I have a wii fit and LOVE it! Its just a matter of me having or making the time to use it between working full time and raising a 21month old on my own and trying to clean house. Having a hard time finding time :blushing: sucks because I love it, so much fun working out with it.

Hey guys, just found this on the site. I was banded April 11th, starting weight 230. Current weight 196.6 7cc's.

Cypress, TX -Jess

Hey everyone! I just wanted to say I made it to ONEderland today Im so happy, I was getting so discouraged because my weightloss has been so much slower than my moms but it finally as of this morning showed me under 200. Wont be too much longer till I can make my ex-husbands gf (the one he left me for with in 5weeks of having our son) jealous. I'm wicked excited!!!

I love it! Those are great goals. I wanna screw with my ex-husbands head and make the girl he left me for (just after giving birth to our son) wicked parinoid. Wear sexy clothes to work like the suits from Victoria Secrets Of course the bikini goal and I'd love to take sexy Boudoir photos for my boyfirend

Hey there. I was banded 4-11-08, I was starving with in days and the liquids werent cutting it so I know how you feel. It sucked and I was hardly losing any weight and was sooooooooooo discouraged. But after my second fill im finally seeing some weight loss.

I used to use the firm and I really liked it, I don't anymore just because I got a little burnt out on it. I love Yoga Booty Ballet its a lot of fun too.

Mine was about 3 weeks after surgery

Hiya hun, boy do I understand your frustrations:confused2:. I was banded 4-11-08, got my first fill 5-1-08. I believe the made it 3 or 4cc's. I didn't feel it right away it took a few weeks and then it was like nothing. I could eat everything and anything I wanted, plus could chug Water. Sucked. So I was back to sheer will power to not over eat or act moronic in my food choices. I have a 15month old who feels I should be eating everything he eats which makes it even harder some days. I have a few friends who go this done and they dropped mad weight from the start and here I am busting my butt like always just to lose a lb here and a lb there. :thumbup: Well I finally was able to see my doc and this time they moved me up to 7cc's. OMG its freaking night and day. Though I know I probably shouldn't have but with in days of my first fill I could eat very carefully mind you (i chew till its liquefied) but could eat small bites of chicken. With the new fill I finally understand why we are taught to sip water. Even slim fast is a bit much for me. So I'm hoping that this was not to tight a fill but, wow I think its going to be an awesome tool now that its easier to use being so tight. I'm hoping to be able to eat right and work out to lose some mad weight by Aug 15th.... It'll be my birthday gift to my ex-husband. I'll drop off my son with him and his girlfriend looking so much better and healthier (I like to stir up trouble with him and that harlot when ever I can...hehe... shes small than me now but watch out!!!)

Im a big baby when it comes to needles but to doesnt hurt really. Feels like a sting and then its all done. Had my first fill like 3 weeks after sugery, got the second yesterday. Just mainly weird feeling and a bit uncomfortable for me lol.

Wow, that totally sux. My doc said that most kinda put it off to the side near your wait line but he feels that near the bra or waist line can cause to much pain. He placed mine mid way between my boobs and my belly button in the center so that way I can twist and turn and wear normal clothes with out discomfort. I really hope they move it for you.

I know what you mean, I kept trying to find posts about it and I even tried to work the question into some of my posts. We waited 3 days. Just had to be gentle about it is all. I asked my doctor and he said when ever I felt up to it but even in his pamphlets he gives us he address it just in saying no rough sex for 3 months lol.

Hmmm. Well I had something like that before I got banded a few years ago. They thought that it was a fungal infection but turned out I had an umbilical hernia, I would see a doc asap

Hey there, I was banded April 11th & had that horrible pain between my breast until just a few days ago & still get it every now & again. My doc said it was gas pain. Double check it with your doc though :blushing:

The pain meds aren’t too bad, didn’t get nauseous once from them. But I can totally sympathize with the itchy incisions lol. I have one that drives me completely batty!

Hi ya Trell, I was banded Friday & have been walking & playing with my son & today I have almost no gas pain its great!!! They make a liquid vitamin at GNC called Ultra Mega, its orange flavored, kinda spicy funky flavored but live able. I just got it today because I learned that chewable Flintstones aren’t good enough from a nutritionist lol. Good luck to you dear!:biggrin:

Aren’t we behaving like an ass? ________________ Marissa's Mom, I totally understand where you are coming from. I was banded Friday as well and I am so hungry. I’ve been trying to sip slim-fast for Protein when my stomach really gets to growling good. Sucks though, when my stomach growls really hard it makes it hurt and the incisions hurt too. Keep up with good work with liquids, just think come Friday we can have thicker Soups :huh2: I’m excited! Message me if you wanna talk.

I agree, I would be sleeping alot more to recover if I didnt have my son not sleeping through the night and waking up at the crack of dawn. Its nearing the end of my work day and Im exhausted but feel pretty good.
