  1. Hi all. I was banded 12/6 and have lost about 13 lbs total. I went for my first fill. How did you all feel afterwards ?

  18. I am so sorry that you are having such a trying time. It's unfortunate that the ones we love the most hurt us the most sometimes! You can do this, you WILL do this! We are here for you!!! Hugs!!

  21. I would have to agree with Chez... I honestly don't think you will feel like it. And you will most likely realize this at that time, but just take care of yourself!!
  22. Yahoooo let the journey begin! Congrats!
  23. Best of luck to you!!! You will be fine!!
  24. I'm so excited!!!
  25. That's kind of what I was thinking. That with RnY weight loss is almost guaranteed... With band it's mostly the patient that controls the weight loss. I proceeded with great confidence that I will be successful.
