Okay sorry 1 more... This is Me and my hubby John at the Seven Falls.. he walked up the stairs it was 241 steps up.. hes still sore from it LOL me I didnt walk up them maybe next time

This is me and my mom.. we took her to CO with us.. she had a blast, like a little kid.

This is me in a Gold Mine, out in Cripple Creek... I found no gold, even though they said that 80% of the Gold is still in those mines.

This is me at The Garden of The Gods

Finally I got my pictures from when we went to Colorado.. This is me at Ghost Town.. it was made inside to look like the Old West Ghost Town type places..

I want to get this video, but there are so many.. which one do you recommend. I have hear so many good things about Walk Away The Pounds, and want to start. Thanks

I agree. I call my Dr. if I feel anything diffrent, Useally its nothing but I always want to be safe. My life and taking care of my band is important to me, I will not try to hurt myself. being to tight and not eating, is so bad for you, your body, and your band.

Thanks everyone! So I think Im doing good... I do need to drink more water. that will probably help me not to get so hungry inbetween meals so quickly.

Depending on what I eat I get hungry 1 1/2 hours - 2 1/2 hours after I eat. It seems normal but then it seems like I should not get hungry until 3 - 4 hours after. I just got a fill last Thursday. So, How long after you eat do you get hungry?

I hope Im not to late to join... This Morning : 317 Goal : 290 Thats 27 pounds I need to lose.. I know it seems high.. but I think I can do it! or get really close to it

I just had my Fill and I was told I could eat... Just to be very careful. Im glad I didnt have to do liquids, I was somewhat on vaction hehehe

I have no problems chewing gum.. i get NO gas, NO pain nothing... I have always been grossed out about swallowing gum so I wont do that. but so far it dont do anything to me. Now drinking water to fast.. I burp all kinds!! LOL

Hey Aileena, I had my first fill on the 23rd.. It was pretty much a breeze too... Lucky you though getting numbed first LOL And I hear ya about the pressure, I guess they poke and feel to make sure they get the right spot. It was intresting. Glad yours went great! Take Care

I took a shower the after too... I didnt wash my tummy at all.. I just let the water run over it.. It felt really good... I did wash the essential parts though LOL

WOW everyone looks... FANTASTIC!!! I will have some pictures from our Colorado trip Monday... (Im going for my fill) I will flant my new filled body for you then... LOL

hahaha I think she meant Jump..

I waited an hour in the pre-op room.. or maybe longer. I had a blood thinner shot that had to take effect. and I had my stockings and They gave me a shot to relax me right before I was wheeled in.. My Dr. was talking to me but I kept falling asleep lol.. then they came to wheel me back and I kissed me hubby and cried the whole way... then they made get on another table and i remember having a mask over my face taking deep breathes.. like one.. I was out! I woke up in recovery asking "Am I skinny yet?" Then I got wheeled into my room and I watched the snow fall... I was so out of it.. it was fun!!! LOL

Debbie, sorry you had a hard time with your fill. Im going to see Dr. Smith tomorrow 23rd for my 1st fill. Im a little scared about it but I hope i do good. I can feel my port very well so im hoping that Dr. Smith will find it fast. Congrats on your 16 1/2 pounds thats really good. I need to learn to eat better as well.. maybe we can encourage one another! Take Care

You look Famous!!! Love the hair!!!

WOW Thank you!!!!! I had a wonderful day... Thanks to my DH I even won 60.00 at the casino lol Happy Birthday to you too Mary! hope you had a wonderful day!!! (((((((((((hugs)))))))))))

I havent had heart burn since my surgery.. oh and I love it!! I use to get heart burn 4-5 times a day without meds.. and now NONE!! I cant "feel" the band but, I can feel when i start to get full... I just wish I can learn to stop... The stuck feeling is the worse feeling in all the world! I didnt think I was doing as well either.. but I know a fill will help/boost my weight loss. Just keep an eye out for what you are eating.. I know its hard but we all have to learn, I know im still trying! Seems like everything is normal with what you are having to go thourgh. Good Luck with everything!! Take Care!!!!!

Hey April BandFamily!!!! I was Banded April 28th and i am doing okay.. I have lost 20lbs and cant wait to lose more. I waiting to pass the 300's and say goodbye to them FOREVER!!! Im going on June 24th for a fill and hopefully that will kick start my weight loss. Hang in there April Bandsters! We can do it!!!! Good Luck to everyone.. ((((((hugs)))))))))

I can feel my port poking me too. My port is right under my ribcage on the left side. When I am sitting at the table studying or even sitting down watching TV it starts to hurt a little like i feel the pressure on my ribs. I asked my Dr.'s Asst. about it and he said its okay.. and once I start losing weight it will start to feel better. So your not alone in this hehehe... Take Care

UHC misplaced my paper work too.. I stayed on the phone with them until i got a straight answer even if i called 10 times that day. I was approved the next day. sometimes you have to fight!!!

What a cutie you have there Paula!! She looks like a doll.
