I know the feeling! I gain some times too. What I do if I feel like I'm getting out of control I go on liquids for a couple of day to get the band back in order. It's a constant struggle but I'm here to help you let me know if I can!

I lived on the east side in 88-90 but I pretty much grew up on the south side. Have you gotten the band yet?

I see your surgery date is tomorrow I hope all is well. I'm so happy for you your on your way.

i think it is very important to follow everything your doctor says because they know best you will eventually find out what works for you with the band because everyone is different. I decided to get the band because I struggled with weight all my life constantly going up and down. I think it is the best thing I could of did for myself I feel so much better and my asthma is doing great. I feel if you can do it do it I think you will be really glad u did because it's a great tool to help u loose weight if you are serious and willing to work out and do what you need to do.

I was so excited to get it done that I wasn't worried about anything else. I never had surgery before this so it was my first time under the knife. I knew it would change my life and that was all I was worried about. I was so tired of diet after diet loosing and gaining back double I just wanted something that would help me and I am so glad I did it. It was the best thing I have done for myself you have to work hard with it but if your consistant and follow what you need to follow you will do fine. It's amazing the amount of food I can eat now I didn't eat a lot before but I ate all the wrong foods and ate late at night.

I'm doing good working on my last 25 but i'm not to sure if I want to lose it. I feel like I might be to small.

I'm doing great down 28 pounds and feeling good. I will start my regular diet the end of this week and I get my first fill 2/5. How are you doing?

I'm getting in those last supers now trying to get all the things I won't be able to eat after surgery. But everything is going good.

I'm getting the realize band my doctor changed bands. She said it's easier to put in but pretty much the same as the lap band. This will be my first surgery to so I don't know what to expect but I sure am ready. My friend had the lap band put in, in may and she has lost like 70 pounds already so I figure it's definetly worth a try. How much weight have you lost so far?

I'm not exactly sure I tried them on in the store and my sister talked me into getting them. They're not that high.

I'm pretty much finished with all the testing I have to have my follow up with the sleep study dr. Then do my bloodwork and then meet back up with my doctor for a date.

I'm so happy for you I know it can be tough but we will be able to do this.

I'm so happy for you keep up the good work. I'm doing good the surgery went well. I'm down 28 pounds and feeling good clothes are getting loose and my body feels alot better.

I'm so happy for you, your on your way. I can't wait for my appt. next week so I can get my date.

If you don't mine me asking what kinds of foods did you eat durning the mushie stages. I can't really stomach puree foods so my choices are limited.

It's natural to be scared I think I was more excited than anything to be scared. All I can say is follow the doctors directions to the T. don't listen to everything everyone tells u because everyone has different experiences. The paine wasn't that bad for me it only lasted a couple days for me then I had gas pain in my shoulders. Just hit me up anytime u have questions I will help in anyway I can.

LOL I have had a couple of sips but I was scared to drink before my 6 month mark.

LOL! I'm so happy for you. Your on your way Congrats!!!!!

No not yet I'm still going through all the testing. What about you?

No that's true My mom is like that she cooks all day and really doesn't eat after all the cooking. I plan on helping her cook and relaxing as well with the family. I just got a fill yesterday so I won't be eating to much myself. I just look forward to family time. How are things going with you?

Ok I wasn't sure if I could eat some of those things. My problem is that I can't eat mushy things I've always had a problem with that consistancy. Thanks this has really helped me.

Ok what would u like to know.

Right 6 days now and we will be on with the new life!!!! I'm so excited I don't know what to do.

Sure that would be great I will give u my number.

Thank for the picture comment. I got those boots @ Macy's last winter.
