  1. Let's face it, we won't always be around skinny, active people all the time. The way I see it, no matter who you are with you just have to stick to your decision to change your lifestyle or else we will have done nothing!

  5. So happy for you ladyLeigh! I was banded Friday and the gas is the only thing bothering me. Careful, I have always known that hot or cold gives more gas! Dr said room temp! Ask about that all Dr's are different! Happy for you!!!
  6. Sodium = high BP and water gain!!! Low sodium is the best! I mix the Knorr tomato with Knorr chicken or meat! You won't miss the sodium!
  7. Nice to meet you! Glad you decided to jump on the wagon! We don't know it all but we're here to help each other through this change! The best decision we have made for ourselves! A lot of good people here! Welcome home! My date was also 12/14, here in Tampa, FL, by Dr. Lee Grossbard.

  12. Merry Christmas to all of my best girls at LBT. I wish you all the very best in the coming year! May God shower you and your families with His blessings!
  13. I too was banded this week. I had no complications and I am feeling some discomfort but It is all worth it! I weighed in at the hospital and had lost 15 lbs. on the preop liquid diet. Now, day 3 post-op, I have lost three more! Don't be afraid! The best is yet to come!
  14. Good morning Everyone! I'm on my way to the hospital. Anxious, scared, and nervous!
  15. I have not had my surgery yet until tomorrow! But I have had abdominal and laparoscopic procedures done with local anesthesia and never again!!!!!!! The pressure you feel is so scary! Never more!
