I lost the majority of my weight before I met my fiance. I have lost about 30 lbs since meeting him...he didn't say anything until one morning I asked him how come he would "move my butt around" during the night...he said "because your bones are poking me...if you loose anymore I will need pads!" That was enough for me :thumbup:

I had to have two surgerys, one on a Friday, in hospital for weekend and the next on Monday....all because the doctor up in a band knowing it was probably too small...and it was! Despite that and not being able to reach my goal, I would do it again RIGHT NOW! I am on no meds and wear a size 6 pants...oh yeah and I met the man of my long forgotten dreams and will be married next spring!!

I have 6 cc's in my 14 cc band and had my last fill in January. I have had a few days when I thought I might need another fill but most of the time I have perfect restriction. Too bad ice cream will go down no mater what!:thumbup:

Hello neighbors one and all! I live in Terrell and work in Plano right now. My journey had stalled for about a year..maintained..I actually had gotten "happy" with my size but decided that still didn't put me at goal and because of the history of cancer in my family, goal is important! I just got a fill two weeks ago and now I am down another 11 lbs...THE BAND IS WONDERFUL!

Good Morning fellow Texan...best of luck on your band journey..it has been a glorious one for me!

To change your calorie info go to the website and to your page and go to my info tab at the top and you should see a screen that says "targets". I went ahead and had my appointment on the phone and just didn't mention I was banded. I received a lot of useful information.

I am loving my Body Bugg....it has definately kept me moving and away from food. I sure don't want to have to up my exercise to burn more calories! I wear mine to bed because I love to see what I burn during the night...as far as sex goes..if I ever have it again I will definately wear it just to see how many calories I can burn...might just cancel my gym membership at that point...HAHA...

I am loving my bodybugg...I didn't know there was an up and down to it..I just throw it on either way and it works fine. I went ahead with my free 45 minute phone session and just didn't mention lapband. The woman was wonderful and basically walked me all over the website and showed me all kinds of tools I can use to see how I am doing and change up things if I need to.....

I have been wearing mine since Tuesday and I definately am sitting less...I want to keep those numbers where they belong. I am going to order the digital part as it would make me move even more if I knew where I stood (or moved) each day...

One more question; they just called to set up my first phone session and want me to log my food for a week and make sure I take my weight in the am of their call. Did you guys tell them on the phone about the lapband? I think otherwise my eating habits will seem just too strange to them.

Thanks guys...appreciate your responses!

I got my bodybugg today and had to call to get help installing it on my computer...does anyone use the dietary part of the online program? No matter how I try to trick it with answers, it says I need 60% carbs so that isn't going to work for me!

My Bodybugg will be here tomorrow...I am so excited. I have been paying for a gym membership and haven't gone in over 2 months..I am hoping this is the motivation I need!

Hi there and welcome...I was banded in Mesquite on May 7th by Dr. Stephen..it has been a fabulous journey!

I would love to go but that is a work night for me and I live in Terrell..so just too far!
