Too Fat To Fish

sk and moombean hope your well

hey now. have not been on in awhile hope u all r good. hi to all the new people since September. i hit the big 100 lbs in September and have not moved. must say i have not been trying too hard. why you ask. because i am an ass. wasted months on camping relaxing golfing playing with my kids. instead of sitting in my chair i had fun. i am stuck. i am discouraged. But i am moving and that's something i couldn't say before lapband. too all those people that said lapband is a tool not a cure, ok you were right. But i am trying..............

Hey lynda tell your daughter to go ahead and get it done in regina. i got it done in wpg before it was avalable in regina... i know of a fill nurse in saskatoon so thats closer than regina from PA

i am now under 300. I love my lapband.

hi there girl27. i am from Regina, SK. hope your doing well after surgery. hope to hear from you soon. if i dont answer right away its because i am out camping:thumbup: Just alittle history i had surgery June 20 last year at maples in wpg man. at that time Regina never had a place to get it done so my wife and i went to Manitoba. my wife is totally wanting someone is Sask to talk too:smile: not alot of people here that have had this done....hope things are going well and take your time its a long journey but totally worth the ride.:thumbup:

updating ticker :devil_smile:

he drinks alot of carb. drinks i was wondering how he was doing that

I watch the shows about john and he lost 115lbs and looks good. my q? is how can he drink that much deit coke....i seen he was ,so of course i followed and wow i burped for hours...anyone else drinking pop...

Three weeks after surgery i had to jump in the Water to save a kid and when i pulled myself back in the boat it was tuff...i had swelling for weeks in my stomach...i know it was more pulling/strain then golf but just be careful..i was swinging the club about a month after the swelling.

To all you ladies have a great day...

Anyone know a phone application to download? i have a samsung instint

Wow carnation shakes r good protien. no breads at all u might as well because u r not going to have then in ten days anyways :ohmy: try real hard at the pre op. shrink that liver makes recovery easyer..

Never got bumped ...the wife and ii drove in from regina had a 1:00pm...hope i didn't take your spot....

hi trying. i had my surgery done in wpg and live in regina. so i know to well the five hour drive. i dont do it..we have a nurse that does fills here in regina. is it better to have the surgery done quickly and then do all the driving i guess thats up to you. you will have to pay like i do and pay for fills if you stay in wpg and dont drive to regina if you get surgery done in regina... i hear surgery in regina is cheaper then wpg so you might want to do the math.

Mmm love cottage cheese

hi to all...i just seen that it was February of last year when i joined lapband. march is when i went it for consult to wpg, and June 20th for surgery...... truth be known i was thinking about this long before i joined this site but got all the info here to make the decision to go to wpg and see the docs...as i have said in the past that if i only lose fifty pounds on lapband i would be happy..... thats how i made my decision to do it.... pay all the money and only lose fifty is it worth it...hope to all the new people reading this that it gives u some encouragement that it can be done.... i drive truck and dont exercise much and to be honest i have just done this with diet...now in saying that eating has always been my Achilles heel so this has been a big struggle for me....protien..protien..protien is all i can say... i had to lose weight just to have this surgery sooo....... i am so happy that i can now say i am not the largest man working at my work place........ i have not been this size since 1996 and when i graduated high school i was 240lbs...life is starting over...life is getting better...i can now see my life....

ya linda's great. hope she does not stop she says she wont so thats good.. wifes doing well. she started losing after her last fill.. i think she is at 60 pounds lost now i will get her to email u. is your hubby going to manitoba or regina? i hear its like 15000 bucks there or something like that, or did he get it already...good luck....
