  1. HI I am having trouble adding my doctor who is not on the list. 1. One time the box asking me to enter in the Dr.s name appeared, I filled it out, hit Save. But it didn't save it. 2. I clicked on Review to click on the link to add drs name, but never got the box to fill in again. I use Google Chrome by the way. Could you add the doctors name for me, its Dr. Ariel Ortiz, OCC in Tijuana, MX Thanks, morrisong
  2. Banded in 2009. Took me four fills to feel restriction. I am perplexed why, but glad it finally happened. I could eat a Thanksgiving dinner after my first three fills. Then this last one-restricted! I am so glad I didn't give up.
  3. I found a list of free websites, and checked them out myself. Some do require you to at least register with the website. I hope this helps you! 1.Self Magazine online has some free exercise vidoes: http://www.self.com/ 2. This website has some free yoga vidoes, and other types of exercise videos. You must register, but you will have access to some vidoes. See: http://www.slimtree.com/ 3. This website will give you one free exercise video if you 'like' them on Facebook. They have dance exercise videos: http://www.workoutsondemand.com/ 4. This website has some videos as well as some exercise regimens that you can print out: http://www.workoutz.com/ 5.This is a free work out came, similar to Wii Fi: (but you don't need Wii Fi) http://www.fitbyfun.com/index 6.These may be free as well and includes dance video's: http://www.exerciset...t-videos/dance/ Have fun!
  4. I have been on a low carb high protein diet for 9 days. I have had stomach pain in my upper abdomen and nausea. When I eat it gets worse. When I don't eat the pain goes away. The stomach pain doesn't move around, stays in one place. Don't have diahreah or constipation or abnormal passing of gas. It hurts bad enough that I have to lay down and I have a reasonable tolerance to pain. I am going to call the doctor on Monday, but have any of you had that reaction from eating a low carb/high protein diet? Good news, I have lost 10 pounds in 9 days.
  5. Okay, here's one for you. I was banded one year ago exactly and I have never felt the "sweet spot" of restriction. I have a 11cc band and have had 2 fills now equalling a total of 9.4cc's. one at 3.4cc and another at 6cc. Have any of you had to be filled to the max in order to feel restriction? I know I need to do better on not drinking and eating at the same time. I give myself a C+ on my efforts. But when I do the right thing, I still havent had restriction. Decision to have surgery: weighed 232 Pre-surgery weight: 214 pounds Surgery: July 2009 Post-surgery weight: 199 pounds 1st fill 3.4cc: Sept 2009: 202 pounds 2nd fill under fluro October 2009: 205 pounds, no stretched pouch or leak, 6CC 1 year later: 214 pounds
