My doctor said you can't do anything to help it, it is growing back as we speak. He told me to feel up in my scalp and I could acutally feel the new hair growing back in. Mine got really thin, but then all of a sudden it was back really nice and pretty. Don't worry, you won't lose all of it!

Good Morning Y'all! It's storming/raining again this morning! I sure wish I could send some of this to anyone who needs it! Darcy - I am so happy to see you back again, I have been worried about you! Just take a deep breath and relax, things always seem to work out in the long run whether we worry about them or not. Hugs! Patty - They grow up so fast! Enjoy them while you can! Happy b-day to Abi! Hope she had a good one. Eileen - Boo back at you girl! Man, I am 20 min. late getting in the shower! Gotta run, good morning to all of you that I missed. I'll catch up later!

Good Morning Y'all! Storming in Texas, AGAIN!

Welcome to bandland! I'm glad everything went well for you! I also had a hiatal hernia repaired that I didn't know I had.

Welcome to LBT! You have done an amazing job with your band, I'm sure you'll be back at goal in no time at all!

Good luck! I love that the band is always there, waiting for us if we mess up!

Welcome to LBT, and to bandland! John, just because you can eat that stuff, doesn't mean you should. This is a time for healing, and you aren't supposed to eat anything to make your stomach work/churn. If you are extremely hungry, call your doctors office and see what they recommend. They started me on mushies at 2 weeks, then solids at 4 weeks, but not all doctors do that. You really do need to follow your doctor's orders.

I can eat bread and rice, but don't do it everyday. I can pretty much eat everything, just in smaller amounts. I have trouble with some fruits some times, but not all the time. Sometimes I can eat something one day and not the next, but then again on another day. I just try it and see how it works, you'll know if it's not going to work that day.

I've been having trouble with it all day. Just keep trying!

I can't use the artificial sweetners, so I just use regular sugar. I have tried them all and I have a bad reaction to all of them. I just watch how much I use and it works just fine.

Whooooo Hooooo! Congrats to you!

Welcome to LBT! It's always nice to hear from people who have had their bands for a while!

Welcome to LBT! Good luck! I really love your name!

Welcome to LBT! Congrats on your surgery date! It will be here before you know it!

Wow! That is super! You have done an awsome job! You should be very proud of yourself!

Welcome to LBT! Good Luck in your journey! Keep us posted!

Welcome to LBT! Good luck with your journey!

Welcome to LBT from one Texan to another! Good Luck!

Welcome to LBT! You'll find lots of support here! Start reading all the old as well as the new threads, and you'll get lots of information. Good Luck!

I think I would wait to get all my tests in before I decided on anything. You might be able to have all the fill removed and do some medication to see if it helps you. Good Luck!

I have had 6 fills, and not one has hurt me. I was filled and over with before I knew it.

It's been doing it to me all day!

Good Morning Y'all! Hopefully the rain is done for a few days! We always need rain, but enough for a while! Come August we'll be crying for some, but right now it's getting awful with all the flooding and mud! Kat - You really need to put your foot down now, before the whole summer. You just need to tell them they need to take turns, that you can't do it all yourself anymore. I totally understand about the dicipline stuff, I had a step daughter that didn't take care of her son when she brought him over. I just planted a bunch of flowers in by my back door and he pulled them all up! I was mad, and guess what? DD and DH was laughing about it! I told him from now on if he didn't take care of him when she brought him over, hell would break loose. I had things like blood on my carpet because he was throwing a fit after cutting his toe and she wouldn't pick him up and carry him, he wanted to walk. Once we were sitting down having dinner with my DH out of town Aunt and her family. DD didn't help prepare anything, I cooked all day long, we sat down and she sat down after pulling the son up to the table far away from her. The son was throwing a fit, tossing things, screaming, yelling, and it upset everyone at the table. These folks were very well mannered and I am sure they didn't allow their children to do things like that. The daughter just sat there, eating and ignoring him. I gave my DH a look from hell, and he finally got up and took the boy in the other room. He gave up his dinner, and his visit with his kin folk while she sat there eating away. I can't tell you how upset that one made me! Anyway, glad that Rick is doing so much better! Dianne - Get some rest, you'll feel much better now that it's over with. Mandy - Prayers are still being sent for Abi, as well as you. I haven't had any problems posting, but it signed me out 3 times this morning! Gotta run out the door, have a great day!
