  1. This sounds delish! I wish LBT had a spot to save posts for later viewing. Hey Alex, you wanna work on that? LOL
  2. I was banded this morning, so this is my fist post in post op baby!!! The surgery went really well, only three incisions and they repaired a small hernia. So surreal to be on the "other side"!
  3. Sounds good. Can you tell me where you bought them?
  4. I had similar pain when I first started walking. I bought new walking shoes and the pain went away. I went to a local running store and had the gentleman there fit the proper shoes for my waling style, weight, etc. Now it feels like I am walking on air.
  5. Tomorrow is my day!!! Surgery is at 9am. Oh wow!! Nervous, scared and excited all at the same time
  6. Congratulations on taking the first step! This site is a great place to learn and get support.
  7. My surgery is this Friday. As far as proein shakes, I really like the Unjury flavors. Specifically the Chocolate Splendor and the Chicken Soup.
  8. Just a heads up...your ticker says banded 11/30/13...I assume that should be 11/30/12
  9. I started calling my insurance company two days after the paperwork was submitted. I wanted to make sure they had received all the paper work. I received my approval within 4 days. Best of luck to you!
  10. Your surgeon did a great job! Congrats on all your successes Missy.
  11. Looks great and love your blog!
  12. My surgery is May 17th in Central California. Only 9 days to go! How is everyone doing that has already been banded this month?
  13. I'll be banded on May 17th. Only 9 days to go!!! How is everyone else doing?
  14. Best of luck to you!

    That is awesome! Have you "broken" it in yet?
  16. I would like to know about this as well. My Dr has never mentioned this, nor have I read it anywhere during my research.
  17. Sugar free juices, crystal light, sugar free Popsicles...these are what I'm stocking up on.
  18. Congratulations on all your success so far! You are doing AWESOME!
  19. This shall be my new mantra
  20. Congratulations! My surgery is May 17th as well
  21. I'm APPROVED!!!! I absoultely cannot believe it! Surgery is May 17th and Pre-Op starts on May 3rd. So, so, so happy!
  22. I think it's really common. I'm in the same boat as you...waiting to hear if I'm approved as well.
