Oh good! I was afraid you thwap me in the head! I think the most common suggestion that I've is to use the Gas-X strips that melt on your tongue...that and get in enough fluids.

Um, don't eat yellow snow? Sorry I couldn't help myself. :crying:

HA!!! That's the good thing I'd never thought about - I never have to see those folks again!!!

Lori - love that siggy!

"...the girl behind the counter is really not equipped with, well, brains." HA!

My experience was basically the same. My fizzies were orange and I guess I'd heard such horrible stories that the thick vanilla liquid was no biggie. (Kind of half-way between milk and yogurt.) But there was no chalky taste, thankfully. My rolling around experience was so embarrassing! Roll, hold your breath, roll, hold your breath. OK I'm a big girl and rolling around like a pig on a spit was not cute!!! The picture taker person said, "Yeah, we call this table aerobics." I said, "Hello, if I'd done aerobics, I wouldn't need a lap band!" And you want the doctor to have a pretty pic of your stomach! Smiiiiiile, tummy!

Hee hee, Plain, BBK called you shthead!!!:crying:

I have been in this pattern for months now. It sucks! I gained weight between my first and second surgeon appointments! Ack! I ate half of a bag of Peanut Butter M&M's today. They are sooooooo good and fresh b/c they're for Halloweenie. Moo. Unfortunately I just answered to say "I feel ya" and not to give you suggestions on what to do. Sorry!

I'm the 16th as well. Wahoo! We'll be fiiiiiine! :crying: Are you staying overnight?

Yea I'm just nosy enough to ask - is this someone from LBT?

Plain - do you sit at home on the weekends just giddy to come back on here to post something cornball?!? :crying: 10 days, 10 days!

I am anxious, excited, nervous all rolled into one! I am to go on liquids 2 days before. Are y'all home now?

I'm actually trying to post a pic!

Wow - she sounds quite intelligent and driven. :crying:

OK why can't I paste a pic in here???

OK I am such a nerd; I love the yawning smiley!

OMG with the "last dinner" food. I've been gorging on PB M&M's. Arggg

Aww, thanks so much!! I'm nervous, anxious, and impatient all rolled into one!!!

2.3% OMG rude. I think I would be busy from now on when that person called in!!!:crying:

Aww, puppies and babies talk. Yippee! Lulu - you promised me pics so pls don't forget! OMG only 10 more days til I get banded! :crying:

Like liquid Tylenol, comfy clothes, pill crusher, Gas-X strips... Good luck to all the bandsters this week. You will all do great!

What have you purchased for post surgery??

Hmm, maybe that's why I'm not married...b/c I don't know men!!! Footie pajamas here are what infant-toddlers wear to bed!

nrpnrp - did you give me your email address on the other thread?? I don't see where you gave it to me on either thread or via pm. I would've thought to view it, you would just have to click the URL below to launch. Providing me your email allows me to "invite you" to make changes to it. Just FYI http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=pg2qwRBUcrSYzLC4XzvDKbQ&hl=en What happens when you click the link? This is the first time I've shared a document via Google so I'm learning here.

Oh I didn't know you had to have a google account to see the spreadsheet. I figured you just had to have had me "invite you" with the email account you provided me!
