Good Morning all,

I just want to thank you to all of you from the Saturday group you made me feel welcome (even though I'm not a LAP-BAND®). I look forward to chatting with you guys as we all strive to reach our goal. Thanks again!

Maria - your son can sit in the waiting room - my kids did when I had my psych appointment - they were safe.

I bought some Smart Ones this weekend to try until I get my fill on Oct 9. I had the spaghetti w/meat sauce one at 9:30 - it was 310 cal, 16g Protein, way too many carbs and sodium, but I was able to eat it all and it will be Breakfast and lunch. The noodles went down fine. My nose started running towards the end which means my pouch was full. I am leaving work in 25 min to go to the dermatologist for a skin check. Then to Curves and then home for a nap. My daughter was up at 2:50 am coughing and I couldn't go back to sleep until 3:30 then I was back up at 4 am. She was sleeping good when I left the house at 6 am.

Glad to see our new friends on line with pictures and everything - it helps to remember who is who.

Good Luck today Tina -

:tongue:Hi Ladies~

Well I emailed Dr. Park and told her that I did my research on the RNY and Lapband and that I change my mind and I would like to do the Lapband surgery instead..

She wrote back:

"Yes, lapband would be an option"

ok maybe i'm jus being "jumpy" but does that mean Yes she's gonna do it or.. Yes.. its an option but she wants to talk to me about it?

Uggh.. maybe i'm jus stressing.. ok I'll wait till I hit my surgery goal weight and then ask her..

Hope your Monday is going good~

Hey everybody, good morning.

Wow it's nice to see all the new people, welcome!

Monique, Canolie glad you got the pictures up.

good luck tomorrow Maria, I hope you feel better. Have you weighed in at home. I'd always give myself a 3 lbs buffer between my scale and the one at Kaiser. So add 3 lbs to your weight at home and see where you are just to be sure.

I got a auto response from the lab saying negative so maybe I don't have an infection. What's weird is as soon as I got home Sat things were pretty close to normal and so on. Hopefully Dr P will send me a note to confirm...

Pam try to de-stress a bit and get some rest. I've had those smart ones but you are right there are way too many carbs so it's not a good fit for me.

Tina, hope your day is going ok, I know it will take some time to adjust but try and look at only the positives and leave that negative energy at the last job you'll feel a lot better.

Riley, you still rubbing your feet LOL

Candra how are you? what's on the menu for today. Is Robin calling today or tomorrow? I had leftover egg salad earlier and I'm still making the split pea.

So I still weigh the same thing I weighed for the last 2 days. My TOM is coming this week so we'll see how that goes. That explains the mindless eating last night. I'm ready to chuck these carbs, they are no good for me.

LaChica - she is tellin you "yes - it's an option (if you want it) so on your next appointment just be sure to confirm that the band is what you want.

Robin is suppose to call me tomorrow - I go see my PCP tomorrow too for my 2 week thing. I rescheduled with Doc Fisher for the 21st of October so it will be a whole month before I get any type of Fluid in this empty ass band LOL. I had chicken salad today (oops) not pureed but very finely shredded and it went straight thru to the bottom of my stomech. I had 1/2c of that for lunch and a 1/2c egg salad for breakfast - been sipping on my americano all day too. not starving but i chalk that up to eating only Protein and not carbs but still would like to feel full or at least satisfied!! Back to pre op rules LOL

I had the egg salad this morning and it lasted for 5 hrs. Then I had leftover Tomato Soup, lasted 30 min, then SF fudge pop. Now I can't stop thinking of meat. I feel like getting up going to buy a chicken breast. The split pea will be done soon but I'm sure that will go right through me too.

Candra now you are going to see Doc Fish a whole week before my appt.

      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... :(
