  1. I did read some of them. I failed to mention that I caught some virus also. So, my dr called back and I advised her of that. She seems to think it may be the virus affecting me. Or that I might need some of the fill removed. Thanks,
  2. I got a filll a week ago. And, I have had some slight heartburn for like 3 days. What's going on?
  3. Imma try the crystal light and grey goose. Yumm. Thanks
  4. I do 45 minutes on the treadmill inclined to 11. 5 times a week. 3 of those days I include weights. I hope this helps..
  5. You're too tight. I had the same thing going on. I went back in the next morning and they took out half of the fill. I am good now. But, 2 weeks later and I think I might need another one.
  6. Thank you all for the information. I really appreciate it.
  7. pvgrl- hello there! I started taking the same Vitamin d pill yesterday. I do hate the sun. But, if it"ll help me I can take 10-15 minutes worth. Thank you for all your helpful information. Good luck on you journey!! :crying:
  8. Thank you so much. I actually have a perscription for Vitamin D2 that I am taking once a week. But, I will definately get some sun in.
  9. OMGosh, thank you for the information. I hate the sun and I try to stay out of it as much as possible. I guess now I will take some time to try and make the most of it. Thank you so much!!!
  10. I was just told that my Vitamin D is low. Anyone else with this issue. If so, please share with me. I am saddened by this. I thought I was doing everything right to get off meds and now I have to add another pill. I am really sad. Any advise would be helpful. Thanks for hearing me out.

    :eek:Hello, I think I have become bored with my current routine. I do the treadmill everyday for 45 minutes then off the 4-5 weight machines. I am usually in the gym for 1.5 hours 5 times a week. Any suggestions on a new cardio workout routine? HELP!!
  12. You need to do more then just walking to see results....
  13. I can definately relate. I am not that far out. I had my second fill 2 weeks ago and lost 14 pounds. Only to gain 10 back in a week. I am not sure if this is possible. But the scale says I have. I am not taking it very well either. I am in the gym 5 times a week 1-2 hours each visit. I ate a few things that I should not have and I had some cocktails too. I never missed the gym. Oh, I got my period too. I was thinking water... IDK...
  14. :eek:HELP ME PLEASE. I think I may of hit a plateau and I am not sure how to break it. Any advice would be helpful... Here we go. I got my second fill almost 2 weeks ago and lost 14 pounds. Then, my period came. I was not eating the best. But I did continue to workout 5 times a week 1.5 hours a day. I thought I'd might be retaining water because I had a few drinks and did not eat correctly. The scale is showing a 10 pound gain and I am going BANANAS..............HELP ME PLEASE:eek:
  15. I need to know the answer too. I do 45 minutes of cardio 5 times a week and weights 3-4 times a week. My stomach is still there and does not appear to be going anywhere. Although, somethings happening I want it to go away NOW.... HELP
  16. What exactly is interval training?
  17. Thank you sooooo much for the information.
  18. 17 to be exact. I work out 5 times a week 1.5 to 2 hours a day.
  19. Yep only 2. I got the first one 06/01/2009 and the second 06/09/2009 I was banded 04/16/2009 then had complications. So, I had another surgery 04/24/2009. They are quickly trying to find my sweet spot since I had problems. But I am fine now and feel great.
  20. I didn't lose any the first time I got a fill. I stayed the same. But a week later I got another 5.5 cc and I have been dropping between 5 and 7 pounds a week.
  21. Hello, If you are vomitting and having reflux you should go in and have some of the fill removed. I just got my second fill and was told if I experiance these 2 things to come back..... I sure hope this helps,:wink:
  22. Well, since no one on here was able to assist me. I took my questions elsewhere. Thanks:thumbdown:
  23. Hello all, I need help with pounds -vs- inches. I work out 5 times a week. Treadmill with incline (5 & 8) for 45 mintues. Then I am off to the weight machines. Leg press and chest press and few others not sure about the name. The scale is slowly moving. And, I am seeinf differnt things in the mirror. Please explain it to me.
  24. My dr said that he will fill me every 3 days until he finds my spot. I have been through so much with 2 surgeries he wants me to get on track as quick and as safe a possible.
  25. I am struggling. I was banded on 04/16/2009 then had surgery again on 04/22/2009 for a hernia. I just need to know what your diet is and did you have any issues before your first fill. I have not been filled and I kinda eat whatever just less of it and try to get in all my protein. I hope I am not messing up. My fill appt is June 1st. HELP ME PLEASE!
