  1. I was thinking of doing the Phen as well, but the truth is if your band is adjusted properly(when you're actually losing weight) there is no need for it. I lost 40 lbs in about 5 month with 3 consecutive visits to my surgeon and keeping a close eye to the volume of food I was eating. The moment I notice I was able to eat more, I would call and schedule an adjustment. So far, so good. I was stuck for very long time and now back to losing, I'm so happy
  2. Hahahaha...(blushing)
  3. By the way, for those who are interested. A lot of these meds that get rejected by insurance companies actually need a prior authorization, its just one additional call from your doctor's office. In many cases you can get an exception for that drug.
  4. I am feeling much, much better too and was banded on 10/06/08. Still a little sore but nothing compare to what it us to be. I have lost 25 lbs. Isn't exciting??? What a journey, so much change, it weird too.
