Topic: it's OVERRRR!!!
Well I had my surgery today and am at home and doing well. Hurting a good bit and all of the seating in my house is too low so i'm having to sit on pillows but it'll get better. I was advanced to full liquids today before leaving the hospital. Had potato soup and it was yummy. =)
Now just gotta figure out how to get comfy enough to sleep. I didn't sleep at all at the hospital for some reason.
Thanks for the thoughts and well wishes.

Yep time to visit the doc! He'll understand the weight gain since you aren't as full. Egads watching all those kids would send me straight to the snack bar!!! Anyway see the doc make sure the band is in place and all is well then maybe a small fill to get starrted again and just try to keep healthier snacks around and eat more solid proteins. Oh yeah and take a deeep breathe and relax it always helps!
Topic: RE: My latest fill
YAY!!! Even though I am on liquids till tomorrow , I truly think I can feel "restriction". I guess I will know for sure once I am on solid foods again, but, it IS different than after any other fill I have had as of yet. Still working on the 64+ oz of fluids. But I am getting there.

Thanks, Vivian!!! And, Kim, I wish I had answers. Looks like we're in a similar boat.
One day at a time.
Topic: RE: My latest fill
Thank you! I have to put some flavoring in it , too. Even fresh lemon slices. Sams Club has lemons, but such a BIG bag, will be wasted cuz I know I won't drink enough water fast enough before the lemons go bad. So far today I am doing good. Still liquids for the day and pureed/soft for two days starting tomorrow.

I agree...I would talk to the doc and see what is happening...before I had the band, i was doing the insanity workout and hurt my knee and quit exercising...Your doc may have some insight as to what happened, they can do an xray to see if the band slipped or not...Hope they can find out what is going on....keep us posted
Topic: RE: That time of the month (Tom may not want to read :)
Im not sure if anyone experienced this one or not, but I was told to go off my bcp a month before surgery (last day I took them was Feb 16th). I have not had pd since then and not sure why or what is going on or not...i may have to talk to dr about that one...some of the health posts said that it could possibly take up to 6 mos before it comes back...anyone know if that is true? thanks
Topic: RE: My latest fill
I am having a hard time drinking water also....I always have had water with the drink mixes in them. I cant drink them much anymore...I wanted some lemons for my water which seems like the only way to get my water in....was at walmart and they had NO lemons!!!! WTF!!! Been trying to get my water in and have had soo much problems doing so...
Hope your fill works for you....keep us posted

Topic: WEDNESDAY GRATEFUL POST
Morning Everyone,
Can't believe it is already wednesday. Where has our week gone? LOL Anyway hope everyone is having a great week. Mine is uneventful and I like it that way. This post is to remind us of all the wonderful things in our lives that we have to be grateful for. No matter how large or small. PLEASE feel free to tell us one or more things that you are grateful for today. Today I am grateful for my Friends.....without them I would be totally lost. This journey called life that we are on is very difficult at times.....without friends to talk to and give you their views it would be pretty boring. Love all my friends. I am going to try to shake things up here and quit making a "list" everyday. Have a blessed day today and please don't take things for granted and tell someone you love & are grateful for them. It could be your last chance....never know. Have a blessed day !!!
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian
