Hi Morovis88....Excellent...You've done amazing!!!!! WOW.....I'm still trying to get to 140...After Alaska I'd gained like 7 pounds and now I'm going back down again. So now I'm at 169 and trying to get to 140...What a struggle, but I'll eventually make it, I HOPE! LOL!!! Keep it up. You'll see, the looks from your hubby and outsiders will become MORE & MORE! It's amazing! So excited for you!

Hi Morovis88....My father is Puerto Rican, my mom is Cuban. So I'm half and half! LOL!!!! CONGRATS on your surgery, you will do great. It's a process. For me it was SUPER slow, but so WORTH IT.....I thank God everyday I did it.
Lacasst....Thank you so much. I had surgery 12/30/08. I have lost 62 pounds. Went from 226 to 164, Size 18/20 to Size 12, just feeling FABULOUS every day! I am still in the process of losing. I have about another 25 to go. If you want to see more pics and vids, see my youtube channel: YouTube - dlmyvette's Channel

Hi.....Well, let me see, this is how it went down. I got a fill 1/2 a cc, that was too much, so they took out .25....So far I've been good, but today I had a BAD episode. It all started when we went to the mall to eat at the food court, SARKU. I had chicken and veggies, but that was giving me trouble, but didn't throw up or anything. Then for dinner my husband wanted pizza so I had two small slices on my plate and couldn't even get through one before I had the MAJOR problem!!!!! It was bad! I'm ok now though! Good luck and don't worry! I'm sure you'll be fine. Right now I'm between 175 and 176 and I really need to get down to 140, but I've been maintaining and not losing! SHEESH!

Hi.....Thanks for stopping by....I'm happy to hear that you're almost at the 50lb mark. Right now I'm stuck at 50 and haven't moved since December. I was contemplating getting another fill, but I'm not sure about it yet. We'll see what happens! Good luck. I'll keep you posted when the scale starts moving down again! LOL!

Hello....I'm doing great. I'm down 36 pounds now and very happy!!!!! I know it's not as much as other ppl, but I'm thrilled! Feeling good, and continue losing weight, slow, but steady! I'm super thrilled I got the band and don't regret it one bit so far! I have to upload more pics...I recently took another trip on my anniversary so I want to upload some new pics so ppl can see my progress as far as how I'm looking now.
So how are you???

Fluffy Jen....How's it going?? Been thinking about you. I made my 25 pound mark today. I am thrilled. This week I had my 4th fill up to 5 cc's now and FINALLY, I'm feeling a noticeable difference, so I expect this month to be a BIG ONE for me! Can't wait to hear back from you.

Hi.....26 pounds??? That's excellent!!! CONGRATS. So far I'm only down 14 pounds. This all happened within the first week of being banded. Now I'm kind of just sitting there. I go for my first fill 2/4 so I'm excited about that. I also started going to the gym so that's good too. Right now I can pretty much eat anything. I just do it in small quantities, nothing like I was doing before banding. In the morning, I've been having protein shakes, lunch I have some chicken and dinner maybe a boiled egg with tomatoe. Not such an exciting menu. I've had bread, rice, veggies, pasta (not a lot), as long as I stop when I'm satisfied I haven't had any bad episodes. How about you? What are you eating and how much? Oh...I've made it a habit to serve myself on a small plate.

Thank you for the picture comment. I appreciate your words. I've been banded 3 weeks today and have only lost 13 pounds. I'm not disappointed I'm just looking forward to my fill in 2 weeks! Need to lose this weight.
