  1. Hi, Who cares how quick or slow it is, so long as you are losing. It may be a longer road for some people to reach their target. So long as we all get there in the end that is all that matters.
  2. Thanks. At least I am not the only one. Maybe I need to get a cat

  5. Hi all, The one thing I was taught as a child was never to waste food and always finish what was on my plate. (Maybe that got me where I was with my weight who knows ) I had my surgery in September as as time has gone on and the band has been adjusted I find almost impossible to eat more than a few mouthfuls, which is a good thing. It does however play on my conscience and I fight with myself to have one more mouthful so as not to waste. You all know what happens then lol. Eating at home is fine, but when I eat out I feel awful leaving the food. I am not asking for advice, I have already resulted to sharing my daughters meal when we eat out. I guess I just wanted to vent LOL. Anyway to all out there, good luck with your journeys and enjoy the little food you can eat
  6. Live and let live is what I say
  7. Hurt like hell the first few times but I guess your bits must toughen up after a while lol

  16. I am five months out from surgery and loving my band. i do get reflux sometimes but I can usually put that down to eating something I wasn't supposed to. When I eat right I don't have any issues at all. I love every new day that the band brings and the challenges I know are still ahead. Good luck with what you decide
  17. Congratulations on your new journey. Good Luck
  18. Dolores, What can I say my friend apart brag away... you deserve it. WTG my friend x
  19. All I can say to that post is wow. What a fantastic way to tell your story. You are amazing and a true inspiration to us all who have just started or in the middle of our weight loss stories. Thanks for the post
  20. Dear Louluch, On my first fill I had 2cc put in and didn't feel anything. It takes time. I had my fourth fill yesterday and am on liquids so can't tell yet, but the only thing I can say is after my third fill I could still eat but I had to eat a lot slower. Be patient it's a long road and one that will test your patients
