  1. Hello all, I just want to say congrats to all the pregnany bandsters!! We are starting to try as of this month, I am 2 years post op and I am going to see my doctor to let him know tomorrow. I actually need a fill right now I havent been to see him in 8 months and I have gained about 15 lbs...I wonder if I should be trying to lose while TTC??? Any advice??
  2. I havent posted in awhile but I'm now in ONEderland as of yesterday so I thought I'd post!! :biggrin:
  3. WOW time is really getting away from me!! I'm now 91lbs down and finally in ONEderland!!!! 199.2!!! so I thought I'd come on and update...hope everyone is doing well!!
  4. long time no chat LOL How are you guys?!?! I'm now down 80 lbs and I'm very happy with my results, I could stop losing now and be satisfied...I'm a size 14 and loving being able to shop anywhere I want! Just wanted to update!
  5. Hey guys, I only lost 2 lbs this month, I know its not my band, its me....but I just need to work out more and lay off the sugary foods. But 2 lbs down is better than gaining right?? We need to start a June post!!
  6. Hey guys, I haven't posted in awhile but I'm doing well, I've cut out some of my ice cream habbits and I lost a couple pounds yay! It really is mind over matter pelo, get some frozen yogurt and keep it in the freezer for when you get a major craving, it worked for me.... I went to try on my maid of honor dress for my best friends wedding yesterday and when I got sized in Jan they wanted to order me a size 20 and I was like NO WAY, order me a 16! They thought I couldnt do it but when I slipped it on last night I was able to clasp the top and zip almost all the way up! I think about 10 more lbs and a body shaper thingy and it would be perfect! YAY Anway, I thought I'd share lol Keep up the good work girls!!!
  7. I'm there too guys, I think I'm getting too comfortable in my own skin because last month I only lost 2lbs But hey, its better than none I guess. I've been focusing on school, I have my last final tomorrow and then I hope to be able to focus on ME more. I bought a tankini bathing suit for this summer and I love it so thats my NSV for the month Anyone else started shopping for that yet??
  8. Here are some updated full body pics...The first is at a friends wedding in July 06 and the the other 2 are a few days ago :confused:
  9. Ice cream is my worst enemy right now, it is getting warmer out here now and I crave it in the summer :confused: I need to find a low fat ice cream or yogurt that I really like so that I can have a healthy option, any suggestions? I'm not a chocolate person, I like banana ice cream from coldstone....Let me know if you guys know any good alternatives!
  10. thought I'd share....1st is Nov 2005 and the second is Feb 2007 and the last is April 12th 2007, exactly one year till my wedding day!
  11. Just thought I'd share, I love pics :mad:
  12. Hello Indiana people! I'm Jamie and I live in Crown Point, IN and was banded by Dr Stanish in Merrillville on Aug 22nd 2006 at Methodist Hosp. I'm glad to see an Indiana forum
  13. Hey guys, I havent posted in awhile...I just updated the abc totals page too I am so proud of us all! I was upset after my unfill though because I gained back 7 lbs (back to 228) but I think it was water weight and then PMS because I'm back at 221 as of yesterday! I want to make a resolution for April more than a goal. I want to make sure to drink lots of water and lay off the sweets! I am working out when I can, it isnt much but its there so if I can resolve to do that more that'd be good too lol. I have exactly 1 year till my wedding and 5 months till I'm in my best friends wedding, I want to be in onederland by her's and at goal by mine!! I'm glad you guys are here for support!
  14. I havent updated this in awhile either! I am now down 69 lbs with my last fill being too tight and needing an unfill, stats below! My ticker was wrong for awhile as I gained about 7 lbs after the unfill but it was mostly water and it only took me 2 weeks to get it back off. I think I may be at my "sweet spot" now...although sweets have definately entered the picture again! I think it's because with almost 70 lbs gone I actually like the way I'm starting to look and I'm getting too comfortable...I do want to lost at lease 20 most lbs to be in onederland by my wedding though....so I'm starting today, less sweets (I work at starbucks so this will be hard) and water, water water!!
  15. I definately still have mental hunger, I'll find myself looking in the pantry when I'm bored out of habit. I'd like to think it goes away eventually...
