Welcome back, Julie!
Don't feel bad about going back. That is a long trip and of course you would want to get the most out of it. I hope your fill works wonders for you.
P.S I think we are all a bit too gassy! LOL
Thanks Cathy and Michelle.
Michelle~OMG..I tried to fix my roots today and my hair turned orange so of course I had to fly to CVS and get an ash blonde to put in it to get the orange out. LOL Now I will wait a few weeks and go blonder. I have a horrible time coloring my hair.
You look amazing! You are so beautiful anyway. (I have told you that before!)
You can't get down when you compare yourself to other people. We all lose weight at different paces and some people are just really good at the lap band thing. (MM) You are also alot smaller than most of us, so your weight loss will be slower.
Keep up the amazing work! You are doing great on your journey and trust me..the difference in your weight IS showing!!
This is me at 56 lbs gone forever. You can really see the areas I need to work on. (my belly!) I have always been top heavy. I had surgery to revise my thyroidectomy scar last week so it is red and really noticeable in these pics. Bella demanded to be in a pic, which is why her face is swollen from crying. 2 year olds have no patience! LOL The last one is of Bella and Miss Daisy.
Hi Alana! Welcome to our group!
I also had a hard time conceiving. I had three miscarriages and then I was finally able to carry my children with the help of Progesterone.
Good luck with your decision on having the lap band. It was the best choice I ever made for myself.

That is just my opinion on the Atkins diet. My bestfriend Lance who was banded with me lost 80 lbs on Atkins and gained it all back very quickly. The same goes for my friends Peggy and Nancy. It just seems to be that the Atkins diet is harsher when you go back on carbs is all I was saying.
Way to go Trina!! =D>
Just remember to take it slow. Eggs don't go down for me, but some people can eat them with no problem.
For dinner, try anything you want! Maybe you can get some tuna or something down.
