Hi I have booked with Dr Campos for body lift , booblift and implants and fat put back in my bum.LOL I have had 2 friends use him and were very happy with the results. I was quoted a really good price which included a hotel and 3 visits from a nurse. Good luck.

Hi All Today is finally a sunny day in Calgary. So I've taken the dog for a walk been to a stampede breakfast where I ate nothing and I'm going out to dinner with my lapband support group tonight. Already looked at the menu online and know what I'm going to eat. Also trying to gather the funds for my deposit for my bodylift , boob lift and fat injections into my bum scheduled hopefully for this time next year. So No spending or holidaying here. Enjoy your day.

Hi Guys I hope you all had a good Independence Day.I know I had a good Canada Day. Its also Stampede and I know I'll be tempted by all the new fried food (deep fried jelly beans) so I'm only going to visit the grounds once and have 1 treat. I'm finding it hard being completely unfilled again and have gained 5lbs ,but that is better than last time when I gained 20 lbs back. I know my pouch is still stretched as I have pain when I eat solid protein so sliders become easy to pick (all bad). Maybe a week of liquids and Maalox will help my pouch and get me refocused. I sound like a moaning minnie, What I mean to say is I will exercise more. I will make better choices. Have a great day ladies.

Hi all Glad everyone is OK. I'm struggling with an unfilled band and have gained a couple of pounds. IT STOPS NOW!! We have a family wedding at the weekend and I bought a summer dress size Medium and it fits well but it won't if I gain a pound.LOL Exercise is coming back slowly as I'm gaining some energy. I went to curves twice last week and hope to increase to 5 days a week. I'll keep you posted. Its sunny here finally so I'm gonna enjoy the day.

Hi I also would be going alone and plan to stay 10-14 days but even with this extra cost it would be way cheaper and I wouldn't have to worry about doing too much etc.

Hi I was banded in Mexico and decided to get a quote for PS there also. For body lift, fat put back in my bum and breast implants was a total of $10,500. Much better than the $20,000 in Calgary. I still have to save though. So hopefully next year. Nicole

HI VVs Well I'm just back from Tj from my Drs visit and yet again I've had to have a complete unfill. My pouch is a little stretched on one side so liquids for a week or so untill it goes down. Hopefully I won't gain any weight this time. I also saw a Plastic surgeon while I was down there and I will need a body lift, fat put back in the bum and implants to fill out the girls again. So I am starting to save from today. We had snow here today and my plants don't look too healthy. Hopefully I can rescue them. HAve a great day. Nicole

Hi All Not alot happening here and especially not any exercise. I had been going to curves 3/4 times a week but the last 6 weeks I haven't been at all. This was because my band was too tight I wasn't getting enough of anything and was exhausted by 4pm. I'm alot better now although I need another tiny unfill. Ezma I was sorry to hear about your hubbie passing.My thoughts are with you. I'm glad you have some good days. Angie Power to you girl. Shiny I've moved 8 times in 12 years, although I've been told NO MORE. i enjoy setting up the new place and keeps me out of the fridge. You look great in both piccies but I do like the shorter hair. Lori Love that you are you. Nicole

Hi I'm definately thinking TT and maybe booblift and my thighs look awful so we will see how many $$$$. As I have a dayhome I couldn't do it until next year as I have already given my time off for 2009. Possibly July. That will give me time to save up also. I would really like to be perfect before going to UK the following year for my sisters wedding. My Dad is my biggest weight critic. The last time I saw him I was 250lbs and a size 20 so I would love to show off the new me. Gotta run the kiddie winks are pulling up the flowers I just planted.AAAH Nicole

Hi I had to get up at 5am this morning to tidy my house and do laundry as I run a dayhome and I had let everything go this weekend. I've started to think about PS and I am going to have a consult when I go to Mexico for my DRs appt. I'll have to save up though, but it will be nice to know how much it would cost. My exercise has fallen by the wayside for the past month as I have had zero energy. I think that was due to being too tight and not getting enough nutrients etc. Maybe tomorrow I'll hit curves. Talk soon.

Hi I did a ton of gardening yesterday and today I went shopping for some summer shorts and a dress for a family wedding. Still really tight although I had an unfill 3 weeks ago.Alough it is TOM. I'm living on liquidized chicken breast ,veg and broth. Back to the Dr in 2 weeks so hopefully I will sort myself out. Its weird how I had 3cc for months without a problem and now at 1.4cc I can be tight. Have a good week. Back to the

Hi All I was just wondering has anyone considered CS now we are 1 year out from banding? I know i wouldn't mind giving the girls some attention and a TT although my stomach isn't as bad as I thought it might be. I will have to save for years to get it done though. Congrats to all 1 year bandsters. Hooray for VV's.

Hi All Well its a year today. Did I think I would lose 90lbs in a year, not on your life, but due to the band I have.SORT OF. I actually have an empty band at the moment due to an emergency unfill in January.I have put on 10lbs in that time due to bad choices of food and knowing I could eat bread after 11mths. DO I feel I've failed No but I'm disappionted I'm not at my ultimate goal in the 1st year. Once I start getting fills again I know I can lose the last 15lbs. I have also discovered that 1, I can;t wear my wedding and engagement bands they're too big. 2, I actually have a boney bum and can get uncomfortable sitting in the tub.LOL 3, I've lost 6 dress sizes 22 down to an 8. YIPEE!!! 4, I've lost My son or daughter or my 2 little ones in weight When I pick them up its a nice reminder of what I carried around with me all the time. 5,Sex is so much easier and more fun! 6,My teenage daughter borrows MY clothes. 7, My husband was inspired to get lapband after seeing my results. 8,I feel GOOD!

When I don't post it means I had a bad day. Not good as I have only posted a couple of times. Breakfast= turkey stick

Hi I've been really struggling especially in the evening as I have an empty band. Yesterday Am =Protein shake snk =mushrooms lunch =cheese string 2 slices ham and salad pm = protien shake ( running all night with kids) Today so far am =Protein Shake Lunch = 4 fish sticks 1/4 cup baked Beans

Breakfast = hard boiled egg lunch = cup of prawns snack already = 2 chocolates AARGH!!! I NEED MY FILL BACK!!!

Hi Girlies Thanks for the support and advise. The Dr said throwing up caused my pouch to pull on one side any worse and they would have called it a slip. I'm trying to stick to 1200 cals and increase my protein. I know I reverted to eating junk when I was so tight as it would stay in. I have recommitted to the band and will up the exercise aswell. Curves here I come. I also have No clothes above a size 8 so there is noway I'm gaining weight. Thanks to all.

Hi Gals Last week I had to get a complete unfill after bad heartburn ,not being able to eat Protein and finally not being able to drink a Protein shake or tea. I'm not allowed to get a fill for 4 weeks and the Doc wants me to have under flouro as I had also stretched my pouch on one side. I am going to get my fill in 8 weeks so that is 9 weeks of bandster hell before I get to start all over again. I have already gained 5lbs and can't get back on the wagon I'm so frustrated as I only had 6lbs to loose. AARGH. Sorry just had to vent.

Hi I love the smartones turkey and mash with gravy.I just add some veg. I could eat this one every day. OH I did on my pre-op.LOL

Hi All Can you believe we have had these bands for 10mths .What are people gonna do to celebrate one year band anniversary? I may go back to Mexico to get the band checked out. happy New Year to all.

Wow ! Fantastic!

Hi I'm losing hair also I did add Biotin to my daily intake of vitamins as I was told it would help. I may have to go the Nioxin route also. Nicole
