Hey girl, thanks for the message. My mom is the only family member besides my husband that knows. She took it really well after all. I am sooo glad I told her. How far are you from bandland? What step are you in the process?

OMG! Is that malpractice? Glad to know that the ball is rolling now.

Hey girl, Thanks for the friendship request! How is your weight loss journey going so far.

Hey girl! Just thought I'd drop by to see how you're doing. How is everything in bandland?

"fashionista trapped in a body too big for the clothes I love." Holla!-You have desricibed me to a tee.

Awesome album. You have a great looking family!

Hey girl! Actually I did not decide until my pre-op visit which was the Friday before my Monday Surgery. My Dr. basically made the decision for me. I had read up on both bands and was prepared to go with the New AP or the Realize. Well, I think my Dr. has just recently decide to do mainly realize. He did say that it was a shorter procedure and that meant less time for me on the table and under anesthesia which decreased the chance of clots and complications. The only down side is that it is installed without fill and so you are on your own until six weeks after surgery. I lost 11 lbs one week out so that's not too bad.

Awesome pics that you posted! Congrats on the weight loss.

Hey ms. I was just cruising through the Girlfriends WOC thread and decided to stop and say hello. Girl, you are nobody's grandma! OMG! You look fantastic. Can I be like you when I grow up?

Soror and sister, I just wanted to take a moment to send love and prayers your way.

Hey girl! Thought I would stop by your page an drop you a little note. How much education/classes/support group does Mercy provide? It really sounds like you are long overdue for a fill. Am I correct in saying that you have not had a fill period and you were banded in June? No wonder you are depressed, you have been doing this on your own for 3 months! That's what the band is for! Bless your heart. I was banded last week and my first fill is in 5 weeks. Honey you better kick down somebody's door and go in and get you a fill!

Hey girl, love the new avatar! Your page looks fabulous. I am 1 week out and I still have to do liquids:thumbdown: for 8 more days. I went to get my staples out and I have lost 11 lbs since surgery. Very happy about that.

Hey girl ,thought I'd stop to tell you that I luv your avatar!
