    Now it's 12-15-09 and I weigh 119 pounds. I said I was through losing before, I know. I don't need to lose any more, and I don't want to. I actually could stand to put back on a couple of pounds but I don't plan to. Too scary!

    My 'before' and 'after' pics.

    I can't figure out how to put them in order from fat to thin.
  4. Hello.....you look great!!!!!

  5. Hi there! I was looking at your photos & you have done so great!! What's your secret!? If I eat too little I don't lose if I eat too much I don't lose! I have only lost 45 lbs in over a year. Congrats!

  6. Good luck with the process. You will do great!

  7. Thanks SportBikeGirl! I will start these immediately.

    Went to a funeral/memorial service

    I feel your pain. You know those LOUD gurgly noises that roll up your esophagus? I went on a first date to a movie and every time there was a really quiet scene, my throat growled and gurgled. Not only my date, but everybody around me could hear it. Eventually I started apologizing for the sounds. Needles to say, I didn't get a second date.
  9. ok for the pecks that i was talking about in the chat room... to work them my NP said to put your hands together like your praying move them straight up till your elbows touch, then move them up n down (with the elbows still touching) to work your pecks...i feel the burn when i do it lol. have a great day!!!

  10. Hey I messaged you through "send a message". Not sure where you check that. hehe

  11. Yes, I did have to have a slight unfill once. I think I had 4.5cc and EVERY time I took a bite or even a drink, my back and front would hurt sooo bad. Taking a little bit out helped. Right now I have pretty good restriction but not much will power. I make bad choices all the time (like home made ice cream) but I keep my total calories for the day under 1600. I should maintain my weight if I keep that up. I'm scared too. I've reached my goal, but there's always that worry in the back of my mind that I'll lose control again. You know that feeling?

  12. Hey! I can't get into chat either. I figured I was banned like that other perv. hehehe I'm so proud of you for your weight loss!! You're well on your way. Keep me posted!!

  13. Hi Isabella. Thanks for visiting my profile. I responded to your message over there. Congrats~You're doing great!!

  14. I LOVE my restriction!! I have 5cc in my 10cc band and I'm so thrilled that I can only eat a tiny amount. But lately, every time I eat I instantly get terrible back pain. I went to the doc and my gall bladder, liver, pancreas are all fine. All labs looked great. Could this be a symptom of an over-fill? I only have to eat about 3 bites and I get the instant back pain. Also, how much do you think I should take out? I don't really want to do more than 1/2 cc!! I'm losing so great! Thanks for any advice.
