  1. Sounds a little weird.
  2. Sorry to hear about all your complications. Good luck on the 4 and with all your future weight loss.
  3. What an awesome idea! Thx!!
  4. Congratulations and wishing you a speedy recovery!
  5. I heard heating pads help with the gas pains, as well as walking and gas x. Congratulations and wishing you a speedy recovery!
  6. You're welcome. And I was always afraid I'd forget to take it as well, so I keep it right next to my tooth brush and take it after I brush my teeth each morning...only way I can remember.
  7. Either they don't like your answers or they just have no manners!
  8. I'm currently on the pill. But I did have an IUD Mirena for several years. Just a heads up, some people don't react well to the hormones in an IUD, I know I didn't. My hair fell out, I got bad acne, had raging mood swings, low libido, etc. I have a couple friends who had the same side effects and then other freinds who think it's the best thing since slice bread! LOL
  9. Congratulations on all your success. And your NSVs are not silly
  10. I agree with both ladies...I'd wait the year.
  11. Congratulations and wishing you a speedy recovery!
  12. Sounds delish! Thanks for sharing.
  13. I haven't been banded yet. But from what I've seen on here, call your lap band doctor...they can prescribe you something for the nausea. Hope you feel better.
  14. LOL. I haven't been banded yet either, I'm two months into my superviized diet. I also find myself addicted to reading posts Hope you have a great Christmas as well!
  15. Looks awesome! Congratulations on ALL your success! You are truly an inspiration!
  16. Congratulations! Hope you have a Merry Christmas!
  17. I'll tell you what I've heard about loose skin...it depends on so many factors like genetics and age. I would say since you are so young, it wouldn't be bad...your skin would most likely bounce back. But that is only my un-educated opinion. Personally I would rather have loose skin than to be obese :-)
  18. Congratulations and best wishes for your surgery and recovery!
