  1. I am in Jax Fla and have gone through a little set back - I was over 240 last Sep 17th and I am at 187 - should be to my goal of 150 already but I got steph infection in my port and it was removed so I just got it back in and hopefully I will be back on the weight loss roll like I was before - I work in a hospital every day - we do so many of the lap bands and I never see problems - go for it and love the feeling of seeing the scale go down. I am praying for your fears. Good luck and do it for yourself and no one else. linda (mimiinjax)
  2. I Went Through The Same Thing - You Need To Call The Dr. Before The Weekend So You Can Have Them Take Out Some Of The Saline. I Could Not Even Swollow My Salava. Keep Me Informed - I Work In A Hospital In Jax Fla
  3. I had a sleep clinic - not bad - I never slept so how did they decide I have sleep apenea? I am on the 10 day out for surgery Sep. 17th - doing the high protein low carb thing to - not bad - I have love 20 in 3 months so it is a start. I cannot wait to be on regular food - small portions - we can do anything we put our minds to is what I think. I cannot drink the protein drinks either - I have a gag reflex - but I did find a place in Jax. Fla that is an Organic Resturant that has a delicious drink that I love - taste like a regular drink - let you know the name they use. I'm planning to use that as my 3 meals a day for the first week. I think I can do this.
  4. I am having surgery on Sep. 17th in Jax. Fla. with Dr. Cywes and I work with him at the hospital every week so I am not afraid with him. I love him and his PA so I love them. I also picked my anesthesia doctor that I have worked with for 30 years in the hospital. I have to lose 60 pounds and I need to for my knees and hip. I am a little nervous about the change of our lifestyle - we love to go out. I am sure that will not stop just change the places and what to order. So glad I have made this lifestyle decision. If anyone reads this and is in Jax Fla with this surgeon I'd like to hear from you. Mimi
