Welcome Janet You have come to the right place if support and encouragement is what you need. I look forward to hearing your progress. :eek:

Welcome Riley O'Riley I also felt something similar a couple of weeks after my surgery...but dr assured me it was just healing...and I haven't felt it since.. best wishes :eek:

Welcome Mrsbee Great to have you here...best of luck! :eek:

Hi miss phobia... gosh I really feel for you...but don't think of Lap band as a magical cure there are still things to be done, rules to follow...why not start now...without the surgery at this stage...try and make proper food choices, get out and exercise, drink lots of water so that when/if you can get lapband surgery done ....you are well on the way...besides it will at least start making you feel a bit better...that you are doing something on your own about it. Best Wishes keep us posted. :eek:

Welcome Pinky Great to have you hear at LBD...it is a really supportive community I have been a member now since may and it has helped me through alot to know that i am not alone...I look forward to hearing of your progress. :eek:

I go out all the time...I order pasta dishes mostly....and sometimes cake...for me this isn't a diet it is about eating things in moderation...obviously I avoid high calorie things like chocolate...and snacking but when I sit down for a meal, at a restaurant, I eat the thing I want...that makes my mouth water. I don't end up eating all of it...I usually share with my mom and my 3 year old son...but I still love the flavours of food...and I still want to experience these...so though i don't eat alot...I love to eat. :eek:

Welcome Becka goodluck on your research...sad about dr Sanchez but I am sure you will find someone equally as apt. let us know of your progress! :eek:

What a lovely idea for a thread! I am a single mother of a 3yr boy, Abe and a 1yr girl, phoebe. gosh funny things happen all the time...but Abe is constantly cracking me up...I had to tell him the other day that he couldn't do or touch something cause he was a 'too little'. to which he replied "but, I am a big boy!"... so i explained at length that yes he was bigger than his sister but not bigger than his cousin jack (who was 7yrs)....he thought about this very carefully for a few min then came up with: "I'm a little Big Boy arent I mom?" needless to say i gave him a big hug and agreed. :eek:
