yup ... time heals most ... oh boy post-tt cramps are a bitch!

i made the mistake of showing DH the dip... he was droooling ... guess i need to stock up. i found it in Super Target.

protein and a little fat, maybe a piece of lunchmeat and slice of cheese?

hi, welcome to LBT. the only thing i have a problem with sometimes is solids in the morning. then i just have an Atkins shake and im good to go until about 11ish... i have no particular food that gives me problems, except for sometimes bread and it all depends on how 'doughy' it is. the only time i go to the bathroom and cough up (PB) is when im not following the bandster rules and have not chewed well enough, eaten too much or drank with my meals.. the band has helped me change my life. good luck on your surgery.

sounds like your Protein intake is low. if you cant get solid protein in, maybe a slight unfill to allow it or sprinkle some Protein powder in some of your liquid-y type foods. that may help.

cut, pull and reconnect ... it ummm, also kinda tightens ya up a bit ... VERY VERY good thing! VERY good thing... ummm, yeah ... very good thing.

well i bought it, made the chicken salad and will have it for dinner tomorrow night. im so excited to try it... the chicken and dip is barely ANY calories (points - im doing WW for a little bit)... so i'll let you know ...

if you are unable to care for your child, you need to surrender him or her. its just really so very sad....

extended TT is further than hips. my blog has extensive pics. panni is just getting the pannus - usually only below the belly button - cut off. TT involves both above & below BB, I also had hips pulled up, mons lift (google that one) and slight thighs. I'm a month out and feel GREAT... just wish the swelling would go down more..

its a thread that has really good general information or an extremely popular thread.

f'ing pathetic excuse for a human being. that poor little boy. Lawmen: Neglected boy, 4, weighs 10 pounds (with MUG) - Northwest Florida Daily News

salsa, i had a complete unfill.

salsa, my LB doctor insisted on it. and im actually glad he did cause i really swelled after surgery and even with a completely empty band, i was pretty well restricted for a few days. now... not so much. i wish i could get back to where i was. they SAY i have about 9ccs in my band and i have little to no restriction ... stinks

congratulations!

people are going to think i work for the Avenue. i LOVE thier body shapers... they do let you try them on. i get just the biker shorts that are SUPER sucker inners and they do not roll down on me. they are $28 each. and yes, the 'beloved' camel toe ... ick ick ick ... hated mine and so glad i got rid of it.

hi, congrats on your band. running is higher impact, so you may want to ask your surgeon about that specific activity. if they clear you, we have a new couch to 5K thread going, come join us!

i am so sorry for your loss.

welcome Nora, you may want to start a new thread in insurance questions or pre-op. this thread is about visitor messages ?

hi, welcome to LBT. my original goal was to lose 222 pounds (402 - 180). i've since dropped my goal weight by 20 pounds so i have 242 total to lose. i have about 80 to go. good luck, when you use the band as a tool, and you eat right and exercise to the best of your ability, you can do it!!

umm, yeah - eww TG, i couldnt agree with you more.

braven, good luck tomorrow.. my TOM came the day of, about 5 mins after they did the preg. test... see you in bandland!!
