It happen, I got sick today

OUCH!!!! Back up and go slow. Treat your pouch like the baby it is. Wonder if it was butter. Tried shrimp and chewed til my mouth hurt. so sorry girl Gail

Hi arlies, hey I was ready to put apb out on you! I know one lady that had the ear staple, don't know any results tho. I wouldn't do it if I never lost weight. Speaking of, I'm down 18 lbs today, I should be getting more exercise, but my blame innards gets to hurting after walking a ways. How have you been doing? You hear of Dr. Salameh's baby boy? I know you did. Glad you are back on board, everyone seems to have left the building.

Hey Queen A, It's the hot topic on the news this week. Guess what? I chickened out but my friend did it and says she lost 13 pounds so far. This was from a person who put a big ad in the local paper and rented space at a hotel. :nono: I saved my money for a new hair cut and went to Disney World. I am going to stick with what I have been doing thus far, I've lost 43 since May (can't get to 50 for nothing) and I'm still trying hard since it looks like I will remain a non-op. Have a good day.

I heard that on the news this am wonder where all 14 are that they closed I ahve heard good and bad about it so we will see if they reopen or not. Glad ya back with us Arlies. Barry

I read that and I have 3 or 4 people at work that have had that done. One girl has lost maybe 6 pounds and one girl said it just was not for her. One girl got her 13 year old daughter ear stapled. This is really scarey. I wish them luck but I would be real leary about getting it done by these fly by night people. There can be sever consiquinces. steph

My sister had this done two weeks ago she said she hasn't noticed any changes as of yet ..........Hugggs.......Sherry

About 15 years ago, this was popular , but it did not go anywhere then either. They say that it is the suggestion which makes you cut down on food. If you are a super-absorber, which my doc says a lot of obese folks are, then it will make no difference at all! I would have had anything pierced if it helped me, but definately the RNY was the best move I made, only wish that I had done it several years ago, but then could have had more complications too....... Weight loss schemes are billion dollar industries for people and thus so many things out on the market, wonder why they look down on surgery, which seems to be the only guarenteed way to get the weight off....Go figure that! Love, Cheryl

I have had some who say they can tell they dont want to eat but then I have some that say they still want to eat and I have some that say I dont want to eat cause it hurts so bad -- so I dunno...

All Fish makes me sick..... Chicken makes me sick........So you're not alone........Hope you feel better soon....Sandi

Good Morning Everyone, Yes Sandi I am the same way chicken, fish and most meat forget it....... I go into horrible vomitting episodes. I am still on a very limited eating pattern. I try new things cautiously. Pray for a friend of mine that is not doing so well he just found out recently that he has a ulcer that has caused him issues on his staple line of his new pouch which has let food go into his old. I saw him last night and he seems to be alittle down about the slowing of his weightloss from this issue. I pray that God give him strength to get through this and to continue on his success he was having. Looks like rain later, I will be doing things around the house today. A wowwwww moment I cleaned out my closet and got rid of 5 bags of clothes. I saved some of them to donate to the walk for obesity in the fall. I wish everyone well Hugs Charla
