Similar problem. All I can say is: BENEFIBRE, BENEFIBRE, BENEFIBRE. AND FIBRE 1 Cereal SAVED MY LIFE! TRY IT ! Rose :whoo:

hi Marlaine - how r u? did you end up weighing yourself after all? Are u having a thanksgiving turkey this weekend? I will , just a little. Getting ready for your cruise? You'll have to bring some pics to the luncheon ! Rose Happy Thanksgiving :hungry:

Hi Haizel - how r u doing? Better luck? What's new? Lets not have too much turkey this weekend !LOL

You Go Girl !!!!! Do The Happy Dance !!

Lianna, WOW! You are doing amazing !! Great weight loss, but even better health. I kinda feel stupid calling TLBC and telling them about this restriction. I havent heard of anyone of getting just one fill. ???? I'll look out for that dr.'s name, thanks again..see you soon.. Rose

Hey Lianna, how r u doing girl?? Good, I can see from your ticker !! Lets get this sexy thing back eh !11?? I know I am doing this for my health, but I am DDDYYYIIINNNGGGGG to put on a pair of sexy jeans and a leather jacket back on.... Anyway, had my first fill at TLBC. Went very well. Got 5 cc. Feel the restriction. Have gotten stuck twice though. Will go for second fill on the 15th. Cant imagine getting more restriction ??? Yesterday, had a bowl of Cereal for breaky. Had two crackers with tuna and a third of a banana and was good. But I decided I would stupidly take a bite of the kids' pogo (JUST ONE BITE ) ???? Yeah, it got stuck. It was ok. At least I didnt puke. And last nite was at hosp. all nite and didnt feel any hunger. So all I had was the tuna and that was it....Thank God I can still eat some bread - toast, and guzzle my Water. We're not having a Thanksgiving dinner, (my mom is real sick), so that solves that problem. Dont know if we can meet yet for coffees, but glad we can get together for lunch.....Let me know how u r doing? By the way, can you get that doctors number for me from your aunt..???? Take it easy... Rose P.S. I have lost 23 pounds !!!!!:whoo:

Marlaine, Weenette, Lianna....where are you's? Are you able to come to the luncheon?

Yahoo for the people who can come. Lferland , I know, some of these luncheons are a little too far. Maybe I'll catch you at a later one ! Take care and good luck! Rose

I've already set things up for the November luncheon. I know it is early, but I'd love to see you there..

Haizel, got to TLBC at 12:45, probably you were way gone by then. There were only 4 of us being filled today. All of us did well , with the 5 cc. I was VERY DELIGHTED as I stepped on their scale , (much lighter than mine) ! I had not gained at all ! How crazy is that! I am sure that is does not help that I am weighing myself each hour of the day LOLLOL! I have had a full Soup for dinner and am still ok. I am sorry you had the sliming, but you may lose quicker now... My port had flipped, but she found it first shot.... I will pray for us for a successful journey and May God give us the strength to face each day.... Rose

Haizel - sadly enough, this morn. when I got on my scale, I have regained 4 pounds !!! OMG !!!!This damn restriction thing better work. I know I am an emotional eater and right now the doctors have given my sick mother about six weeks to live and I am going CRAZY !!!!!! Not to mention the $16 K we have spent !!!!! Anyway... when did you get banded and how much have you lost -( sorry, it is hard to remember peoples' band date) ? I was banded Aug. 17. As of my preop Aug. 4th, I had lost 22 pounds... now? I dont know...when I stepped on the TLBC's scale, it was much lower than mine at home...good!!!! Rose.................We have got to hang in there, for our lives !:hail:

What area do you live in Haizel? I am in Pickering, Ontario.:clap2: Rose

I totally hear you Haizel ! I might be there around 12:30 - 1:00, around there. MIght not see you - but we'll keep in touch! This week for me has been real bad.... Rose We will have to help each other....:hug:

Hello Haizel ! I am going for my first fill Oct. 1st at about 1:00. I'll look for you- it is Rose. I was banded Aug. 17 - how about you? How much have you lost? Maybe I'll see you there! I cant wait too - I am eating nonstop !! I know I have been a bad girl. I have had alot of stress come up and am having a real hard time with it. I need that fill !!!! Rose :help:

Hi Patricia - I was banded Aug. 17. I had lost 22 pounds, now gained back 2 (no restriction) !!!! One more week until my fill - cant wait. Hope to start losing. Real worried about this sliming business about drinking water at the fill. Markham - cool ! Whereabouts? Good luck tomorrow! I know about the luncheon in Oct., but too far for me to drive... dont know, unless I can get a ride.. ??? Talk to you later....

Mandi, you look so awesome !! Getting to the 150's must be such an incredible feeling - I am hoping to get down there too! Hope you relocate closer to us so we can meet u at the lunches! And what is this about the ribs ??????? DONT BE ASHAMED --- A MEAT LOVER, YOU GO GIRL!!!!!! By the way, I swear by Curves, I go three times a week and totally LOVE IT!!!! You do your thing and your out in 30 minutes. Have been successful with it before, before bandland. Have joined up again and lovin it! Rose

Thanks for your help - it helps me realize that things are ok according to all you experts! You just dont know what to expect on this long journey..... I am also afraid that since I dont have any restriction right now, I dont want to go overboard..... :rolleyes Rose

I am at week 5 and will go for my fill next week. I have not lost weight in two and half weeks :cry . Is this normal? Am I just freaking out too early? Will I lose weight the week of my first fill? I know, I know, just a little nervous, but would like to hear opinions. :help: I am happy with my 20 pound weight loss, but would like it to keep going.... Rose

Lianna, so glad you are doing so well. Have your girls no clue yet? I dont know how you could hide it. Anyway, cant wait to meet for a coffee and see how you are doing...but I'll let you recover first....Rose

Thanks Peaches !! One more week until my fill - I need it, I am getting hungry !!!! What area do you live in? I am in Pickering, Ontario.

I have not had my first fill, (Oct. 1), but I can feel that is has flipped already....????Good? Bad???? Am I in trouble? :cry Rose

Oh ! Sounds like everyone had such a nice time !!! I was so sad to miss it! My father finally went home today. He had cataract surgery on Thurs., but ended up staying here because he is 82 and needed help. Of all weekends !:cry Is there any news (I know it is early), when the next one is, I missed meeting a few of you, I hope we can all meet !! Best wishes to all, Rose P.S. My ticker wont work, but I've now lost 22 pounds since Aug. 4th !!:whoo:

Guys, I cant believe this. My dad had some eye surgery on Thurs. and is now spending the weekend with me. So, I cannot make the luncheon. Damn ! I will hopefully try for the next one! Have a great time everyone!
