How's everybody doing? I'm revisiting the Boards for some added inspiration.

It is nice to read up on everyone's progress. I have not really been on here much since the change over. For me, things are very very slow but steady and I'm happy with that. 41 since 6/25. Happy to read all the good news and real challenges, what a blessed journey.

Hi Junesters, I'm down 35 lbs since June 25th. It's been a slow go, but a great run with no regrets. Any issues have been user error and this has been a true blessing. I'm glad to see how well all of you are doing.

Congrats everyone on your excellent progress. U had my surgery on 6/25 and one full a week ago. I've lost 28 lbs. I did get sick on two occasions and for the same reason, eating too quickly and not being mindful. The band has been an incredible tool.

I had mine on 6/25 with a fill today. It didnt hurt at all and no numbing required. Back to my shies for a day it so. 25 lbs gone. Good luck and don't worry.

...sure hoping to hear some positive news from the original poster. Thoughts are with you.

Sorry I am just getting to this and thanks for Asking. I'm feeling great. I'm on regular good now as of Monday, and I've lost 23lbs total. So far so good. How about you?

Just checking in here to see how everyone is doing. I've been moved to regular food now. I've lost 23 lbs total and do far so good.

Hi, I was also banded on the 25th. 29 pounds is incredible. I'm sorry you are hungry. I imagine your first full will be soon and also that you are getting enough protein and not mixing liquid with food?

I like all the advice you've gotten. Here's one add, can you find substitutes for what you love so you can avoid McDs for a while? There are so many types of diet tea beverages. How about one habit at a time and pledge to avoid the Golden Arches this week.

Bronx, have you tried creative pillow alignment to find a more comfy sleeping spot? It really helps.

Just want to share that last night, with pillow support, I was able to sleep in bed versus the recliner. This meant for not only better rest, but shift in gas pockets. Feeling better this morning. I hope all of you wake up to a string, healthy, smart day filled with sunshine, grace, the gain if Liss, and slow sips of water ???›

Thank you I've now heard 2 sips every 15 minutes or every TV commercial break but more won't hurt since we are talking true clear liquid. Will stay on the less is more side but with increased confidence, which I deeply appreciate.

Dear Suzanne, that helps a lot. My Dic talked about remembering a sip or two of water at each commercial break, which is essentially the same. Thank you for your reply. I actually slept in bed last night versus the recliner. Again, progress ???¸

Hi folks, banded this past Tuesday the 25th of June and living this board. Looking forward to chatting with you.
