  1. I went home same day as my removal. I had a slip with just early erosion though so you may have a completely different experience. I will say that as soon as I woke up from surgery all the discomfort I'd had with my band was totally gone. It was like magic good luck!!!
  2. It is exactly what you said. It's 43 pounds and it's freaking amazing. You've lost a 5 year old in 2 months.
  3. As of today, cooler weather is moving through my area (YAY!!!!) and I have this master plan to use my crockpot more this fall and winter. Monday we are starting off with taco Soup in the crockpot but I'm looking for other tasty, reasonably healthy recipes I can throw together before work and leave unattended all day. Any suggestions?

  4. My doc says around 7 weeks. Was possibly the best day of my life HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 198
  5. Really it's very individual. My doc says no sugar, honey, etc but I had hot tea with a little honey when I was sick this summer and had no problem (and I'm a dumper). Now if I'd dumped half a cup of honey in the tea I'd have been sick as a dog. HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 198
  6. Love this!!!! HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 198
  7. If you find a good one please share, so far I've found them all nasty. What I really need is a taste-less Protein...someone work on that for us!!! HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 198
  8. I could have done it. I would have been exhausted and slept on the way down and back but I could have done it. Honestly. Until you're at that point. I don't think you can predict how you'll be feeling and if you're physically capable if going or not. Perhaps you'll wake up that morning feeling great and want to try, but I don't think you can commit to going at this point :/ sorry this is so tough, hope you find peace with your decision. HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 198
  9. You can do it on a mobile but you actually have to log in to the web site. HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 198
  10. If it's okay with your doc then go for it. Watch bananas though. Pretty high sugar content, I dump off them if I'm not careful. HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 198
  11. The last 10 pounds...I've gone from a 38DDD to a 38 D....guess those 10 pounds were all boob :/
  12. Love life Or Live life HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 198
  13. So at three months my only food restrictions were to avoid high fat foods or foods high in simple carbs and avoid processed foods. I am supposed to eat 4 meals a day, 20 grams of Protein per meal. And 15-20 grams of carbs per meal. 800-1000 calories per day. My docs break down is 3 oz meat plus a veg, fruit, or grain for each meal. So, that what I'm SUPPOSED to do hope it helps. HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 198
  14. welcome to the land of nasty protein!!! Good luck!!! HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 198
  15. It's like REAL food when you're on purée. My son (8 at the time) would steal it when I made it. eventually I started makin the ricotta bake for me and boiling spaghetti noodles for him to eat with it, made everyone happy.
  16. Courtesy of eggface. Make sure you do it in the oven, you want it crusty and bubbly!
  17. Depends on your doc, not an issue with mine.
  18. Yes ma'am, slipped band with prolapsed stomach. BIg nasty nightmare. The RNY was been heaven. HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 198
  19. I'm 7 months, was allowed to eat them at 6 or 7 weeks (I probably waited til 3 months for rice, it killed me with my lap bamd and I was scared of it!!!) Don't eat much at 1 time but have no issue with either. HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 198
  20. I can eat brown rice and noodles. Haven't tried white rice. HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 198
  21. It was a good 6-8 weeks before my stomach could register a full feeling. Don't eat til you feel full, eat what you're supposed to. It may be a while before you actually feel 'full'. HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 198
  22. Awesome idea!!! Congrats
  23. You need protein to heal. Do what your surgeon says, they've done this before and know what your body needs.
