    Ok...let me see if this works. The picture with my cat Kiki was taken November 2004 and the one in the green dress was May 2005.

    I haven't been on this site in years. I have had my band for 7 years and have not had a fill in years. I have been doing really good up until a year and a half ago. Long story short, my boss thought i was ADD (I am not) and made me start taking Adderall. I went from 140 to 128. I am 5'7". I kept taking that drug to keep my job despite the fact that people said I looked really bad. However, I have changed jobs now and no longer take that medication. Yeah! But now I am gaining too much weight back. I am scared. I weighed 152 this morning. My brain is on overload due to lots going on in my life and I need help with my diet. Please can anyone give me advice? I have no health insurance now so I can't afford to go back to see my doctor.....I would love to hear from you!

    I have had my band for 7 years now and have never avoided caffeine. Sodas are a strict no-no for me. Just listen to your head and your body and you will be fine.

    Smelling it works for me. I have been banded for 7 years and going some places are sheer torture still. But I have learned, if I can just take a good whiff of it, I am satisfied. Coke and Pepsi too. I just smell them (yes I get funny looks sometimes..lol) They aren't worth consuming and being skinny is much better. Good luck! You aren't in this alone...we are ALL there!

    MIs,
    I work for a neurologist and it works great. I am on the lowest dose of Gabapentin. It keeps my legs calm and it does help me sleep at night. I am gonna do the 5 day pouch test. Thank you so much!
    Rhonda,
    Yes, I turned psycho too. But I am not ADD. The doctor didn't like my bubbly attitude. I was the office manager and it was ok before I helped him open a new practice. But then he changed his tune and wanted more of a B*@%+. He thought this would help. NOT! LOL! I didn't tell anyone about it until my friends sat me down for an "intervention". I was that bad. Anyway, that is the past. I am moving on. right?
