Hi, I'm Judy. I buy Body Fortress Advanced whey Protein at Walmart. Don't mind it at all. Please remember to take your measurements. I didn't and would love to know how many inches I've lost. Good luck & Good Health.

Happy Bandaversary. It's been a God send for me. Have a great New Year.

I had it done two years ago and have done well. I needed to lose weight to have a very large hernia repaired. It's on the horizon. I will keep you in my prayers.

Confused too. I've lost 137 lbs and I'm in a 14 loose. Years ago (35) I did WW and lost 62lbs weighed 141 and was in a 12. Hats off to you = great job.

Hello Everyone. Sorry I've been missing in action. Congrats JT. Way to go. I weighed in at 171 this am. I've been doing well since my unfil. No reflux and no getting sick. Also been maintaining. Had been floating between 174 -172 for the past month, so I though I was where I should be. Hope to lose that last dang lb before Christmas. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Weighed in at 174 this am. Down 1.5. Went to the Dr. yesterday am good news is that the band didn't slip. It was too tight. Nothing was getting through it. That's why I was throwing up all the time and had reflux. They took out 2 cc and I feel wonderful. I can actually eat and keep it down. No reflux last night. Just have to be careful not to get carried away. I don't understand the logic of how the band got too tight because I got too thin.

Weighed 177 this AM. 2 lbs this week. I leave for home on Wed and hope to see the Dr next week. I have terrible reflux and seem to be up-chucking daily. Not good.

Good Job BG. FYI - I gained .5 lbs this week. jeeez

Welcome Prairie Dawn. I live in Gardner.

[ do I eat a normal breakfast that morning or is it better to have something light or nothing at all?? Thanks for the info! I've only had two fills, but I took a protein shake with me for after.

Well, I evidently forgot to post last week. 8/13/10 - 182 lbs loss of 2.5 8/20/10 - 181 lbs loss of 1 I'll take it.

I lost 3 lbs this week. Current weight is 184.5. I've got one pair of pants that fit. Now when I find cute clothes at the flea, they are all sizes I used to wear.

I'm a year out and just started with reflux. Anybody take anything for it. The no pill crap causes a problem. The prescription dissolve things are costly.

Hey KCers. I've been in Jersey for 5 weeks. Having a great time. Will be back in KC in the fall. Swimming. walking the Boardwalk and doing major yard work has helped my WL. Talk soon.

It's so easy to find old habits. But glad you're doing OK. I'm in Jersey for the summer. Getting alot of exercise. New knee is doing well. Take care.

Hello from Jersey. Arrived last Saturday, but just got connectivity. I did it. I'm in "Onederland" finally. Weighed in at 195 yesterday. Been able to get around much more on the new knee and most of the swelling is gone. Hope all is well with everyone.

Great weight loss everyone. I'm 203 lbs today. Bad Month. Had knee replacement on 5/11. (gained 7 lbs of fluid). We had a tornado hit our street on 5/12. What a mess. No one was hurt, but 7 out of 14 families on our street are displaced for 3-6 months. We were hit the least. $5k damage to both cars. Needed a new roof, new siding, new garage door, windows and ceiling in guest bedroom. Looking forward to Jersey Shore for summer recoup. Sorry I've been gone so long.

Hello KC People. Just have to ask. Did anyone see the street in Gardner that was hit by the MicroBurst?? IT'S MY STREET. There are 6 families without livable homes. We were blessed. Only need new roof, siding, garage door and some windows. I was in the hospital getting a new knee when it happened. I came home Friday to TV cameras. (and I thought it was for me). Did gain 7 lbs in 3 days though. Good news is that it's the swollen knee. Need about a week to catch up on all the posts. Jersey

Great job BG. - It is good to be home. Weighed in at 205.5. (1.5 down) Getting closer to Onederland every week.

Hey KC folks. Greetings from San Antonio. Heading off to El Paso today. Will be back in KS on Tuesday. Yesterday was a GREAT day. I hit the 100 lbs lost mark.

Greetings from San Antonio. I've been on vacation since last Saturday. This morning in Galveston I weighed in & guess what??? 100 lbs lost. 209 lbs. 10 away from Onederland. Could not wait until tomorrow to post it. We're leaving in the am for El Paso, so not sure if I'd get the chance. Have a wonderful week. I know I will.

Scale said 213. That's 2 lb this week.

Finally!!!!. I broke the streak. For the past month I've been playing see saw with 2 lbs. I'm 215 this week. Yee Haw.
