I never even told my Dr. I was thinking of getting banded, matter of fact I JUST told them last week I even had the band! Nana~

Wowzers! you look fantastic! Congrats! Nana~

I do I can have about 2 or 3 SMALL bites then eat the inside goodies or I get sick. Fried tortilla's I can eat I normally order the fajita meal and not use the tortilla's Nana~

The Day of surgery my Dr. had me on liquids but not clear. The hosp served me cream of chicken soup, custard, tea, milk, and something Else but I cant remember 2 years ago..I had to do liquids for 2 weeks then mushies 2 weeks then solids 1 week then mt first fill and continue solids. I have thought about doing a fasting, but every time I try I slip! I can not cook for the family and do a fast I am so weak ( I think you are doing a great job being true to your liquid stage! Congrats! Nana~

Mines is on my left side about 1 inch to the left and 3 inches up from belly button.

Well then I guess no one here uses live journal to journal Nana~

Yikes! I have been too tight twice before, I know it sucks! Once I was so tight I would throw up my own spit after it built up Can I ask how much do you have in? and have you ever been completely unfilled? Because after my bad episode of daily puking My Dr completely unfilled me for a whole month then we started over small and worked my way back up. it seems to have worked I mean I can eat again

Happy BirthDay!!!! Everyone Nana~

Today I did a 30 min Rachel brice bellydance work out followed by my 1 hour belly dance class My arm hurt from holding them up

Okay, I just got back from eating out with my family at our favorite local Mexican restaurant. It come to dessert time and I decide..the 4 of us just shared a beef fajita for 2 platter I think we can do dessert :scared: I order a fried ice cream (theirs in vanilla ice cream covered in frosted flakes and topped with honey sauce) YUM! Anyhow one my way back from the restroom I notice they have chocolate cake on the dessert platter...So I ask the lady, do you have chocolate cake? Because now I want some w/ ice cream on it And she says to me... Oh no, we only have it seasonaly... I said okay then went back to my fried ice cream (BTW all 4 of us shared 1 fried ice cream not 1 each...) Then I got to thinking...When is chocolate season? Because I'm gonna have to mark my calender!!!! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee bring on chocolate season!!! So serisly... have you ever heard of such a thing? PS please be kind w/ my typos, I have had frozen Rita's Hugs, Nana~

"Personally" I CAN eat cheese like Velveeta melted, but even 2 yrs out I can not tolerate alot of melted shredded cheese's. You the how shredded cheese gets all bloby like, it's like it sits on top of my band Now I know that I and a few others on the board, on mushies had taco bells Pintos and cheese and that went down fine :mad:

This is a very popular question there are many threads about it I think many of us can eat popcorn, I'm sure there are those who cant, or who's Dr's say not to. Myself LOVE popcorn ad yes I can still eat it even when I have a nice fill

LOL I'm glad I could share a giggle

It was posted on my space she was taking a break from LBT. I too missed her and went searching Nana~

Probably not, you need to be in full good health for the Operation I would say call you Dr but its Friday night and then weekend so you have no choice...Drink your OJ I hope it passes before Monday! If not reschedule better safe and healthy than sick and miserable

I too am 5'9 and My Dr. set goal is 150. I wore a size 9 @ 150 I'd like to be in a 10-12 160- 170 pounds I have 29-39 pounds to go for my I'm good goal and 49 pounds til Dr goal :eek: I would not want to weigh less than 140 though I know for a fact I'm too boney at that weight Oh If only I could dream away these last 29- 49 pounds LOL Nana~

Ya, It's not completely out, I just dont wanna do it until I know its something she will continue to do and enjoy :eek: Also even if she joined this other troop the troop leader needs someone to help, not sure what they call that person lol but I'd be it WE shall see Thanks so much for all the rreplies, it really did help me!
