  3. You can do it! I understand those headaches.. it is hard to comfortable or do much of anything! Keep hydrated! hope the rest of your pre-op diet goes well! My surgery is in July as well! EXCITING!
  4. Haha! Glad you are feeling great! Haha hopefully you can get home and go back to relaxing, quick!
  5. Congrats and best wishes to everyone being banded! Let us all know how you are after surgery!!!
  6. My insurance is covering my surgery %100.. and it has taken me an entire year to jump through hoops to get approval. I've never been more serious in my life about anything.. but I can see what you mean. I'd like to see a study like that!
  7. Hahaha love Seinfeld! I can barely get a shake down.. and I have not even started the pre-op... I have a week before I start! I'm worried its going to be terrible!
  8. Awww welcome! I'm in the same emotional boat as you! As for the questions about post-op... I'm not as knowledgeable in because my surgery is a few weeks out... but with all the reading I do know it gets better! I'm excited for you, I'm excited for all of us! It is a huge step and I'm always greatful that we hae eachother to talk to and ask about tips!! Hope all the best for you and hope ou start feeling better!!!!
  9. Best Wishes to you! I hope everything works out, also so happy for you and your weight loss so far! That is amazing! Keep up the good work, let us know how everything goes, if it fixes it self or you end up having surgery, regardless I hope you feel better soon and get to go back to working hard!!
  10. I have to agree with you! This entire time I keep thinking to myself... I need to have a goodbye dinner to all my favorite food, and continued to think.. I don't think I would hae enough time to say goodbye to them.. so I started thinking and asking questions to friends who have had the surgery along with my doctor.. and I chalk it up to this.. there will be foods that I will no longer be able to et, some of them being my favorite and then there is going to be some that I can still eat in moderation. As long as I'm following dotors orders, eating the right portions I can still be happy and satisfied..... I HOPE! hahahaa best wishes to you!!!!!
  11. Congrats! I love that everyone here is so open, honest and willing to assist as much as they can! It is great! Best wishes to you on the Pre-Op diet along with the Surgery. My Surgery is in July as well, I'm excited!

  14. Sounds so funny, but I'm happy for you that you started! hahaha. Hopefully it will regulate and you can have progress! I have a similar condition, its not PCOS, they thought it was... but they said hopefully after I lose some weight and start regulating I will have a better chance on concieving. Best wishes to you! I have not been pregnant but I think the band will do me wonders! XX

  18. This is great info! I currently can't have children but I'm hoping with some weight loss and other procedures I can have children! Best wishes to you and hope you get all your questions answered!
  19. Same with me! My family eats it quite often but I have never been very fond. My mum likes to bake her fish in the over with some spray butter and spices. Sometimes just with salt and pepper. Usually wrapped in foil.. This may not be of any help to you haha, but I say go for it! You never know, it may be delicious.
  20. Keep up the good work! progress is progress! Every ounce counts, every workout is a step to a better YOU.. all in time. I'm very impatient so I can see where you are coming from! I hope everything works out and gets easier for you! Let us know how you feel after you fill!!!
