Thanks so much!

Hey Bandsters, Heard that you can actually write off medical expenses and just wondered if any of you have been able to do so? Getting ready to file and any feedback would be helpful....I was self pay! Thanks

Thanks everybody, I'm trying, just gotta get off my ass and get to the gym more often!

Do you know what today is, it's my bandiversary, bandiversary! One month and 19lbs down, a lifetime to go!

I love, love,love the Michael Jackson experience game...talk about a workout!

Hahaha, you guys are hilarious, thanks for the responses!

Ok, My poor husband is about to die!!!! Thanks

HEY GUYS, HOW LONG AFTER SURGERY DID YOU WAIT TO HAVE SEX?! DOES IT EVEN MATTER OR NO?

Hey guys, Just read over the responses.....and no my cousin has no problem with eating, she eats like a horse now, she doesn't have any liquid in her band now. She has only had 3 or 4 fills, she was 257 at the time of surgery and now weighs 150. There is no hanging skin or any of that stuff, but she is getting a tummy tuck, because she said she had hanging skin just in her stomach area from her pregnancy. @Cleo's mom what specifically would you like to know, I'll ask her sometimes this week?

Wooo,woo,woo, guys sorry I meant October 09, so she is like a year and three months out!

Hey guys, Just wondering if anyone knows the answer to this or not.... But yesterday, I saw my cousin, whom I hadn't seen in a while, like some months. She was banded in October last year and has lost over 100 lbs and she looks terrible. Her body looks puny and starved, as opposed to healthy and just toned or slim. I was so shocked to see her!!! So, my question is, can you tell the doctor when you would like to stop losing, or do they decide according to BMI or something, cause I really don't want to look that small?

Congrats!!! I used to feel a nagging pain in my lower back when I walked or jogged and I walked for the second time yesterday, without feeling a thing!

Hey girl, I too had a hiatal hernia, apparently so did damn near everyone else in the hospital, cause I swear I heard the DR. tell everyone's relative that he had to repair one! I'm such a skeptic, I think it's just a way to milk the insurance companies!

Yeah, my Dr. also said not to worry about getting the full 64 oz in the first couple of days b/c you will be so swollen!

According to my diet, week 2 thicker liquids is the same as purees, is that not the same for others? Week 3 is soft foods/ mushies?
