  1. This is a common problem for gastric bypass people, but this should not be an issue with the band. Once you start solid foods, make sure you get enough protein in your diet. You can also take Biotin (this is good for strengthening hair and nails) if you are worried!
  2. I have only lost 24 pounds so far, but I can tell a huge difference in the way I feel as well as the way I feel about myself!
  3. Congrats! Welcome to the other side!!! The burping is normal!
  4. I take Biotin capsules and do not have a problem with them.
  5. Wow...you go girl! Pizza is so hard to turn down. You should be very proud of yourself!
  6. I will keep you in my thoughts and hope that things get better!
  7. Way to go!!! I am sure that must be a great feeling!
  8. That is such a beautiful song, and I can just picture you singing it!
  9. I GP told me that he was sure I had sleep apnea based on info I gave him. He wanted me to have a sleep study done. My father had sleep apnea and had to wear that mask. I never had the seep study done because I was afraid they would make me wear one. I sleep propped up on six pillows and take Simply Sleep to help me. This post has made me think twice about that.
  10. I love rollar coasters! I want to be able to ride suspended rollar coasters instead of the traditional ones and not be afraid that my fat ass is going to break them!!!
  11. Well said Kim! I agree...this forum is a wonderful place!!!
  12. Thanks y'all...the spell check icon is not available for Fire Fox users.
  13. Chrissy, I live in Roswell. The wonderful thing about our location is that there is a Fill Center right here in Roswell. Some people have to travel for hours to get to a Fill Center!
  14. OICU812...you crack me up! I want to go out with my family and not be an embarrassment to them. I also want to be able to wear a bikini and go on a shopping spree and be able to buy the cute clothes...not the ugly ones for fat people!
  15. Don't be nervous...you will be in great (and handsome) hands!
  16. I was 282 when I decided to get banded, and I got the 4cc band. It really just depends on the size of your stomach.
