  1. Wow! You look amazing!!
  2. Congrats on your success! I love your outlook. It's all about quality of life & yours has sky rocketed. Great job! Thanks for sharing.
  3. I think it takes me a couple of days to tell. I'd take it slow although it's frustrating. You'll get there. Don't give up.
  4. Wow! You look 10 years younger & absolutely amazing!! So happy for you!!!
  5. That's wonderful & thanks for encouraging those of us just beginning this journey. I'm 8 weeks post op & have lost 25 lbs with about 60 more to go. So, this gives me hope. I wish you continued success!
  6. Amazing results!! Thanks so much for paying it forward & encouraging those of us just beginning this journey. I'm 8 weeks post op & am in bandster hell. I'm battling hunger & portion control. I've lost 24 lbs but it's been my willpower alone. Can't wait for some help from this band. I wish for you a long & happy life!!
  7. I'm almost 6 wks post op. I've had one fill of 2 1/2 cc in my 10cc band & feel no difference. I go back Tuesday for my 2nd fill of hopefully 2 1/2 again. How much was just right for those of you who care to respond? Thanks so much.
  8. I'm 5 weeks post op & the pain was worse than I expected. I took all my pain med & then some. At 3 wks, I felt better. Don't push yourself. Rest & heal.
  9. Yes that sounds like my experience. I am 6 wks post op & I felt better 2 days post op than I did at 1 week out. Hang in there. It gets much better at around 2 weeks. Don't push yourself, rest & protect your incisions.
  10. Wow! What an inspiration. I'm 4 weeks out & just starting my journey. But your story & others like it help me so much. So happy you have your life back.
  11. I just had surgery on April 25, 2014 along with 2 of my best friends. What a painful 2 weeks it has been! We are finally feeling better though. We get our first fill in 2 more weeks. So anxious to feel restriction & begin losing.
  12. Oh what an inspiration. I'm on day 2 after surgery , but this encourages me so much. I've got about 80 lbs to lose to be at my goal weight. Ready to heal & get to losing!
  13. Thanks so much for your encouraging words. Today is my 2nd day out & I'm very very sore but no other complaints at all. No gas pain! I'm so excited to get healed so I can begin the fills!
  14. Wow! Future former fattie that's awesome! Water loss or not, I'll take it! Thanks for your post & I wish you continued success.
  15. I am scheduled for lapband surgery tomorrow April 25. Scared to death but so excited too. I would love to hear from those of you that don't regret your surgery. I think it would encourage me. Thanks.
  16. Wow. That's amazing!!
