I love my band!!! I can now walk 3 miles at a brisk pace without wanting to cry or die....LOL. My clothes are too big and I love eating my new low-carb lifestyle! Who would have thought! Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk, SW: 225CW: 201 GW: 130

My motivation is mt BMI, when I go to the dr office I want it to say normal in my chart instead of morbidly obese! Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk, SW: 225CW: 201 GW: 130

I love popcorn and unfortunately it slips right through my band! I could eat it all day! So I have limited myself to only eating it at the theatre when we go once a month! Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk, SW: 225CW: 201 GW: 130

I have found a site, since I do my best to stick to low carb that is great. The recipes are amazing. I have tried at least a dozen and they meet disappoint me! I absolutely love http://peaceloveandlowcarb.blogspot.com/?m=1 Give it a try! Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk, SW: 225CW: 201 GW: 130

I was banded 5/16/12 and am down 33.5 lbs. I have 5cc in a 10cc band. I'm definitely feeling the restriction and even though there are days my band is finicky, I'm loving it! Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk, SW: 225CW: 201 GW: 130

I have officially reached Onederland! I had actually reached it about a week ago but I wanted to make sure the scale wasn't being crazy! I am so excited. Onederland was my one official main goal. Now I have to find a new one to work on. On another note, after my 2nd fill I have learned that bread and rice are no longer my friends. AT ALL! They have decided to cut ties, and they aren't playing around! So my love for bread and rice has taken a turn, and now it's on to finding new food favorites!

Yes I still have port pain, some days it's worse than others. I was really worried and when I went in for my last fill I talked to my dr. He said that I just may be one of those people that always notices my port. With it being sewn to that muscle that working that muscle will make it sore. It has gotten better this past week, until this weekend when my and my sons played a few rounds of Just Dance on the Wii. I woke up Sunday pretty sore. I usually will take extra strength tylenol which helps a ton! No worries i've been in the same boat but it will ease up, and just know that you may always have some soreness. I have a friend that she's been banded for over a year now and she still has some days where she is sore.

Sent you an email, not sure if you got it.

I am from Longview, TX and was just recently banded.
