    Wow, How Lazy Was I?

    Congratulations on your weight loss. A woman in my support group brought i n a Fitbit and I fell in love with it except the price. You have a nice MIL! The woman showed everyone on the computer how she uses it and it seems to be the best. Enjoy it .I had a fill yesterday and am liquids until Sunday and then mushy for 3 days. Because of this I may reach 199 by the beginning of the week. So there is a plus side to fills and liquids. Enjoy your weekend.

    So Much Going On

    So today I go for my second fill. I do eat too much and too fast and when I eat too fast I know it. I have my son's dog since last night. My daughter-in-law is having a baby due around Xmas, last night she started to have a leak. So they kept her over night. Still no hard labor. Who knows when the baby will be born. She is at the same hospital as my doctor but no visitors in labor and delivery-so I will have to wait until the baby comes. They don't know the sex. My younger son has 2 boys, almost 5 and 12 1/2. Have a great day everyone.

    Still No Fill

    Your measurements sound great-all down. Go get remeasured for a bra. I did and was shocked! I just walked my son's dog, she is staying with us for a few days and put on my winter jacket, size 2x-huge!! A new one is on next week's to buy list. I think I am now a misses xl. Seeing lower sizes sometimes is better than the scale. Keep it up or should I say down!

    Updates

    Hello, My daughter-in-law had a boy. I guess the men in family only make boys, there are no girls in the family other than the cats and dog. Everyone is great. I think they missed calculated the date by one month. I went for my fill, and got a small one. Since my August appointment I am down 18 more pounds and the doctor was thrilled. So now I am back to stage 3 for 3 days and stage 4 for 3 days. I will lose more weight doing those diets. Enjoy the rest of your day everyone.

    Help Me Please

    Hi, I live in MA and all hospital ER's have to take all people even if they have no money. Go to your nearest ER and ask for help. Good luck. Also try to call your surgeon, maybe he/she has a heart. Good luck!!!

    My Surgery Story

    Welcome to the banded life. You seem to be doing great. I love the protein shakes. It must be the brand and flavor. I only drink chocolate and add instant decaf coffee and peppermint extract and tons of ice to make into a thick shake. As I am writing I am having mine. I hate breakfast foods and have this every morning. Just remember, chew, chew, chew. I miss bread but have it sometimes just not the whole basket at my favorite restaurant. On this site you learn a lot. Good luck.

    Noises

    Happy Monday, all. Does anyone have a stomach that gurgles everyday? Mine does every morning around 10:30-11:00am. I stay up very late and am still in bed at that time. Is this my stomach telling me get up and have my protein shake? Also, talking about noises, I burp a lot and hiccup. Is this normal? I am seeing my surgeon Thursday for my second fill. I think I have been eating a little too much at each meal, but when I am full I stop and don't push it at all. Enjoy your day, it's getting cold in Boston.

    Fad Diets And Lap Band: "this Is Not A Diet"

    Great blog. I may even buy the book. I will only buy a medical type book if it is recommended. Thank you! You look super.

    All About The Fit......

    Wonderful story and a successful shopping day at Talbots! Very nice MIL. I have a nice MIL who buys me things. I never think of going to Talbots and there is an outlet store not far from me. Thanks for the idea. Keep up the good work, you deserve it.

    I Feel Better After...

    I am 62 and still have black heads and sometimes pimples. I thought they left the body in the teens-wrong! I need to get a facial and have the tech make my skin look better. My husband's routine sounds likes Ty's. Why-because we wear makeup and try to look good. Toodles.

    I Feel Better After...

    That sounded so wonderful to do something nice for yourself. I don't want to be a spoiler but I was at the dermatologist a few weeks ago and he said never use alcohol, witch hazel or any toners on the face. I have used toner, Lancome, for about 30-40 years on mine and now have stopped all. Enjoy the rest of the weekend and new week.

    2 Weeks Post Op, Mushy Foods And Thanksgiving

    Good luck with your band. Are you allowed spaghetti so soon? I know I wasn't. But then every doctor is different. eating so soon can make you sick. I hope you don't get sick.

    Right Here, Right Now.......

    ​I am also obsessed with the scale. I get on too much, like 3-6 times a day. Awful. I have been between 207 and 211 for about 6 weeks. I hate it. I would love to see 199 by January 1st. Everyone goes at different paces. Have a wonderful holiday.

    When It Rains... It Pours.... Literally.

    Sorry to hear about your awful day. I get stressed and crazy when things like that happen, also. Just don't eat Twinkies. Is the business trip to somewhere wonderful? enjoy your Thanksgiving.

    Need To Get Moving

    Hello, try eating protein. I love to snack on lump crab. I have also bought Soy Chips, they come in different flavors and they are protein. I buy unsalted almonds and put some olive oil in a pan and cook them and make them more roasted and keep them in the refrigerator. They are a nice crunchy snack that fill you up. Ask your dietitian for ideas, that is why they are there, to help . I would also like to be under 200 by January 1st!!!! Good luck and Happy Thanksgiving.

    Trouble

    Tell the doctor right away. This does not sound right. You may need to an x-ray to see if everything is in place the proper way. Good luck. I learned, never hide anything from the doctor.
