We may only invade this thread LMAO The men will defect if we invade the rest ! They should be able to bitch about us somewhere. Or if ya'll dont like us here tell us we will leave :scared2: I know more about sports and Nascar than most woman i know and some men LMAO But We'll leave if ya want us to ! Mindy

How much does your Wellbutrin affect you if your off it ? Because I went off mine until i could swallow it again , I couldnt handle it crushed. That might be something you want to consider if your doc will let you ? How long before your surgery ? I went off my wellbutrin cold and it did not affect me THAT time , but recently I went off it and it made me CRAZY LMAO Very cranky . But if you can swallow the other pills post op will he let you try the generic wellbutrin in 1/4? HTH Good luck Mindy

Im going to ignore the "Right Team " comment about JR. LMAO Ive been a JR fan for many many yrs. But Hendrix UGHH. Cant stand Johnson or Gordon . I use to not like Stewart but slowly he rebel mouth grew on me and I like him a lot now ! I do like Mears too , Ive always liked him . He's quite keeps a low profile . HATE the Bush Brothers , Kenseth and Biffle all whinny ass bitches !!! Other than that I pretty much like everyone else !! Mindy

There are some Jeans at Walmart , i SWEAR they are THE MOST Comfy jeans I have owned in my LIFE , and better yet only $19 !!! Levi Strauss Signature - Women's Mid-Rise Boot-Cut Jeans, Juniper - Wal-Mart they are the signature series they have several Rises and Lengths. They are "Stretch" But they fit around your hips and Butt and are fiited but not too fited around your legs. I cant explain it they fit PERFECT. The low rise or Med. Rise ones Cut my "fat" apron around my stomach in half so its not as apparent. Ya'll should give them a try , they are usually not hanging up they are on the stands ! mindy

Im not a fan of hot liquids like Coffee and warm teas either. But if im really tight i will sip warm water with lemon and honey in it . Its pretty good Mindy

ROFLMAO Im sorry im not a man and I know im in the mens room but i the NASCAR caught my attention and I had to read it this made me LMAO . it IS A restrictor plate, Limits " intake" , Yet Revs up the Engine ROFLMAO Im a HUGE Nascar Fan ( Im a woman though ) I live in Austin and I try to go to the Races as much as I can , in fact my "Before" pic was at The Texas Race last yr ! Sorry i'll remove myself from the mens room before i get kicked out. (Hiding my eyes walking out backwards ) Mindy

Could be also this is not true for everyone but barometric pressure affects my band (also causes migraines for me ) stress causes my band to get tight my TOM affects the band . It changes from day to day unless im at the point where i have just lost so much weight I just have none left and im so loose and gotta have a fill. Then there is no stopping me ! LMAO Good luck mindy

Ewww I would ask your doc ! My doc said no exercise for 6 weeks ! So i would check with them first. I could walk only for the first 6 weeks. So i would check with the doc first. Mindy

SOmeone else might have better advice but at this point i think its a little too early for a lawyer, You might want to consider a second opinion ? If your not comfortable with your doc , and it does not sound like you are are you going to be able to trust anything they say ? If you are then go to him and see what's going on ? Im not up to speed on what happens cost wise if something goes wrong , meaning if the doc pays for everythign ect ? So at the very least get a second opinion ? Mindy

Once you have proof you paid the doc it can then be disputed /and deleted on your credit. Even if you still owed the doc $500 you no longer owe the collection agency $2000. Its complicated but pull your credit report at myFICO - FICO Credit Scores | Get a Free Credit Report Online and make sure the doc or the collection agency has not put anything negative on your credit report. Mindy

Since everyone in this office has "memory" issues i would not communicate with them unless its via email or letter. you need proof of what they say . does this doc advertise the free fills for a yr ? Most of them do ?

Have the collection agency "validate the debit' they have to send you the original amount owed by the original debtor . Basically they have to prove they tried to collect the debt first before sending it to a collection agency . PM I can help you with the collection agency part of it Mindy

I think telling people to "cheat" and saying their doc will understand is a pretty "broad" statement and can frankly give some people the liscense to go nuts ! . Not ALL docs will understand, I know some who would NOT . Some docs dont allow any wiggle room . Just my opinion Mindy

HUH ?? how is that not normal ? Or average ? there are A LOT OF people who loose weight before restriction . I lost 12 pds the first week post op ! Best I figured really quick your loosing 3 pds a week right now . A little "Above Average " maybe but that will taper off a bit when you get a fill. But not losing ANY Weight is a stretch !! Mindy

I agree when i am good I can "feel" my bolthouse shakes go down in the am . But around 2 pm im good can eat fine just no more than about a cup . Now the fill before last I was getting stuck on my tiny topamax pill as i was taking it , in the am i knew that was too tight. getting really good restriction does take some getting use to its a total mind *F* in my opinion LMAO LOL Mindy

are you able to eat a lot ? at first when i was still loosing I was getting fills if I could eat a lot. now i tend to wait until my weight loss slows down some and i can eat a lot ? Mindy

My fills typically take 4-7 days to "kick in " also takes that long to know if im too tight or not . Now when I have good restriction , I cant eat solids for breakfast, Its shakes , If you having issues getting liquids down your too tight and might need a slight unfill . If the way your eating is not comfortable for you , I would say you need an unfill. I get unfills if they way im eating , even if small is not comfortable for me or if I cant tolerate it . when in doubt call the doc Mindy

I still struggle with " do i need a fill or do i wait " its such a back and forth game . good luck . I hope it goes well Mindy

Its best to call the doc either way , Just becasuse someone else has had a rash does not mean its "Normal" Mindy

The generic wellbutrin is about the size of an M&M ( that's what i take ) and FYI when i have good restriction , like now I HAVE to cut it in half or I have issues . My topamax is fine . I would bring them with you just in case. I have also found the pharmacist tends to know as well which meds can be crushed and which ones cant. Good Luck Mindy

FYI Applesauce doesnt work LMAO Mindy

FYI and i dont want to scare ya Wellbutrin ( I take the generic 2 times a day ) Is NASTY Crushed, I ended up cutting them in 1/4's my doc was ok with that. Topamax is SO Small i had no issues with that. You might want to ask him if you can do that , or the granules are fine too. But i could not stomach the wellbutrin crushed. It made me gag. So might want to try something before hand to cut down the taste. HTH Good luck Mindy

you can still be too tight under Flouro . I have all mine done under Flouro and still have had 2 unfills. Yes it keeps you from being totally closed. But you can still get TOO tight and have to go back for an unfill. With your doc being out of town what's going to happen if you need one ? My Fills dont typically kick in for 4-7 days after my fill . So i dont even find out im too tight until then. I have since learned after those 2 unfills that I dont tolerate 1cc fills I have to get .5cc fills. So dont let flouro be a false sense or security for you . Its not a magic ball. It that makes sense its a tool. You might be better off waiting . HTH Mindy

I did have something, it was a heat rash , i would contact your doc though to make sure its not something more serious. When in doubt contact the doc that's what we paid them for . Mindy

Stress causes my band to tighten up . I also can get so tight before/during my period that I have to go on liquids. I would say if this is still the case you might want to reconsider and put the fill off ? Or discuss it with your doc ? Are you close to your docs office ? My follow ups are free for the first yr so it might not be a bad idea to go in and talk to him about it and the 2 of ya'll can decide together in his office ? In the mean time i would really pay attention to yourself and how your eating , make sure your following the "Rules" and make sure that's not an issue . HTH Mindy
