Hello,

I am 48 years old a grandmother of 4, 3 girls and 1 boy...I adore all of them. I enjoy the outdoors (although the weight has kept me from being active for the last 6 or more years) I am really anxious to get my new life started and really need someone who has been there someone who wants to help me get through this next year. My first real issue is diarrhea, this is driving me crazy...I am 12 days out and still having this issue...the nutritionist just kinda of laughed and said...that happens. I saw a thread where someone suggested Immodium, that's sounds like a good idea, anyone else agree.

Hi there, sorry to hear about your problem.. I see you posted this thread over a week ago and no one responded.. I think it's a good idea to check into one of the sights for age specific or weight specific groups. Just read some of the ones that have lost of posts and pages and find one with people who sound nice to you.. I did that and have found a good one... It's sometimes hard to start a new one... Just find one and jump in and introduce yourself... You'll be amazed at how friendly and willing to help people are... Now that I've been at this for a while I usually only go to a couple threads where I have found a home... Try it out... I hope your problem is better by this time.. Next you will get introduces to constipation.. That's the one I hate!!! Take care and best of luck on your journey...

I was banded 3-4-2008 almost one year to the day of your surgery. Let me know if I can help with anything
