I dont know about you but I have to be really careful with salt or I blow up like a balloon.

its always nice to know you are not the only one. thanks for the comment

Does anyone else get a sore stomache on occassion? Its like so swollen on occasion that it hurts when food goes thru then I have to back off real food for a couple of days and do liquids and Soups then I can go back to real food this usually happens after a bad stick. steak etc.... Ive lost 96 pds as of today but I really have to keep track of calories to make sure im getting enough or I stop loseing weight and its not that I dont eat cause I do ( I always eat Breakfast, lunch and dinner till im full its just sometimes the calories dont add up so I have to pay attention or i go into starvation mode be nice ive had a bad day.:smile2:

good advice

the only thing I can eat at mcd's is a parfait my favorite or the chicken nuggets. I just get meals at sitdown places and then I eat off them for the next 3 days

still having problems with my signature sorry

rainy day here yuck

I think you should be ok just stick to it as best as you can Its important and I think you will be very happy with the surgery I know I am Im at almost 90 pds lost and last summer I was feeling so lost and out of control and not having a way to stop the weight gain this was the only way for me.

ps you are doing awesome

hi angie919 im doin great I had to call dr rhorschieb's office and push mine out 2 weeks today I had an appt on thur but im tight enough and losing good im almost at 90 pds lost I love dr rhorschieb's people they are friendly and it never takes long when im there. im getting to the point where i dont have to go as often. Hope you are doing well it is nice to talk to other locals who are going thru the same things.

Yes I had a few appt to go thru one was the phsych appt and a couple with the nutritionist After that it wasnt to bad surgery wasnt to bad the worst part for me was and still is on occasion the protien shakes im not a fan but i just tollerate them the first day or two after a fill you will probably need shakes I use unjury. I cant stand bariatric advantage shakes If you need to talk just let me know

Hello im from springfield Il I was banded in clinton by dr. rhorschieb I was banded in aug 08 and im now at the 85 pd mark.hoping to hit 100 pds lost by my june 28th bday. Just thought id say high and if you have any questions let me know.

my doc is the 2 days liquid , 2 days mushi, and then back to normal.......

I have been having this issue to its hard to gage what you are doing wrong im walking a mile a day doing yard work house work and when i eat the portions are right and i usually throw up half of that if im not careful I have lost 77 pds and lately its like pulling teeth you can sure tell im not in my 20's anymore if I did everythingj im doing now back then I wouldj lose 5 pds a week frustrating I know I dont need a fill im tight enough. they wont give me one right now either

I would put it off a bit if you are losing 3 to 4 pds a wk Last time I went my doc put mine off since I lost 9 pds in a month This mnth I am going thurs but im still not sure if I will get a fill I lost 8 pds right away then stayed the same for 2 wks then all of a sudden i have lost 5 1/2 pds. so in 6 wks iv lost 13 pds.

Last month I got the "no fill" routine but im like you I dont know if I need a fill or not I was supposed to have a fill tomorrow and I put it off for 2 more weeks to see what happens ive been at the same weight for about 1 1/2 weeks.I think personally I might need just a smidge to get the ball rolling again

thanks everyone I so need the support

checkin in

IM so happy to be in the 200's bet you dont here that often........................................

I just hit 296.6 this morning down from370 im very proud of that but yeah people think I weigh less then i do I lost almost 75 pds and still have 126.6 left to go.......maybe more if I get good at this but I think 170 would be good for me.

I was banded in august and I followed directions the docter told me this is our stomachs we are messing with doc knows best. I have lost 75 pds since august
