Congratulations, I wish you the best on your journey. Don't over do it!

I think you made the right decision, if that makes you feel any better, LOL. I had surgery Monday AM, home on Tuesday, Wednesday, drove to grocery store, Thursday, stopped by the office for a few hours. No wonder this has been changed to a "day" type surgery. You'll breeze through. Good Luck!

I just saw the show, OMG, she did everything, but admit she'd had surgery of some type. I don't think I missed it, I was playing Spades on Pogo, but she did admit being a spoiled person during her wedding. I just knew she was going to admit it tonight, but unless I missed it she never did, ERR!

My first fill, I hate needles by the way, I had my first anxiety attack, started to sweat, got all clammy, had to lie down, what a sissy. Well, the second time I went, the doctor prescribed Valium, I only took 1/2, then a topical to put on 1/2 hr before my fill. I didn't feel chit, only pressure when he was feeling for the port. Did I mention I hate needles, LOL.

Gosh, that's half the battle.

I hope you have insurance, if not, I'd think about a second mortgage on the house. Money you can pay back, only 1 life to live.

Since I've lost weight the breast seem to be heavier, so that will be my plastic surgery of choice, soon!

My pleasure, you've done so well, and your Bday picture is adoreable, A little blurrie, but I tried.

My DH takes effexor, I call it his happy pill, he's not depressed, just difficult to get along with when he doesn't take it, and I'm putting it nicely. I think he needs a stronger dose, but he's fine as long as he plays golf 8 days a week. Good luck on the surgery Amy in VA.

I dropped Kelly a note in the same thread, oh Kelly, I know you've been under the weather, hope you're better and can fix this for Jessie, hugs girl(s).

Just remember there are those of us who are still banded, yet we still struggle with the lack of weight loss. I know I would be struggling with the weight gain if I were in your position. I wish I could say that if my band were removed I'd have learned enough NOT to make bad choices, but I don't always practice making the best choices with the band, so I do feel for you.

Thanks for taking the time to share.

Well, are you still with us? Are you really changing your mind?

Did you check out that Pilates download. There must be a special art to doing Pilates, whew.

Darn Eileen, go back to work, you get all the credit! Happy Birthday Girl, Hope you had a special day!

My jeans are baggy in the legs, but cut into my waist. I need low rise jeans too, yall let me know when ya find them. Eileen are you sure about that port placement, that sounds odd, but then again, it might just be you, LMAO, hehehe.

Congratulations Sherry! I know how excited you must be. Feb will be here before you know it. Eileen, I'm one of those "family" bosses, LOL. Talking about calling in to miss a day, I have one guy whose grandmother has died 6 times in the last 8 years, LMAO. Anne, you made me laugh out loud with the birthday thoughts. Betty did you find a job yet? Specially after that rough day you had for your interview, LOL. Zan, I'm a fast walker too, I get irritated just walking in the mall. I swear the next time I go to Vegas and get behind those old people walking through the Casinos I'm taking a cattle prod, that'll get em movin. (did yall get that? me referring to old people, :laugh :laugh :laugh Cindy, I need to pm you about getting ideas on putting some clothes on ebay. I finally brought my "special ebay" checking account #'s home so I can start a sales account. I think if I ever did it a time or two, I'd get it, but I find it quite intimidating to start with. I'm not naming any names, but I suggested to someone that we have a "room" to have a LBT auction or items for sale, wouldn't that be neat? We'd just have to figure out how to do the transactions and agree all transactions would be handled between the buyer and seller and not hold LBT liable for anything. Just an idea. Later pals....

Like Betty said, there is so much information here, probably more than your doctor has, LOL. Pick a concern, plug it into the search option and go for it. If you don't have any luck finding a particular issue, just pm one of us ol timers of LBT, we'll be glad to help ya.

31 honey, sex or not, it's time for the girlie exam. I go to a female gyn, which I feel much more comfortable with, (personal pref). I always felt a female could better relate to our girlie symptoms and problems than a male doctor. JMO, better to be safe than sorry. Wish you luck.

Yep, I went through some minor loss, very noticeable during the shower and washing of hair, but don't notice any difference now. It'll be ok.

Mix a little swtnlow with the water or some crystal lite, it helps. I actually take the bottled crystal lite and mix with 1/2 bottles of water to dilute the strong taste of the crystal lite. Hope you feel better real soon.

Like Kelly said miracles do happen. Hugs to you and DH.

Welcome back, hope all is back to normal real soon.

Congratulations Alex, you're an inspiration to all of us, you go girl!

Happy Birthday Molly, (love the name, it's my mom's name). Hope your BD was all you hoped for.
