  1. Hi. I got banded a little over 2 months and I'm at 180 although it's been a slow weightloss I'm really happy with it. Hang in there. I think for people who have less to loose the weightloss is slower

  3. How's it going? Did you get banded? I got banded in May at 191 and I'm down to 180 and I'm happy. I finally feel like a "normal" person when I eat. I eat whatever I want but in smaller portions and I don't feel deprived 1 bit.

  8. My bottle of water at work has a straw and after I went back to work I started using it and started getting gas pains again so I stopped and it helped with the gas pains
  9. Betty, I'm doing 20-30 min of cardio (elliptical) and 20-30 min of weights. What do you think I should be doing?
  10. Thank you Chrissy! I did take my measurements the day of of surgery and again this morning so I can keep track of my inches lost which is what's really important.
  11. Hi! I'm trying to be really optimistic here. I had my 1st fill last Thursday and I started going to the gym on Sunday and instead of loosing weight I'm gaining weight!! I had my surgery 05/08/14 and I've been loosing steadily about 1 or 1 1/2 lbs per week and I was happy with that. This week I've gained 2 lbs!!! I assumed I would continue to loose weight, specially because I started working out.

  21. I received my 1st fill yesterday of only 2.6C but it's OK. I will not get another fill until 8 weeks because I go on vacation and he doesn't want me to get a fill right before I leave My NSV is that my boss told me he can tell I'm loosing weight (he doesn't know I got WLS) AND I can start seeing collar BONES!!!! I'm so happy about my bones starting to show up
  22. I still have pain on my port area if I bend over or do something the wrong way. Sorry I'm no help
  23. Thank you!! Since my dr is in the city, I was thinking of going to lunch with my kids before but I'll make it breakfast
  24. I'm getting my 1st fill on Thursday. Is it safe to eat right before my appointment?
  25. I'm doing good. I go for my 1st fill on Thursday.
