    Zumba?

    I think that depends on your doctor I had to wait 3 weeks to even go back to work I started walking first the got back into it Ask your doctor
  2. I use to be able to see my port like a big lump sticking out if my stomach. Then one day I went to get an un fill because I was getting sick allot Thought I was too tight and here my port flipped and I had to get it replaced and my doctor put a smaller one in. You can't see it now but you cN feel it

    Zumba?

    I love Zumba I can go every night It's a great workout that feels like your dancing to great Latin music for 55mins It's the best thing that ever started I have been going for over 5 1/2 years I had to stop twice for surgery and believe me it makes a difference in my stomach thighs butt etc I met so awesome people and made some very close friends. There is nothing like it But you have to find a good instructor that makes a difference. And it's Zumba not a jazz class Been to different classes to try other instructors out and you know when you find the right one For me it's Latin not jazz I love it. It's the best Do it you will be hooked
  5. Congrats to everyone!!! I hit my goal a few years ago then gained almost twenty pounds back Might not seem like allot but it's a size and it freaked me out Had to get back on track with food and working out again I couldn't do it I tried and was getting so frustrated so I went and got a small fill Back to my protein shakes and small portions I'm not going backwards I just cant

    Catching a Cold

    If you feel that sick and your feeling pain call your doctor... Question : Has anyone had a cold where the mucus that drops and goes into your stomach acts like food so when you eat you end up getting sick ?? It happen to me several times thru the years And now it's doing it again because I have sinuses It's hard to eat plus I feel full Ugh

    Am I Too Tight?!

    Are you doing ok now?? I hate when you slime. It's so nasty lol it really is I always feel everyone looks at me that they think all I do is puke. Drives me nuts I carry a bag with me all the time just in case I had little fill the other day. I think it's like 7cc Full now. I am still able to eat but little at a time N have thrown up a couple if times. But doing ok now I needed to do this I have to get back where I was before. Gained a little and I don't need to keep gaining I went from a size 20 to size 16 for a long time and now a size 8. But I want to be at size 6. That's my goal. After the first I'm back at Zumba and this power class I take. N walking Have a great night

    Am I Too Tight?!

    Hey Hockeymom Did you try and get it out whatever was stuck? I'll have one piece of meat stuck n that will ruin everything I eat or drink later it's the worse This is gross but I stick my finger down my throat n throw it up. I hate it but it gets it out for me I can't eat red meat steak etc I can eat a half of burger that's it. I can't digest red meat I'm getting a very small fill today I have been able to eat way too much without filling full Time to tighten up until summer I'm thinking Plus my daughter is getting married in October I'll be restricted. But I need a jump start on eating right again. Hope you feel better Lisa

    Am I Too Tight?!

    Something sounds wrong I hope you find out I know when I eat too fast n don't chew. I'll puke Can't eat sandwiches. But then sometimes I can So strange I have thrown up allot in the past several years now I go back to my surgeon Dec 26th. Had my gallbladder out I feel allot better Now. But I still get sick. More when I'm getting a cold I'm tempted to get another fill. I want to lose like 20 lbs. I put that in over the past 3 years I'm afraid it will keep going My daughter wedding is coming need a dress n want something hot lol

    5th Band Fil

    Mis73. Thanks for all that very important what you wrote and that link. I so needed to read that I have been banded for almost six years but I see myself heading back to my old ways. Time to get a grip I was going to get another fill. I always feel that gets me back in track. But then I'm tight n can't eat yogurt and smoothies. Because I go tight to get myself back I really do not want to feel that way again But i need to get control I'm going to try and get back to eating small portions again Small dish n see if I can hold out about three to four hours. Plus I love sweets something else I need to control I lost my weight all of it but thru the years I gained twenty two back n stayed there I want it off Thanks for the link and the words they meant allot Lisa

    Am I Too Tight?!

    Sometimes I can't eat yogurt either and it is more In the morning That's my worse time and one of the important times I so have to slow down when I eat and I have to chew chew chew. I was always a fast eater. And after a while all my bad habits show their nasty head again Now I have to stop and pay attention Even almost at six years I still have issues. Old habits don't die that's for sure. You have to keep trying and trying ugh
  14. It's so hard I do good then I don't Had my gallbladder out and going back to the doctors for a follow up. I might get a fill I gained like only 20 lbs to maybe 25 lbs back and if course I can't get myself back to doing the right thing. Knowing you can get a fill to help Is great and not so great. Because your suppose to be learning to eat right and change your habits So hard But it's been years now and I am happy at were I am. Sounds stupid over 20 lbs but 20 lbs can turn into 30 lbs and so on So you have to be worried I hope all is well with you. Cancer is not a good thing. I only had to deal with Melanoma. My cousins breast cancer and watched my dad die with his liver not pretty Hope your doing well. And keep up what your doing Everyday as we know it is a struggle We are suppose to get snow today but our snow and yours. Is very different People here in Jersey think they will die one day if they don't run to the store lol. It's pretty funny In glad I came back in here I still need support I think I will always need it
  15. I'm tempted to get another fill to help Not sure what to do My daughter is getting married in Oct I like to drop this weight I gained It's only around 20 lbs and I am sure if I watched myself and got serious I can do it. But then I know if I get a fill it forces me to really do it Just don't know if I feel like being restricted again I go to see my doctor Dec 26 th for my follow up I has my gallbladder removed Oh decisions decisions lol Do you still get filled??
