  5. Hey folks, It's been a very long time since I posted. I've fallen back into old patterns and am in a funk. Here are my excuses: 1. I HATE the new format of this board. HATE IT...I click on Forums to change it back to the old way, but sometimes I forget and the other format just totally drives me nuts! 2. I was too tight---could barely eat solids for three months...bad plan..got a slight unfill and have been porking on everything I oculdn't have for three months. 3. Had surgery in July...Couldn't exercise or lift my kids and needed to totally chill for 6 weeks...not moving quickly becomes a HABIT... 4. Totally eating too much... So there are the excuses...now I just need to stop pigging out...Have a fill scheduled...Oldest is back at preschool...can get back out with the twins ... MUST DO THIS>>>> Any words of encouragement??? Good to be back... Rainer

  9. I have three children who are under the age of 4 and I get kicked, hit, stepped on, etc constantly... I'm sure you are fine, but you should certainly call your dr. to make sure! Best of luck. Rain
  10. Since we moved (June 7th) and since I removed some of the Fluid out of my band (I was so tight I wasn't able to eat anything but liquids), I've been eating like a total pig and have gained 10lbs. I'm dealing with some post surgery (had TVT placed on Monday) issues, so I'm hoping it's not actually 10...but it's still there and I'm still stuffing my gob. It's weird, it's like I do GREAT all day and then, at night, I'm Jabba the Hut...Ugggh! So, I figured for 10lbs, I have to have to have to change my ticker...and seeing the BMI move back closer to morbid obesity, I am hopefully disgusted enough in myself to get back on it. I know you all don't need to know this, but I'm sure some people will read it and then I'll feel like I'll have to get back on it...I've got a lot of supporters to make proud! and myself Thanks for letting me spit it out- Rain
  11. yes. this is what happens when i don't chew enough- it's the food sitting on top of the band check w/ your dr. rain
  12. yes...I hate looking at my wedding photo..I looked and felt awful!!! I feel like I've been re-gifted my 20s...I just turned 32 last week and my 30s already kick my twenties butt!!! Rain
  13. I had NO problem getting on and off the toilet or wiping myself. I was a 28/30-- hope this is not a problem for you either! Rain
  14. go to a proper bra fitting store. You'll find one in the yellow book... My obgyn was adamant that I get a proper bra fit...and I'm not very large chested. He just felt that my breasts deserve proper support or they will sag and be in pain. However, I nursed my twins until they were 20months (after my surgery)...and my breasts are so not even nearly attractive in the least. Rain
  15. If I use your analogy, I've lost all three of my children (42lbs, 36 and 36)--- We were walking this weekend and my 4 year old wanted to be picked up...I didn't even make it .5 mile....too heavy and hard and I was SWEATING!!! When I'm at goal, I'll have lost the dog as well! Rain
