  1. From my experience, yes.
  2. This is going to be the best week EVER!!!
  3. I love my treadmill!!
  4. Welcome! The band has absolutely helped me get my life back! I'm off disease medications, labs are completely normal and I feel better than ever! It's the best gift I've ever given myself. Best wishes to you!
  5. I took off 10 days and that was plenty for me.
  6. I got a prescription from my doctor for Topamax which makes soda taste terrible and also helps with headaches. Took it for 2 weeks and it worked like a charm and I've never gone back.
  7. Congrats to you both! What a wonderful way to share this journey together.
  8. I can eat them just fine.
  9. That just gave me goose bumps! So happy for you!
  10. So happy for you J!
  11. Me too friend.
  12. Congrats on your surgery! You will learn that your stomach will make all kinds of noises from gurgling to growling, which seems to be perfectly normal I think. Best wishes to you!
  13. Congrats on your great loss! Sounds like you're on the right track!
  14. Less invasive, adjustable, removable and being self-pay, less expensive. It was the right choice for me.
  15. I'm proud of you too!! Way to go!
  16. I can eat crackers just fine. I don't eat bread though, just my personal choice.
  17. I've gotten anywhere between .25cc to 3cc.
  18. I think I am a slow loser too, BUT a slow loser is better than no loser. You have to stop comparing your progress to others (which is hard, I know). Count your calories, exercise and stay focused. YOU GOT THIS!
  19. I don't have a choice at my place of employment, but if I did I would still get one.
  20. Yes, it takes a few days or maybe even a few weeks for the fill to settle down for me. In the mean time, I just have to baby my band.
