    wifeoffireman2 got a reaction from amponder in What is the rudest thing someone has said to you?!?!   
    I once had a co-worker tell me that I only hired fat people to make myself feel better. I still just shake my head at some people's stupidity.

    wifeoffireman2 got a reaction from meyouus in My Doc Only Gives 1 Cc (Max) Fills Per Month. Same For Everybody?   
    I am apprehensive to ask for more than what he wants to give. After all, he is the doctor, and fills slow to avoid any problems. I am not in a hurry to lose the weight. I like that I have time to re-evaluate foods after a fill to see if I can still tolerate them. My husband had the surgery 2 months before me, and Doc is filling his band just as slow. Neither one of us has vomited or had pB's. And I'm happy about that!!

    wifeoffireman2 got a reaction from Maddysgram in My Doc Only Gives 1 Cc (Max) Fills Per Month. Same For Everybody?   
    My doc (whom I love, by the way) only gives a maximum fill of 1 cc every 4 weeks. I see people on this forum with only 2 fills and they are up to 8 cc's already. I had my fourth fill today, and I'm at 3.5 cc's on a 10 cc band.
    I wondering if anyone knows the advantages/disadvantages of quick fillings or slow and steady fills? I am very happy with the slow and steady approach. We discuss any foods that have given me a problem, weigh loss or gain, and any other questions before the fill. I am glad to say I have not had ANY PB's ever. I got banded 6/27/12.
    Thanks in advance!
