  1. AMEN SISTER! I feel the same way. I am getting my first fill in Feb and am hoping I get some restriction from it. I figure I am flying into San Diego and going to the OCC I want to make as few trips as possible. I hope we get some good reasoning on this.

    I haven't officially joined that site. But I do love it. There is so much info. on there. That is where I started before I found this forum.
  3. YAY!!! So glad to hear that you are all doing well. Awesome. I love those damn otter pops too.
  4. Janice do you live in Sac? I will have to make a trip up there and go to the Galleria soon. Maybe we can have lunch or meet up. That is a really cheap flight. Roundtrip from here is about $220. I got my flight free though because of my hubbies SW rapid rewards and I get the next flight free too. YAY! Can't wait.
  5. This sounds really good. I will have to try it.
  6. Hi and welcome to the forum. There was another lady from TN. in Tijuana getting her lap band the same day as me. Have you checked out www.lapbandtalk.com? If you want to research Dr. Rodriguez I would check out that website. That is where I went to decide between Dr. Ortiz or Dr. Kuri. Personally, I highly recommend Dr. Ortiz. He is awesome. My good friend went to Dr. Kuri and she loved him

  7. Welcome to the forum. You are going to love it here. There are so many supportive people. :)

  8. Yeah I made mine for February 3rd at 10 am. I am looking forward to it but hate that I have to fly down there again.

  9. Did you make your appointment for your first fill yet?

  10. How are your incisions? Did the glue come off? Mine finally and did and I am really impressed with the scars so far. They are really faint and look great. How have you been?

  11. I am so excited for all of you! That is awesome. Before you know it you will be done and home. No worries. Everything is going to be great. Update us as soon as you can.
  12. Wow Lisa that is amazing. Congrats on the big loss. I would love to get into a size 6. lol
  13. Thanks for the update. I am so glad that it went well for you. I have my appointment there in a month and can't wait. Are you feeling restriction yet?
  14. I was thinking around 1500-1600 as well. I also put in lose 2 lbs. per week. Hmm very strange. Thanks for the WW point info.
  15. Thank you everyone for listening to me and giving such great advice. I really appreciate it. Genie - you have blown me away with your weight loss. That is just awesome. 2 more days until I can chew. lol
  16. Great resolutions!! Mine are in no particular order lol 1. Walk the dogs more often. 2. Floss my teeth every day. 3. Get down to my goal weight or a size 8 by my bandiversary (12-18) and not be skinny fat. I want to be toned and strong.
  17. Wow you are really active already. I have been doing my elliptical a little here and there and just cleaning around the house. Fun stuff. Great job on the huge loss. That is so awesome. I need to start weighing myself once a week too. This weighing everyday stuff is for the birds. My port area is still a little sore but the scares look really good for being less than three weeks post-op. I am using this stuff call Scar-Guard that I bought a while back. I have a buffalo hump too and once I read this post I felt mine and it is getting smaller too.
  18. OMG mine came back at 1834! That seems kind of high to me. I should just start following WW again. I wish I knew how many calories per point it was.
  19. Great question Genie. I am wondering about this too. Thanks Bogiesmom for the reply. Off to check out that website.
  20. Let us know how it went. I am going to the OCC on Feb. 3 for my first fill. Any words of advice?

  21. Thank you Donna. I keep forgetting about the Benefiber stuff. I need to get some of that.
  22. Waiting to hear how all of you are doing. Please update us and let us know. I hope all of you are feeling good (albeit a little sore) and are very happy with your decision. Please check in when you can.
  23. ppy New Years to you too Angie and everyone else in this bandster family. I feel so fortunate and blessed to have been banded in 2009 and am SO TOTALLY lookimg forward to 2010. What an awesome year we are all going to have.
  24. Six more days until I can have regular food. Don't mistake this as an unappreciative rant. I LOVE my band and feel so lucky and fortunate to have it BUT (and this is a big BUTT) I CAN NOT WAIT until I can chew on something (even if I have to chew it 30 times before I swallow it.) If I eat one more bowl of cream of mushroom, creamy split pea or liquid yogurt I feel like I am going to puke. lol I have lost 14 lbs. so I am VERY happy about that. I just can't wait to bite into a crunchy carrot or an apple. How about any of the rest of us who are working through our 21 days?
  25. Hi there. I would not touch the glue. It is supposed to fall off naturally. I still have a lot too and it is gross but I am thankful that it is winter and no one will see it. lol I have tried the yogurt. It is yummy. I also love those Campbell soup at hand. I like the cream of chicken. Have you tried those yet?
