have a good time at rr tomorrow, y'all; wish i could be there. jamie, you will love the girls; they are soooo supportive.

okay, confession time; i thought that maybe the band wasn't really all that restrictive for me as i don't have "full" feelings. i portion out what i think is appropriate and that is it. well, this morning i arrived early at art class; i was the only one in room for about 20 min. I had a Breakfast sandwich that i had removed one bread portion from, as i have done before. However, my mind was totally elsewhere and I did the following: 1) i took a larger than normal bite; 2) did not chew my 30 times; and 3) took another large bite. all without thinking. suddenly, i experienced the "uh-oh" and immediately tried to take a drink! Wrong!!:tongue::yikes: So I have now officially experienced SLIME and a PB.....gawd, it was awful....i was all alone and thought i was dying! Of course, it passed, but if I thought that my band wasn't really working, I was obviously wrong!:eek:

So, Jamie, don't make the mistake of being distracted as you put food into your mouth! It won't happen again to me!!:tongue:

How did you know that was the ONE thing I'm most worried about?!?!?! :tongue::tongue: I'm scared to death that I'll forget I have a band and just go hog wild for a few bites and then PB and slime all over myself. :eek:

Oh My Goodness Deb!!! I am sorry to hear this!!! Well, I am 9 months out and having PB'd or slimed, but I got so stuck the other day, I feared that my record would be broken! The enemy is being too hungry and taking too large of a bite -- that's my enemy! The old inhale mentality takes over and I forget my new Lapband manners! I feel for you!!

Don't be jealous Deb, but last night, I got to see "our guy's" wife! She was here for her last and final rally! I hope he wins today!!!! She's the sweetest woman!

How did you know that was the ONE thing I'm most worried about?!?!?! :lol::) I'm scared to death that I'll forget I have a band and just go hog wild for a few bites and then PB and slime all over myself. :lol:

Don't worry! If it happens once, you'll remember next time. I am 9 months out and it hasn't happened yet. Stuck yes! Leftovers heated in the microwave and being super hungry was my problem! No PB or sliming yet. Boy was I scared it was coming back up!

Dee!! Soap! Don't forget the soap! Consider this your official reminder... :lol:

Going to the airport now! OMG IT'S REALLY HAPPENING!!!!! :cursing::w00t::laugh:

Okay Sister! I just talked to you on the phone! I'm home now and I'm going to get the soap and put it next to my purse, keys and camera! I'm going to the hairdresser at 1700 to get my color done, so I hope she doesn't fix my hair in an ugly way! If I am late, I am sorry. Denvergirl should be there - get us a big table, round is best for conversations and I'll get there as soon as possible! I can't wait to see you Jaime Girl!! AND all the other Banditos!

Jaime's "leaving, on a jet plane...." That was me serenading you guys. Just be glad you couldn't really hear it in person!!!

GREAT! I haven't been hugged a long time! Probably since Deb and Denvergirl met me at the Atlanta Bread Co. So I'll take all the hugs I can get! A girl can get pretty lonely being single!

Thanks for the singing! Very pretty voice!!!

Hugging you back!!:thumbup:

Aw Deb you poor thing. Doesn't take much to remind us how to eat. A PB will do it for sure.

You know after awhile the BITE will feel like it is too much. I've spit out food on occasion because that PB pain is not something I'm eager to experience. Lucky for me my dog is more than happy to take that bite off my hands!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
