Yes, I heard that too. Thanks for the support, it means a lot.

Thanks for the support. I needed that.

Yeah your right. I just need to be more patient, work out more and eat more healthy and most of all to be patient! I have my next fill next monday. Hope it does the trick a little more. I want to get there already. There goes the no patience thing again. Thanks for the support! It really helps.

Hey there,

I just got my first fill on monday and I'm a bit upset. I'm getting used to the whole chewing really good so that the food doesn't get stuck in my chest thing, but I still don't have restriction. At least I don't feel like I do. I think I should give it a chance but I am feeling like regretting getting the band instead of the gastric because of the maintanence after. When is a good time for the next fill? Should I give it a chance to set in a few weeks first?

I am sorry about your friend and marriage probs. Take it one day at a time. things will get better for sure. We both just need patience. I know how you feel though about the not losing weight and relationship issues. Tell me about it. Stay strong.

I have not found any protein drinks that I like other than Carnation Instant Brekfast which does not have much protein and has sugar (I can't find sugar free ones).

Do you like the Isopure or do you have to get used to it?

You have lost a lot of weight. I can't wait to lose more weight already. I need to be patient though. First fill on monday.

I'm an 80's music lover too! You look great already! I got banded 02-24-09. How much have you lost so far?

Wow you look great! How much have you lost so far?

Thanks for the info. Congrats on the weight loss. Good luck to you too.

Sounds like a good deal with you and your hubby on teh same bandwagon. I wish my boyfriend would try to eat healthy with me. Its so hard when we eat, he brings the unhealthy stuff and I kinda follow. I have been bad lately, but I can't blame him, it's my fault.

Wow, you look great! I can't belive you lost 150 lbs already! Can I ask you, are you eating healthy and exercising religiously? I am having trouble with that. I just got banded 02-24-09 at Cedars Sinai in L.A. and I am having trouble losing weight.

Hey there,

When did you get your surgery and congrats on losing so much weight already! I too have been a bit lazy lately with working out and eating right. I feel guilty but it's so hard, when my boyfriend is a bad influence and lets me eat what I want. I know I should control it. It's hard sometimes.

When did you get banded? I was banded 02-24-09. First fill 04-11-09.

Hey there Sommer. I was banded on 02-24-09. Wow, you lost 23 lbs already! That is great! What is your secret? I only lost 10 lbs so far. ARe you working out and eating right? I kinda fell off the wagon. Have been eating not so great foods.

Hello,

I am 5 '1, 248 lbs, just got banded 02-24-09. I just wanted to know. I know it's common sense, but I think I just need a little nudge in my behind from someone other than my boyfriend. I lost 10 lbs and have not lose any more for the last 3 weeks now. My first fill is in 2 weeks. I have only been working out about 1-2x a week on my Wii Fit and my boyfriend keeps telling me I have to work out more than that to lose.

Is it true that you lose more once you have your fill? Should I start really kicking ass and working out hard already 4 weeks out? Well 5 weeks on tuesday? Thank you.

I started at 247 lbs and have lost about 10 lbs so far, but I got baded on 02-24-09. I have to lose about 100 lbs. or more if possible with exercise.

62 lbs is great! I am happy for you. How do you feel losing so much weight?

Aww thanks.

When did you get banded?
