  1. hey gurl update me!

  2. hey gurl u look sooo good! I cant wait to b down 100 pounds! hows everything so far?

  3. Hey girl I was banded by Dr Geiss ova the summer..He's like the #1 recommended Surgon for Gastric Banding in NY...Very popular doc/hospital, dats y I chose him...but anyways I was in the same situation as u...I think I gained like 5-10 pounds after meeting with him...Best thing to do is focus and lose weight with your liquid diet. You have a good 4 weeks before your surgury, you will def lose weight but most importantly SHRINK UR LIVER (and thats what the liquid diet will help u accomplish)...Dont stress yourself over gaining like 5 pounds, we all know why we got the lap band 2 begin with and that's because we have weight loss problems. So dont dwell on the gainings just focus on your goal of losing 10-15 pounds by the 31st. And if it makes you feel better, I lost 15 pounds post op and after my surgury I asked him if my liver was small and he said no but he worked around it...I asked him about his other patients for that day and he told me their livers were big as well...But he still did the surgury. So just focus on losing weight and you will be good!

    9 months in and confused

    were in the same boat! I wanna know the same exact thing. Because I feel somewhat tight only because I have to throw up certain foods...But Im never full on half a cup of food...Im at 6.7cc with a 10cc band...I dont wanna get it tight to where I have to throw up everything...but I want to be able to eat half a cup...Im gonna go for another fill next week though...Im jus gonna keep trying to see what works for me
  6. Face is first but stomache is last 4 me! & majority will say dat the most important part 2 lose is the last 2 go! (which will most likley be the stomache area)

    relationship changes

    my boyfriend supports me 100% along with my fam & friends...But my boyfriend is sooooo jealous! Im 21 & he's 20 we've been 2gether for 8 months. He wants to get married soon like maybe 2 years but I'm just taking things slow. He always thought I was going 2 leave him. N now since I got the lap band, he's insecure cuz if he sees im losing inches, he'll get happy but then throw in "ohh look at u now, things r going good in ur hands...u prob talkin 2 another man, its ok if u did jus tell me" or "u go clubbing every damn day!" when meanwhile I might go clubbing once a MONTH!....b4 I met him I use 2 b a party head..use 2 party every week!...I have a lot of confidence as a big girl! I get alot of guys that try 2 talk 2 me bc even tho my body is big, my face is beautiful and I dress to impress so u cant even see the big problem....so thats why hes insecure to begin with...and me losing weight will jus make his life a living hell bc guys will be checkin me out 24/7 n hes gonna hate it...but dat da same time, hes gonna love it bc he's suchh a big show off...he shows me off 2 the world all da time...so when i lose weight, he's gonna feel like he's the man cuz he got wut everybody else wants...so when ur man gets jealous, just know its bc he loves u n cannot live without u...dont take it the wrong way...jus work it out 2gether

    Did you name your band?

    I just came up with a name for my band. My band is called "MiniMe". I picked this name because soon this band is going to help me see the version of the mini me lol and Im calling my port "Babypokey" bc it always pokes out & when I touch it I feel like Im touchin a baby
  9. Hello every1, I was banded on July 17 and I had only lost 30 pounds...To me, that was slow but to others it was like a miracle! I was starting to look really good in clothes. But now, I lost the good feeling. The holidays screwed me ova! Or should I jus say I screwed myself :thumbup: but anyways, Im determined to get right back on track! And I wanted to share my 1 min weight loss pics with every1 because maybe it will motivate some...And I really need some motivation too so if any1 has helpful advice, pics, or videos, please share them with others. Thanks alot Link to my youtube video is below
  10. hmm dat sounds like a very long process lol I think i'll just stick to water and other low cal beverages
  11. yeah im pissed cuz these peanuts arent keepin me full n its HIGH in calories...I need a better snack

  12. what size is ur band? Ur at a 7cc so your pretty tight if you have a 10cc band. I have a 10cc band and I went to the doc a few days ago and got a fill. Im up to 6.7cc and ever since then I slime/throw up often. I now have to REALLY adjust my eating behavior/habits. I chose foods carefully and eat it slowly. There will be times when some foods will go down certain days and not go down other days. We just have to be aware of what might get stuck so that we can STAY AWAY from them when were eating in public! :confused:
  13. I totally understand what you are going through. I remember when I was post op I was in ALOT of pain so I didnt really care about eating. It wasn until the pain was gone, I would want to eat and I mean EAT!..Your going to be in "bandster hell" and honestly the only way you can get through this is with will power and determination. And I'm glad my video helped! Just keep thinking about the mini animal print dress that you will be wearing real soon! Good luck :confused:
  14. I had that problem as well..I kept on drinkin soda only because I knew nothing would happen. I mean, its going to mess up the band if we continue to drink it but while Im drinking it, nothing happens at the moment. Maybe that's something we both can start to change. As with excersizing, I dont really like doing it. But I find that when I go to the gym and take a class, it makes me feel better.
  15. girl this 6.7 fill is really working! I really cant eat the same. But I can still eat my fav foods just in small portions bc the band realy stops me from eating the rest..n den I feel full....Today I started my "diet" lol...I drank a shake 4 breakfast at 8am n managed to stay OKAY until 11:30. I jus ate a peanut butter sandwich (wheatbread) with a small portion of peanuts n I dont feel hungry..So I'm guessing I will def be losin alot of weight b4 May :) lol

  16. Thanks Hummingbird! That's 1 of the things that's keeping me real motivated! Just thinking about how cute I'm going to look in sexy clothing! My bf is already jealous so just imagine when more eyes on me :thumbup: lol thanks Mimi...I'm at 6.7cc Im hoping to lose weight quickly, Im not even hungry anymore. All of a sudden, I have no appetite and I can't finish the rest of my food...Is this the sweet spot? I hope so and I hope it stays like this forever! lol
  17. thanks girl...did u get the band yet or u still in process?

  18. really when is ur bday? mines is may 23

  19. yeah girl I need to boost it up to 20 pounds a month cuz I've been slacking lol...right now im at 6.7cc...wut bout u?

  20. yeah I jus got a fill like half an hour ago lol! Im at 6.7cc with a 10cc band...Hopefully this does the trick! Girl I gained like 5 pounds! I'm soo mad at myself but I'm determined to lose 20 pounds each month until May! Im not gonna stop..we both gotta b real sexy by june so we can go shoppin 2gether hehehe

  21. I never heard of this magic thing and I honestly wouldnt wait 4 it...I kno its a struggle n the weight loss is gonna be real slow at times but u gotta find some type of motivation dat will become ur magic...jus think about how sexy ur gonna look in the spring/summer...think about how when u reach ur goal weight u can eat that icecream without worrying all day cuz who cares if you gain a pound u will still look great! I dont think alot of us enjoy going to the gym and dieting, I mean thats part of the reason why some of us are overweight to begin with...But if we change that attitude, we will see a difference. Thats the only thing that keeps me going..good luck
  22. hey gurl!!!!!! Im so glad ur back :) hows everything? I got surgury on july 17 lost 31 pounds but then gained a few back...I'll kno how much I weigh in like a week n a half but I been back on track goin 2 da gym n eating healthy...wut bout u?
