HD Mama, sorry I've been gone for a while. How I knew it was time to go to the doctor with him is when, I told him one morning that if I got a email from his teacher that I would go to the school and spank him in front of everyone. I could tell that morning it was agonna be one of those days!! so by noon I had a email, went to the school and went to take him to the principle and the counselor came and wanted to talk with us. She talked with him and she told me that as a mom of 2 boys she would give me a list of doctors and numbers but not as a counselor that they are trained not to get involved. but that she thought that i should carry him to the doctor and see. He has a history of not being able to focus on a task for very long, very forgettful and he would hit his sister when he would get mad at her. even when it was in front of us and he knew that he would be discplined by us. He would be very angry over any little thing and then it was a huge melt down for him. We tried every discpline tecqinue there was and nothing worked. It will make you feel like a horrible parent and I totally understand i thought I would have a nervous breakdown. Now that hes on meds life is so much better at our home. Well I hope this helps Well Ladies, If you can believe it I managed to lose 4lbs during the holidays!!! BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW !! With all the goodies that I ate anyway. Hope everyone is doing well. The new year will be a new challenge for us all !! good luck

Hi everyone, Kcg- sorry I've been out of pocket for a while. but I'm doing fine havn't lost any more weight but have maintained during the holidays. But I've been dealing with a 7 year old son that has ADHD AND ODD. Finally broke down and went to the doctor with him. The Doctor put him on meds oh i've had mixed emotions about that. But so far its turned out to be a good thing. Not over medicated. The teacher said he has had a great, great week so something must be working. Plus at home I can tell a difference. He said mama now I feel like I have more control over myself. So yall keep him and me in your prayers. Cause mama don't know how much more she can takeeeee!!!!!!! LOL but I do LOVE My Boy!!

Hi, where did everyone go??? I miss yall!! I'm finally to goal!! YYYYEEESSSS!!! hope this finds all of you doing great! I'm gonna start my fund for plastic surgery for a tt now for the following year. I don't get a rash or anything and I do have insurance do yall think I can get them to help pay for the excess skin to be removed? Just wanting someones thought.

Hi everyone, Hope all is doing well. We are officially at 1 year mark. Yay. What a journey we've all been on. But so glad that I was given the chance. Well I got a fill of .30 last week and i'm starting to lose again. Im down to 161 lbs. considering i'm 5ft 8in I don't have much more to lose. i'm finally considered a normal weight. I'm not overweight anymore. Do you know how long its been since i've seen a normal weight and a size 10 to 12 depending on the name brand. I love my band with the good, bad and ugly. Hope the best for all of you in the coming year. Sorry I havn't been posting as much lately but I've been to busy living life.

Kcg- I tottaly understand where your at right now. I had a slight unfill a few weeks ago, the doc took out .5 and I can eat anything, I Mean ANYTHING! and Ive been hungier than normal and have been over indulging. My dear husband asked yesterday how much weight ive gained and i told him none so far but im trying to be careful. but boy its hard. But ive been trying to eat light yogurt and things like that. I did eat a biscuit yesterday morning the first one i've had in a year!! and it was ssooooo gooood! Lol But I did better the rest of today. Just take one day at the time and the 29th will be here before you know it. I to will sch a slight fill for myself to insure that I continue on track with the last few lbs I have to lose. Look how far you have came. If you want food eat just opt for something good for you maybe high Fiber high Protein. Usually that will help you stay full longer. good luck too! You can do it! we just have to believe. Hope everyone else is doing great! Lets all commit to have a great week and staying focused on our goals! Because we can do anything we put our minds to! Best wished to all!!

Hi, all Kcg- Yes I went last Tuesday and had .5 taken out however, that was more than the last fill that he give me. I can sleep good and eat good now. I'm just having to be very careful about what and how much I eat right now but, am maintaing ok. I am to go back in 2 weeks and he may give me a slight fill. Guess I will have to wait and see. I still have 6lbs to go to get to goal right now I'm just trying to maintain and the other will come in due time i'm sure. Kcg how tall are you? what is the average scale for your height and weight to be. Just make sure your at a healthy weight it doesn't have to be the bottom but I know that you can achieve what ever goal you set!! Happy October Bandster Day!! Wow how this year has changed my life and flew by.

kcg- way to go 13lbs. is great. Leighamason- your doing so good on maintenance. keep up the good work and do share the news letter with us. Well i'am going in for a slight unfill today as i've been battling reflux and chocking at night time can't sleep much and have been eating slider foods. so I hope this will help with the reflux and jump start my weightloss again. good to hear from you all.

Hi, to all you OCTOBER 2010 Bandsters I'm a OCTOBER 2009 Bandster. I'm telling you hang on to ur hats. because I know how excited, nervous you all are and let me tell you, theirs gonna be good days and some bad. But the good out ways the bad by tons. I started out at 268lbs now i'm 166lbs went from a 22-24 pants to a size 10-12 pants. Let me tell you its the most single best thing i've ever done for myself. Their will be bumps along the way and you will think what have I done I still have that sometimes but just remember you wanted a change in your life. but when you start buying smaller clothes and getting all the comments it will boost your self-esteem so much that it out ways all those other times. SO HERES TO A NEW START IN LIFE. LIVE IT TO THE FULLEST. This time next year I hope you are doing the exact same thing i'm doing right now. Sharing with newbies that are about to start the adventrue of a lifetime. Good Luck To All! will look forward to hearing from yall. 102lbs yeah, BABY!!!!!!!!!!

kcg- I also am worried about atramom. I hope everything is ok. I also have been on a plateau for a month now but finally this morning the scale was from 1-2 lbs. less. Thank you lord. I was beginning to wonder. because I dont eat hardly anything these days I don't see how I couldn't be losing any weight. so hope everyone is doing good. I have been lazy about posting but i've been reading everyone else. So I hope that we are all losers in the next week.
