  1. Olive oil worked the best for me, needed to rub alot.
  2. Has anyone felt this? I am going through a bad head cold/ sinus infection. I have lost my sense of smell, and it seems with it most of taste. But I also seem to have lost my sense of restriction. I hope it comes back when I get better. (I am about 6 months out, and have been at my "sweet spot" for a month or so now) Sound familiar to anyone?
  3. Not doing so well, gained 3 lbs in the last week and a half since I had some fill taken out. I have an apt on 6/1 to get a little put back in.
  4. Better late than never? surgery date: 12/23/08 heighest weight: 285 preop diet starting weight: 280 (no preop diet) surgery weight: 269 lbs current weight: 195 lbs weight loss since surgery: 74lbs total weight loss: 85 lbs my end goal is to be: 140 lbs Goal for the rest of the month 5 lbs Workin with a band that is a bit to tight right now (not so bad it is a crisis). But due to how far away from the Dr I am and not being able to miss work (school teacher), can't get an unfill till 5/29.
  5. My question is for when we are on full solids. I am there but I have not had a fill yet, so I don't know the feeling of being full with small amounts right now. So I can't tell if Cereal with milk is ok. Does the milk make it slip right through the band, and act like we are drinking while eating? I am not talking about 1 cup of milk, I am talking 1/4 cup milk with 1/2 cup cereal. Tell me what you think. Thanks!
