Only Thing I hate about my lapband warning TMI

because are intake is lower and not as much fiber, lapband patients tend to have constipation. I hate this part of being banded. I will feel really good for 4 or 5 days and then oh no my tummy kills me. Yesterday I spent the better part of my day in the bathroom or laying on the bed with a heating pad on tummy I was doubled over with pain.

NOTE: dont forget to take stool softeners daily to keep this from happening.

Another satisfied individual

As I go on this journey I have committed myself to helping others get approved or fight appeals for weight loss surgery. I had an individual who was denied by Tri-care the active military insurance for servemen and their families. She was denied and I helped her write an appeal several weeks ago here is her message to me

" I want to thank you so much for all you have done for , if not for your letter I really don't think I would have been approved. You have been a blessing to me and I thank you from the bottom of my heart."

So if anyone needs my assistance do not hesitate to call on me

Ok the journey continues

I am experiencing a little nausea today and not sure if its lapband related or not. I really haven't had any major pb'ing or etc. I know I ate things yesterday I should not have done, like a cupcake and ice cream but oh well, fell off the wagon, pick myself back up and get on the band wagon again

Have a good week everyone

Happy 4th of July

Today has been an eventful day for my family. We had our picnic, attended the George Clinton Concert and now I am tired. But I enjoyed my family, did not eat unhealthy food and me and my band did fine.

Here I am with 2 of my wonderful grandchildren that I love with all my heart.
