Chicagoboy

Nothing. I always ate the same as everyone else. I did snack often so this is where I ran into trouble.

One way I greet people is to say what's shaken? Well I walked into the mens room and noticed a few men I knew standing up doing there business. Of course I said "what's shaken" and there was an uncomfortable silence to say the least. Thank God they knew I was married or I may have got my ass kicked. lol

I have had 3 fill thus far. 8cc total I have lost 10 lbs total since May 24, 2005. I can eat anything I hope the next fill helps I have 3 cc left to fill. I'm concerned for myself to say the least.

I'm 8cc with room for another 3 cc if I need it. I got 4 cc the first time and 2 cc each after that. I think 1 cc from here on if needed. I have some problems with bread but everything else is ok. I will need 1 cc or 2 IMO.

I went here could not be happier. Dr Rosen is my Doc but the others are excellent too. http://www.wishcenter.org/new/surgeons_il.asp

Your 100% right. I was told to do that on my last visit. Did I do that? No But now seems to be the right time. Thanks for that web site. I'll start in the am when I wake up. Peace!

After my recent fill (#3) I can honestly say that I notice a change but I can still eat almost anything. Bread is not my friend unless I take it sloooow. pizza cust very little at a time. I have lost 10 lbs since my surgery so I'm a little concerned that I may be coming to the end of the road with the band. I have the larger band with a maximum of 11 cc. My next appt is in one month. I know my Doc is expecting to see me lose 4-6 minimum. I assume he may do another 1 cc from here on. On a good note I have stepped up my exercise program with good cardio work out but time will tell if I'm fooling myself. Another friend of mine who has the same Dr. said he has 11 cc now and can eat everything with no problem. He said the Dr. is being very understanding and not charging him for his recent care. He may need to go back and have another band pute in. I hope this thing works out for both of us. Anyone else have this problem?

Teresa if you need it you should use it. If you lost weight and don't need it then that a different story.

I'm renting one now for myself.

2 weeks and lets get back to fun.

Only my wife knows. Maybe next year when I reach my goal.
