  4. Can anyone fill me in on this app? It seems so popular.
  5. I am looking for the best cardio workout DVD for the Wii. I thought about joining a gym with a trainer to help me tone up but, it is very expensive and I want to make sure I have full commitment by working out at home first before shelling out that kind of money. I would like to tone my arms and abdominal area. I have lost almost 70lbs since being banded in June 2012 and I have barely worked out. I think my weight loss is slowing down and I want to kick start it back up, plus toning up couldn't hurt either . I have heard about Bob Harpers DVDs and also so Zumba ones are fun too. What does everyone think? All suggestions are welcomed!
  6. Great job!!! I definitely want to do this in my near future!!!!
  7. Oh just saw your post date lol ... You have surgery THIS friday!!! How are you feeling??? Nervous? Excited? Anxious?
  8. So sorry it took so long to get back to you, it never came up on my notification feed. I am 25 years old, and I am 5'7. How did the surgery go?
  9. Welcome! I am 25 and had the band done last June! Best decision of my life!
  10. I have read that if you go on liquids for a little while like maybe a few days-weeks it can reverse a minor slip if any. I do not have any personal experience with this but it is just a positive thought. I also think that your doctor sounds terrible and I would try to find a new one ASAP. I am a nurse and that is just not okay... at all. He did the surgery, if he hates lap bands then don't do them. It is not your fault at all. Just try to relax and de-stress. If it has definitely slipped, which it may not have, go somewhere else that will actually do their job and take care of you and your health. Best of luck!
  11. I have experienced that in the beginning, but I do feel a difference in my hair almost like the texture is a bit different. I have also experienced hair loss, which i read up that thats normal the first year. So maybe the thinning is making my hair better? LOL who knew
  12. I just starting working out and I was just shopping around for the best sneakers. I have acics but my I need more support from the treadmill shock. I will look into some of those brands! Thanks all!

  14. Hey christinaAshley! I know this is a late post but I am too looking for a band buddy! I'm also on LI.
  15. Amy it will def be worth it! And what your feeling is normal. I was so scared in the beginning to eat and after a fill I get a little anxious too but I think it's all part of the process. I just mentally prepare for the fill before my appt so that way It won't be so bad. Everyone I have spoken too on here is awesome so you will have plenty of support from here!
  16. Sounds delicious!!! Thank you!
  17. Hello all, I was wondering if anyone had any good recipes for dip or appetizers for Superbowl. Thanks!
  18. Congrats on getting a date! it's very exciting! Jitters are totally normal just try to re-enforce the reasons for making the choice to have the surgery. It will all be worth it!!! I had my surgery June 2012 and it was the best choice I ever made. I tried to chicken out a week before and I found support in friends that help me with my anxiety. Keep me post! I'm from Long Island btw :-). Dana
