  1. Happy 38th Birthday billiedaycare!

  2. Happy 37th Birthday billiedaycare!

  3. 3 years has passed since you registered at LapBandTalk! Happy 3rd Anniversary billiedaycare!

  4. Hey there. Glad to hear from you. The last time I was on this site was AUGUST last year. I have really forgotten all about the rules etc and just live with the band.My food addictions are driving me insane also.. it is VERY hard. I had lost 53 pounds but gained back TWENTY! in the past few months. I just went crazy eating chocolate.. and you have no idea.. I mean 2 pounds at a time... and justifying it to myself.. so crazy!.. anyway.. Last week I decided that I must quit sugar once and for all. I am 18 months banded and haven't lost much more than my first few months.. disgraceful really. I was down to 198 from 251 and have crept back up to 220! So disappointed in myself, milky sugary coffee for breakfast, one for a snack, (easy to drink eh!?).. and then soup for dinner with chocolates for my 'movie/me' time.. I was even eating them in the bath!. I LOVED every moment but realised it is time to STOP.. I have this band and no matter how many times I fail I must get up again.

  5. I had my surgery in June 2008. I had excellent care in Park Rapids. My surgeon was excellent. I have had no complications at all! The haven't done that well in the weight loss but it's my own addictions and lack of exercise on my part! Glad I choose Dr. Smith!
  6. how are you doing? Sorry, I don't come on very often but I was thinking about you the other day and wonder how well your doing! I'm still stuck! Dealing w/ food addictions!

  7. I probley am not a good person to ask for advice I am so badly struggling w/ my addictions. I eat things I am not suppose too. Struggle w/ bite sizes, and chewing. It is getting better slowly. My job doesn't help either. Dealing w/ kids makes your whole day rushed not leaving much time for yourself to even go to the bathroom so eating is a challenge. Sorry it took so long to reply I haven't visited the site since Feb. I need to find more time to come her and get positive reinformcment. I have only lost 30 lbs since June of 2008.

    Weight loss slow

    I am losing really slow like you I was banded in June. I've only lost 19.5 lbs. I do really well for a couple of weeks on exercise but then I slack off. I know I am not doing well because I do home daycare and I am a snacker. I am hoping I can stick w/ the exercise so it will move faster. I do weigh daily bc if I can I can catch it before it goes beyond 2 lbs.
  10. Thank you for sharing. I have been wondering about this. I am still tender in teh port spot. Bugs if I have been laying on it or if bumped. Also, it seems to be more tender if I eat to much.

    Is anyone NOT exercising???

    I was banded June 3rd and feel the same way tired all the time. I feel I eat plenty but have no energy.

  13. Are u exercising? I am off and on approx. 3 days a week for at least a 1/2 hour. I know I need to pick up the pace.

  14. Last Tuesday, I had the flu. Have you been sick yet? I had a hard time throwing up! Oh it was miserable. I couldn't puke but felt like I had to and when I did it took forever of lots of heaving and very little coming up.
