  3. Thanks thickchickTexas!! Be Blessed!
  4. Sorry you're feeling bad. I can relate, if I had it to do over I wouldn't. I mean I'm fine until I eat and once I do I'm in pain. I LOVE the weight loss, but the pain I have to go through to achieve it is not worth it. I hope you get better, we'll get through it. I remember posting that I love my band in my journal, in a way I do, but not the issues that comes with it. Be blessed!
  5. I told him about the pain on my left side, the slime thing, oh yeah and the gagging on Wednesday and he said it will go away. WHEN!!!????!!!!! I'm having that slime right now, but I'm not gagging. I always have a paper towel or something handy. YUCK
  6. The slime happens EVERY time I drink or eat!!! I hate it!!! It's happening NOW!!!! I'e never PB'd food, but I've gagged up foam, and slime!! It's GROSS!! I'm always spitting!!!!! I don't mean to gross you all out, but I really HATE IT!!! I can't do this forever!!!
  7. Thanks ladies!!! Be Blessed!

  14. Well I went in for my first fill, but when I told Dr. Harper what has been happening he decided today wasn't a good time. I was fine with that since I don't think I need one. If is't up to me I'd rather not have a fill...it's been eleven weeks and I'm still losing. So hopefully, I can go longer:phanvan. I had the Barium and it went straight through the band, so that was good. I thought my band had slipped, but it's in place:clap2: :clap2: :clap2:. Today's workout was tough on me, I walked my 3 1/2 miles, but I had on my plastic sweat suit and a jogging suit on top of that!!!:faint: :faint: :faint: I know I was wrong for that!! My legs were weak and I felt like I was going to past out and I think the temperature was in the 80's today:faint: :faint: but I kept going to the end. Tomorrow I will take it easy and no more double layered workouts!! Be BLESSED!

  16. Thanks Tammyj!
  17. That's exacatly how I am and I go for my first fill today! I'm scared to eat, because I don't want the pain in my back on the left side or the pains in my chest. So I may eat about 500 calories a day! Be blessed!
  18. That's the important thing! It's bad enough when the fashion industry degrades people that are heavy, now the heavy are are doing the degrading. Not cute.
  19. So true...I really like Star Jones. I sent her an email right after she left the view and received a very nice reply. I think she's a DIVA!! Be blessed!
  20. That's good thickchickTexas!!!! It really feels good knowing the weight is leaving! Keep up the good work! Be Blessed!
  21. Well before I ate that, I had yogurt at around 11am and grapes at about 4:45 and that was it. So I don't know what happened. Thanks ladies! be Blessed!

    Diva, Diva, Diva!!!! You go girl!!!! You and your husband are so cute!!!! That's too sweet! BE BLESSED!
  23. Oh my!! I'm glad you're better! Be blessed!
  24. Well for some strange reason I had to rush to the emergency room late last night. All I ate yesterday was about two tablespoons of tuna, six crackers, a teaspoon of fruit dip, two grapes three slices of strawberries and a few chips and dip. I started to feel the irritation on my left side at about 8pm, but that's not unusual. So at about 11:15pm I started to gag and burp up clear stuff constantly, so it got to the point that I was on my knees. I went to the emergency room and they drew blood and did an x-ray. The doctor said everything looked normal, but they're not that familiar with the lapband. I will tell my doctor on Wednesday, but I feel much better...I do feel a little weak. I really think I'm over doing it with the exercise, because last week as soon as I got off the treadmill I started gaging. I can't slow down my workouts...I need to lose four more pounds by the 31st.:faint: I see I lost another pound since yesterday, I probably burped it off! Anyway, type ya later. Be Blessed!
