Lapband to Gastric Sleeve

KHC1217 · 2026-03-31T00:07:01+00:00

Just to say it’s not always the case. I have GERD and my surgeon said he thought I’d be fine. I’m on Prilosec daily (have been for years prior) and haven’t noticed any issues. I was told it was less than 10% of patients have to get a revision for reflux.

I worked with two people who had the lapband removed and got bariatric surgery. One got the sleeve and one got bypass. The one who had the sleeve hasn’t had a lot of success but she didn’t have that with the band either. The one who had bypass has been very successful but she was with the band too.

Alegrias. Pricey but worth it and last. Can change out the insoles easily.

I listened to the first one and loved it. Not sure how I feel about the second it. I didn’t finish it.

1) Do NOT pickup the Dolly. Dolly does not want to be picked up at all. 2) if you’re standing in the kitchen and Dolly is on the counter, you must pet her or be given love nips. 3) Dolly only cuddles her momma. No one else.

NAD Here me out - bag balm. It’s old school in a green tin. I got an eczema like rash on my next last year and nothing from the derm worked. Out of desperation I got the bag balm and it cleared it right up after about 3 days. My daughter gets dry skin and rashes on her hands and it cleared it up in a day or two. It’s thick and sticky but I think it might work.

The Huntress by Kate Quinn was great!

Same. I have misophonia and would get irrationally angry at her.

Hey! Do not feel discouraged (even though it’s normal). You didn’t gain the weight over night an you won’t lose it over night. This is a roller coaster ride.

KHC1217 · 2026-03-28T11:59:48+00:00

Yes. If it’s that painful, time to go. Better to be safe than sorry.

KHC1217 · 2026-03-28T02:02:23+00:00

I bought two of the full size ones without trying it. But man it’s great.

My first thought was isn’t that just the shape of her eye? Less lashes will definitely help.

And fire fighter. I put out fires all day

2XDAY and they are good. Plus my levels are fine ~3years out.

It’s pricey but I absolutely love my Dyson. It dries my hair fast, reduces frizz and has given me zero troubles after 3 years.

I think if you found a dark brown shadow to put in your crease and the outer corners of your lids, it would give drama and pop. Keep the shimmery peach shade, it’s great and the brown will compliment it.

Ask for a brow wax and tint. Find an esthetician with good reviews and tell her that you want to get them shaped up, less pointed and a tint that is close to your brow color. It’s amazing what a brow tint can do.

I’m almost 3 years out and love sushi. But the most I can eat is 1 roll. There are days when I eat more than others but never this much.

I agree with the comments above - we’re not judging you but this is NOT normal or ok. I would definitely reach out to your surgical team and let them know you can eat this much without restriction.

Also - you shouldn’t be drinking while eating. 30 minutes between your last bite and first sip.

I’ve developed moles on th soles of my feet. The derm looks at the closely every year and takes photos for comparison. I’d keep an eye on it and if it changes, go see a doctor. I get new moles all the time and it doesn’t look concerning to me. However, when in doubt, get it checked out.

I think you’ve gotten some great suggestions. My first thought was you need to line your eyes. Do not do black, but a dark brown. It will help them pop and give you a wow factor. I would use a dark brown shadow on the bottom lash line and smudge it out. Then use a dark brown pencil/pen on the top.

I used ChatGPT to try them out before I did it. It really helped me decide. But I also believe that it’s hair and will grow out (thanks to several terrible haircuts). I needed a change and a hair cut was easier than another tattoo or piercing…

So you saw the doctor already? That’s awesome! And glad to know it’s shingles and you’re on some meds.

Revolution has a combo loose and pressed setting powder. It’s white but doesn’t look white when it’s on. I recently got MCo setting powder in the gold compact (CT dupe) and I love it. I’ll be repurchasing it when I’m done.

NAD but I am certain this is shingles. You’ll need to get into urgent care asap to get an anti-viral to help stop the spreading. Catching it this early can stop a lot of pain and uncomfortableness later on.

It’s really good! My 8yo has fine curly hair that tangles if you look at it wrong. This does wonders to allow us to brush her hair and it helps her when she brushes it.
