  10. Hi guys, I am down 32lbs as of this morning! I am so impressed with the people who have lost over 50lbs so far. way to go
  11. Hi guys, It's been a long time since I posted and just wanted to give you guys an update. My first fill was 1cc and I was tight but it got losser towards the later part of the week. I had my second fill of .5 and was so tight that I had to get a unfill. I have days where I can eat and then days where i can not keep anything down. Is anyone experiencing anything like this after such a small fill amount? Oh I am down 38lbs in total!!!!!!!!!
  12. I just got my first fill on thursaday and I stll don't feel any restriction. i can go for my second fill in 2 weeks.
  13. I have learned tthat the weight will not drop off until you have restriction! I also have tried to educate people around me about the band. The few people that I have told are watching me waiting for the weight to just drop off. It's not bypass............. You have to work and wait and work and wait..........
  14. Hi everyone! I am 31 but I feel that this is the group for me. I hope that is o.k. with everybody. All of my friends are married and are starting to have children and I am not even close. I was in a 8 yrs relationship that ended 6 weeks before we were suppose to get married. My Mother asked me if he cheated on my because I had gained so much weight. So to make a long story short, I understand where you guys are more then 30 somethings. i have always had a great self image until about 6 mths ago and thats when i decided to gat the band. I only told 3 of my close girls and they are so supportive. My mother found out because she saw my pre op paperwork on my table when she came to visit. Now all I hear is how " when you are skinny........" She thinks that the reason I am not married is because I am fat. Does she even take into concideration that I have had several bad experiences that might effect the way I look at relationships? I am just curious about how the people aroung you feel about you getting banded
  15. Hi everyone, I went for my 3 week post op appt. today and I have not lost any weight. I am really not that concerned because I have not had a fill. My 1st fill is oct. 3rd (yeah)!!!! I really don't have any restriction but I am eating no more than 900 calories a day. I can't wait for the scale to start moving again...........................
