  1. Hi all, I was banded in Sep. 07. I have not had any problems with my band (so far). However, last night I drank a lot of Water rather quickly (I had also eaten dinner earlier), and after a while when I went to bed, I had severe chest pain and back pain. I also had pain my shoulders. I was sure it was a heart attack. I feel fine today...that has never happened to me before. Any ideas of what that may have been? Thanks!
  2. My favorite so far is when a co-worker said, "You need to slow down on your weight loss..." I was thinking, "Hmm...am I getting too thin?" And this was followed by, "Cause if you keep losing weight, your head will be bigger than your whole body...." Grr!!!

  9. Had a great NSV yesterday!! Some guy said I was cute!! OMG that hasn't happened in like 7 years!! Woo hoo!
  10. There is nothing wrong with venting. We all do it. And from what I've seen from all of these people venting, they all have been here a long time and they have all been helpful. I think of R&R as the "Employee Lounge" where they get away and talk about their problem customers. I work in Customer Service, and I give GREAT service while I'm working. But let me get around co-workers, and we will laugh and snort about a question we got that was soooooo ridiculous. I think it's healthy to vent. I for one appreciate the humor, and I don't feel that it's mean-spirited. If you were offended, then clearly you took it personally...and that would be your issue.
  11. My favorite right now is IDS Whey Isolate Banana!! I drink it all the time! It blends very nicely in skim milk (I don't need to use a blender--just shake well.) Yum! But I'm looking for some more flavors. Anyone know of a good strawberry powder that mixes well?
  12. Went for 1st fill appt. last Monday. The doctor decided to not fill because I'm still losing an average of 2-3 lbs. per week. So, I will be checking in with him in early January. I hope I can keep this up without the fill!
