  5. hehe, Thanks I've been working on our other website trufolk.com It still needs alot of work but Im doing it one day @ a time~
  6. I cant eat brocklie but I love it :bananadoggywow: I cant eat really tuff or fatty meats, I spit out the stuff I know wont go down. I also tend to eat alot of meats with my hands now because if you cut up that steak and put it in you mouth and its tuff or too fatty its gross to spit it out around people so I nibble the meat in my fingers lol
  7. Ya its like my stomach relaxed so when I got the fill at what I was at before it was too tight. Thats why I said its like starting over. Ya know how when we first got banded very lil fill went a long way and we worked our way up to bigger fills. I think if someone was at their fill limit and had been there awhile and need more fill but could because their at the limit. If they got unfilled completely and could maintain weight or not gain too much back with in a 2/3 month time that that person could come back with a smaller fill be full and have some room to fill again. Does that make sense? lol
  8. vis-bis lol ya the black plastic stuff lol my uncle helped me do it lol. We raked leveled ground laid visqueen tucked it in around the edges the laid our rocks. It was alot of muddy work but I think it was so worth it because I hant had to pick a weed in two months so far.. Now I just need to do the bigger curbed area around my house windows. pure rock were easy around the trees but I want something other than just rocks around my house lol
  9. OOPS I forgot something! Paula I had a barrium swallow done after the first occurance happened. I think if this happens again Ill have the endo
  10. I was at 1.8cc's and Dr. said I needed a fill. He put me to 2.0cc's On the way home three hour drive I was fine but had to pee every 15 min. That evening I had chicken broth and was fine but very tired. I work up and tried to eat Soup and PBed it back up almost instantly. I was really tired went back to bed woke up at noon tried Jello Pded. Back to bed dinner time tried soup pbed. Day 3 woke up didnt eat too scared now drank Water felt like it dat on my tummy for days... lunch time I tried soup again (mind you just cause I couldnt get dont mean I was STARVING by this time) That bite made me instantly puke and dry heave until I was crying. Hubby made me call Dr. as Im a real hard head.. went in next morning Dr completly unfilled me said I was very near in hosp. for dehydration my urine was "Brown" my lips and skin flakey and I had black eyes also I had lost 9 pounds in 3 days... So I went a month with no fill Next apt. Dr put me at 2.0cc water would not go down so he droped it to 1.8 ccs it felt okay to me so I left. I felt okay with 1.8ccs for about 2 weeks~ then the indejestion started and if I ate meaty things Pbed. This got worse but it wasnt the same as before so I did the normal Back to liquids let my tummy heal basic rules. I cut out anything that had spice because it gave me indejestion. By the begining of the 4th week after fill I was carryin' a bottle of liquid acid medication in my purse chewing tums and having indejestion from drinking water.... I did not want a repeat of last time so I called Dr. again Im in and again Im unfilled he said unfilled for 1 month but as the time fell we went on vacation to Mississippi so I didnt actually go in for a refill until 2 months after I was unfilled. So at this At he says he want so start me again at 1.8 too much no go..He drops it down to 1.5ccs and the water is sitting in my throat Im gurrgling and shaking my head no. He drops it down to 1.o and it sounded like drain O had been poured down my throat. This loud GURGLE GURGLE BLUP and he said there it is! So I went home w/ 1.0 ccs in my band and so far have been great (X fingers) He said it was strange how I was at 1.8 and fine but 2.0 closed me off and now w/out fill for 2 moths 1.5 closes me off so Im starting over basicly. whew thats a mouthfull and Im not checking for typos LOL
  11. ya, so far it seems to be doing okay. The google report manager says I've made almost 13.00 from visitors so far. Thats very very cool atleast I think it is.
  12. We put down bisquine (sp? sounds like bis Queen LOL) in our round curb areas around our trees..Then we covered in peagravel, we too are on a incline the Bis Q doesnt hold water and we have no weeds. we have very tiny amount of grass that wants to come up between the Bis Q and the concrete curbs easy to just pull up.
  13. I would love to have some of those bushy tiny roses are those antique roses? what kind of things can I plant in the front yard. My front yard has area around the house we have concrete curbing and Texas clay/dirt thats hard as a rock unless you wet it well. the plan is to pull the weeds and put pea gravel in the curbed area (to match the two curbed trees in our yard) but I have no idea what will grow in clay with area that is slow draining...oh and I have no idea what Im talking about plant wise the only thing Im good at growing is weeds lol Maybe I should take a picture so yall get the idea lol
  14. I have Aetna pos ins (since this Jan) and was told my fills are 175.00 and they dont cover them I was really upset because we had UHC ppo and I got surgery then Dell changed ins choices and none of them said on phone they would cover my follow up apts...So I sure hope atena starts paying the bills :Banane33:
  15. hehe, thats pretty cool you got a video!
  16. I feel for you accidents are terrible things. Were still in court over ours from 2 years ago! Man ran red light T boned us with a cop driving right behind us. Cop said he was going 50+ and even after he hit us never hit the brakes! It was the concrete wall that stoped him. We we t boned spun hit brige wall (we were on a over pass) spun some more and landed in a ditch. My hubby has 3 herniated disks and the seat up under our sons butt was all folded in up under him. I really believe if we werent in a Exployer ford We would have lost our son it was that folded up. Write down everything while its fresh in your head because who knows you may be like us still talking to lawyers two years later they ask us something and were like I dunno it was 2 years ago!

So I went 3 months 2 months w/out a fill completely empty! It's been about 2 weeks now since fill and so far so good keep your finger Xed! Just thought I'd share
