Maria's Memo



Recommended Posts

I guess, i do not like talking about myself, i am not very interesting, i have a boring life i guess.

I go to work, come home cook supper, get on the computer, go bed, next day do the same old thing all over again. Boring right.:(

Oh, I don't believe that! I'm sure you have stuff to tell!

What did you eat today? How's eating going for you? How much can you eat at a time?

I don't *really* measure... but I know it's not much. I went to subway for lunch, and soooo badly wanted a sub, but I got a 'deli sandwich', with ham, cheese, lettuce, Tomato, pickles... and honey dijon. I was amazed I could eat almost half. I stopped, mostly because I was 'stuck. At least I have lunch for tomorrow! yuck!

Irish Mist

You can't be boring, you chose a handle of a very great tasting liqueur. I try to stay away from it cause it's loaded with sugar. You can have it on the rocks, straight up or in an Irish coffee.

Recipe for Irish Coffee

1 once of Irish Whiskey

1 once of Irish Mist

coffee

Whip Cream

Try it, it will keep you happy and the leprechauns around.

Tell us are you Irish? Do you like the Irish, do you love the Irish? Tell us, is there a reason you chose this handle?

There is so much you could tell us.

I'm waiting.................

I thought Irish Mist was the soap.... hmm...

My parents (or more-so my dad) used to make a big deal out of every holiday.. On St. Patricks Day, I'd leave out green foods for the leprechauns, and one year, Sean the Leprechaun left me a thank you letter!! :omg:

Hi Argon, I don't measure quantity's, as soon as i feel full i stop, so far it is working for me, i have only had the one fill so far, 4cc's and i am doing okay with that, i hope for another while yet.

Hi Wheezy, I wanted Irishrose as my handle, irish because i am irish of course, and Rose because that was my mom's name, but it was already taken, so i went with the next best thing.

I have to say although i have been told Irishmist is a great tasting liqueur, i have giving it as gifts often enough. Myself i have never tasted it, i dont drink ( told you i was boring):couch2:.LOL

I love it that i am Irish.:)

Hey Irishmist, your own thread, WTG, I love it, marias memo, thats great!!

YOU ARE NOT BORING!!! We are gonna drag it out of you, yet. Boring people don't get lapbands. what do you do at work? do you have kids? do you have pets? do you have siblings? I know, I know I bet you drive a red convertable corvette, right?

You don't have to answer, I'm just being dumb. But if you wanna, then I wanna know!! lol

Maria, does your band hold 10 cc's then, I noticed you had 4cc's fill. Do you fell stuck sometimes, still?

Do you mind me asking who did your fill?

Of course not Cloe i do not mind you asking. I wish i did have a red convertible

I have two daughter's and four grandson's (would love a granddaughter) but nothing seems to be happening in that department, although my youngest daughter would love another child, but is having a hard time getting pregnant.

My husband and i just celebrated our fortieth wedding anniversary.:love:

I did have pets, i had two cats but the last one Tiger had a stroke in March and never returned home from the vet's (and i still miss him).:think

Yes the band holds 10 cc's, and Dr.Cobourn did my fill, you know i have never had a stuck feeling yet, or slimed ( i hope i never do), i don't think it is something i would like to experience.

WHAT, you have never been stuck!! I need you to come to my house, you need to slap me up side the back of my head every bite to remind me to go slow. You are my inspiration!!! I am going to think of you every meal. Every day I don't feel stuck all day, I'm gonna let you know. (don't wait by the computer).

"40" YEARS!!!! WOW!!! Fantastic!! My husband and I will be married 17 1/2 years. Time does fly by dosent it.

I'm sorry about Tiger.

Man, I can't believe you have never been stuck, not even like tight going down, nothing?

No i can honestly say i have never been stuck. I was always a very slow eater before banding, i am worse now.

The joke around our home is get mom started eating:hungry: first, she might finish the same time as everyone else. LOL

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
