Hi all I will start the4.3 tomorrow wish me luck, I have a question can you drink Water thru the day or not?

Yes we can!!onederland here we come )

Hi all I went to my doctor last week and I ask for a fill but that was a no, no from my doctor he said lets see on december when you comback we will talk about it , he ask me if I have restriction wich I have but I am getting hungry often he said losing 62 pounds in 10 months is great for him and to reduce my calories to 600-800 at day because he do not want to put me on red, I understand him, my knee surgery keep me out from exercising only bike three times at week and those 3 pounds to get to my 200 are getting harder, hopefully by the end of October I will get rid of those 3 pounds and meet onerland!!!

Thanks a lo CG you inspire me so much when I start in the lapband forum last May you are a success story.

Yesturday was my 10 months post op, so far I am happy with my results , I am 3 pounds to be 200 it has been hard for me after a fall back on february that ended on a knee surgery 4 weeks ago , I was unable to do exersice after my accident but I was following my doctor food list must of the time some days i cheat but not many , last year at this time I was 265, my life has change and after been a size 20,22 now I wear 12,14 depend of the brand, thanks everybody I learn a lot from all of you!!

Congratulations chasing!!!you look great and happy.

Thanks B12 I really needed those words to realize that I am eating things that I am not suppouse to , since las year I am reading yours post they are to point and real, no that I am not doing good because I loose 60 pounds in 9 months Without doing any exersice due to a knee surgey 3 weeks ago but I just realize I need to go back to basics, thanks.

Nice job, congratulations!!!

Hi Jenn That post just made me upset , what kind of people are you working with, It is wrong in all aspects the way they are treating you , the advise I will give you is to eat in a very small portiions and chew very well you should not have a issue if you do this or you are to tight and need a unfill, try to finish you lunch 5 minutes before you have to comback to work to give you chance to digest you food , drink planty of Water thru the day, so sorry this is happening to you.

Hi Crystal I understand your concern, I feel the same but I made the decision to tell my coworkers and I do not regreted yet , all my coworkers are very suported with me and always are telling me how great I look and some of them wants to do the surgery, it made me laught some times they already know what i will order for lunch and just ask me for the money, somedays they tell me that clothes is to big for you and that I need to buy new sizes it is very important to have that support that give you the energy to keep going , my surgery was on november 5 ,2013 and I haved lost 60 pounds so far without doing any exercise due to a fall on february and a meniscus surgery two weeks ago but still following my doctors instructions regarding food and Water intake, good luck to you it is not easy but it can be done,

Happy birthday Gowalking !

Weird!!!

1453+55 =1508

My doctor recomended two weeks,for me it was the best decision, one week post op I was still swelling good luck in you surgery day.

B52 Love you post!!!! it is so thru what you said a few months back I saw a picture of CG with the amount of food in a folk (very little) and I though she was exagerating that amount but she was so right !!!

Hi ready I was feeling the same with my band , i have my first fill in may and I was feeling fine until a few days ago my morning coffe was not going dawn and I have difficulties when eating and I was getting stock a lot , I called my doctor and he said it is normal that my band is tight in the morning , he said most people start eating at noon , now I really learn how to eat an I am really chewing my food very small pieces and take my time to finish my food ,now I know my band is there and I am understanding better how it work good luck .

Congratulations my friend !!!!!!:-) so happy for you!!!!

Shoulder pain in my case was gas pain,I use the hot pads , it last me almost a week, good luck and congratulations!!

Nice!!!
