I absolutely snack I stick with things that are low calore or are healthy like some cheese or my favorite Snacks are pickles

There is no reason it shoukd work differently after surgery

@Lexigurl8 Thank you, and i hope it goes well for you too And thank you everyone for your words and support. I am currently living with my parents and they have been super supportive. I actually went back to our apartment to pack up some things and for the first time i didnt leave crying

She should get a goldfish and flush her husband down the toilet. LOL....I have a cat does that count?

I try not to put anything on my plate that i cant or shouldnt eat because if its on the plate im going to want to eat it

I want to say i dont wish anything bad on him but yeah part of me does want him to get shut down..or to date her and break up and realize how good he had it with me hehehe

Nobody said you can't fail

Thank you everyone

I've heard they are prone to failure before. Did your doc mean the equipment itself breaks or the band doesn't do as promised? I've heard both, they are prone to slipping and people have said it's easier to eat around it

I am definately trying to move on. Hasnt been easy

In the beginning he was nice and loving. After some years he changed. But by then i loved him and walking away never occured to me. I know now that it was for the best and i actually wish it happened sooner so i would have been younger. But this is still pretty new and has been a hard habbit to break. He was my best friend

No im not living there but we still communicate refularly. I am trying to move on but he has been my lifr for the past 12 years. Its hard to just sever the ties

I'm sorry to keep talking about this, but even if nobody answers I don't have a lot of friends to talk to and it helps to get it out So I've posted before that I'm getting divorced. Recently my husband told me that a big part of the reason for him was that we were sexually incompatible (why didn't he say anything years ago?) One of the things for me was that some of the things he wanted to do I was uncomfortable with but I tried..some of the things I just didn't like or didn't feel good. Recently he started saying things like "well most people like this" or "normal people enjoy this". No matter how many times I would say "well I'm not 'most people' i'm me" he never got it and kept pushing. Fast forward a little bit and I found out that he was talking to a friend of his often about sexy time...and this friend...well she is a topless burlesque dancer, has a husband but sleeps around with tons of other guys and has been pushing him to date one of the other girls they are friends with. I have nothing against the way she lives her life, but I think it's fair to say that her idea of what is "average" sexual "normal" probably isn't what most people would agree with. I mentioned that to him and he didn't understand at all what I meant last night he also told me that he had invited this girl that he likes over for dinner and was going to cook for her. He also didn't understand when I told him that sounded like a date...and he told me he didn't want to think about until the divorce was final. Also he didn't understand how another friend that he's known since he was a kid made him dinner and that wasn't a date, but cooking for the girl he has a crush on is a date. I've also been finding it so hurtful that this girl he wants to date has some of the same habits and characteristics that he said he hated in me

I'm in New Jersey but I didn't use any of those. If you like I can tell you who I used and I absolutely looooooved them

unless you eat horrible food all the time, it's really hard to fail with the sleeve. From what I've been old the lapband is very prone to failure, my surgeon doesn't even like to suggest them

I had gallbladder surgery years ago and that left similar scars I think appendectomy leaves similar scars too

I used Dr. Glasnapp Their website is www.njbariatriccenter.com

I love sharp cheeses. A good parmesan is one of my favorites

Oh yes I had back pain. Some of it is usually from trapped gas from surgeru and some is just muscle fatigue

I am in new jersey but didn't use any of those doctors. I can SUPER HIGHLY recommend my doctor.Her office is with a bariatric center in the Union are

Post op bathroom time has been......interesting

If you're pre op it's fine but post op yo won't be able to consume that much A few weeks post op I was adding frozen fruit to my shakes

If people ask me how I lost weight I just say I've been eating less...not a lie

Only my very immediate family and two close friends know I had surgery. I only wanted to tell people that I knew would be supportive. There is enough stress and difficulty without people being negative

I can offer you a virtual hug. I am just starting a divorce myself. My soon to be ex has also moved on. He's not dating anyone but he has made it clear that he stopped loving me a long time ago and told me he wants to date one of our friends. I kind of understand what you're feeling. If you want someone to talk to or just a virtual shoulder to cry on please feel free to message me
