I have found it so interesting for lack of a better word that one person can something and it doesn't bother them but another person can't eat it; I know that we are all different which explains it...I can eat steamed broccoli and carrots fine, but no Pasta. I think we tend to not chew pasta as much, so regardless it's a No food for me. I can eat whole wheat "hard or crusty" breads okay, but I have been trying not to eat bread much at all. Good luck,

I think it's odd that all of us have the Realize Band and this happend to us, I too am a side sleeper, never thought about it, but, I was sleeping on my side in the hosptial right after surgery. After my port revision, which was on a Thursday or Friday I can't remember LOL , I went back to work on Monday. My Dr. told me the 2 clips had come loose and were not anchored in, this time he sutured them in.

Just curious, do you have the Realize band?

This happend to me; I was banded on Aug 5th, on Sept 27th, went for my first fill, it was under fluro as well; he tried at least 4 times, kept bending the needles. I had to have mine repaired, he did it as OP. It was another surgery, but it wasn't too bad. I go for another fill on the 17th. Good luck to you. :smile2:

I am in too :eek:

I hope your news comes back good. I had that happen to me, I had to have surgery to fix it, the surgery wasn't bad, I just hated to have more surgery. I have my 2nd fill on Nov 17th, I hope it gives me a little more restriction. Good luck to you.

Hi guys, Just wondering if anyone has had any problems with their fingernails peeling? I am eating healthy, I get in 60grms of protein/day, but have had some problems with my nails, breaking and just peeling. Any thoughts? Thanks :blushing:

Hey there, I use the BodyBugg, and love it! I bought mine from QVC, it came with a watch, so that you can see through-out the day the number of calories you have burned, I love that I can see how many steps I have taken. I try for 10,000 each day; it has truly been worth the money. :blushing:

Christi, I was banded on Aug 5th, my port flipped as well, I had surgery to fix it on the 26th of Sept. ( I think that was the date LOL) surgery was not bad, came home later that day, and I have done fine since. My doctor said that this time he sutured the port in place, before he said the "little anchors" that "hook into the muscle" had come loose. Good luck to you. I agree this was a little bump in the road. :puke:

Well I am glad to hear her headache is better; now she just needs to get rid of the pneumona and she will be able to start her journey to her new life.:thumbdown: Good luck to your son to, and tell him Thanks for serving our country.

Found it thanks

Congratulations! I know (sort of ) how you feel. Saturday, I actually went into the Regular section of the department store! I am glad it wasn't too busy, I wouldn't have wanted people to see me standing there looking like I was from another country or something, starring at the clothes LOL. I felt like I was in another country. I bought an XL blouse for the first time since I don't know when...and it felt great! Keep up the good work, I know you will meet your goal!

I know I have seen this before, but couldn't find the post. Can someone tell me once I create the tracker, how do I get it into my signature? It says to copy and paste, but am I supposed to copy and paste the tracker picture or the web page info? Thanks guys

Well I am an RN and the first thing that comes to my mind is the question is she drinking enough fluids. She should be drinking at least 64 oz per day, more if she can. I would also suggest (as an RN I am not giving med. advice only suggestions) that she try something like tylenol for pain, but I would make sure she is drinking enough, as others have said being dehyrdated can cause terrible headaches. Hope she feels better soon, keep in touch with her doctor.
