Too Fat To Fish

hey was wondering how u are doing.... things are staying about the same just after xmas for me hope things are well

hey hope xmas was good for u and yours...i did not to bad stayed about the same weight over xmas never lost but never expected to u know....my weight lost is kinda differant i go for 3-4weeks not losing any then one day wake up and i lose ten to fifteen pounds over night...its kinda tuff at the start but i must admit exercise is the best thing u can do...i wish i could get going on that department not doing so well at that....how about u???

i had no restriction through xmas too so i am so glad i did not gain....i read on here that the lapband is just a tool and boy are they ever right...and yes u will find your way with is lapband thing and it will get better

Hey now...ya my wife did get it done too she got hers done in may...onmi in regina is cheaper thats cool....you can go back to linda pretty much when u feel like it...BUT...she will take it slow...no ten hour drive...3 fills aand i am at 6cc that getting close to sweet spot...

Ya it was not cheap i got about two thousand off my surgery because they were having a special deal on in june when i got mine done..you cant think too much about the money i didnt care i was at a bad place last spring i had to quit my job i was hurting so bad or lose wieght u should not regret having the surgery the sooner you get going and eating right things will go well for u

how much weight do you have to lose? are you tall? i am 5"11 and was 404 when i started this...bmi was f'n way up there that was for sure....back to the money thing i said to the wife if it costs me this much and i only lose 50lbs was it worth it and i said yes i have never been small i am at the same weight i was 12 years ago when i got married so i am happy i sit all day and drive truck so ido NOT work out i hope when i lose enough weight i can start....makes me kinda made that i have wasted all this time not working out...just think how much weight i could have lost if i did

Hey pablo ya linda mcphee is great. she is pretty good and gives good advice she has had her band for 2 1/2 years now so what better person to ask...linda gave me like 2.5 cc on my first fill...i am up too 6 cc and have had three fills....think i had 1.5 in my band when i came home from surgery....everyone is differant but cant believe the 1cc for first fill

Hey dont want to jump on the maples bashing band wagon but i have not been back to maples since i had surgery....they started using the nurse right after i had mine....my wife and i use the fill nurse we found here....she is great...never felt the need to drive 12 hours for nothing....sorry to here about that....so heres what u do....two choises wait about a week and go get another fill in regina....or wait till after xmas to go see her....not sure what u want to do.....not much fun at xmas learning how to eat and PB 'n all over the place and trust me u will throw up basicly learning how to eat again...send me a personal message for details on the fill nurse if u need her.....good luck....things r going to change:):)
