Sherry, Congrats on your purchase. I too havent really lost much this year, so hopefully with our new motivator, we can start kickin butt!!!

I dont think the slimmer one has come out just yet, but I hear its in the not too distant future. I just couldnt wait any longer though

Hi everyone!! I too am a slow loser. I have a net loss of only 20lbs since surgery last November. I have lost as much as 40, but that last 20 found its way back home. I know its my fault though. I dont follow the rules like I am suppose to and although I have some restriction, I could probably use another fill. I get so upset with myself cuz its not like I dont know what to do, I just need to do it -- gosh darn it-- Well I have been away from LBT for quite awile, but I am back. I want to really start over again. I have been exercisining and taking my protein drinks, now I am ATTEMPTING to start changing my food habits (wish me luck!!) Okay thanks for letting me vent

I have been reading how well everyone is doing with their bodybugg and wanted one too... So its on its way... yeahhh. Hopefully my numbers will look just as good!!!! :clap2::clap2:

Hi there to those that i dont know. I used to be on this thread for a while, but as life would have it, I got caught up in so many things. I was banded in Nov of last year, and unfortunately, I have only managed to lose/keep off 20lbs since surgery. I have been yo-yoing these about 15lbs for the last 9 months. I will admit that I hardly follow the band rules (thus why I am not losing) But there is always today, and I am starting to get back serious with trying to lose this weight for good. As do most of us, I know what I need to do to lose, its just either too hard or I am seriously lacking the will power (I have to say its more of number two than one anyways, to the newbies, please dont be discourage by journey. Just know that it takes LOTS OF WORK after you have been banded. This boards are so hopful, so read a lot, stick to it and do well.... I'd love a reunion/newbie get together... just name the place and time! :bounce:

Hello ladies! Wow, its beens some time. Hopefully everyone is well. I am doing great. Not losing like I hoped, but its okay... We should definately get together soon. Cya!

Hey Miss Connie! I was just thinking about you... I am very happy to hear you and the baby are doing well. I miss ya too. I will give you a call soon! Tell hubby Hi!

Hey Miss Gunn4ya, happy belated birthday!

Too mucho KK!!!!!

Hello there ladies!!! Sorry. They took away my message board capabilites at work so now I be lost in the sauce!:angry

dont make me hurt you with all that sugar!!!

Maudeispam, is dry heaving what will happen from now on? I got sick on monday and my stomach was upset and kept going thru the motions of trying to thow up but nothing was coming out. This went on from the middle of the night till 6 hrs later. My doc office said that I should have been able to vomit, but I wasnt. I have great fears about this happening again. Anyone else have this problem???

PrazeDiva, I work for Federal Government and I have MDIPA. No problems getting approved as long as you have your doctor's notes from your 6mo consecutive medically supervised diet plan

Wowsers... waisting no time huh...:welldone: I am soooo happy for u Connie! and hubby too.... Just dont try to rub none of that stuff on me LOLLLL!!

Yeahhh, glad to hear u have restriction.... 2007 is on an poppin.. we losing 500 more pounds for 2007. Come on Maryland... we can do i!!!!

I'll be there too, gift in tow.... please email me with the directions!! Cya band sista.

Hey there everyone! Congrats to everyone for on their successful surgeries. I have a question... I was banded 11/09 and have been eating mushies/regular foods, but it seems like everything i eat hurts.. I try to chew well, smaller bites and not over eat, but even after the first few bites, I feel like I am about to choke or that the food is stuck in the esophogas (spelling?) I know that is kinda how the band works, but I feel like i can't even get a minimal amount of food down without this feeling. I get bummed out over it. Since I have not had a fill yet, I thought I would not be experiencing this. I guess maybe its because I havent loosened up or maybe because I am still healing, but its just so uncomfortable :phanvan Anyone in the same boat?

Wish I had a confession for Thanksgiving... All I had was some lipton tea and some instant mashed potatos grrrrrr :bored

:clap2: :clap2: Congrats for both of u!!!! a wonderful NSV... I am still trying to get into 18's

10 days post op... I couldnt resist. bicep and triceps today. Also did a lil inner and outer thigh. I have also been walking..

Hey there Telly Girl! I finally got banded on the 9th. Recovering and eventually I will be back in the gym. My work-outs wont be as stringent as yours, but I do plan on doing weight training 3x's a week and cardio 3-5 a week. I started at 278 in Jan, now I am unofficially down to 230. I plan to be at my personal goal of 175 by mar-may, which is gonna take a lot of working out. So... as usual, I will be looking at your posts for my motivation, but I plan on kicking some butt too (my own) in the near future! Good luck in your regimen!
