Just wanted to say that having a period with a lap band makes your stomach feel like a giant Water balloon with a tennis ball inside.

That is all! :unsure:

I have noticed that this month it feels like that... I can feel my uterus this month it's painful never had this happen before weird.

Plus I gained like 7 lbs this past week they say it's Water weight I sure hope it goes away soon and I get back on track...

Here's my trick for chocolate cravings. I keep a bag of Hershey kisses in the freezer. The rule is I can have only one and I have to suck it...no chewing allowed. It takes a long time to suck one til its gone when its frozen and its only 25 calories. It cures my craving every time.

I was recently banded but the first time mine came it was 6 days early and was brighter in color than I ever saw in my life and heavy.

I am scheduled to have my surgery on May 24. My period should come on or around that day. Not looking forward to it. "It" always knows when to strike. I love the hershey kiss idea!!!!

I usually cant tell that I am on my period other than the obvious... no cramping, or anything like that.... but since I have had LB I know its here! I was at Zumba on Tuesday and I thought I was going to fall over from the pain from the cramps! I had to stop and go sit down! It hurt so bad that when I got home I took 2 of my pain pills I had left from surgery! It sucks!!!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
