Welcome to LBT! Good luck on your first appointment!:eekB:

All right Becky, you finally made it here! :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: Girl, I am so proud of you for riding that bike again! I just knew you would! :eekB: So, you are back to being unfilled again huh? Darn, you have had so many problems with that band and fills. I need to get working with mine again, I think I got too comfortable where I was at and didn't work much with it like I should. Just when I think I need a fill, it won't let me eat something, so I think it is what I am eating and not needing a fill. Haven't been exercising either, been working too much. How are your folks doing Becky? Tell that DH of yours now he needs to get you to ride this way! :D Sherry - Your DH sounds like he helps you alot, and that is really nice! I eat sunny side up eggs too, much better than scrambled for me, must be the yolks that help. Nope, I though several times about just eating the hot dog, but it just wouldn't be a hot dog for me. Anne - I worked some more in the flower beds, I just have too many of them. I love flowers, but I wouldn't mind a bit if someone else pulled all the weeds. I'll have to get some of the preen, never tired it, thanks for the tip. I looked at it a few times, but figured it was like everthing else, junk. :D Glad you got time to get acquinted with DH again! :D Well, going to go see if the rain stopped at Nascar racing, heck they should be racing here today, it's beautiful. I am having trouble keeping myself inside, and when I'm outside I can't quit working in the flowers. I get overly tired and haven't got enough sense to stop till I can't hardly walk! I seem to find all those muscles that I haven't worked in months! :D Later!

Welcome to LBT! They say "Good things come to those who wait", good luck!

Welcome to LBT! Glad to have you here! :eekB:

Welcome to LBT! Good luck!

Welcome to LBT! There is a lot of information here just for taking the time to read it all! Good luck!

Welcome to LBT!:eekB:

My doctor said I could have a glass of wine after 4 weeks. :eekB:

Actually I can still eat all those things, I just make wiser choices now that I get full faster. I would rather eat a good meal than all junk. I do eat ice cream and other stuff sometimes though.

Me too! Just a little bit of pressure on it and it became very tender for the longest time.

If I was still losing weight, I would not get a fill. That's just me though!:eekB:

Welcome to LBT, and good luck!

Anne - I have never tried that, but I can tell you with weight loss your back will get much better. :eekB:

Beautiful pictures, thanks for sharing them!:eekB:

Good Morning, I got most all my work done yesterday, I even got some weeds pulled in my flower beds (not all of them though) and it felt so good not to be sitting at the computer all day long. I didn't have any contrat work to do so I was in heaven. It's nice to be able to do what you want to do. I am hoping to go for a ride today, although it depends on my foot. For some reason, it is really hurting me today, too much standing on it I think. Flat feet, they get you every time!:eekB: I have all my windows open and it feels wonderful in here right now! Eileen - I am glad you had a good time at the concert! I can't give you any advice on the burger, I have been eating way too much myself, and have got to get back on the wagon! I was going to start walking today too, but bad foot won't let me! Always something huh? Beanie - Hope you had a good time at the fair! Patty - Glad all your testing is done, I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed for you! Darcy - Hope you have a great time at the cabin. We put in a pitcher pump at our lake up north, it was heaven! Oh yeah, after 3 months it got easier for me not to smoke, I still had times I wanted one really bad, but not as often. I even dreamed about them for a year. You really do have the worst behind you though! Sherry - You DH sounds like a dream man! Hold on to that baby! Anne - How is that new band treating you? Pat - You know that old saying "guy don't think with their heads", I'm sure you know the rest! Hopefully he'll come to his senses! Donna - Painting is good therapy! Hang in there! We are all behind you. Dianne - Good morning! Mary - I think about you all the time, I know how hard it is to go through what you are going through. Cindy - Hey girl, you know what they say "no news is good news". I know I probably missed some of you, but it's been so long since I actually got to sit down and write a little bit. I will try to do better, I promise. Just getting a weekend of no pressure to get something done is like having a mini vacation. Later!

I agree, you need to try the solids and see how much you can eat. I can eat a lot of the stuff I shouldn't be eating.:biggrin1:

My doctor only has me do liquids the remainder of the day of the fill. He stresses for me to go back on solids the next day. I would just follow your doctors orders!

Welcome to bandland!:clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

Please stay on the prescribed eating program your doctor gave you, you are still healing and eating things you shouldn't could cause your band in not to heal properly. You need to get back on liquids right away.

Great job! She is doing great with her band, and I know with all your support, it helps her that much more!:eekB:

You look great, and I can definately see a big difference!

I'm at 2.8, but I think I am about ready for a tiny bit more. I can eat way too much again.

Welcome to LBT! I can't speak anything but English!

I have such bad reactions to it that my doctor told me not to have them anymore. My arm got so swollen up and red, I ran a fever, and got extremely sick. No more for me!

I was fine all by myself, but I didn't have a child. I got up and got the things I needed though. You DH will be able to handle it I am sure, you'll be wanting to do a little sleeping right after surgery. Good Luck!
