Yes, the key to a good B-wax is to have a good waxer without a doubt. The first time I had it done, it was AWESOME! I have posted on this thread about it. However, the second time wasn't as great. The waxer I had the first time moved to Seattle. So, I used the other lady that was in the same building and she is just learning how. Need I say more?!! LOL Make sure that the waxer knows what they are doing especially when it is your first time to get it done!

Hey gals! Sugar waxing is a ball of wax with sugar in it. She just rubbed the ball over the area and it took the hair off. There was no wax, cloth, and PULL! NONONO. Just rolled the ball of sugar wax over the area and off with the hair! It WASN'T as bad as I thought at all! I highly recommend it!

I am not sure if it is the norm to do "sugar waxing" but that's what I had done and it wasn't so bad. So, I recommend it. I couldn't imagine having the regular waxing done down there! OUCH! Lip is much worse for me.

Yes! Starbucks is the ONLY thing that works for me! However, it doesn't work if it's not in the morning or if I have drank a little too much coffee! I think it might be the initial shock to the system! :thumbup:

HI all! I have been MIA here! I finally, got things worked out with the pinhole leak as far as I know anyhow. However, during this period I have become addicted to the "sliders" mainly chips and queso. My NY Resolution is to go straight meat and solids and forget the sliders. Does anyone have any helpful suggestions? Ashley:eek:

The key to losing fast is having a fill that works! I am over a year into this and have only lost 50 lbs. However, for the past five months, yes it took them that long to figure out I had a leak! Onward and upward now!

Woo Hoo! Go Boo Boo! Just voted!

I have heard numerous good things about him! If you do a search on this site for Dr. Jay, I'll bet you can find some info! I didn't use Dr. Jay but didn't know about him until after the fact!

Mini--There had to be something that you started doing that made it come off again. More exercise? Slim Fast? I know you said the Chili/Frosty but I don't think so! However, that would be great! Anyhow, I have been sitting at 180-185 for 3/4 months now and could use any pointers that you may have. What was your breakfast and dinner like? exercise routine? Any help would be appricated! CONGRATULATIONS WOMAN!

Ok, so I want opinions on whether clothes should be tighter or looser? Do fitted or baggy clothes make you look better? I have always been a baggy clothes person so you wouldn't see the rolls, however, I am starting to think this makes me look bigger. I don't want the rolls to show but don't want to look like a truck either, is there a happy median? :wink_smile:

Yes, probably alot of us have felt judged. However, many of us here have made the choice to change ourselves because of it. That's why we sit here posting on a LapBand site! :teeth_smile:

Yeah, I almost went with that guy! Bum deal! I am so glad you found another doctor and are able to resume your journey!! :tt2: Yay!

They do my fills under fluoro, they should be able to see if anything is wrong there right?

I ,too, am having fill issues. I had my 6th fill last Wed, thought it was going to be good because when I ate soup it made all of the grumblings that I hadn't heard in months! However, two days later on solids.....NO restriction! I am a self pay and each fill is $200.......YOUCH! That can eat a paycheck quickly! So, I dunno....calling fill doc on Friday to make a fill. However, I think I will set it up after vacation! :cool2: Right now, I have been drinking Slim Fast twice a day to try and ward off any weight gain. Any helpful hints/comments would be greatly appreciated! Oh, I haven't had any good restriction in about 2-2.5 months...

Val--How much total fill do you have? what size band?
