  1. my advice on constipation.... don't do it!!!! start being vigilent NOW about what you eat and maybe even mix a little metamucile (sp?) into a meal once a day because I got hemorrhoids during my first pregnancy due to constipation around month 7 and it was the WORST experience of my life! seriously! This time around I'm going to make sure to eat good amounts of fiber daily and even take a supplement every other day to make sure things keep moving. I'm about 4weeks along, and I'm already having crazy cravings. I'm doing my best not to give into them though, just like I'd fight off a normal craving, i busy myself and typically a few min later I've forgotten about it. It's gonna be a long 9mo though if I"m already jonz'n for junk;)
  2. Heather I was banded 1/15/08 and I'm down 60lbs. I've REALLY slowed down the past few months my excuse was it was summer and we were traveling, camping so forth but I should have made better choices :thumbup: it's all a learning process and I'm back on track now! just in time to findout I'm preggers. I'm down 5lbs just from a week ago this because I started doing all the right things. I'm determined not to gain a bunch wiht this pregnancy. With my first I gained nearly 50lbs! ugg anyhow I'm sure most of this is in my head but I've been hungry all day. Nibbling on good things but nibbling none the less. I really don't want to let myself believe the "I'm eating for two" thing again this time around!
  3. here to join you! just got a positive test yesterday! I have so many questios regarding mypregnancy and my band. Reading all of these posts really helps!
  4. I'm brand new here- I went in for a fill today and kind of got skooled! I've been bad lately and eating things tha I SO shouldn't be!! My nurse is actually going to do a fluro on my next tuesday to make sure I haven't streatched out my band because she is suprised at some of the things I told her I had eaten. For example I ate a DOHNUT this am!! ugg anyhow I joined this site so I can get back on track- I guess I was in a rut and eating the same things and then I just fell off the wagon. So I'm looking on here to get some fresh ideas of things to eat! Thanks for sharing this will help me!!
