  4. All these stories, just give me more strength to keep going, and continue my good eating habits... I starter at 22 size and now I am a size18, 44 pounds later, had my surgery done 6 monts ago, and finally on my green zone after my last fill, can't wait to really start loosing my extra weight. You ladies are such an inspiration for me... Thank you..
  5. Good job ladies..
  6. It has happened to me too, it's weird to feel that your stomach is hungry but not your brain. I still don't know how to process that feeling. Just eat a small healthy snack untill your meal time. Make sure you drink lots of water
  7. Thanks everyone for all your comments, I learn something new everyday. Just seeing everyone going through the same things I go through makes me feel that there is a solution for everything. Thanks again...
  8. I have 10 1/4cc on a 14cc band and now i kind of feel am in the greenzone, it took me all this time toget there. I can feel the restriction finally, my doctor was considering removing this band and replacing it for a smaller 10cc band, thank god is working now.. I felt hungry for like the longest time, hang in there, it will get better...
  9. I have 10 1/4cc on my 14cc band and I'm finally filling something, so hopefully I will just need a little more fluid to get me to the green zone and I won't need another surgery to replace my band...

  13. Thank you 2muchfun for sharing the video, I have no problems eating fruits, peaches, strawberries, mangos, I had 1 incident with bananas, it got sock, and I haven't try again since then, but I think it's all about bite size. Enjoy fruits..
  14. Had my surgery 6 months ago, lost 44 pounds so far, last Friday went back to True Results to get a fill, I finally have 10 1/4cc in my band, but still don't feel i'm in the green zone, talking to my doctor about it, she mention that she has seeing a trend on people with 14cc bands having a hard time getting in to the green zone because the band is too big for us. It will take more fluid to take me in to the green zone, i have an appointment next thursday to get an ultrasound to see if they are going to be able to make the band work for me by just putting fr fluids in to it or she is actually considering removing this band and putting a 10cc band on me.. This is depressing for me, I have been working so hard to loose the weight and now come to find out that the band my be replace meaning other surgery again.. Know I'm just thinking if they did it for insurance purpose, if they actually knew this was going to happened and because they know that my insurance has approved every charge, know they're just doing it to get more money from the insurance... Don't know what to do...
  15. Here is my situation, I got my band 6 months ago, and I have been able to loose 44 pounds since then, but it has been so hard for me to loose weight, I think my body has a set weight that it's fighting me to keep, the main reason that I got this surgery is because I want to be healthy and be able to have another baby, talking to my ob/gyn told me that the only way I was going to be able to ovulate normally is by loosing weight, again my progress has been slow and I just don't know what ales to do, I follow all the instructions from my doctors, any suggestions or anyone going through the same situation as me, please advise...
