  1. I hadmtwo bits last year and it got stuck I was 12 wks out.... this year i am 7 lbs from goal and we do not have family or guest to share with so we will treat it like another day. Imentslly could think of not eatting these hoildy meals and this year I do not feel oblogated and that just proves I eat because I was taught to eat poorly... I like being thin ...change that LOVE being thin. Good luck to all this is just a test...you'll do great.
  2. hot beverage works for me, now I make sure I stop eating that food or and take smaller bites.

  4. toxins being release is how I understood it also....more vitums and better food helps on the long run but it does take awhile to get the yuk out many of us have had it there for a loooooooong while I know I have for over 30 yrs. but love my size 12 (was a 24) jeans they make it all worth the feeling sick wprth it...lol Hope you feel better soon and keep up the great work
  5. the kitchen dissposal loves candy of all kinds and screams for more...who knew????? make my kids leave it at school any found in house the sink comes to get, it only had to eat a few for them to get the point and agree....Oh the power of the band.....it goes behond my own body...lol
  6. do you mean it wont let you eat at all or the junk you use to when u got upset? If you cant get anything down you probably should see your doctor you dont want to get stuck or sick yourself, if it wont let you eat the junk you use to out of stress then that is a good thing but drink a lot and turn to proient drinks for your health so you can be there for your friend...I am so sorry for you worries and hugs to you and your friend.
  7. every body can react differantly to differant everday day things, often it is a trial and error situation . So sorry your are going through all this and if changing works then it works good luck at figureing out the cause.
  8. binder is a super idea wish I thought of that heating pad Milk of magusim start before surgery keep it flowing homemake chicken broth ice for lots for water cans of creamed soups/with water EAS protient drinks are great yogur no pants/waist band can cause absesses on port area
  9. Havent reached goal in a year but there is no rush I still have 15 to go but love my size just put on a size 12 down from a 24 I can not remeber ever wearing this size and so I am heading to foreign contry now. Its back to the gyms and its all about the clothes not the scale now...yippee fun fun fun...
  10. tellimg ya Milk of magnusim will not let you down in will make it soft, no cramps and works every time.....did all on the market and then drugist told me about this and have been smooth and comfortable ever since.
  11. your period coming ? Gas? constipation? any of these will cause that and if you eat just before bed might also be a cause...lets us know please
  12. did the same thing yesterday doesnt it feel great ya want to have a party for your butt.....lol good job
  13. M.O.M. milk of magnisium In a year I have tried it all with not much luck MOM work fast and easy wish someone told me that in the beginning...give it a try
  14. lol food jail love that...good job you guy's isnt surprizing how in control we can be now that our stoma is like all the healthly people...I am loving being normal still can eat anything I want just dont want it much anymore...
  15. I turn to home make chicken veggie soup really its more like a stew or a pot of veggie but its hots always there and so light in calories. I lost 75 lbs that way and now that it is winters It perfect for this time of year for my last 15 lbs.
  16. Dont give and and turn this all over to God it will come in his time when you are ready. Good for you for sticking to eating healthy and you might fine some added help but getting so cousoling that never hurt anyone and can be very uplifting...
  17. I didnt worry either I had lots of support of course there was others who had horror stories to tell but it seemed they had other motive to stop me for being thinner. I am 75 lighter and love the fact that I can close my eyes and pick something out of my closet and know its fits perfectly and I look great. Pride is a wonderful feeling. As for undoing the band you just have the Fluid taken out and you are back to eating out of control if that is really something you want but you wont believe me. As you get the 2-5 fills it takes to get to the zone you will be feeling and looking great and not feel deprived at all. I don NOT allow food in the house that I can not eat. the kids have to it at school or keep it hiden and if I fine it it get tossed and a hard talk from me which of course they hate. Take this time to set up your house and take charge of yourself...most of us had to learn to put ourselves first with no exceptions.....good luck and you will do great and be happy that you did this for yourself.
  18. call now and domwhat Hazel said I didnt and got into big trouble and its a longer road back... do hot liquids that should help if not u will have to go in. Good luck
  19. Have joined a guy? Mine lets me have a trainer once a month with no charge I try to get the same one so we can work togther on moving forward..Just started back this past week and boy am I sore going to loss this last 15 lbs this year.
  20. not to sure I guess I use AOL if you could point me to the right place I would be gratful.
  21. Its the gas I wish someone had told me to talk milk of magnesum to get things moving softly that would have relieved the pressure alot faster. It usually the air in the body not in the stomache.
  22. I wish the door to door part of this hoilday would stop it reallybothers my 7 yorkies Plus it isnt as safe as it use to be. I like it to stay in church and school party's and other closly supervised places... As for this lady not worth our time she has her own issus
  23. try smaller bits (baby finger nail size) and longer wait after the bite and see how that goes. if that doesnt do it you might have to much in the band call the office and see what they think.
  24. Perfect whyn to do it.. how could they have done it wrong in the first place???good job on your WL
  25. hope you are medication. I ger MRSA everytime I have a cut that doesnt heal my doctor said we all have it in our system but once weget a flare up like you did I should go in for the test and get on meds right away. Sometime you have to be on then for weeks..Maybe you doctor should have started youn on them when he replaced the port.
