losingjusme

i just had plastics and im pretty sure it messed up my cycle ... who knows ... sorry no real help, just wanted to let you know you're not alone.

LOL .... and not everyone goes through their band being so tight, they have serious issues.... once you receive proper restriction, it becomes much easier... hang in there, you can do it.

good luck on your 1/2 Julie!!

sorry, i somehow missed the fact that you have your band although it's in a drawer. i dont think Alex meant for life after lap band support to mean trashing the band. im so glad that DS worked for you and you arent stinky, YAY!! sunshine and rainbows. maybe, Alex can create a i still have my band but its in a drawer somewhere forum...

i guess my 160+ pounds lost means im not losing weight. really, Sue. you dont have a band, why are you here? if you dont like what we are saying on a lap band support board, go to OH... have fun over there ...

my PS said the garment was for my comfort ... until my last visit then he suggested i wear it to help with swelling... im still VERY VERY swollen. i had my PS on 2/29

i just saw this thread. how are you doing?

best of luck to you on your consult.

i cannot imagine 4-5 days! so sorry you wont be with DD for the first prom, but you'll be there (and in flatlands) for the 2nd.

im so excited for you Lauren!!

i guess i'll do it T, R, Sat this week... its just 3 days, right?

it really all depends on how you react the the anasthesia (sp?????). it wiped me out the first few days. but when i was awake, i was awake...(and bored stupid in the hospital all alone - thank God i had LBT and my blog to post to!!!) with walking, it all depends on what you surgeon says... mine wanted me upright the day of surgery, but he used the progressive tension sutures... the nurses said most docs the day after surgery want you bent almost at a 90 degree angle.... check with your doc on when he thinks you'll be upright. im so excited for you!!

lol ... i know, i was kidding... but i can imagine someone saying that ...

i'll join you but with a very modified version ... my 'walking' will be about 1.5MPH and 'running' will be maybe 2MPH. doc hasnt cleared me for faster than that.

love your tat She!

i think id rather be large and work my ass off than be "normal" and have stinky problems all day long. the band has, for the most part, changed my lifestyle. what part of a lifestyle change (other than being painfully afraid to pass gas) has the DS given to their patients. can still eat garbage (even boasts about it).. thats not a healthy lifestyle change... WLS is not just about losing weight, its about changing your lifestyle and i ate garbage 24/7 before my surgery... dont need a surgery to continue that..

BUT (and that's a big but...) this is not a DS forum. if we were trashing a DS'er on their forum, then that would be a different story...

yes yes ... before someone calls me on it (pinkywhatherface) i KNOW it's right ... not wright.

wooo hooo, i was write .... (heh... :cursing::tt1:)

my throat is fine, my middle toe on my left foot itches though.

since August, i've lost about 10-15 pounds, but many many many inches... im thinking 8 off my waist (pre tummy tuck), 6-7 off my hips, thighs, bust, etc about 3-4 each. there are days i'd take the inches off before the weight cause the inches are more noticeable. the weight is 'just a number'... you're doing great - dont sweat it. :cursing:

ohhhhh.... i know whose (who's??) posts you've been reading!!! :cursing: ok ... which is it, whose or who's ? i say one, DH says the other... come on grammar gods ... :tt1:
