  1. Hey June and Weevie I'm good but several things I'm dealing with -cannot sleep flat or on side so I'm using a bunch of pillows (tightness and seems hard to breathe). My friend told me that it's getting use to the port -stomach growling like crazy so trying to get the fluids in -my stomach is still swollen but nothing is coming out. Lol All and all I'm doing good. I went back to work today and tomorrow half days so I'm on my way. Any ideas on liquids? I've just been having Soup, Atkins, waster and Popsicles Take care . I'm so glad I've made friends on here. I took a picture of me in a bikini....OMG I'm so happy I got banded. I'll post before and after pics later lol It's not pretty!!! Lol
  2. Glad you are ok Weeviegirl I've been thinking about you. I had my surgery Friday and all seems good.
  3. I totally agree... I've noticed that most of the negative comes from people who did not follow their Drs instructions. I chose to ignore. I had my lapband this past Friday and doing great. I want this and the only person to stop me is ME and that's not gonna happen. Time to get H&H which means Healthy and Hot!!!!
