    Today is one week since I started over. I got a fill on Saturday. My fill person said everything looked ok, there was a little sign that i had stretched pouched just a little, but nothing to worry about. I lost 8lbs this week. I think that is good.

  9. If you look at the pictures of me on here, you will see how disappointed I am with myself. I set here and think how could I go from a size 16 all the way down to 1 (at my smallest) not showed in the pictures. I think I was wear a 4 or 6 in the pictures, and now right back to a 16. What is wrong with me.
  10. Thanks everyone far your support. I lost 80lbs. It took me about 7 months. I kept it off about 18 months. Then I started slipping. Eating at night when the food goes down easy. I'm a stress eater. When I'm stessed I eat. I still feel like the band was doing its job. I just wasn't doing my part. Because I still didn't eat much during the day. Then the next thing I knew 4 years has past and I have gained every pound back.
  11. I was banded on 8-8-05. I lost all my weight by 5-06. But guess what its all back. I have gained every pound back. I go next saturday to have a fill. I can't believe i did this to my self. all that work just went up into smoke. what do i do now.
  12. well i have a bad story for you. I was band on 8-8-05. lost all my weight by 8-06. But guess what, I've gained all of it back. Going next Saturday to get a fill. I can't believe i did this to myself. all that work just to gain it all back

  17. I had a consult last thursday with a plastic surgeon. I want to have a breast lift, face lift, eyes and the nose done. He said I couldn't have all of it done at one time. I felt like Harleynana said if your going to be in pain get it all done at one time.
  18. You have done a super job. Please let us know about the PS. I have a consult with the PS on Thursday.

  22. I'm at 3.1 and feel like I need more.
  23. Has anyone had anytype of fascial plastic surgery or breast lift? If so could you give me all the details. I have a consult next week. I am getting nervous.
  24. I don't see anyone.
  25. I am very proud of Brittney. She is in the 11th. grade. Just one more year then off to college. Her hypotheses was " Ivory soap is the only soap that floats. She took a bar of Ivory soap and 4 other name brand bars of soap and put them in Water. The Ivory soap was the only one that floated. Then she put the bars of soap in the micowave for 45 seconds. The 4 name brand soaps just melted a little bit. When she put the Ivory soap in the micowave it blew up and looked like whip-cream. It filled the whole micowave up. I'm not science smart like she is, but the best I can explain it to you is that It's to do with the Charles law and that she figured out that when they make Ivory soap they whip air in it. I will let you all know how she does at the State comp. next Thursday. Thanks for all your kind words.
