  6. Happy -- Birthday olivepickles!

  7. I did TR Austin Aug 2011 I am down 93 pounds. Best thing I ever did. The staff is awesome. I had a great experience I was self pay so it was a super quick process.
  8. I did true results in Austin August 2011. I am down 90 pounds. I know true results has a support group that meets once a month. I have had a great experience with True Results. Good luck on your surgery

    Cold Weather

    So my doctor would not fill me any more thinking I was in the green zone a few months ago. I could eat anything as long as chewed well no breads but everything else. So I live in Texas and last week the weather has become colder. Now my band is tight new food are giving me problems but I eat slower and chew more I am fine. This seems crazy does anyone else have this issues? I just don't think I can get so tight from cold weather maybe I am missing a sign from the band.

    Hello Carrie! true results did my surgery aug 2011 I live south of Austin. I am very happy with my results after a year down 91 pounds. I too had no weight related issues but i know it was coming the longer i kept the weight on. I was self pay too. You will do great the hardest time is the time after surgery and before you start getting fills. Let me know if you want a band buddy.

    Can Anyone Give Me An Example?

    i have had my band for over a year and do 1300 calories a day now. I work out almost everyday number seems to work for me now. As i lose weight i reduce my calories. i use my fitness pal to track everything. i think anything under 1000 you are going to struggle if you are working out. 800 seems really low to me

    dr esquivel is who i had. the bad thing with true results is you never see the doctor after surgery the staff is awesome and super helpful. i am very happy where i am now but it is work i track everything i eat and work out 4 days a week.
  15. As i have lost weight i am realizing my relationship with my spouse is not working. I guess when you focus on yourself for once you really start understanding what you need and want. i want someone to be romantic with i understand what you are going thru. We are currently working on our relationship. I too turn to comfort food when i at home and not wanting to deal with my husband or when i am feeling lonely.
