Froggi

I'd like to be able to mow the yard (did it yesterday took me 2 hours and i about died) without getting dizzy, horribly sweaty, passing out, physically sick, not being able to move or stand, not being able to breathe. Omg may I say yesterday was torture and I plan on never doing that again any time soon.

I've never heard of stein mart =/

What do prunes taste like...I am scared to buy some and not like them...HELP :tongue2:

meeeeeeeeep water up the bum >< I had a test for colon cancer with barium up the bum, most horrible feeling EVERRRRR.

My doctor had me quit drinking any kind of pop already and I don't have surgery until November. Carbination can cause your band to slip, flip, and stretch. Drinking pop expecially 4 weeks AFTER surgery, is a very very bad idea. I'd quit immediatly.

I know why you said it I read all the posts. You still said perhaps our kids are smarter and by that you meant with going with a different surgery than lapband. I know what I saw but I am done with the negativity.

My boobs are saggy :incazzato:

I was offered gastric bypass at a younger age and said hell no because it was so invasive. How can you say that your kids are smarter by choosing a more invasive surgery than banding. I have friends who has bypass and in the long run, they gained their weight back, are eating badly again and aren't happy with themselves yet again. With Lapband, you can control it your whole life. If you are hungry and think you need a fill, you call your doctor see what he or she says and get a fill and be on your way. Lapband is like a little surgery every time you need a fill, I think it's the smartest decision I will have ever made in my life, and I cannot wait until I get it done. As for saying your kids are smarter by choosing a surgery that causes dumping syndrome, and rerouting the stomach/intestines and is a lot more dangerous, I'd say that's stupid. But hey that's me. Surgery isn't a miracle either way. No matter what kind you have. You still have to work at it. NO matter it be bypass or banding. If you want to change your life bad enough and be at a healthier weight, you gotta work for it. That's all I can say. Byebye.

I've never heard of any of this stuff lol. Wow I feel dumb.

Lol I might buy one then my mom always said you will break it!! Made me feel bad. But either way I have only done it on top once in my life and it was rather hard, I was on top and had my knees to the side down on the mattress and I kind of just rocked, because I didn't have the strength to use my legs to bounce up and down or anything else. I haven't tried it on top since. Also when I try doggy guys always seem to have problems getting it in and keeping it in, so I have always just done missionary, which can get boring. And in missionary I get tired too cause my fat legs get in the way and I have to keep them lifted up in the air with my arms. Sex isn't fun, it's such a job for me.

I hope as I lose a hump doesn't form. I know my grandma had one. I don't want one lol. I know I have a lot of back fat though.

I want some new bras but I want to wait in fear of me losing more even before surgery will make them too big.

lol I've always been too scared to buy a exercise ball thinking I would burst it. Being 407 lbs I think I probably would. :incazzato:

I'm a full bush right now too, I know horrible lol, I normally keep it clean. I think I like to keep it so clean shaven is because I am young and I am not married or in a relationship, I dunno what's going to come along...LOL I know but yeah...But it's been quite awhile since I have had sex, so I havent even shaved my legs recently LOL. I don't show them so I see no reason to shave them until I feel better showing them off.

I dunno, my therapist told me I have issues with men, I don't know if it's that or I am just younger and thinking about men viewing these things and maybe enjoying some of it etc bothers me. I have a pretty bad past with men, not just relationships either, I guess that has something to do with it. Sorry for being so immature, I guess.

6 incisions is very normal. Some people have less but some have 6. It all depends on the doctor really.

I say it's good you decided to wait. It was dumb of them to call. It wouldn't have been fair to not even have a week of your pre op diet, that could have screwed things up if you decided to do surgery on the 12th. Either way I hope you have a wonderful vacation and after that you will be getting banded YAY

They aren't just reading, some are even posting in here. Sorry, but I don't go posting in the men's forum. I guess I'm just stupid.

Obama/Edwards would be nice, I myself don't want Hillary for VP.:tongue2:

One of my hamsters bit my finger today. Is it because I am going through the process to get banded!!?? I think so cause animals like hamsters never bite, they don't have big sharp teeth. hahaha omg some people are annoying

Are men coming in here and reading and commenting on posts in a girl only forum.:tongue2: I don't just mean the old posts alex moved in here either. I mean threads that are brand new and were made like 1 or 2 days ago and today.:thumbup: I feel a little uneasy knowing guys are coming in here and reading some of the things that are being posted. Is this a concern for anyone else or am I just being stupid?:confused2:

I was told it should last a lifetime, but of course there's always a chance something might happen. I just have to keep that risk in mind. You can't just not do something because of a risk, almost everything in life has a risk, well everything. You take a risk everyday driving your car, taking a bite of food and not choking. Etc. Either way I would say the surgery helping you is much more of a thing to happen then it needing to be taken out.

Barium will do that to you. You should feel better the next day sometime. Wish you luck.

A lot of people that are very high in weight and bmi's get lapband and are successful too. I am getting lapband in november, and I started at a bmi of 61 and a weight of 419 I am on a 6 month diet for insurance and I am down to 407 after just 1 month. Either way no matter what size if you work hard and have willpower you can be successful with lapband

I've actually been doing that for awhile since I started my process. It does seem to help.:tongue2:
