I agree with you! i wasnt given option my insurance coverd all of it thats better than coming out of pocket and when your health is going down the hill you do what you can at that time

Girl i know just what you mean! i felt my bones in places i havent felt in a long old time , i thought i was half dead and the stiffness had just begain!..lol:lol:

Great job!! its best to loose slow nad keep it off forever than to loose it fast then re-gain

well my weight lost has slow down i have been the same since nov, but i can say this much im not were i was last year!!!! yahooooooooooo

everyone is doing such a great job!!!! keep up the work i set my self up a new challange for this year.... so far im 46 pounds from my goal and the challange is to get it off by june this year!!! dont know if thats to much but imma work very hard to burn it off 6months to go!!!! any one know any work out i can do to tune this "drip drop" flab from my arms they hang like wings

im doing ok ! loosing very slow but im still hanging in there!

yes im here too! since may 5th '08 im down to 240 from 286 we will get there we just gotta keep on pushin! :cursing:

yes that would be great thanks

i think if i had a fun work out dvd i would work out more i need sum old school stuff like richard simmons anyone have any ideas???

i can use the help real bad . i find myself eating just because i know its there then there are times when i dont wanna eat at all i dont know what this is but i do need some help i was band on the 5th of may of this year and so far lost reasonable weight but this eating habit needs to be poff gon! i cant go to a gym (personal reasons) so all i do is walk at least 3-4 miles 3 times a week. i think i can do alot better if i had a buddy ? or join a team? theres not local band support group so im kinda on my own right now.

yup my doctor told me the same thing then i came on this site and my mind was blown but i must admit when i was eating like that i stayed full very long ate very little and the weight came off. when i ate soups mushy stuff i got hungry more often . 05-05-08 band 4cc band high 328 current 248 goal 190

for me its been a roller coster one min i loose, stop loosing, then gain, i never know what to expect when i get on the scale so i dont bother as much, but i went from a size 26w before sugery and now im almost a 16!! i can fit into them i just cant buckle them yet! haha so i guess over all im doing ok i just wish i can do something to help tone these saggin arms any ideas anyone ?

you can . when i had my fill (in a 4cc band) i got a 3cc then went back the next week and got another 1cc thats the max. i know me i know what i can do to food...lol and i have been ok with it so i guess it depends on your doctor

howdy ya'l! i was just thinking of joining curves but wanted to know if anyone who has had the lapband sugery had any problems after joining (port pain, n/v) ? want a few oppions before joining winter coming up and i need to find a place to get this lazy body moving so i can see thepounds come off like they "use to" in the begaining.:thumbup:

with me being in the medical field i see patients come in that had the bypass very ugly ( feeding bags), gain greentothe intest i mean its either gonna work for you or against you, you wont know until you had it, after looking into the band its reversable less invasive less side effects and the weight comes off slow (for me very slow i mean malassess slow..lol) but al least it the healthy way.

i only buy as i need, when i notice my jeans fit loose then ill gio try on the next size down i try to find jeans that streatch so i dont have to buy to soon OR you can go to the good will you be surprise on what you find there and it wont cost you alot but im not gonna lie when tax season comes im buyin me 4 out fits to wear gotta show off every now and then it keeps my spirit up..lol

thanks everyone, the Doc request another CT test w/ contrast and is sending me to a speailist ( neuoroligist ) naw i cant spell...lol to see whats going on, he said with me loosing weight my body is trying to ajust, being that i am a dibetic he says i may be going through "dumping syndrom" sugar bottoms out to fast but hopefully they can get to the bottom i need to walk and move but no ones letting me out of there sight and i cant go back to work til im cleard so ya know the stress level just went up a notch.

you go gurl! im right behind you in a 16 ... my goal was to go from a 26 to a 16! now i gotta change that goal to a 12 it looks like ill be a 12 before getting under 200 but hey thats fine with me...once again congrates:thumbup:

Everyone is doping great keep it up!:smile2:

Greetings ladies! any one know the latest on the local group meetings ?

my choice's are better, i cant walk .last week i had sumsort of spell and was rushed to the hospital via@ ambulance my vitals was stable they did CTof the brain i will follow up with the Dc tomorrow my body been really buggin latley. the surgon says my body trying to adjust and no walking or anything til all test comes back. so keep me in prayer please

well you go gurl!!!! my insurance company say they will cover tummy tucks & breast lifts but not arms , my arms are the ones i rather have done 1st so i guess i will pay out of pocket. i just got banded in may of this yr so im going to wait for 2yrs and see all what i need.
