  1. Hey Confused, looks like we are kinda on the same wagon...are you getting your Protein in? I stopped losing exactly 1yr after surgery but I stopped counting protein and stopped buying my Liquid Protein cause of the cost but I just reordered and now I'm ready to get back on the wagon. I have played back and forth with about 10lbs since then but I want to get to my goal and I'm thinking about a tummy tuck.
  2. Hello to all Jan 07 Bandsters. It has been a long time since I have posted. Hope everyone is still doing great! I have been slacking on my protein so I just ordered some liquid Whey and have joined Snap fitness so I hope I can get on a roll and lose the last 20-25lbs I want to lose.
  3. I had a leak but they fixed it with "Fix-a-flat". So far so good, its been over a year.
  4. Sounds like a good idea! I have the same problem, I never know when it will stay down.
  5. Hello everyone, I haven't been on here in a long time. I have pretty much stayed the same weight since I have came on last. I'm going see the diatician tomorrow to try and start losing the rest of my 15-20lbs I wanted to lose. I just want to be a size 10...lol! I'm at 12 now but really want to be a 10! Hope everyone is doing great.:thumbup:
  6. I would like to know the same thing about the insurance. I'm 2 years post-op and I'm leaking from my last un-fill. I went yesterday to get a fill and I was empty...I should of had 2.6cc and I didn't have anything. So they used the "thicker stuff". I just don't understand!
  7. I need a kick in the butt to get back on track. I have about 15-20 lbs to go and just can't get it off.
  8. I went to the Doc for a fill Wednesdaym and all I had in my band was like .2 when I should have had like 2.4. They seem to think I may have a leak. I had went two weeks before this to have an unfill and noticed I could eat anything after the slight unfill. This time I have 2.6 in my 4cc band and I don't have a whole lot of restriction at all or if any. I have to go back in 4 weeks to have my fluid checked. Please let me know what they find out about your band.
  9. How is everyone doing? I havn't lost anything since Feb. I'm still about 15 lbs from goal.
  10. Hi everyone, its been a while! I havn't lost anything since Feb, I think I need to get back on the liquid protein. I hope everyone is doing great. I'm still about 15lbs from goal.
  11. I think there is a set point we get to, I have not lost anything since Feb nor gainned. I'm about 13 lbs from goal. I dont't think I need a fill because sometimes during the month I'm really tight that I have my little PB spells. I would love to be at goal but I'm still happy where I'm at. I'm sure if ever I was to have PS, I would be at goal then.
  12. I think it will be a whole 2 years for me too! I had an unfill of .5 but no more weight loss. I have been stable. So can't complain...lol. I just need to get moving...lol and stay eating out of my little salad plate.
