pretty, I can't find the thread, but someone will. There is a lovely girl here called mummas_boy_jett. She is pregnant at the moment (surely she hasn't had the baby yet, time flies). She would be a good person to talk to. I know that she has a blog site.... someone here will give you the details for sure.

Hi Pretty,
How exciting for you! I can't comment on the whole baby and the band thing but just watned to say that you can eat a fair bit of food at the moment. How is your restriction? Have you had many fills? I can't eat rice and can only eat cold chicken that is almost shaved! If you have lost 70 kilos without much restriction that is amazing!!
There are plenty of threads here about pregnancy and the band I will try and bump dsome forward for you.
I wich you all the best!

Re:General Chat #4 Reply to this message
Hi Everyone. I was wondering if I was to fall pregnant, how would I go with the morning sickness (vomiting - smile) with the lap band. I have been banded for 2 1/2 years and we are now going through IVF hoping that some miracle can happen. I have lost a total of 70 kgs but the past 4 months I have been struggling with the diet and really finding that I can eat just about anything and it quite big portions. I spoke to my dr. and I had the scan thing and they said nothing looked out of place yet I can eat a whole chicken breast and salad and rice and still not get that damn full feeling.. All of a sudden i'm not so worried about the band and less conscious but it concerns me because it's so easy to slip back into the old ways.. Have others who have been banded for over 2 years find that they can slip back into old habits pretty quickly?

Re:General Chat #4 Reply to this message
Hi Everyone.

Yes I do know Mary via the other chat site I was a member of, just wanted to point out I do not have a chronic illness though. My brother was suffering from one and that is why I was a member of the group. Don't want you all thinking I am sick when I'm not!!

Mary offered some great informaiton and I have thanked her very much for it.

Can anyone bump Dr Bennett's thread for me? It must be way back as I have just combed pages and can't find it. I would like to compare the quote they gave me with what others have paid to see him.

Thanks so much,
Madonna

Sharon and Mary

Sharon this is spooky, I have Restless Legs too are you sure you're not my long lost twin sister? I used to run a Restless Legs Support group on the Gold Coast, we'd meet up every month but I ended up giving it away after a year because no matter what I tried including Mangoes didn't help with my Restless Legs. Everyone has something that seemed to help them but when others tried the same remedies it wouldn't work for them.

It's like my brother who has Rheumatoid Arthritis, after trying so many medications that didn't help with the pain he researched natural therapies and now he has a teaspoon of Apple Cider Vinegar in a glass of water every morning and has stopped all his medications. Within one week he found relief, that was last year and ever since he's been drinking the Apple Cider Vinegar.

As a result my sister who also has Rheumaotid Arthritis drank the Apple Cider Vinegar for only a week and the effects were so debilitating the pain was worse when she was on the Apple Cider Vingegar, it too her 6 months to get over it. I'm going to give it a try and see if it works for me or not but it's like everything, some things works for others and some don't.

When ever I sit down I either sit in a recliner with the back of my knees on top of a pillow or I sit up on a lounge with my knees on top of a pillow. I still get occasional bouts of Restless Legs but not everyday like I used to, these days maybe once or twice a month, I find the pillows help for me.

Mary let us know how you go with the Mangoes please.

Mary and Madonna

Madonna, Mary and I have the same surgeon and you know who my surgeon is.

Do you realise that you two know each other from the WLS and Chronic Illness Group, I could be wrong but it seems to me that both of you haven't clicked who each other are.

Mary the price you have quoted has increased since you were banded. Fiona got a quote from all three surgeons on the Gold Coast and ended up being done this week by Dr Greenslade in Brisbane because he was cheaper although Fiona isn't on a Disability Support Pension. That's how I found out Mary that our surgeon is no longer the cheapest on the Gold Coast, Fiona sent me quotes for all three.

Hey Bridie...I am looking for it too...there are about three so if you want a chat just sift through the pages and you should catch one.

It's usually just me sometimes on the others...hehe

I just talk to myself. Waiting, wondering...if there are any other lapbander that want to talk... lol oh and that too.

goodnight everyone...pleasant dreams.

Re:General Chat #4 Reply to this message
hey tam...good luck.

My machine is a nuisance ...but I persist with it every night 'cause without it...i sure am tired the next day.

I can't see why he wouldn't give you the band first.

My surgeon often goes with what I want or feel is the best thing for me. for example today he wasn't going to put any more fill in. I couldn't believe my ears.

I had just finished telling him that I had been putting on weight and eating faster than anyone else at the table. so he relented and put in half a mil. I was OK with that...came home ate two helpings of my dinner. Then had mango rockmelon and icecream. Then had bread and butter pudding..then I had some more..then some more after that.

So I am glad he listened to me...hope yours does too.

Sharon
