  1. I know Constipation is an issue after getting banded.....

    here is my problem....

    last week~~ tuesday I started getting gas pains? pains in my belly below my belly button.... bloating ...pain when I have a bowl movement and pain when I pass gass.... pain even to sit down....and pain during intercourse

    now the pain comes and goes.... my bowl movements were hard but I was having one every day

    yesterday and today my bowl movement is Water and solid????

    I called telecare....and well Im probably not going to get in to see my family doctor anytime soon....go to the ER????

    anyone ever have these symptoms?


  2. HOLY HELL..... I got on the scale this morning...... and wow....2 0 freakin 9 ... 209 lbs ..thats 91 lbs gone!

    ~ 91 lbs in almost 6 months :( my dietitian is going to point her finger at me again.... (she thinks Im loosing way to fast) she is probably right.....but what can I do?????

    Im going outta town shopping october 1st ....and I want to get down to 195 lbs ... I will be a size 14-12 :lol: ...

    (Im a 14- 16 now)

    (started at a size 24) :angry:

    ...and I have not been in the 100's since..... Jr high maybe???? woooot!!!! can't wait!!

    .... my husband keeps loosing weight......so I keep needing to loose more weight ...to be below his weight..... :) lol


  3. If your not ready to change your life....then how is a plastic band going to make you ready???

    Im almost 6 months in and NEVER feel full!! ..... I was over 300lbs,,,eating and food was the only thing on my mind!

    now..... I only have a few cc's in my 10cc band.... no restriction.... well maybe a little... I measure my food and try not to eat at night!!

    I went into this journey thinking.. if Im going to have surgery and put my body and mind through what I put them through...(very bad Anxiety before surgery ..and still have it).....Then holy hell Im going to make this work!!!

    Seriously do you really think I don't want chips? ? or I really love getting up off my ass and jumping on that treadmill all the time????

    Im not saying Im a good band girl everyday....... but Im just tired of hearing soooo many pple complaining about the band.... its a tool.....it does work..... you just have to make it work!!!!!

    sorry :)


  4. My ex,I wouldnt pee on her if she was on fire.It is war.

    LMFAO!!!! :lol: ....that made me laugh!!!

    ....I wouldnt...... why would he want to hang with her??? unless he is not serious about you???

    its one thing to be friends....but to talk and hang out??? how do you know he isn't fukin her???? you will never know right??? unless your not open to that....and you dont like it.....well girl....there are plenty of men out there.... go get another one!!!! :lol:


  5. I just made a comment on someones post....and it got me thinking.....

    how many people out there in a relationship think about other men or women (in my case I think of both) :)

    .....what Im trying to say is ....why am I thinking of other men.... all the time.... I love my husband...he is a great person and would never cheat on me.....

    with the weight loss I think of other people wayyyy more often now... its like I can't control myself...I cant think ,,,breath,,, I hope this wont lead to cheating??? anyone else out there think of other people......have you cheated because of it???


  6. hahahahah.... well I have no problem typing Vagina... and I only have one sex hole....

    'sex hole' omg thats funny...

    ..hmmmmmm interesting... I really didn't know a vagina could shrink... ?????

    I know plenty of skinny girls who are 'loose' so loosing weight shouldn't shrink a vagina :thumbup:

    :)


  7. ok....so my confidence has gone over the top... then I look in the mirror and see the loose skin... doesnt bring me down....just reminds me that Im not done loosing yet!

    hmm went skinny dippin with hubby and another couple...woooot! fun! (went skinny dippin a few times...but years ago)

    a little sex talk~~~~ well,, Im happy to say that this Girl is back on top baby!!! on top of the world... and on top of my husband!! :)

    a little more sex talk~~~~ now that I lost this much weight...and my hubby lost 20 lbs (he was never overweight) .. well,, he is too big.. wayyyy to big .. :)

    I know ..I know.... some women out there are like... damn girl don't complain...but,, well ouch! .... LOL

    16 more lbs and I will weigh less than my husband.....can't wait!!!!

    hope everyone is having a great week..... :thumbup:


  8. sorry for not responding ....alot is going on with my daughter and hubby ,,,with summer here and all :tongue2:

    thank you so much for the nice comments...... made me feel all warm and fuzzy :thumbup:

    Amy- well really i don't count my calories....I eat small healthy meals....and two small low calorie Snacks (I do munch here and there) bad habbit!!

    drink my Water and workout whenever I can..... usually every second day or so!

    I dont eat at night.....i started eating small snacks at night and noticed my weight loss slowed down when I did...... so I eat at night once a week or so.... summer time is the worst....its BBQ season for gawd sakes..... I have bbq's ..but I eat small portions! so many changes!!!!!:)


  9. Alot has changed......Alot has happened....

    my BMI in the begining (before lap-band®) was 49.9 ..... now my BMI is 37.6 :blink:

    my weight was 300lbs (pre band) .... and now I weight 226 lbs :lol2:

    I didn't work out.... now i get my weights and cardio in a few times a week :frown:

    I gave away all my bigger clothes........ and,,,I can wear my husbands clothes (jacket) ....and for fun I tried on his jeans ..they fit!!! (even though his jeans are to big for him it still feels good)....

    I had my second fill .5 a small fill.....Im sure it is because the dietician thinks Im not eating because Im loosing to fast :angry:sooooooo I have to start a food journal to show her at my next visit :tt1:

    aww well at least she will know Im eating..... :frown:

    hope everyone is doing well.........OH ,,,,I made it to my 4th of july challenge goal like 6 days ago.. :crying:


  10. I just don't...... how am I gaining????

    I know its not much 2.6 lbs but..(in two days).... I work out.....eat less I should be loosing...or staying at the same weight...... tuesday I had two 100 cal. bars... not that crazy.... and yesterday I ate very well......and had one 100 cal. dark chocolate bar........ and worked out Mon,tues,wed???? (I work out every week)..plus I drink my Water.....now come on!!??!?! ;)

    .....also sitting here wondering why my upper half lip is still swollen? ;) .....woke up tuesday with a half swollen lip and its not going away????? weird eh? :devil_smile:


  11. silly question.....but Im not to sure.....so

    when we drink water.....does the Water stay in our pouch or go right through to our bigger belly??????

    I drink fast and alot and it doesn't bother me......but if it will stretch my pouch I would like to know so I can slow down....... so should I slow down......or keep drinking like I am??? :)


  12. I would like to know a little more about breast surgery....how many different types.. breast lift... reduction... ????

    my breasts are pointing south!.....and sice i have been over weight all my life and have big breasts...... I wonder what surgery would be best for me.... all I want is a lift..no implants....

    which surgery is more painful? ......and how painful is a breast lift? how long does the pain last????

    thanks :unsure:


  13. I went in with Anxiety..... (surgery,march 24th 2010) and post-op with Anxiety and depression...... crying.... and thinking what have I done??/ why??

    ......alot of pple come out feeling blue....sad..... its a big part of most peoples healing process.... take it one day at a time..... and if you think you need help go get it....see your doctor... I started feeling better a few weeks after surgery (after I started to heal)..... needed no medication other than Anxiety meds....

    take care.....

    one day at a time.....and don't even think of whats to come ..... loosing weight and exercise can wait! :)


  14. ..the sergeon is very shy....and quite new..kinda lets the nurse run the show..but I have to say he has done an awesome job with my surgery and with everyone else........ the nurse is a bitch :cursing: and I over herd the sec. on the phone....she mentioned someone called her out and called her a bitch...... But Amy your right....it is not their area of expertise.....and i told her....if anyone would have asked me anything about my past mental illnesses ...i would have told them everything..... my psychologist said that the reason it is not manditory for a eval.... is because they would have to hire someone just to handle all the people needing a psych eval (here in Canada,in my provence , we are 100% covered for surgery).......

    crabby.......I thought of going to a new doctor.... 4 hours away is a bit long..... Im sure things will get better....if not well, Im going to have to say something! :)
