  5. I tell ya some folks have been praying for me... I didn't start immediately but in January I just stopped cold. Thanks for the support
  6. Thank you, glad to meet a patient of the doctor.
  7. Well today I attempted to transfer to another doctor in Jackson. She refused to accept me because she is also apart of the same center but has another practice. I found another doctor in Hattiesburg, MS; roughly an 1.5 hour south of me. It will cost me more but I need a doctor to monitor me.
  8. My Aunt Flo showed up this morning and I politely went to McDonalds for a caramel mocha. I needed it broke the constipation too.
  9. I was banded April 11, 2012. I received an approval notice from Tricare Prime on March 17, 2012, my 38th birthday. Around August I start receiving cars from the doctor office and hospital reverifying my insurance information such as ID numbers. In September I was told as well as received letter stating my insurance company made an error. They were now reversing the charges. A whopping 47K with a 6K discount. Wtf/Wth. I don't have this kind of money. Therefore at the end of October I declared bankrupt. Now my doctor refuses to see me. Omg
  10. This is a major hinderance for me...I am so guilty. Most of the times I drink a soda so I can burp and to relieve pressure. I am officially giving it up. I think it does a lot to my stomach and plateau my weight loss. Please keep me lifted in prayer that I lose the taste for sodas yet find a better way to burp.
  11. Mine is always related to eating too fast. I think sometimes I wait to long to eat then wish to rush it down like a pig..
  12. I had surgery April 11, 2012. Initially, I scheduled off that Wednesday with intents of returning to work at 1:00 pm that Friday. I was feeling great but my boss decided to throw in the day for me. I returned to work that Monday and began working out that same day..
  13. Well, this past Thursday was my third full. And it hurts me each time, for one my stomach isn't fatty at All say least that's what the doctor say. Then he has a hard time getting the needle in the port however this time he made note of the measurement and location of port. I wish he used something to numb me. I received .5 cc and know this will cause me to lose more weight. Kinda scare that I will be sick cause I'm full off everything.
  14. I will sip only to relieve myself. Such as needing to burp
  15. I was banded April 11, 2012; however, I can not eat chicken of any kind, Krispy Kreme donuts, and hibachi.
  16. Keep in my mind, it's a lifestyle change. I was banded 4/11/12; first fill was 5/22/12; and second fill 07/12/12. Between the first and second, I lost only 3 pounds; Please dont be discourage. I am eating right, working out, and following all of the rules (well most of them). Remember fat turns to muscle. I can even run the track now. :wub:
  17. Today my doctor told me I had an average standard band.
  18. I received my first fill today. I received 1 cc. But im feeling full already.
  19. I truly understand everyone situation but I'm definitely taking advantage that I can't use a straw meaning I might accidentally swallow. Lol
  20. I made It out tonight with boyfriend and believe it or not I don't care if I ever eat out again..
  21. Plenty of walking to release the air... However I was not hungry or thirsty.
