    Nice to see this thread moving again!! I live out in Spanish Springs also. WBI has been really great for me too. Been working wth them for about a year now. Laurie has been doing my fills also, I kinda skipped my last appt. so I need to reschedual. Not really needing a fill, but I should go in. Not doing to bad with the weight. It is slow coming off but none is going back on either. It is really dependent on my activity level. If I get out and move I drop pounds, if I just work and not much else, it kind of hovers. I am down a tick over 60 pounds right now with a 12 day hunting trip starting in 2 days. I am hoping to come back at least 10 more pounds down after walking and hiking 5-10 miles a day!!! If you don't see me for a time now, it is because I will be living in a tent is sub freezing temps for a couple of weeks:) For some reason us guys call this stuff fun hahaha!!! Chris

    sounds like fun!! we have not ridden alot this year. It has just been too dry and I have been scared of the fire danger. My brother is a fireman with Sierra fire and the stories he has told me from this summer will curl your toes!! Chris

    well guys, I am doing great. I have gone back on the downward swing since my fill on Tues. Down about 6 pounds and feeling like I can do this again. I don't feel too different, but I am pushing my food away now when I get that feeling instead of saying, " I only have 3 bites left, I will just finish it"!!!! Keep it up all Chris

    Fill went good. I have lost about 3 pounds this week from the fill. Eating is changing some so it looks like we are close. They only put in 1/2 cc and I complained some. I am glad they went as slow as they did now. Pam, how is it going Chris

    That is exactally what I have going on right now. Not any gain, but not any loss either. I am working all weekend. 2 days of OT and one day of tripple time!!! Can't pass any of that up:) I don't like going anywhere this weekend Chris

    Alicia, you will never get used to the shakes:( But you need to drink them. Make sure you drink LOTS of broth it helps!! The 10% is an old rule and not really valid anymore. They just want you to stay on the liquid program to show you can stick with it. Don't cheat! you will really like the progress you make. The thing that I liked was Broccoli at dinner time. Chris

    If I push down I can feel it, but otherwise I never notice it. I have been walking my son from school 3 times a wwe the last few weeks now. Bout a mile and a half up and back. We just went out today and cleaned out the swimming pool to get it ready for the year. My plan is to swim every night once it gets warm enough. My weight is still bouncing around. up 2 or 3 one day, back down to where it belongs the next. Just can't get past this plateaue Chris
