  1. This is the best thing i ever bought myself.. I am forever a fan of this thing now... I asked for the watch for my birthday, which is in 3 weeks, but I have been so used to not having it, i dont know if i really need it...
  2. Where is everyone :thumbup::crying::smile2::crying::ohmy::crying:.. I miss you guys.. I remember back in the day there would be tons of posts on here.. I am doing good going to be one week out from my fill tomorrow. I did feel some resistance but not really anymore.. But I do notice that i stay full longer though.. I have only one close call and that was last night.. Friend of mine wanted me to pick her up wendys and I got a hamburger for me.. I was 1/3 done with it and I started having chest pain hehe I throw the rest in the fire (was at a bombfire) so I didnt think one second to try to keep eating it heheh! I am down 4lbs this week.. I think its a comb. of my fill and my bodybugg which has been a godsent to me! Was 270 this morning.. Was 290 at surgery.. Hoping to get in the 250's for my 27th bday (june 21st) Well check in sometime guys..

  6. Hey thats great thats like 1.5lbs a week :thumbup: I have been walking for 20mins during my 45mins lunch breaks.. its my secret weapon in losing more weight heheh
  7. I ride my bike everyday but Its a workout bike not a real bike, so i can move my arms more.. I find it to be accurate. Had my coach session this morning and she said she was suprised when she saw my 6000 cal burn days but She said I have way more muscle then most girls and she really thinks thats why i am getting suck high cal burns..
  8. finally got to watch the show on DVR.. Was it me or what Koli acting stuck up or rude after he didnt win americas vote? I didnt really like his attitude.. I thought the pink mother looks great and Stephanie! what a difference she did.. She looks awesome! I thought the twin didnt look like they lost much but Also they are heavier and have alot more to lose and i know they but lost 100+ lbs that good..
  9. I was happy to see Mike pulled it off.. Thats a lot of weight to lose! I kinda was hoping Ashley would win but I am happy for mike as well. Didnt get to watch any of it until the end, so i cant wait to watch all of it tonight on DVR
  10. It goes on how the Fluid is going through your pouch. When i took my first sip it went right threw so he added 2 then i sipped again and it still went threw pretty fast so he add another cc and that put me to 3cc I feel great.. even Water is sitting in the pouch a little.. I feel full again and it feels great! I thought he said liquids, i didnt hear clear hehe.. So i had tomato Soup at 4pm and that was my first meal today.. I am not hungry but i have a massive headache like i havent ate all day... I plan on having a Protein shake for dinnner and one for Breakfast.. I cant wait to eat really food again!!!!!!!!
  11. Got my first fill today! got 3cc's :tongue2: It was so easy i dont know why i was so worried.. Liquids only today and it sucks! Even water is sitting for a while and I LOVE IT!!
  12. Yep i had a fill at 1:15 :tongue2: got 3cc and you?
  13. Thanks :thumbup: wasnt for sure... I am nervous as heck!
  14. Hiya guys.. a question for my fellow march banders that already have a fill... Need to get in a workout tomorrow, no reason i couldnt go to the gym after my fill right?
  15. I think mine is the opposite.. it says i burned 6628 calories today.. i dont know how that is possible...
  16. You havent lifted with me before then hehe! It said I was burning 17 Calories a min during my 30 mins of Lifting last night. I take zero Rest and go one set on one lift and go right to another exercise.. I see it as Weight lifting and cardio ehehh!
  17. I find the pedometer is right on too.. I counted my steps one day heheh
  18. I agree.. I am very happy they showed it too.. I was crying because I really feel his pain..
  19. I voted for Darius.. I was balling when he was asking for americas vote. I feel his pain and Alot of us do the same thing.. I wont vote for koli because i didnt like his attitude a few weeks ago. where he was like i am going to be top 4 its mine and all that crap.. I wasnt bored i really liked the show this week..
  20. I am really having a hard time believing this thing.. Yesterday I did an hour of cardio and lifted for 40 mins and it said I burned 3589 calories.. Today I havent worked out on bit was on for 16 hours at my paramedic job the first 6 of it i slept and only ran 3 calls the rest of the shift with some patient lifting and sweating due to starting ivs and all the fun jazz and It says i burned 4098 calories, i dont know how that is possible :laugh: I hope this wasnt a waste of my money...
  21. So I had my 2nd Follow up appt at the doctors today.. Only lost 4lbs in 6 weeks. He wasnt a bit mad at me though, So that made me feel better. He said He knows i am working out hard and that I just need to the band to help me so I have a Fill scheduled for this coming Monday! :thumbup:
  22. Got my Bodybugg this AM :thumbup: Charged her up and have been wearing her since Noon. It wants me to burn 3550 Calories and My Target Calories to eat is 2050
  23. hiya guys! I have my second post op Visit tomorrow (8 weeks from surgery) I am hoping he will say i can get a fill.. He doesnt do them in his office he does them at the hospital. So i would have to schedule a fill.. To date i have only lost like 18 lbs, but you know what I am still some 30 lbs from where i was when i started this journey and I refused to be mad about 18lbs..
  24. Thats what the sleep center staff told me.. Alot of people get up think it was the urge to go to the bathroom when in fact it was them stop breathing that woke up them and since they are up they feel the urge to go to the bathroom...
