That's just a crappy thing for them to say....I'm so proud of you GC for all you've accomplished and for not slapping them...

I weigh half of what I used to weigh..from 286 to 143 in the last 10 months...I feel amazing! Thank you to all the people here that have supported me and cheered me on....13 lbs to go until I reach my goal then I will need to figure out how to maintain for the rest of my life...any tips from maintainers greatly appreciated!! Will definitely get some before and after pics up soon. Keep plugging away guys, you are all so worth it

I love Dr Soong!! I'm a Military wife and mother of 4 also

Congrats!!!

They do Nicole, I have never been to one but I know they have them

Hi Nicole! I live in the North East part, close to Losee and the 215! We go to the same weight loss surgery clinic

I live in North Las Vegas too!

Happy Birthday!! Congrats too!! and a little cake and ice cream is okay once a year

I completely agree with Missy ~ while the band can help control how much you eat, it cannot control head hunger and binge issues. I wish you well in what ever you decide, Best Wishes

OMG ~ insurance companies are so ridiculous..Wishing and hoping that you all get approved, my heart goes out to you all....Best Wishes

What CG said! If it's true love, size doesn't matter.... Best Wishes

I've had bread a few times since being banded and I didn't scarf down the whole loaf, it's about moderation and self control, you had both. It was perfectly okay to eat and sounded delish!

I think you look fabulous, have fun!

Congrats!! You're doing amazing!!

Great news Kimmy!!

I eat salad almost daily and have never had a problem, but I I do only have 3 cc's in my band, I'd be devastated if I couldn't, I love salad!

Love it!! Awesome NSV!!

In the beginning liquids are the only way to get your nutrition and protein in, so you have to have liquids with protein, your newly sewn stomach can not tolerate solid food....when the mushy stage starts, the soups with protein won't be necessary and then the 30 minute rule will apply! Best Wishes

Love me some peach iced tea....I drink the diet Snapple one

Congratulations!! It feels fabulous doesn't it....Great job!

Thank you so much! You only have 25 more lbs to go, that's awesome, you got this! Best Wishes

I may be predisposed, but I am responsible for making myself fat by not eating right and not exercising...

You look amazing!!

Yes, I gained 6 lbs the day after surgery, it's gas and fluids that you received during surgery, it will be gone soon....Best Wishes

Go easy on yourself, to err is human....tomorrow is a new day. You can do this! Best Wishes
