it does this sometimes...all of a sudden ill be really tight. they havent given me a fill since december. but ill go in tues. i can drink fluids and i can eat small amts. but i can tell im too tight, my weight is up a few lbs

i do work vicki...its just crazy...

who knows whats going on. i can be fine one day then the next way too tight. so i called for an appt urgently yesterday they had me scheduled for today. then i had to cancel my dad needed urgent surgery and that stupid office tells me they will call me with an appt and of course they didnt so i finally called and im seeing hoffman tuesday

i have to call them myself, because i know im too tight. but its been a whirlwind here

i know it must be sooooo frustrating for u vicki

i crochet too...but enjoy knitting more. i go back the middle of april, but no way do i need a fill. right now your body is healing, i wouldnt focus on the gain. just follow the rules for now. vicki it really isnt good to weigh yourself everyday it is just a mental game. i never weigh myself more than once a week. many years ago i actually became addicted to the skill. i would weigh myself 5-6 times a day. basically if i gained weight during the day i wouldnt eat. intellectually i knew that ur weight will fluctuate during the day but it became an obsession. i actually could not keep a scale in the house. now i can have a scale but i never weigh myself more than once a week

i also enjoy craft shows vicki....but i also knit

it took me 9 months. and yes the office is chaotic...lol

im sure we all got a little nervous maggie...i know i waited a lot longer than you for my surgery date but still u are nervous

that is funny rain...how could he not know

i thought it was great, i signed up also

tylenol has a program just keep moving and if you register on it they will send you a pedometer and exercise dvd for absolutely free. the link is justkeepmoving.com

lol...you guys are so funny

vicki, im glad u are okay. i didnt think u would be back online so soon but i am glad u were. they prob gave you a ton of fluids during surgery which is most likely why you have the weight gain...be patient...lol...dont be in a rush

good lucky vicki:thumbup:

i agree with jenn...at least you have an answer now. i have been tight but never had problems with water

i hope it does vicki...i know it must be so frustrating for you

vicki, i think sometimes it just happens. when i would be too tight i was always afraid my band slipped. thas why im never in a big rush to get filled. i feel very bad for you. but you have had so many problems. i may call next week, but i was better today. i have good days and bad days, but i have always been able to get fluids down. hang in there

im doing okay...just cant eat too much...im going to ride it out and see what happens...it is that time of the month and im alays tighterr then

vicki, i may not be far behind you. i feel tighter but im not as bad as you. im going to ride it out for a few days and see if it turns around...lol

hi there rain...dont get so down about the weight...the baby needs it

vicki, maybe everyone was sucked up into a big, black hole...lol

yeah...i dont know where everyone has gone

vicki, the same thing happens to me. today im very tight but then tomorrow it might not be as bad...just take it day by day. the days im tighter i just eat more liquids and soft foods

it was great to meet you vicki. i had lost 4 lbs since the middle of december and dr hoffman as pleased. no fill...i didnt need one. actually hoff told me if i came in to see him to get surgery now, i wouldnt qualify my bmi is 35...woohoo
