  3. I know the fear of vomiting. Don't be afraid of calling the Dr.. I had the same problem and waited 3 days before I called. Dr. Said It was the pain Meds , was better by the time the last med wore off. Call Dr. To make sure. For me the pain was'nt half as bad as the gagging. This too shall pass!!!!'

  7. I had the same pain. Mine was gas trapped . See if walking,gas-x or rubbing that area will help. It's very normal according to my nutritionist . Joni2

  11. Lv your post B52. Helps to see where I need to be. I seem to find it and then loose it. I'm sure I will find the green zone eventually.
  12. I was just like Honk. Now when hubby & I go out, i either have food for a couple of days or, we split a meal. Single serving foods last twice as long.
  13. I too have had to struggle through the holidays. This is my first season with my band. So glad to see I'm not alone. It has given me real insight to the many reasons I use food as a comfort. I am getting back on track& yes it does feel so much better to be on track physically. It is amazing how much I have learned about myself by listening to my tool!!!!

  26. Luv , luv, luv, this post my thoughts exactly! Special thanks to B52 for starting this thread. Joni2
  27. Congrats on the new baby! You now have the best reason in the world to get back on track. Your child deserves a healthy active life with you. If you get this off now he/she will never have to know you as the I can't person but the let's go person who can do anything she wants with her child! Joni2
  28. My biggest fear is not finishing what I have started . Don't give up! Remember how hard the liquid phase was and the gas. You look you g on your picture. I'm 61 and wish I had this surgery when I was young. I've missed out on a lot but, I'm making up for lost time and loving it. Don't go back you deserve it. Bad knees, being out of breath is no respecter of persons or age. YOU CAN FINISH. Do it for yourself . Joni2
  29. Minime is reading alot of minds mine included. Joni2
