  1. My email is lenamarie1@netzero.net please let me know if you got your Bolingbrook group together and Fridays would be fine for me too. let me know. I jsut got banded 4 wks ago and will get a fill in a few weeks. Looking forward to meeting other band-its!
  2. Yes! I would love to be a part of your group. They call me Lean and I just had the band put in 4 weeks ago and haven't had the fill yet but I really could use support and give it if I can be of help to anyone. I live 20 minutes from Bolingbrook. Please let me know when and where and I'll be there. Thanks Lean
  3. Hi everyone everyone calls me Leen. It is short for my real name but I changed it to Lean because I refer to myself as I see myself in the future. anyway, I just had the lap band put in 4 days ago in Mexico by Dr. Lopez Coravala. The proceedure was ok and I woke up with that horrible tightness in my chest but thank God I felt 50% better by the first morning after and have been feeling better and better everyday. I had been drinking broths and apple juice and having jello but I got very hungry. But today I felt like I couldn't take the hunger and I ended up mushing scrabbled eggs (about 1/2 c) and a one inch cracker till it was mush, and then jello. I couldn't feel the hunger leave and still feel a sense of hunger! Now I feel that pain in my chest again. Is there anything I can do to help push through whatever is stuck? Like hot tea or broth or something?
