I am glad you found a location, afer reading about the first Dr. I almost lost my mind on the computer screen....talking to myself saying are they for real, no way they can't be. Maybe they are still brand new to the lap band all together.

I love Babe's Chicken, send me some...lol....I am licking fingers now,,,,I just hate they use milk in all of there veggies....I am lactose and tolerant....lol...but its still good. I just pay for it in the end...lol

Is this a challege, where did you get your work out from

Congrat and keep us posted on your journey

I took off on Wednesday, was very tired that day. I took off to research schools for my son, but the tireness got the best of me.....i slept until time to pick him up. I went to the gym did some 15 mins of abs work(core) and 1 hour of zumba. I felt good and had the energy. Made it home and my son and I prep for the next day and the bed we went.....

Hey Congrat!!!!!!

I probably was to nervous to feel anything.....I go back for a 2nd fill on August 17. I can not wait tio start droping more lbs myself......

I really wish I could lose about 10 to 15 more by my birthday October 6, I will be 30. I would love to be looking sexy around that time...lol.....

Keep up the good work, and continue to encourage yourself...Its hard not to play into what you hear other people do or what they are not gettiing, but we don't know there full story....So keep the faith!!!!

I would like to go to some group get together. i am glaad I am hearding some of the crazy things people do and will tell about with pride.

Congrat on your journey you are amazing......

I need to find places like this to go.....

I agree with you totally....A girl and her tea!!!!

Me neither, I didn't get the Pop...lol...lol....

Congrat on your lost......we can do it.....I had my fill today. It all went well, nothing like I had plan it.

I do need to go see my doctor because I think I have a stitch sticking through my skin.....

Please don't give in. You are trying to get to a pretty, fine, sexy liver size...lol.....I wanted to put a smile on your face.....are you able to eat a light meal for dinner.

It will go great. find something to do to take your mind off food....experiment with different protein mixes...

Thank you all, I enjoy reading what everyone has to say. I know you all have heard it before, but I will say it again, This site with each of you here makes the LB a better way of living and coping with whatevers going on with a person.

i am truly thankful for beautiful people search as yourselves..........

Aww I am excited for you my first fill is Aug 23rd so I can totally relate on the - scared about the needle- but just think we went thru surgery (cutting and stuff!) you can do it!!! Yea I've lost a total of 16 pds since surgery on July 13th but I am worried when I start mushies and solids in 2-4 weeks before my fill I'll gain it back so I am really watching everything I put in my mouth! Did your Dr. say if he put any saline in the band when he did the procedure?! Well good luck!

I had no saline added...on my follow up appointment he did tell me I could eat a couple of crackers to hold me over until my next meal...lol. but now saline was added.

I will let you know how it goes.

Your picture is beautiful, Congrat!

I get my fill tomorrow....

Hey, we can do the wheat pasta.....I will try this receipe out....

You have got it going on!

I am so excited for you. I get my 1st fill on June 20. I am somewhat terrified of seeing and having them poke me with a needle. I wish I had someone with me to coach me and hold my hand, better yet hold me.

Have you ever had a moment were you just wanted to be held.............................

This is awesome, GREAT JOB, and I am in your footsteps

Very touching and very true!

Thank you!

If all else fells, ask them to put you on a payment plan. many will do this....I am on one myself......Don't give up and keep the faith

Go Go Go...We are into week 3,

I go see the Dr on the 6th myself, i am hoping for good results.....

Congrat!

Yes my hubby is my SAVER!

Guess what I got caught up on Sunday, June 27. was at the MIL home and she asked me about my eating and why I was drinkin my shake.

She was like well what all do you eat. (she caught me off guard, especially since I was still on my liquid diet)....I went ah ah ah ah....my hubby jump right in and said well she can pretty much eat what ever but in smaller portions...my inside just got all warm.

My MIL looked like why is her son answering for me. so I waited awhile and walked out of the room...lol...he later followed...

I was like Thank You for the help. his response was, that's what I am here for.......

Congrat to the both of you all.....

I was so ready to put foods other then liquid in my body.

Yesterday,

for breaskfast: applesauce

lunch: applesauce

dinner: a half of a child size mash potatoe (KFC), and their grill chicken. I took .y chicken off the bone in KFC and put it in my many food chopper.

I had left over chicken(had a chicken thigh). My son killed my mash its his favorite.

Today(Thursday)

breakfast: activa(yogurt) light strawberry

lunch: applesauce and the rest of the chicken

dinner: haven't throught that far ahead...lol....

But I feel really good. I had pain all day yesterday on my left shoulder. I manage to take my son to see toy story after work, he's been waiting...

I am trying to see what I will do for my 3 yr anniversary. My hubby wants to do this mexican diner here, but think I wouldn't be able to enjoy. I asked him if he plan on lettin me eat off his plate...lol...

Oh, my meal price for my son and I yesterday was a total of $5.15.

I am loving this......

I cheated but just alittle. On the days I couldn't get my protein, I only ate lean foods....everything was fine on surgery day. The doctor said my liver looked great..

I am taking the pain meds whenever I need them(sorry, I don't do pain well). I walk constantly around the house. I just did a walk to the trash dump and back. I feel the gas behind my port. No my throat is not sore even though I had a haital hernia repaired too. I could not drink all my protein shake due to being to thick. Once it goes room temp, I don't want it anymore. I use silk/soy milk vanilla light and chocolate prootein powder from my doctors office.

My hubby has been on top of it. Chicken broth(low sodium), water and crystal light. I tried ocean spray cranberry/strawberry. Mainly water, liquid hydrocodone, azithromycin, I have taken my nauesau meds one time. I have not had that feeling, so I am not taking it. Oh, I have been chewing the heck out of gas x...lol

Zumba is FUN FUN FUN....I go once a week, because it is only given on Wednesday at my gym. I will not attend this week due to being banded on Monday. I hope I can make it next week. Enjoy! the key to Zumba is to always move your feet...lol
