hope it works when I get home hah hah

hah hah.. my computer geek of a husband... I sent him that link and he's already written me back of his plans to ditch me for his bot lady.

Oh dear....
