Hi! how r u? My name is trina and I just want to say congrats!( for things to come) I am from Lufkin, Tx not far from u. How did do through the storm? Well, I hope everything is well. I got banded on the 5 of june and things aren't going as well as I hoped. i get another fill on monday. hope it does the trick. stay in touch!

hi, how r u? my name is trina and i was banded on june 5 08. how do you sign in for this forum? well, im from lufkin tx and i come to houston quite often. im a registered nurse and mommy of 3 girls. i am also 28. iv lost 34 lbs so far, give or take 2. well, maybe i'll hear from u later. good luck and God bless!

Hey! Well, i have not had the kind of success i was hoping but im doing well and am loosing it to where it is porportioned equally. I have been a little discouraged that im not at my goal weight by now but i have had some difficulties and everyone is different.

hey texan!, my name is trina and i am from lufkin. im just on the site and seeing different people. hope no one is offended. hopefully i can make a few friends to share my journey with. take care. banded june 5 08.

What i meant was that they got smaller in size. I started out as a 46DD and now i am a 38D. They look a lot smaller to me but i guess they still fit me because i have gotten a little smaller.

lookin good buddie!

Just wanted to say hi and deep the faith and dont give up. We gotta stick to gether, if u wanna talk, post me, if not post me n e ways! Lol!

hey girl! how much weight have u lost being a year out? Im totally jealous!

Hey!, i was banded also on june 5 08. Hows it goin for ya? Hopefully good. Talk to ya soon.

I dont even know where this pic may end up but i was trying to add an album. Guess im more of a computer dumbass than i thought!lol

congrats on being banded! I really hope ur exxperience is good. Remember to chew, chew, chew!

Thanks! I need all the help/encuragement i can get! What kind of foods did u eat at first. water and so forth

the hardest part for me has been drinking soda. i had stopped when i had my surg date last jan 08, i was banded june 08 and started back drinkin soda in feb 09. it keeps weight on u. also my "good time" to eat is at 1130pm till 200am because i work nights and my sleep time is in the day time. i guess its been ok.

hey! my progress is suckey right now. ima go in for a fill next monday. i hate it!

not losing any weight right now. trying not to get depressed. hey, since ur the expert, i cant figure how to get my pics to upload. im sure im doing somethin wrong. any suggestions besides read a book?! ill probably come back on sometime tonite at work.

not doing so well but im trying. ill let u know how my apt goes mon.

u go girl!! gettin ready to go to work. hadn't been since Christmas eve! I never stay off work that long! feels pretty good though. Well ill hit u back tonight because im sure there'll be a dull moment!

hope ur date goes well gurl! im trying to figure out how to upload pics and make my little space more appealing. LMAO! (laughin my ass off!) N E WAYS, yeah Lufkin was hit pretty bad. I did not have any damage but my kids playhouse nearly got taken out by a big oak tree, courtesy of my neighbors! My hot tub has leaves and dirt stuck on the cover and my deck is a mess! i guess that's why somebody invented rakes and broom, blowers and such! Im blessed and I know it cause i could be homeless. You know i have had issues with my band, not having restriction. I have had 5 fills now and I can eat anything that don't eat me first. When I went to the doc last monday I told him and ask him to do my fills differently and he didn't. he checked my band to make sure i did not have a leak and i didn't of course. He said that i have 5 cc in it but when he aspirated i only had a little over 3. he then added 1 cc. don't feel like he added a thing! So i don't know how to approach him and let him know he needs to be more aggressive. He is very conservative! I've thought about gettin someone else for fills but i dont know. what do u think? as a nurse, i have no prob speakin my mind but now ima pt. It's frustrating b/c Im going on 4 months and as much as i exercise i should be loosing more! I feel like i did all this for nothing and i dont expect it to come off overnite but i expected more. oh well, i just got off from work so i better go before i fall asleep and mess up my daughters' computer and i don't want to hear her mouth! She is a smart 5 year old! I hope all is well with you. if I figure how to upload instead of changing my profile pic, ill put more on! God Bless and take care!

What's up? I'm just now experiencing the hard stuff!!! I know, i had my band in june but my first doc was not filling appropriately and i wasn't losing any weight! Now, i go to a different doc and i now experience true restriction and things are going well. i will cont to update you and let u know how things are going and to check in on you. i c u work in the med field and so do I! I'm a rn/charge nurse on a critical care floor.ttyl

pretty pic!
