  1. again,,, do you think you may need a fill.... cause even if you had snacks, you wouldn't need that many.....
  2. well that's a big problem for probably most of us, or we wouldn't need the band.... but if you're snacking, i would make sure it's nothing really soft, cause, it will go down easy, and would not satisfy you... maybe you're ready for a fill..... so dinner will stay longer, or your snack would be harder to finish. :phanvan
  3. my doc only had you on liquid 24 hours... i had no problem going to food,,, just remember to chew well, you will learn how fast you can eat, and how much you can take in... i had 1.8cc in i still need a pinch more... everyone is different. you just have to see how you can progress.... hope it helps...
  4. is there any chance your stomach pouched above your band, that happened to me i could eat anything.... had to have band replaced...it sounds really strange that there is no leak.... they check each time?? pull out the same amount they put in the time before?/ i wonder if there is a pouch in the tube leading to the band, like a bubble in your car tire.
  5. wow... i can't believe they make you go 6 days after with mushies.. my doctor says liquid that day, then normal...
  6. have you talked to your md about this??? i know for me, my stomach is much tighter in the am, so i know, i can't rush or eat big in am, plan for this. but as the day progresses, i can eat more... see if you need some kind of adjustment. talk to md.
  7. my dodctor never said to eat or not to eat. but, if you must eat, eat yogurt, or something that will empty quickly from your stomach. because, they need to fill and empty while taking pictures... don't eat to close to appointment either.. hope it helps.
  8. i would get the fill when the weight loss stopped.. i did get mine after 6 weeks cause, i felt i could still eat way too much. hope it helps.
  9. well,, i don't exactly know which has more benefits, but i get terrible rumbling, and diahrea,(sorry) with whey protein. i asked the md, he said that it more common to get diahrea with the whey comparing to soy, or others.. hope it helps.
  10. jodie.... how did you loose all the weight before the day of op??? impressed, and wondering... ro

    greg, don't you think the customers are gonna wonder why it's taking over an hour for you to measure them for a bra???
  12. roro33 replied to paula's topic in The Lounge
    penni, as pretty of a picture that sounds to be..... they measure under your breast, then around the breast that determines the number and size of the cup...they do it in your current bra... i'm sure they would adjust after trying them on too.... hope in Enlightened you... haha ps dylans mom,,,, i put my post, didn't know you had just said the same thing...

    i just saw in the paper, jc penny is having a special with bras they said in the paper, there are people there to measure, and make sure you get the right fit... hope it helps.

    underwires for me... if you go to a "bra" store, or a higher end store, they will measure you, and tell you what you should really be wearing... i just get a bunch at the store and try them on, see which one looks best...
  15. nana, there is a chance of numb nipples, but not in every case.... i would propable take numb nipples over back pain, and ones that give me black eyes when i run..... greag you kill me..... i never know what i'm gonna read in your posts....
