Small goals first...that sounds like a plan. I have to get back on track. Banded October 11th only down 32lbs. Not the bands fault...its all me. Thanks for you guys replies. Need all the help I can get.

How do you stay motivated? What changed for you after surgery? I need all the help I can get.

Welcome to the family!!!

Good luck...and the excitement will kick in soon. Congrats and again good luck.

I'm doing pretty good. I only have 2.5cc in my band. I was really scared at first to get filled. Now I don't have any restrictions. I lost 27 pounds so far. How are you doing?

I love Dr. Eid...his staff is great also. Good luck in January. Keep us posted on how u are. Is Pittsburgh people need to stick together. Lol

I'm so happy for u. And thanks for the encouragement.

I'm pretty sure:)

I go back Dec 28th...this time I will let them put more in. Keep up the good work.

About 7 weeks and 4days. Still trying to get the hang of it. But I wouldn't change it for the world.

I think everyone should be numbed. But maybe I'm just a big baby. Lol

It wasn't a bad as I thought it would be. They numbed me I didn't feel a thing. I only got .5cc for a total of 2.5cc. Did u have one yet?

Had my first fill today..really scary. I only let them put in .5cc. A total of 2cc...now I wish I would have let them put more. It didn't hurt at all..but I was so scared. My next appt is Dec. 14th. Wish me luck.

After my first appt I had to start a six month class. Every month I got something to read and weighted in. My insurance required it...but each one is different. It really help for me to go to those nutrition classes. It made the transition easier.
