  1. Hey...I was banded March 4, 2009...I am going January 3rd for a fill....I started out at 217 and now bounce between 153-156..hope the fill gets me going to loose a little more...love my band!
  2. thanks for all the replies...I'm glad to see that I'm not alone....I use the it in my protein shakes in the mornings too, and I've used the PB2 and loved it, but had to order it online...so when I use the last bit left in this jar, I'm not buying anymore for a while, gotta get over this! I do think I'm going to look for the Davinci syrups, I have heard alot of good things about them too..thanks again for your replies
  3. I have been eating peanut butter, straight from the jar....just eating it off the spoon...today all I ate all day was spoonfuls of it, until I ate supper tonight....what is making me do this!!!
  4. I thought I had a 10 cc realize band, but went for a fill today, and I asked again, they said its 9.5, I am filled now to 7.5, and I am hoping this is where I need to be, the dr. said I should be very close now!

I saw the dr, nutritionist, trainer, and the psych, the dr.'s office was to turn in my paper work, within 2 weeks I got the call from them that I was approved, 1st dr visit 12-23-08, surgery on 3-4-09! I have BCBS state health plan, LOVE them! I am 5"1' and weighed around 206 at my dr visit, I was wearing a size 22, and this morning was able to button some old size 16's~
