  1. I have only had one fill. Since then I have been experiencing acid reflux. Hard to tell if it is from bad nerves from work or band
  2. I did also. Back to normal tomorrow
  3. Fantastic Journey
  4. I would love to get rid of my sleep apnea machine. 68 more lbs might do it
  5. I wore loose fitting dresses for a couple of days
  6. Happy New Year. I have fallen off all the good habits I was working on. A Christmas break is ok if it can be reversed Here's hoping everyone has continued success and a great year
  7. You should see the place where they sell masks. Yours doesn't fit properly
  8. Ended up being acid reflux. I had this issue before when my nerves bothered me. Issues at work
  9. I was married at 21. 30 years later after putting up with someone putting me down my whole life, I am ready to meet someone who loves and supports me. I look back now and he was most abusive at 180 lbs after child birth etc. I ate to hide. Living a new life now. This year is for me. Bring on 2015
  10. Happy New Year! I am closing 2014 with a 40 lb loss and would love to celebrate my April birthday with another 40. You have given me inspiration. I have had some small treats this Holiday but they were planned.
  11. I love to dance and try to get out every Saturday!
  12. Sending prayers. My mom had breast cancer a few years back. I went to all appointments with her. She did so well , little problems and a great outcome.
  13. I had a hernia repair done at the same time. This might have been why I needed some meds for 3 days
  14. My granddaughter got Baptized yesterday. I NEVER look forward to dressing up. I think stockings should be outlawed. Mine were easy to get into, loose but held tummy in. Tall boots that I purchased but only had on once as it is hard holding breath and leaning over same time. Slid on. Wow I felt like a million bucks. 1x instead of 3x is a huge miracle!
  15. I am on antibiotics for a sinus infection and reality is, I will be about twice a year I am having major Acud reflux. Looked in The Lapband Book, nothing mentioned about antibiotics. Anybody know of any tricks? Cures?
  16. Really good meds. I took as Doctor ordered first night and next day and then a few times at night just because I thought I would get a better sleep
  17. I stayed the night because I have sleep apnea. I think most people have day surgery
  18. My daughter and hubby and 3 yr old and baby are here for 10 days. A Baptism, celebrations and Christmas food. Doing good so far, thank you band!
