    Extreme Craving!

    I was the queen of diet coke! I drank one first thing in the morning like a coffee and then would drink at least another 6 or 7 through out the day. I never thought I could give it up, but I did. About a month before the band I started on caffine free then slowly each week less and less. I still havent had one since the band, I'm scared lol. I was told bubbles are super painful and that the carbination could cause band erosion...? I think me having the fear is a good thing lollol You will do what is right for you. good luck and keep us posted!
  4. Hello, I am so happy to hear about the new addition to your family, and the soon to be as well. I bet you are so excited! Thank you for checking on me :) It is getting close, I am due Oct 14th. I went in last week for a sonogram and they said he is weighing in at 5.8 lbs right now, my daughter was 8.2 (that was before the band). I didn't think he was going to be as big, but it looks like he just might. I can't wait, and I am I really glad to hear that your daughter in law was able to lose again, I have been a worried about that, even though everyone tells me not to be. I feel a lot better now. Congrats and keep in touch! Thanks again :)

    The best thing about losing weight

    That's awesome!!! For me the best part has been that I am 8.5 months pregnant and have not swelled or had high blood pressure at any of my check ups! With my daughter I was 50lbs heavier and it was awful. I was so swollen I could barely bend my fingers and toes and my bp was so high I had to have it checked once a day and was always worried about going into labor early. i LOVE my band!!!

    its been a while!

    Hi! I am the same way except for me I am super restricted until about 6 oclock...then I can eat. Some days I don't even try to eat anything besides yogurt or milk before then. After 6 I am still restricted but not to the point of getting stuck. It's so weird! I have had one fill 5cc in a 10 cc band...After the baby comes I am gonna try for one more small fill. Hope all goes well for you, you are so close to onederland!!! Keep it up and keep us posted! PS Congrats on the new addition

    NO Patience

    I hate that, something's out of order but I can't put my finger on it, feeling. The good thing is that it WILL pass. Keep up all of your hard work, and it will pay off...Remember a lb a week is 54 lbs a year. SO even half a lb a wk is 27! I know, though, I got pregnant a month after my band. I can't wait to be able to have another fill and get back on track. I feel like I have wasted 8 months of weight lose time We will do it togehter! Keep in touch and keep positive

    Somewhat dissapointed

    Slow and steady win the race! 10 lbs in 3months is good! Thats almost a lb a week. And a lb a wk is 54 lbs in a yr. I think sometimes when you lose slowly it's easier to stay off. Don't feel bad, let your body adjust and do it's thing! Stay positive and keep us posted! GL you are doing great!

    Discouraged!

    I'm sorry to hear that u had to go through so much! Don't worry, the worst part is done and now you can get back on track! PS don't feel bad about what your mom said, she is prob just worried about you and does'nt understand...you know how moms can be it sucks though...my mom got mad at me when I had it done too...GL!!!
  19. Damn!!! I am so happy for you, you look crazy amazing!I can't get over how tiny you are! 100 lbs is so good! You are hella inspiring. I can't wait to get there...Oct 15th is my planned c-section...after that...I can get a fill and get to work... :)

    In horrible pain four days out

    I'm sorry to hear you don't feel well, but it will get better! I was so moody after for about 2wks. I would yell at my husband and cry from tv commercials! LOLLOL....But, all will be better, just make sure you are drinking lots of protein shakes! The protein will help make you feel "not so crazy" and help with being hungry. My doc had me on liquids for the first 2 weeks. About 5 days later, after the swelling went down, I was so hungry, but I found that soup broth and protein shakes helped and it ended up not being very bad! Good luck and keep us posted!

    Stress and the band

    OMG!!! I swear I was just about to post this!!! I had a clever name for my blog and everything...it was gonna be" instant restriction via stress"! LOL! It is so bad for me! It's to the point where I don't want to even eat if Im going through anything or my daughter is being naughty. I could be eating soup...she starts crying and next thing you know...Im hugging the toilet! I get soooooo tight from stuff that usually slides....I'm glad I'm not the only one....Ps Sorry you are going through some stuff! It will get better! Take care and keep in touch!
