  1. So how did your appt go??? I too am a patient of Doctor OBriens!! I would love to meet some of you Sioux Falls gals!!!!
  2. Started Zumba class tonight. I really enjoy it and it is a good workout I think it will be a great addition to my fitness regime!!!
  3. Starting Zumba classes next week.nn2X per week. Will continue with 2 days weight training and 20 minutes cardio
  4. I am so glad I found this thread. I think I may actually ask for a slight unfill on Tuesday as much as I HATE the thought of it.
  5. I have been experiencing reflux at night and it is terrible and my band is not too tight in fact I really need a fill and am scheduled for one on Tuesday. Being aware that this is one signal of a too tight bad I have been a little leary that getting a fill will only increase the reflux. I am 2 years out and my mother (never overweight) has suffered with AR for most of her adult life.
  6. I am 2 years post op .... have lost 101 pounds and recently have been experiencing acid reflux at night. I cannot imagine living with it long term UGH!!!!! I finally broke down and bought some Prilosec OTC and finally today after taking it for 3 days feel like ME again. The nights awake and miserable were wearing on me. Anyone develop AC GERD like this?
  7. I am 2 years out and was not aware of this tip! THANK YOU!!!!!! I hope to never get stuck again but if/when I do I will do this ....well in the event that I am home!!
  8. It is always refreshing to find a movie we can watch with out family without concern of what they might hear or see!!!
  9. I too have done WDW years ago and discontinued the program for similiar reasons as noted above. I agree that healthier eating and excercise are important however do like her concept of of eating when hungry and stopping when comfortably full something my band helps me to do...
  10. Did you note that I had my surgery in 2007 I am over a year out? I have considered my self to be a fairly slow but consistent loser. I generally lose a half pound a week with some more and some less. I have had a couple of plateaus as well. I try to change up my excercise routine as I get bored pretty easily right now I am doing "Walk away the Pounds" and enjoy that!!
  11. I am new here but so excited to have a forum that is Christian. What a huge blessing!! I look forward to getting to know you better. I was banded on Feb 1 2007 and am justabout 70 pounds down with 36 to go!!!
