  1. Hi all... Had my second fill yesterday and I am now at 4cc. I'm starving. I almost miss the foamy stuff when I would try to eat something my band couldn't handle because it seems like nothing is off limits anymore. The Albertsons here had my favorite cookie which was discontinued last year due to Archway going bankrupt... they only had the holiday cookies "wedding cake cookies are my favorite" for 2-3 weeks out of the year..Albertsons must have had a stash from last year and put them on the shelves.. their experation date was 12/12/09... I bought 6 packages of them. I had no problem knocking back 4 packages in 4 days. Am I insane? Did I learn any lessons? Yes, I put on 5lbs knocking me back to only 23lbs lost. I need to be stronger than this.. I am still on pudding consistency stuff for a few more days now that I had another fill and I am hoping there is restriction once I go back to solids.
  2. wow you have been through the mill haven't you! kudos to you for not giving up on everything
  3. Hi there!! No, I was banded on the 8th
  4. Morning all... had my 1st fill today so back to liquids for 4-5 days..knowing me it will be 4 .. wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I don't feel any different actually which I am not sure is a good thing or not. Hope everyone is doing well Karena
  5. I am going through the same thing and I am miserable!! I'm so ashamed I have avoided posting on the sept bandsters .. My surger was sept 8th and my fill is tomorrow morning. Oh I pray that it helps ..
  6. congrats you look fantastic!
  7. Morning all ! Good luck to those having surgery today.. All is well here, no issues to speak of. Month end at work is crazy so I don't get many chances to drop a line. My prayers go out to all of you...those having troubles I pray that you heal quickly
  8. Happy Birthday to your son :tongue2: funny enough my middle son turns 11 tomorrow and my youngest turns 2 on the 28th . We are doing their birthdays at chuckys in grapevine next weekend. I should be ok watching everyone eat pizza because their pizza sucks
  9. I'm sorry your family is not giving you any support. I pray that they soon realize how important this is to you give you the support you need.
  10. I have had the foam thing too. It's horrible! You try to clear your throat, or burp and you spend 5 minutes spewing bubbly stuff. gross huh
