  1. Yeah I was banded for 3 years got over 60 adjustments and I was miserable everyday I feel so much better now
  2. Yeah I've shopped there sometimes and have ordered from the Burbank store.. Youtube victory rolls you'll find loads of tutorials
  3. Old profile pic was from about a year ago after I had my Lapband deflated and had quickly put on 40 lbs.. I don't have a pin up store close by I usually buy online believe it or not I got this dress at Ross for less than 20 bux I was stoked lol
  4. I just posted pics check out my tread
  5. Smashed fried or boiled plantains? Try something easier? Eggs, cottage cheese, beans.. foods that have protein which your body needs. Drink your water so you're properly hydrated and eating will be easier..
  6. It's going to be a couple more days you're very swollen take it slow no sense in hurting every time you drink try ice chips or warm tea the temp of the stuff you drink makes a difference sometimes..
  7. Wow congrats!!!! You'll be skinny in no time
  8. Let us know how it goes.. you might not feel like its the best thing you've done tomorrow morning but its totally worth it..
  9. Thanks guys I went out this weekend, this was the outfit I felt HOT... lots of lookers thought I'd share if I can do it anyone can..
  10. So I'm a band to sleeve revision so 2 times a looser lol.. Here are some pics of me at my heaviest and now at a size 12 I was 315 at my heaviest I'm down to 213 still have 40 ish lbs to lose but I'm excited thus far
  11. I need to change my pic lol yeah hair is important to me also it's falling out like crazy I'm keeping my fingers crossed and I know it will grow back I love pin up classic beauties my hair has grown out now but I will be cutting my bangs short again
  12. I think age might be a factor. you look young I'm sure it will grow back my hair is shedding big time. I try not to get too worried. I see new growth coming in so it's growing ok
  13. I like to sit and eat dinner with my family I don't cook separate food for myself I eat the same stuff just a whole lot less of it.. Don't alienate yourself at the table
  14. Your hair will stop falling out on its own don't stress it will grow back mine did the first time around
  15. Sounds like you're suffering from a bad case of tight fitting underwear.. Just kidding sounds like your working out hard being a little sore I imagine is normal
  16. So do all fat people have fat pets? I have kids not pets and I didn't make them fat lol
  17. Hydration is important being constipated might also be the culprit.. You might want to call your doc just to be safe
  18. My port hurt all the time so much in fact that I had it replaced 6 months into my Lapband journey then 3 years later I was revised to a sleeve I'm feeling a whole lot better now a days
  19. Drink lots of water don't jeopardize your safety during surgery because you wanted not feel hunger.. First 2 days are bad after that you'll be ok
