  1. C 191 (- 83 total, - 0 this week) I also stayed the same and am in need of a fill. I'm going this afternoon. Hopefully it will jump start my weight loss again because I've been teetering between 191 and 194 for a month now. Plus, I'm eating like crazy....every hour or so.

  20. My husband and I were jumping on one at our friend's house the other day and we were both winded after a few minutes. We liked it so much that we might get one as well.

  22. This sounds just like me. I'm 35 with no kids...although, I do have an 8 year old step-son. My husband and I hope to get pregnant at the beginning of next year.
  23. All I can do is relay my own experience. I'm almost 10 months post-op and I've never had a problem with my band. Please keep in mind that the people who do have problems are a small fraction of the total number of people banded. They are also more likely to post about their problems than those that don't. Think about it...if someone is not having a problem they probably won't start a thread such as "Hey, I have no problems!" If, God forbid, you do experience a problem and need your band removed, it will most likely be an emergency situation, which would land you in the emergency room and should be covered under most insurance plans. I hope this eases your fears. Hugs, Tricia
