That is what it means, they pay 50% and so do you.

Hey 50 & over gang We have a new spot

I had a fill about 2 months ago, sometimes I have a problem with food going down especially solid meat. For the most part I am happy to be at the weight I am and not gaining. -

hi, glad to have found everyone again. I had lap band last Aug. and lost 31lbs but am at a stand still. Trying not to get discouraged and not revert to old habits. -

Saw the doc and now have pills for the thyroid. Never took so many pills in my life, lol. Will see if this was a reason for me not loosing any weight this month. -

Question, I had lap band this past aug. 17 and slowly loosing, 31lbs so far, but now was told my thyroid levels are elevated. Is this due to the surgery? should I be concerned? Going to see my doctor this week.:thumbup: -
Weighed myself today and down to 279.0 and things are going ok. Seems when I "over eat" it comes out as waste which is better then vomit. Not sure how to update my ticker but so far lost 26lbs. Slow and steady wins the race and I am happy with the lose.

So yesterday was my holiday and I had real food, tuna, egg salad and a little turkey and noodle pie, plus a taste of ice cream. I was sore and exhausted from cooking all day though. No problems from the dinner, but back on track today.

I was banded aug. 17 had post op dr. visit sept. 3 and all is well now able to eat anything that would spatter if thrown at the wall. LOL I do not have a great scale at home so I do not know how much more if anything I have lost. Ate turkey chili and noted lots of gas not eating beans again. Only felt unhungry one day so far.

Banded August 17 all went well little pain and was driving after day 4. Cannot wait for some chewing food. Pre-Op visit Sept. 1 and am doing well though losing slowly. Now want to find some toning exercises so I might not have a lot of skin hanging.

Does the band make your "feeling full" signal work stronger?
laurz replied to CapitolChick's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have been drinking my protein drinks and liquids between meals. So am I overeating? That is what I get from the reply or is it that things have not yet settled and that is what the pressure feeling is from?:confused: -
Everything went well slept most of the first three days in between trying to drink. On full liquid diet and not sure if I am eating enough, but at least not overeating. Go to nutritionist Tues. and first post-op dr. visit Sept. 3. Heating pad does wonders for gas by the way.

I am on full liquid diet and am wondering if the feeling I get on the left side is the full feeling? I rarely filled myself to a bloat feeling so I just hope I am eating enough.
