You're not in the green zone if ur throwing up . Maybe too tight

I understand ! I was scared also.what kept me going was knowing it was temporary,knowing it will help me have a successful surgery,and knowing that I had to conquer this if there was any hope of living with the band.My tip is to NEVER leave home without ur soups/drinks.Like another post said I wasn't hungry often after day 3 BUT if i did it hit quick and hard but having ur drink right there will kill it.The couple of times I wasn't prepared when hungar hit I felt like a crazy woman that could eat a house.but soon as I put a little warm soup on it I felt much better ! Good Luck !

Don't forget "are" when it should be "our" !! I recently had this rant on FB.I told people I would start to un friend them if they couldn't spell or use the the proper word.

I don't know about every thrift store but the salvation army and goodwill use the money to feed and house people and do job training pay utility bills etc.so if some one in " striking Gold" they are helping a child eat or a mother pay a bill so it may be worth it. Coincidentally I just had this conversation with someone who said " why font they just give the cloths away to people who need them" when I explained what they do she gave clothes and money to salvation army .so thAts a longwinded way of saying I think u should give to s help organization.I personally like the interview clothes for women .:-)

I was talking to someone about " calorie confusion" the same concept as muscle confusion.so they say if u do the same exercises everyday ur muscles stall and stop burning fat or building.they say it's the same with food.if u eat 1200 cal every day ur body will adjust and stop losing but if u " confuse" ur brain a little and up the calories a couple of days then lower them back down ur body never adjusts and u will continue to lose.Now I have no idea if there is any truth to this but it could explain ur situation.

Last month I did 1 LB a week.This month I'm aceraging 2 lbs a week.I think ur on track.

Not being able to eat is not normal and waiting 4 weeks is not good.sound like u need a alight unfill.please go get it checked out before it slips.

Don't beat urself up . It's normal it's life. U recognize it Now don't pull that crap tomorrow !!! LoL !! Goodluck !! :-)

What I know about Kaiser is that even though they offer the band they will try to steer u toward the sleeve .they will give you a bunch of reasons but I think the real reason is that they do the sleeve in house and have to contract out the Band surgery so it cost them more. Here is a nonbiased chart on sleeve band and bypass Trueresults.com http://www.trueresul...-loss-surgeries Goodluck !

Woo Hoo !! Congratulations !!

Me Too !

WOW sooo sorry to hear that.Ironically I just posted that I had never heard of anybody dying from the band.soo sad.I have had a really good experience so far and my doctor told me " regardless of what u may read on the Internet ,vomitting is NOT normal !! If it happens you get to an ER and call me on my cell!!" I hope we all can learn something from this.We got the band to take better care of ourselves and hopefully live longer, but then we neglect the signals.I have read sooo many posts where people are not thinking that their issue is serious and dealt with ith it for days or weeks even before they post, Luckily there are great bandsters on here that have screamed ( in writing) Go see ur doctor !! Praying for peace of mind for u and the her family :-(

Ohh wee the name makes me not want to try it ! Good luck !

I keep planning to get a regimen going but never do.but I've noticed that I actually decide to walk more now.My mom lives 1mike from me and I decided to walk to her house and back usually I may walk one way and drive or ride back on a good day.Also walking around the park instead of sitting while my son plays.But I am thinking of getting a trainer this fall.

Hiring somebody to yell at you about stuff u know you should do is called MOTIVATION !! I will probably do it this fall after I get settled in on my new job.Good luck !:-)

Yes I gained at each stage but I quickly adjusted within about a week and started losing again

Most meat protein has a lean ( more expensive) version but honestly personally I don't worry about that I try to get it in and decrease the sugar intake.

Anybody know about this? I assume the ice water is supposed to increase ur metabolism somehow?

Congratulations Cover girl !!
