HOWDY DO MICHELLE, MINE IS STILL HARD, SCAR TISSUE ON TOP OF THE PORT. WHEN SANDY HAD HERS REMOVED, IT'S STILL HARD BUT SOFTER THEN WHEN THE PORT WAS BEHIND IT

MY SISSY AND I HAVE BOTH USED THEM, THEY ARE WONDERFUL!!! WELL SO ARE THE PEOPLE AT THE OCC ALSO

AWESOME AWESOME AWSOME!!! =D>

RE: To make the band adjustments easier, the company is developing a remote-control system that would allow surgeons to loosen or tighten the devices telemetrically. WOW!!!

I THINK FOR ME THE SIZE THING WAS AN ISSUE ALSO. ONCE I SAW MYSELF "GROWING" OUT OF MY 14 IT WAS LIKE "NOW WHAT THE HELL AM I GOING TO DO" EVERY YEAR GAINING A FEW MORE POUNDS. WHAT WAS I GOING TO LOOK LIKE IN ANOTHER 2 or 3 YEARS? MY DAUGHTER HAD BREAST IMPLANTS DONE IN THE SPRING OF 06. OK.... I THOUGHT WHAT CAN I DO TO IMPROVE "MY" LOOKS, MY HEALTH. LIP-O WASN'T GOING TO KEEP THE WEIGHT OFF IF I GOT IT SUCKED OUT. IT WOULD JUST RETURN AGAIN AS I HADN'T CHANGED ANY HABITS. HOW CAN I MAKE THIS WEIGHT LOSS PERMANANT? A FRIEND HAD LAPBAND SURGERY DONE BY ANOTHER DR IN MX SO MY SEARCH BEGIN AND IN THE SUMMER OF 06 MY LIFE CHANGED MY LITTLE SISSY THEN HAD BREAST REDUCTION DONE IN THE FALL OF 06. LAST SPRING I HAD A TT DONE THIS PAST NOV MY MIDDLE SISSY HAD BAND SURGERY BY DR ORTIZ. THIS HAS BECOME ALMOST LIKE A "NOW WHAT CAN "WE" DO" LOL

THEY'RE STILL PRIVATE KIMMY

YOU HAVE ME IN STITCHES LOL

BINGO!!! THANKS BABYCAKES

MY PREFERENCES HAVE CHANGED AS I SEE THE THREAD TOPIC THEN ALL THE REPLYING POST ARE COLLAPSED NOW WITHOUT LOOKING AROUND AND FIGURING IT OUT FOR MYSELF LOL. SORRY, ANYONE HAVE A QUICK FIX ON WHERE I CAN CHANGE IT BACK TO HAVE ALL THE REPLYING POST NON COLLAPSED? I KNOW IT MUST BE IN MY VIEWS SOMEWHERE THANKS MUCH

LOL I KNOW I KNOW BEEN DOING IT FOR TOO MANY YEARS NOW I'VE MANAGED A BOARD FOR 8 YEARS NOW, THEY JUST ALL KNOW IT'S JUST ME >

I THINK THE PORT STAYS SORE ON AND OFF FOR SOMETIME. BUT IT'S NO BIGGIE, JUST SORE NOT PAINFUL

THE ONLY SCAR YOU CAN SEE NOW IS THE PORT WHICH ISN'T ANY BIG DEAL IT'S SO SMALL

I DRANK A TON OF PEPSI BEFORE SURGERY THEN QUIT FOR A YEAR. I NOW HAVE NO PROBLEMS WITH SODA OR BEER BUT I LIMIT MYSELF ON THE SODA TO MAYBE ONE A WEEK IF I FEEL LIKE IT. I JUST NEVER WANT TO GET THAT HOOKED ON THE STUFF AGAIN.

WOW, THAT'S AWESOME!!! =D>

I DON'T REALLY LIKE ANY DIET DRINKS, ICK LOL BUT I DO HAVE THE SLIM FAST HIGH PROTEIN SHAKES IN THE FRIG WHEN I NEED THAT "PICK ME UP" FAST WHEN I'M ON THE RUN. IT HAS TO BE ICE COLD AND I DRINK IT THRU A STRAW. GOOD LUCK TO YOU

GOOD MORNING I WAS BANDED A YEAR AND A HALF AGO. I'D LIKE TO LOSE JUST A FEW MORE POUNDS BUT EITHER WAY, IT'S ALL GOOD I'D LIKE TO BE ABOUT 132 BUT I HAVEN'T REALLY WORKED AT TAKING THOSE 4 POUNDS OFF YET.

HEHEHEHE HAVE FUN KIMMY AND TAKE PICTURES

WOW, THAT'S AWESOME!!! =D>

I HAD A BASKET IN MY ROOM AT THE OCC AFTER SURGERY, WATER, JELLO AND SOMETHING ELSE BUT I CAN'T REMEMBER

ME EITHER BUT WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS, IT WAS EASY, COPY AND PRINT. FYI, ALONG MY WAY, BOTH TIMES, I ENDED UP WITH ANOTHER PERSON GOING DOWN FOR A FILL, SMALL WORLD

I'VE DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES, IT'S A BREEZE http://www.lapbandforum.com/index.php?showtopic=725

MAKE IT A GREAT TRIP KIMMY!!!

THIS IS VERY NORMAL WAIT THE FULL 6 WEEKS, IT'S A HEALING TIME FOR YOUR BODY

WE HAD A FEW DRINKIE IN THE BAR AND USED THE CC, OTHER THEN THAT I USED CASH FOR SHOPPING
