  1. If this is the case go for it "You did the research and you know what you want! Move forward...Good luck
  2. Stop the self loathing .You are strong and on the right track to at least knowing you have to change and need help.So you "pigged out" and you feel crappy and full of guilt.Remember this feeling and move on.See your doctor and get the Mamogram and take care of that medical issue.It may not be anything...I had metatastic breast cancer 3 years ago...I am still going forward....go through the process and keep the faith.
  3. There must be a need for revision other than "I want a revision "In my case my lapband was slipped and causing major internal issues.I was approved after 6 months of jumping through hoops
  4. I had my surgery the same day and am still on full liquids.
  5. Sonne#7 and Sonne#9 colon cleansers.Do the research it is an amazing product.
  6. Start getting prepared.Preop/post op foods supplies and planning.
  7. I start soft foods in 2 weeks .I just went on Amazon and purchased "Eating well after weight loss surgery "in paperback "Weight loss surgery cookbook for Dummies" "The everything post surgery cookbook" All in paper back or kindle.These are just a few of many informative,wonderful WLS cookbooks out there.
  8. I went in 2 weeks after for a few hours...it's hard.I am on limited duty .about 5 hours a day...now I see why people take 4 weeks.
  9. Hang in there ...you are making progress!!!!
  10. The kitty is just fine...look at those beautiful paws perched in perfection.What are you making?Looks good...want recipe.
  11. Yep...this is typical family ...everybody has their 2 cents to add to the mix of what's best for you!This is why I have shut mine out.Opinions not accepted.
  12. My tongue is covered in thrush.I am 2 week revision lapband to gastric bypass.It is horrible.Calling my doctor on Monday.Any suggestions? ...and I smell weird!
  13. You gotta get serious about this.Talk to your dr about soft foods diet...no sugar...talk to your dr.
  14. I don't know enough about DS.In late December I got a revision from lapband to bypass...very happy with bypass so far but it is early. You need a highly skilled surgeon for these procedures.
  15. Can't you see Oprah will have the sleeve in secret and WW will get the credit of seeing her lose weight steadily and she will look fantastic and further make WW look as though their plan is the ultimate...like Jennifer Hudson and Kirstie Alley....they secretly had WLS....the sleeve is too great to pass up if you are a star...Oprah is not stupid....she had access to WLS ...her best body yet will be the sleeve and WW will get the credit....Cha ching
  16. I avoid caffeine.I had bad withdrawal side before hand...pre op when I stopped.Headaches etc...I had major withdrawal.Not going back to coffee right now .Will stick to teas.".
  17. I ordered mine from Amazon.
  18. Like Kirstie Alley Oprah will secretly get the sleeve and miraculously lose weight on WEight Watchers.Just heard a rumor that Mariah Carey just got WLS.Her new billionaire fiancé had WLS in the past,
  19. Barimelts post surgery.
  20. You look fantastic!!!Sometimes 3 is a charm!!!:-)
  21. I am still in the process of fulfilling requirements for insurance submittal for revision to RNY. I have considered a sleeve, but after much research I have decided on RNY. I wish I had done it from the get go. I feel sleep and band are similar... I feel I have better chance at weight loss with RNY, as scared as I am to go through it... But I am soooo done with band! Make sure you have a very experienced surgeon....revision surgeries are not easy.Dont be afraid to change.
