what kind of green chili peppers do you use. We have several different kinds of green chilis here in the stores in TX

Good luck to you all, I'm going on vacation tomorrow thru next Tuesday, but when I get back I'm going to give this a try. I'll try and peek in to see how you all are doing.

1. I use to hate to wash my jeans because I was afraid they wouldn't fit afterwards; now I want to wash them because they fit better when they are clean. 2. I'm going on vacation in a couple of days and I use to hate packing all those big ugly clothes, now I'm looking forward to packing some cute clothes. 3. I'm anxious to see how I fit in the airline seat. I'm sure no more seat belt extensions for me.:clap2:

I PB too often. I agree that it can really hurt and it takes me about three to four tries to get it all out. Last night I had a really bad one and I strained so hard that I broke blood vessels on my jaw. Today it looks like I have jelly on my jaw. I'm glad no one asked what it was. I've done this before. :faint:

I used Dr. Anderson who is in the same practice. Dr. Hagood was at the orientation meeting at the Surgery Center of Richardson along with Dr. Katz. I thought they all seemed nice. I went with Anderson because he is an Aggie (Whoop):clap2:

Good luck, my lap band friend had the tummy and boobs done in January and she looks fabulous. You're next!!!!!

Guten Tag, und Welkommen; I lived in Weisbaden for five years, 1992 - 1997. I would love to go back to visit. Enjoy your new journey into lapband land.

What is french onion. I'm thinking of french onion soup, is that what you mean.

OK, I just could not resist. Bought a pair of earrings. I can see how it could be addicting. I'll let you know what I think when I get them.:clap2:

Thanks Paula for the fish update. Yesterday I bought a big bag of tilapia and last night cooked it in parchment paper with a little olive oil, Emeril's Bayou Blast and some fresh red pepper. It was fantastic. I could eat it several times a week, but from your list it looks like I should limit it to two times per week. At least now I'll be getting fish back in my diet :hungry:

Where did you buy the cream?

I used Dr. Anderson, his office is at Dallas Presbyterian. The procedure was performed at the Surgery Center of Richardson. I paid $15,000 and that includes free fills for one year. I have been very happy with both Dr. Anderson and Surgery Center of Richardson.

Sorry, I'll be at Texas Motor Speedway --ya'll have fun.

Yes, I have to pre-medicate for cleanings.

I have a heart murmur and have taken antibiotics prior to dental work for several years. I have to take four capsules one hour prior to my appoinment. I'm wondering how I'm going to get these down.

I was banded by Dr. Anderson at the Richardson Surgery Center on Tuesday. I had a very good experience at the center. That is also where I will go for my fills.

thanks, that makes me feel better!!!!!

hello fellow bandsters: I had a very uneventful experience. Of course I've got some pain and some gas, but not horrible. I was bummed this morning though when I got on the scales, it shows that I've gained two pounds since the surgery. What is up the that????? I would think that is scientifically impossible. I'm eating exactly what the dr. ordered. Hopefully my body will get the message soon that it is supposed to lose weight and not gain weight!!!! w

I'm getting banded tomorrow at the Surgery Center in Richardson by Dr. Anderson.

When my now 23 yr old daughter was 6 decided I needed to tell her that mom and dad were Santa. (we had just moved to an area where many of her friends were Jewish and I didn't want them to make fun of her). After I gave her all the facts I asked if she understood---"she said yes and then said "Well at least there is an Easter Bunny"!!!

I'm a self pay also. I'm going to surgery center of richardson for $15,000 and includes fills for one year. I'm seeing dr. Anderson.

Paul and Leatha - I'm in Allen. My friend in McKinny was banded yesterday. I get banded on the 28th.

I'm sooo sorry. I have two poodles and until I had them I didn't realize that you can love an animal so much. I believe that pets go to heaven and he will be there waiting for you when you pass over. God Bless

My date is set for June 28th. June 14th I begin my pre-op diet. Good luck to all the other June Bandsters!!!

Hi, I'm all set for June 28th. I had to reschedule jury duty but no problem postponing it. I'm hoping my daughter who was in the car accident will be doing better by the end of the month. She requires quite a bit of care with those 6 pelvic fractures and I'm afraid I won't be able to help her for a few days. But I'm not going to postpone this. Good luck to all of you.
