  1. Don't be scared... your band will not break because you drink. I agree with the advise trish gave you. Sip and wait. You'll see it will be fine.
  2. Keep up the great work... btw you will plateau and loose and plateau and loose. It seems to be the pattern.
  3. Hey I haven't had a fill in so long that I can't remember what the Dr. said. It has been since September. LOL Hey but I will go with what Tricia says since we have the same Dr. Hey Tricia are you going to Dallas on the 21st of May? Heck it was August...LOL I can't even remember the date.

  16. When I found my x was married and we were ingaged I found out where he lived and picked up his wife and brought her to our "home" so there would be no more lies... (very dangerous btw) wouldn't have changed a thing though... the wife and I are still email buddies she left him no long after.
  17. well you all are lucky I keloided on my scars...but I would do it again in a minute...I will even wear a bikini when I am down to bikini size!
  18. I am not quite back to normal resrtiction but I did not get the stick and drop until I needed a fill. I got the stick and I was not going to eat another thing... Now it's stick drop and I could gorge myself it I wanted to.
  19. I am going in Sept...I think it is even my bowling weekend!...What month can I be in...?
  20. Well then looks like there is room for me...maybe????
  21. Hey Great it sounds as if a lot of us are having the same problem I will call my Dr also...
  22. Penni I love December!
  23. HEY I am definatly in let me know...pm me or whatever!
  24. Hey everyone...Just a little currious. I am in need of a fill but the band is weird. I have to still eat slowly or I get that horrible pain, but after a few minutes it seems to just drop through and it seems like I could eat the world. I have to force myself to stop? Is this common when you need a fill? I am trying to hold out until May to see my Dr. but I don't know if I am going to make it. I am so paranoid about this not working. I actually still try on things before I iron them just incase they are too tight. My husband thinks I am nuts because he says I keep shrinking... but I have failed so many times before I am scared. I have all of these what ifs... What if I lost restriction because I was sick... what if it's band erosion, what if I have a leak, what if ... I know I am paranoid. But I just want to finally get to the "after pictures" that I have seen in the magazines. I want to succeed this time. Not just get half way and give up because it is good enough. Well it's late and I am rambling so I am going to end this here.
  25. Vera good luck I hope all goes well!
