Hey Everyone. It has been far past anniversaries and goals and dates. I hope everyone's journey is going well and checking in to say howdy. My progress has been pretty good for the most part. I definately feel a great deal better with 80# off. Cheers to you!!! Amaltha

Ok good I am not the only one...so any ideas what causes it?

yeah about the wardrobe...so since I got laid off the funds I was going to use for new wardrobe went bye bye. Soon enough I will get some things that fit pretty awesome. Thank you all for your well wishes... Question...does anyone else have this feeling: Sometimes if I am hungry and have a pretty empty stomach my port tends to be a little sore...but as soon as I eat that goes away...anyone else have that?
-
Just what I wrote on your page (and from my blog)...it was a trip for sure. Again you can contact me any time you like. Good luck!

almost in my thirties...had my band for a year. Today I just crossed into the normal BMI which I haven't been since my teens. No more overweight or obese!!! so I am doing pretty good. I would do it again in a heart beat

For me I tell them off the bat. Typically, we are eating dinner at a restaurant and they are staring at how much I take home in a doggie bag. I am the type of person who wears my heart on my sleeve if they can't handle who I am with or with out lappy the lap band then they probably are someone I shouldn't be dating anyway. Those are just my thoughts though...

So today was my biggest milestone yet...I think. Today for the first time since the 1990's I am in a "normal" BMI range and not in the "overweight" or "obese" category!!!! YAY. I am not quite to goal but now I think I am in fine tune mode instead of drop drop drop mode. I am so excited. Thanks to everyone who is on here and so supportive!

I am glad to have helped. Just know it is trial by error. You will NOT hear from him ever again. I have not been contacted by them once since the surgery. That was sort of disappointing. It is interesting you wrote me today...today was the day that I jumped into the "normal" BMI. This is the first time since the 90's I haven't been overweight or obese.
Good luck you will be fine. Contact me anytime if you need me.

PS...don't be shocked if he puts the port a little too far to the left. Apparently he is notorious for it. =)

That is awesome...I have had similar reflections. A year ago there was a completely different me in energy. I am very thankful for this site as at first I had many questions and there were lots of people here willing to listen or give some good advice. Good luck and I know you will be in a bikini!!!! (PS we went down the exact same amount...70 in a year...GREAT for you!)
