When did you get your first fill?
I am 8 weeks post op and no fill booked. I am going to get pushy with my doctor

Frustrated at the small fills. Whats the Norm?
I have not had my first fill yet. I keep filling in the form to get one and the nurse calls with advice to change my diet. I feel I am 98% compliant and am considering a letter to my doctor. The fill place is near me but is 4 hours from where I had surgery. The reason I chose Toronto is because there was a fill place in Ottawa. 8 weeks out and not being able to use the band as the great tool it is

Your response to: "but you aren't 'THAT' big!"
Most people don't understand our silent battle with obesity. I will never forget some things people said to me or the way they looked around me when talking to me.

Newbie to exercise
It has been a few tears since I joined a gym or walked 5 km. starting out after surgery with hernia with swimming. Upped my steps to 10,000 as many days as I could. Went for small workout at gym. I cannot do everything I want right now but hoping for weekly progress

Anyone want to be fat again?
Even 25 pound loss has me doing things I couldn't last month.

Lacking genuine support but hearing horror stories
Last New Year's resolution was to become selfish. I don't have a selfish bone in my body. If I don't take care of me, who will?

ugghh and duh
I told two friends I don't see often. O e took me to the hospital. The other went through wls herself. She has regained a lot of weight back and I will try to help her get back on track. My daughter, the nurse might figure it out when she arrives for Christmas. She will understand but be upset as I was private about it. .
