I got 4ccs my first time too! I will be interested to see if you feel any difference (I didnt but I weigh a lot more than you)...also...I bet your weigh in will be nice

Thanks! I love to see your picture posts. That last one in my swimsuit was about 18 pounds ago. i am going to weight (hahah...get it) until I hit a 60 pound loss and post again!

Hey Carrie! Thanks for the friend add. In my signature or the ABOUT ME section you can find the link to my blog. I dont post as much on here as I used to, and blogging is fun bc then you can read all of the other ladies blogs that have been banded. You will learn tons that way!--amy

Thanks! And how was your first fill? I am echoing tmg333

I was just banded three months ago on Jan. 27, 2009. Soon you will be three months out and down pounds and sizes. It will go by in a blink of an eye. There are weeks when I lose none, and then weeks like this one when I lose 6 pounds! Once you start getting your fills and getting restriction, it will be easier! I have a blog Once Upon A Time...In the Land of Cheese and Sunkist. It will tell you more. And then you can see all the other band girls who blog...I am telling you...its great to read other peoples stories and to "talk" to them!

Thanks for the picture comment! You will blink your eyes and have some great "during" pictures before you know it. Have you been banded yet? If so...when? Amy

Thanks so much! I had to make sure you really meant to post that comment on my page! LOL! love your tag line...hope floats.

I "just" walked this 5k...that was goal enough for me! It kept me motivated and set a goal that wasnt weight related. I will probably do a few more before it gets REALLY hot down here. Maybe by next year I will be a runner..or at least a jogger

Thanks Linda. You are the first to tell me that. I had to stop and process it for a few. Before you know it, you will have postop and weight loss pics too!

Your pics are pretty awesome too. I actually was looking at them the other day and I thought that your hubby and my bf have similiar hair cuts

Thanks for the pic comment! Speaking of...I like your new pic with you looking out at the water.

What have you been up too? I havent checked in with you in forever! Did everything finally heal up for you after you had the hernia repair with the surgery? Have you had your first fill yet? Send me a message and keep me updated!

Hola! I was just checkin in with you and wanted to see how everything was progressing!

Hi Lauren! You can tell me you love me all you want! BECAUSE, if you and I are alike...then you are fabulous too! lol...

I'm not kidding.

I dont know if you read my blog or my posts on here, but I have been kinda lax on the posting on here. Congrats on the start of your journey! I hope it is smoooth sailing for you...and if you hit some bumps in the road, at least it will make for a better, possibly funnier story in the end.

Thanks for reading my blog! I love the title of yours! It's awesome to see how we are all progressing together. Let's keep in touch so we can share our "war stories"--amy

It is at 4 today! Woo...Im excited. I am also going to ask him a few questions (if I dont forget them by the time I get there!) I was also thinking I would tell him I am ready for him to poke me...but that made me giggle, and he is cute...so I wont say that! But you can bet I will be thinking it!

Hey Cindy! I didnt know if my blog lets you know when I reply to something you post on it. Most of the time, I reply to your post with another post. I just wanted to make sure you knew that so you didnt think I was ignoring all your encouraging words!

I am doing pretty good. I finally updated my blog. I am back at work today, off the pain meds (because they ran out boo hoo), and feeling no pain really. I am super tired though. I think its a combo of hardly any nutrients going in and the fact my cats kept me up all night. I may go straight to bed when I get home. When are you supposed to go back to work?

HI! Not to worry! I posted yesterday early evening. You can always check my blog too...because I try to post their first. How is everything with you? I am up 10 pounds since surgery yesterday...I must be swollen and full of fluids. I am still not very hungry. I managed to get down a protein shake today. I am working on some water and some broth. Not together of course

Mine is tomorrow. One day before yours. How is everything else going? You know...your picture doesn't make you look like you need lap band at all! LOL...seriously. Are you sure you qualify?

Damn! No recliner. My boyfriend had one when I moved in...vintage 1972...poop brown. I made him get rid of it during Phase 1 of my redecorating. lol...unfortunetly...it gets worse. Our bed is a california king water bed...vintage 1982! Its tall (or Im short)...its tall and hard to get in and out of. So, if I can't, I think I will make my couch into my new home. I assume you are still on clear liquids? Hows that like? The eating part I mean.

And how are you doing? Anything I should know before tomorrow?

Hey! Is it okay if I use your real name on here? LOL, I dont know the rules. So let me know.

Tell me a little more. What are you waiting for? Insurance hang up? If I could figure out how to send you a private message I would send you my email. I need to spend some time playing around on here to figure out how to do things

hahahhaahha....you had already requested me to be your friend...and I just keep rambling on. I blame it on the liquid diet.

okay. i cant figure it out. Will you tell me how to add friends...right after you add me of course!
