  5. thank you for that! that is just what i needed to read this morning. very helpful and truly appreciated.
  6. I haven't had that experience.....yikes! I hope you feel better soon. take care.

  8. I just went on a 7 day Caribbean Cruise. It was fantastic. I was so worried that I would gain weight. My third fill didn't do anything for me, and it was right before we left on the cruise. I tried to watch what i ate- but it was hard at times- so much good food. I also drank with my meals at times (red wine). However, when I weighed myself this morning (now that I am home and have the only scale that I believe......) and I had lost two pounds!!!!! Such a relief.:w00t:. I have my 3 month follow up appointment with my surgeon on Wednesday- Iam hoping that he will give me another fill then- i want to find that "sweet spot". God Bless- hope everyone is doing well.

  10. I agree with you totally- the best and hardest thing I have ever done!!!!!
  11. I agree with the others. this is the best thing i could have done for myself/my health. It is still hard work, but worth every minute of it. It does take changes to your diet and exercising more, but like I said-extremely worth it all. Good luck to you!!!!- Leslie

I haven't had any difficulties. It is the best choice I could have ever made for myself/my health. you can message me any time! go to my page and either visitor message me or private message me. good luck! Leslie
