Moo

I said yes and reason being I've never had the chance to wear one I've been pretty big since I was 9 so even tho I'll probably be 30 by then... I'm still going to try it out!

Sounds like your doing great :thumbup: Im about a month post op and im feeling pretty good myself i backed up and am still kinda on mushy foods just cuz i want to give my tummy a little extra time to heal. I could eat anything i wanted and it doesnt bother me but im sure it could do some damage so i just avoid that train wreck lol I bet your going to have an easier time at work in a few weeks you adjust pretty quickly keep us posted :tongue2:

I wasnt ever told anything about bubble gum

Yea I'm pms right now and walking by food places was sooo horrible cuz it all smelled so good. But you at least admitted you made a mistake and are trying to correct it! And not trying to sweep that elephant under the rug :biggrin:

Wow I suggest getting a fill doctor close to home to save some money! But I don't think they put in a whole bunch at a time it's horrible you have to travel that far for a fill tho

Sorry if these as too big the first 3 pictures are from my wedding and one was in the limo with my husband and my best friend before the wedding then the last 2 are of me now im about 20 lb lighter but i hide from the camera and try for the perfect angle so that i can look thin :cursing:

Haven't been banded even 2 weeks yet but as for right now it's a yea probably... But might be a hell yea once I get a fill my band doesn't have anything in it at the moment so I'm getting a bit hungry but still down weight since the surgery so yea on the fence but leaning on the yes side and that was self pay

Thanks for the replies and they have had alot more fast food in the house and i just have to get used to the fact that they love food too at least im not starving or anything yet lol.. They dont go out to eat when i cook for them meaning in short they are lazy and if i dont cook someone in a uniform does, but im feeling better ill probably start cooking again monday unless its over 100 degrees aain next week and we dont have an air conditioner i refuse to leave my cold cave of a room then lol i mean i am on solid food again i could cheat but i really dont want to and that there is the most important thing i think!

have my blogs up and running on youtube look me up as CreamyMoo

I used them for my surgery they havent been too bad yet and my mom uses them for her teeth and i havent heard her complain and believe me if there were an issue she would thats just the kinda mom she is

I've always been a night person :biggrin: up watching anime and playing video games mostly

Lol yea I had weight gain after but it started coming off I only had a 3 day preop diet and then surgery on Saturday the 14th and I'm down 12 pounds and already onto puree food I video blog on YouTube my username is CreamyMoo it really helps to document every day and focus on what's getting better

I got banded on the 14th I had alot of pain too but for the past couple of days I've felt fine I just can't lay on my tummy or my left side for some reason lol

I'm doing video blogging on YouTube my user name is CreamyMoo if you want to look me up :biggrin:

Yay there's a place to post in august now instead of posting in the June thread :biggrin:

I've started making blogs and putting them on YouTube was just wondering if anyone else that was banded in august is starting that up :smile: I was banded on the 14th! And I love it! If you want to check out my video blogs I'm CreamyMoo on YouTube :biggrin:

I don't know if it's just me not feeling good, the smells of the fast food my husband and his brother are bringing home, or my husband going out to eat almost every dinner since I got on liquid diet because I'm not cooking and I guess they are too lazy to do it. When I felt fine we wouldn't go out much cuz my husband would complain about getting fat and stuff, he wears a medium shirt he's just got it all in his head.. But as soon as I'm off my feet they go eat the good stuff and I'm here sipping liquids meh sorry I'm just annoyed and he tells me I have no reason to be and that it's probably just cuz I don't feel good that I'm being unfair... I just wanted to vent that

I'm doing much better today! You aren't dreaming it isn't horrible laying down for me and getting back up hurt the most but the day of surgery I walked a bit at home the next day I walked a mile and my goal 2 days out from surgery is to walk 2 miles so it really is fast recovery and it's important to move around during recovery the bending stuff might be a bit difficult but I didn't cry from pain or anything I had some gas pain in my shoulders and some other gas pain that I just took care of with gasx strips. I don't have kids but I have a husband and his brother that I cook and clean for and I was ok doing it the next day.

We did go with care credit only because it was hard to get credit anywhere else so meh they are ok we are taking out a 401k loan to pay it all off next month the payments would have been 300 ish a month but they charge alot of interest. But they work I'm glad I got it all done all in all

2 days after surgery trying to get in at least a mile of walking every day even if it takes me a few times on the treadmill walking for 15 minutes then resting a few hours I might try to get more in today I know I need to get that walking in :cursing:

I'm just curious I got my band yesterday no nausea or anything just gas lol and I just eat cuz I need to get something down but not at all hungry wondering how long that will last :cursing:

I just got banded today and I've made 2 video blogs I'll share when I get my computer back

Hi I live in santee I am feeling tired etc ... Cuz I just got my band today! My heart rate was super fast the whole time they couldn't find reason for it but I was super scared

I think he just wanted to spend time with me cuz he knows I'm nervous.. But eek! It's today in a few hours and can't sleep!

My husband sat here and ate a whole carls jr meal in front of me I broke down and and 1 fry it's so hard to watch him eat that
