Exercise and Band Restriction
TheCutestFatty posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have noticed that if do not exercise on a regular basis, five to six times a week, I can not eat. The food will not pass through my esophagus. When I have been working out on a regular basis I can eat anything and pretty much any amount. Does this happen to anyone else? I can not tell if I have actual restriction because it changes so much with my work out schedule. Should I feel restriction in my throat? When I first got the band, before the swelling went down, I felt it in my chest. -
Spartan this is the only post of yours I've read and I can tell your a major douche!! Maybe you should re-read the OP's comment and then read yours. It in no way addressed what she was asking for. Whether something is true or not has absolutely nothing to do with whether it is berating. You were berating her.

What do you do when you want to binge?
TheCutestFatty posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I got my band on Dec 1st and didn't get filled until yesterday Feb 12th because I was scared I wouldn't be able to eat when I felt that burning urge to binge. Unfortunately all I want to do now is binge. I know bingeing is something that I will have to stop doing but I just can't think of anything else. Working out has not helped and all I am doing is crying. How do you deal with unwanted emotions and how do you stop yourself from bingeing? -
Wearing black pantyhouse with a dress is actually in style now. Some girls also wear the sheer beyonce/lady gaga pantyhouse. I do wear the black ones. At target they have some with patterns so they don't like so old fashioned.

Aww, thanks! I hit 99 pounds lost today! I had my procedure done with Dr. Van Wagner at St. Alexius.

Hey you've done such a great job. I hope to have had such success when I am 10 months out. Where did you have your procedure done?

PB, Slime but no restriction...I'm confused.

I'm so glad I saw this. This has been happening to me and I couldn't figure out why. I guess I need to eat slower. Do you know why the food gets trapped in your esophagus? It starts sometimes before I could possibly have any food in my stomach. I don't have a fill yet and haven't been pb'ing so I just assumed It wasn't from restriction. -
For the Self-Payers: Where'd you get the money?!

I also have a carecredit card but I couldn't use it because my procedure was done outside of the country. Care credit is pretty good because if you Dr. allows you can finance for a period at 0%. I used a cosmeti-credit card. The information was provided to me through my Dr. I decided to have my procedure in Mexico because of the cost. Lots of people are not comfortable with that but it is an option and there are some reputable surgeons. If financing such a large sum is an issue you might want to look at Dr. Kirshenbaum (sp) in Colarado I believe he does the procedure for $9,950. -
I haven't had too much burping, but when I do it is incredibly loud and long (unless I shut my mouth, but I can feel it and it's weird!) I didn't really burp much before surgery, but now I do.
When you do go to meat, start soft and mushy. Do you like sushi? I had some salmon sashimi the other night and it was fantastic...and my $8 plate lasted me for three meals, so not too bad in the grand scheme of things, lol.
Crab cakes sound amazing...thanks for reminding me! I think they'd classify as a mushy, especially if I chewed a lot. I had three tablespoons of hummus this morning for breakfast and it was delicious. My roommate is middle eastern and her grandma made it for us to eat...full of protein and one of my favorite foods.
Good job on your 11 pounds! I'm at 27 now. Yesterday I was at 27.5, so I hate it when I gain weight... especially since I ate barely anything yesterday because I was sick (three slices of sashimi with a bit of soy sauce and half of a small smoothie).

5 weeks since surgery -- feeling depressed :(
TheCutestFatty replied to jessicakolman's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I recently started on solids and have noticed I gained a couple pounds. I attributed this to the fact that the actual weight of the solid foods I eat is more than the liquids. That may be part of the cause? -
