Hey - just checking in and trying to see if I am still getting the notification when a new post comes out on this thread. When I went into Lapbandtalk.com a couple of days ago I had to log in and then it looked different.

Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving and ate mindfully. I cooked at my house again and had a small bit of everything on a salad plate. I vividly remember my first Thanksgiving after my surgery in Nov 08 - thought I could eat two black olives and then have a few bites of turkey and one bite of stuffing - ouch - my first pb episode - I was miserable for hours.

Wow I finally found our thread again - I think Lapbandtalk.com remodeled or something and it took me a long time to find the Kaiser Richmond Pre-op thread. How is everyone doing now that we are in the holiday season? I am doing good during the day and then make bad choices in the evening. I am seeing Dr. Im on Dec 8 to get my last fill to take me back to where I was at before I had half taken out.

Riley, Monique, Jess, Tina, Nicole, Christine, April - where are you friends?

Pam

Where or where did everyone go? And what happened to this website? Impossible to use - can't find anything. Once I found this thread again I clicked on the "stop watching this" button and then clicked on "start watching" and picked instant notification.

Is anyone able to see this post?

Hi Pam, yes I can read your post. How are and all my LB family?

HI Reggie -

I am doing okay - sticking to my food plan all day at work and then falling off when I get home - I am seeing Dr. Im tomorrow in Vacaville to get a fill to be back where I was before I had 3.5 cc taken out to try a different food plan. I figured out I could eat bread and that lead to a carb fest. Not good. Looking forward to feeling full sooner and getting back on track.

Hang in there Pam, i know the feeling. I can eat bread easily too, but it's a good thing its not something that I really care for. Where is everybody on this site anyway? Hope your fill went well.

My fill went fine - I know have 5.5 cc in my band and I am planning on going back in a month and get my last cc to take me to 6.5. The Lapbandtalk website changed its format and it took me forever and a lot of work to find our thread again and set my settings so I would be notified of a new post. I think many of the other people can't find it. I may take the link to this message and send it to some of the others on Facebook.

Hi everyone, Pam thanks for pinging me on FB. I miss you guys. I'm able to see your post too. Glad you got your fill. I think i'm done with fills for a while. I sometimes over-do-it and things get stuck. I'm kind of in a rut right now, been eating carbs since turkey day and I need to break that cycle. I had lost like 5 lbs but I think I've gained them back.

Reggie good to hear from you too. I keep saying I'm going to check in more often and don't but I'll try, I know I need the support.

Maybe we should plan a holiday get together and walk in the cool winter air?

ok, .

I am up for a walk - anyone interested in Vallejo like we did before? I keep up with most of you on Facebook, but don't really like talking about lapband on there - too personal. Did you figure out how to track the thread? Don't know why they went and changed the website - made it harder to do everything.
