RE: Already Broken

I spoke with Jeremy on Friday and he thinks it's just some fluid that was rising to the top.  I now don't feel anything at the site like I did before.  I only felt it and saw it that one night.   I just wanted to see if anyone else had this happen to them or anything while I was waiting to call them.  I know enough to always call the office.  Thank you.  I just like to know there are others that have gone through something like whatever I might be going through.  Thank you again for all your concern and help.  I do have to say I haven't lost a lot of weight for me to have my port showing it's sleep.  I do have a lot of belly fat, never mind the fat all over.   I did do a lot of walking this weekend that I shouldn't have.  I was paying for it this morning.  I have bad ankles and I always had.  I am hoping with the weight coming off that my ankles won't hurt as much when I walk.  Oh and I am down another pound or so.  And let me tell you, I think my swelling is gone down big time because I am starting to be still hungery after a half a cup of anything I have.  I can't wait to have some blended meat.  Oh and the magic bullet I bought is broken after just one use and I didn't over use it the one time.  Plus I can't find the receipt to return it.  I am so made.  I have a 60 buck useless package of stuff.  Just a total bummer. 

How are my fellow bandsters doing?  Everyone that is newly banded like me feeling good?

"Because we do not know when we will die we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well and yet everything happens only a certain number of times and a very small number really. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, an afternoon that is so deeply a part of your life that you can't even conceive of your life without it. Perhaps four or five times more? Perhaps not even that. How many times will you watch the full moon rise, perhaps twenty, and yet it all seems so limitless."

I'm glad to hear that it's nothing serious! Does your ankles feel brittle like mine in the morning? I get out of bed and I think they are going to snap on the way downstairs. It takes a good 15 minutes before they adjust. If I get the bullet, I will hand over my receipt to you. No Losses. So, where did you buy it? Glad you dropped a couple more pounds!  Wooooo Hoooo!!

Aww you are too sweet.  I got mine at Linen's N Things at Garden City.  I can't believe I lost it.  It was a hectic day with my two year old that day.  I totally thought I put it with my credit card.  Nope!! And of course mine broke the next day after opening it up. LOL

Just hang tight... It'll be a couple of weeks the least before I get it. Don't throw the machine away! LOL

I would bring it there anyway and see what they do. They might be willing to replace it for you.  Does it still have the label with the price on it?  The worse thing that could happen is they say no and turn you away.

I am just going to go buy a new one and return the old one.  I just hate to lug that and my son to the store just to come all the way back home.   So I am going to go back out when my mom comes home so I don't have to take my son and pick one up and then either tomorrow or Friday return the broken one.

OH and about the ankles, they feel like they are going to break only on days when I am on them too long. Or I have done some serious walking the day before.  The next morning sometimes I have to crawl around they hurt so bad.

I've thought about the crawling, but I just refused to do it. Just walk slowly till they adjust. My knees are just as bad going up the stairs. So much weight on them. If I go up on all four, it takes some weight off and it's not so bad. I impacted my knee's three yrs ago taking my new Golden Retriever for a jog.... Down a Hill! A very steep hill! Done physical therapy, worked for a bit, and been suffering since.
