I feel amazing. Had surgery in May of 2013 and I'm 102 lbs lighter. I lift weights so I also feel stronger than I ever have in my life. I can't wait for onederland! Almost there, only 15 more lbs.

I have to go with Spartacus for mine. It will never surrender, back down or give up in a fight. It will stand up for me no matter what, and takes crap from no one.

I was so excited about the plane seatbelt I took a photo! Just before surgery I was using an extender. Look at the room left on that strap now! I'm 99 lbs down, surgery was May of 2013. I went from a 26 to a size 14. Bra went from 46dd to a 38c. My energy is through the roof, and I love lifting weights! Yay for lapband!

Omg...how excited are you!!

I feel like a new person! Loving my Lapband!

That's fantastic...such a great job and super inspirational!!

Wow...you look fantastic.

That stinks that it took them a few pokes. We're you laying down? Do they offer it under fluoro? Glad they got it taken care of feeling feel is great' date=' unfortunately my hunger had come back [/quote']

I was laying down. The doctor mentioned flouro but hadn't used it in years he said. They were excellent and once they got it he drew a pic on my chart so they'll find it now.

Creekwood...I didn't even recognize you in your new picture! Keep up the good work!

Honestly Creekwood...you look fantastic!

My nurse couldn't find my port at first and then neither could my surgeon. They did locate it...after quite a few pokes...but they did say the first one is always the hardest. They were lovely to me...I had one cc put in and that should take me to about 4. Feeling full all day and loving it!!!!

Me either on the stuck part but I am looking forward to not caring about when my next bite of food is. I'm about to leave for my appointment...and I'm looking forward to it!!

I'm supposed to get my first fill tomorrow...kind of freaked out...but I am getting super hungry now. Perhaps just a little fill? We'll see what's decided tomorrow.

So I saw the Dr today I have lost 15 pounds since pre op diet

That's so fantastic...congrats!

This liquid diet sucks

It really does. When you get your first scrambled egg you' re going to think it tastes like the best thing on earth...

Out of the hospital. When I was in the hospital walk 6 times

nice one!!

To everyone I am do great some pain

I think that means your having pain...it gets better...I promise.

Good luck SJ...you'll do great!!

Liquid stool softener would be Colace and I bought mine otc.

Holy hell...you look fantastic!! Congrats on the 5k...so motivational...

My nut didn't recommend the gummies because they don't normally include minerals...only Vitamins. One of the minerals provided helps control hairloss so I'm back to the horse pill variety. I take 50+ Centrum chewables. Not because I'm over 50 but because its one of the only chewables out there that had everything she recommends.

Good luck.

This works on mushies, soft foods and regular diet...not liquids.

1/2 cup of Ricotta cheese

1 tbsp of cocoa powder

Sweetener of your choice to taste (I used about 2 tsp.)

Stir it up with a fork our if you have a magic bullet blend it to really get it smooth.

What an awesome treat.

You could also use sugar free jam of your coffee and make it strawberry, or any other flavor you prefer.

Delish!!

Checked with my nut before poising this website. All can say is wow...what a great idea to use muffin tins as it really keeps your portions in check. I think my favorite will be the buffalo chicken meatballs.

Hope you all enjoy!!!

Called the doc and the nurse started that its been irritated so its going to be swollen. I'm back on liquids for 12 hours. Serves me right for not paying attention. She also recommended that I walk as that helps increase the movement of the food through the passages. I will NEVER do that again. I need to practice mindful eating...
