  1. Its great having all these new friends going in for surgery on the 24th also..... and having all the newly-banded pple to let us know eveything is going to be fine..... :wub:

    ...group hugzzz :wub:

    day 7 on la boost!!! ....half way done..:tongue2:

    7 more days and its our turn!!!! :laugh:

    :tt1::tt2::thumbup::smile2::tt1::smile:


  2. OK....day 6....its early but its day 6 :blink:

    ..... so I have 3 scales (one from my grandma) and two that I had.... they all say something different... soooo 2 scales are telling me (reg scale and a digital) that I lost 19lbs... but the other one is telling me 15.. sooo Im thinking 15 lbs sounds about right.....but holy shit I lost 15lbs in 6 days :w00t:

    so... Im getting rid of all three...and going out to buy a weight watchers scale! :thumbup:

    8 more days...... :thumbup: :smile2:


  3. Darkangel, never forget that you are beautiful and couragous for taking honest pics of yourself. You are doing something for yourself and your health. Good for you and we can do this together.:wub::wub:

    awww thanks..... :sad:

    sooo everyone one the pre-op diet???

    I started my boost today.....so far soo good.....my stomach just went grrrrrrrrrrrrr!....its mad very very mad!...lol....:)


  4. hey Megg....and everyone else waiting for the 24th.... :)

    I saw my doctor today and Im going to be seeing a therapist.. one that I talked to before..... Im having my last junk food day today.....movie night with la hubby:wub:

    soooooo pre-op starts on wednesday....I have tests on monday and meetings on tuesday.... then its really starting yeh!..... its all going to be done very soon....then were on our way baby!:smile2:


  5. I was just wondering what you can't eat after you got banded.... Im thinking this will really help some people from eating something that gets stuck with most people.... SO Im asking you to write back and let me know what always gets stuck and what you don't eat because of it.... for example, if bread comes up alot I wont eat bread.... and so on...

    ....and wondering what you ate for mushies.... we need all the suggestions we can get!:w00t:

    has anyone tried weight watchers WW bread??? does that get stuck? ....what about pita bread???

    have a great day peeps :smile2:


  6. Maybe a little Anxiety??? .... thats what Im getting.... I had one panic attack... but mostly flutters.... it is getting better... and if you don't have Anxiety everyday...or are not on pills...then Im pretty sure they will go away! :scared2:

    I think it has alot to do with getting the 'date' ...the reality of it all!

    good luck with everything :)


  7. so I read the Lap-Band® Complications forums before... but didn't really start to freak out until now... I think it is because my surgery is coming up soon....

    OK erosion, slippage, port leakage and infection... and anything else that can go wrong is freaking me out....

    When I get a cold I cough allot.. I have bronchitis and athsma and can't sleep for days when I get sick....will the coughing make my band slip???? what about gastro? we all just had it and I was throwing up for hours.... I have a three year old I will get gastro again....will this make my band slip????? anyone else thinking about this stuff???? ..... this is making me think of another WLS option...... I don't have much time.... I think I have more to think about?????

    or am I just freaking myself out???? :)


  8. oh... Megg....we both have to be on liquids for 2 weeks...... oh my my its going to be crazy.... I can have 4 bottles a day..(diabetic boost)..and water...thats it.....what about you????

    Im sure were going to need allot of support through that kind of hunger...lol..... if you ever need to talk to someone who knows what your going through..... Im here...

    here is my email address... boucher0204@yahoo.ca

    email me anytime...about anything :hurray:

    and Jacquie.... you can email me anytime ... yeah for the 24th.... its about time damn it!:angry:


  9. ...so I found out in October 2009 (already waiting about a year) that my surgery might have been in December... well that's not happening....

    Then most likely it was going to be in January 2010.... so I called today and found out January is booked and she doesn't know about February yet...????

    OK I'm really getting pissed about the wait and about not knowing....

    I hate not knowing.... plus I went on a WW board and was really annoyed about how most people on the message boards have no idea what they are talking about when it comes to WL surgery..... they can say allot of negative comments with the wrong information??? I know when I make a comment about something I make sure I have my facts straight...... and I said 'most' because 90% of the comments were negitive and misinformed.... saying things like the 'easy way out' and after the surgery we will 'never' be able to eat regular foods again??? ... and alot more uneducated coments... it just made me mad... come on people get your facts straight!...... you know before writting them down and making yourself sound like an idiot.:willy_nilly:

    sorry about the vent.....
