  1. You look great! I love my band too. I'm at 7.8 cc and that's my sweet spot. Losing pretty good as well. Banded July 1, 2013 and down 36 pounds. Keep up the awesome work!!
  2. This is great! I am excited about reaching my first goal of 185. Keep up the good work, you're motivating a lot of us!!
  3. Thank you. I can't wait! It gets more rewarding when you can actually see your results!
  4. Really excited about this most recent fill. Lots of restriction and control. I think will have a lot more weight loss now. I will make it to 185 in no time. This would be my first goal then that final goal will be 165!!! Woohoo!
  5. Banded July 1, 2013...down 36 pounds. From 238 to 202.
  6. Yes that's what it is...it's not a strain it just comes up with ease. Thank you. I did call my doctor and have my first fill 22nd he thinks I need smaller bits and thinned out a little more and not to try any solids til he see me and 24-48 hours after that first fill.
  7. What's PB? Because it really don't seem like vomit it comes up really easy just won't go down.
  8. Hey all, I am having lots of restriction as if I have a fill. Can't get too much down and vomiting every other day or so. I don't get my first fill till 22nd. Could this still be from swelling? Why am I having this huge restriction? Is something wrong?
  9. Well I won't!! I tend to stay on...even after I get to my target weight of 165lbs.
  10. Tinare25, did you ever find out what was causing then?
  11. Whoooo glad to know I'm not alone.
  12. I'm in Watauga, not too far from you.
  13. You guys are going to be great! I'm back to normal just six days after my surgery. Can't wait to hear from you two on Thursday.
  14. Misery LOVES company. Ignore the lame post, remarks and focus on and our FUTURE accomplishments. I'm super excited!! Hope you are too!
  15. Thank y'all this really calms my nerves. Yes!! ?
  16. I just banded five days again and I'm having these fluttering chest bubbles that take a little of my breath away each time. Is this normal? In addition to that I drink my liquids and not even 1/4 the way done i fill really full and uncomfortable. I have not had a full yet. Oh and the left shoulder and neck pains...wth? Someone please explain...have I dine something wrong, is this normal? Should I call my doctor?
  17. That will be great! Now is you surgery July 10th or did you have in June?
  18. Congratulations! Not far to go. If you did good on that pre op diet, the surgery will be a breeze. I was recently banded on July 1st and thought the world was going to end by the time I got to my surgery date. Lol. But I made it! I too dropped 10lbs during my pre-op but you right it was hard. I'm excited for you and hope you keep us updated on your surgery. Feel free to hit me up anytime. #ificandoitanybodycan #teamgetsexy
