  1. I have many questions and posted them. Everyone here is great. I'm still trying to decide if its right for me. Anyway, my question is about not drinking during a meal and 30 minutes after. This really scares me as that is when I usually drink the most. I have tried several times to not drink and have failed. Is there anyone out there that struggles with this same problem? And what did you do to adapt? Thanks again :help:
  2. I really appreciate the honesty. I know most people on this site are all for the band, but the few that aren't sure really help. It seems that everywhere I turn, people that had problems would still do it again.
  3. I'm looking at getting the band in December. What is the pre-op diet? I know each doctor is different so everyone's will be different. I haven't recieved this information from my doctor yet. BTW - Dr. Spiegel - Houston Texas. Thanks for the info. :hungry:
  4. I'm still trying to decide if this is right for me. I think it is, but would like to hear from anyone that have regretted getting it done. Thanks so much
  5. Thanks for the info. I'm looking at getting banded in December. I will be off from traveling for 3 weeks at that time. Keep me posted on more tricks.
  6. I travel every week. Because of this, I eat out for most meals. (not all hotels have fridge or microwave). Has anyone else traveled as much and been successful?:help:
