  1. Oh thanks so much for your post. I was banded last April and was too getting discouraged with my weight loss with many of the same feelings you were having. I also just began to really feel restriction and am beginning to lose weight. Thanks for sharing.
  2. Sorry to hear that you are having trouble. I hope everything is resolved and you'll be able to get back to your old self. I have no words of wisdom but wish you well.
  3. You express your feelings so well and thank you for sharing your first years journey. I certainly is an inspiration to hear. Happy bandiversary!!!!!!!

  5. Great post. I can't wait to get to the place you are right now. Certainly I am eating very differently and feeling very differently but am not yet where you are with food. Thanks for the inspirational post.

    I am so sure you will be fine. Keep us posted during your recovery. I found ice chips were my best friend directly after surgery. Looking foward to your next post.

  8. Oh how I remember how good those ice chips were. Your are doing so well and are an inspiration. Thanks for sharing
  9. Congratulations to you. I am very frustrated today and reading your story has lifted my spirits. You are doing so well.
  10. I love your menu. Can I come to your house for dinner? Good luck with your new restriction - your doing great.
  11. At 2:30 today I had my first fill and am so excited. My weight loss since my fill has been slow - but you know they say slow and steady wins the race. The fill itself was pretty uneventfull and went very quickly with just a pinch of pain. I am still tracking my food carefully and plan on keeping it up. I've lost a total of 9 lbs since surgery and am going to keep a positive attitude and do the best I can every day without discouragement. Gonna pick up the pace on getting moving. Thanks for all your support guys. 1st visit with Dr - 260 lbs Shot up to 275 in between Day of surgery 258 Day of first fill 249
  12. Wow, what an inspirational post. I am now so excited about the possibility of have enough energy to do half of what you have been able to do. Great job. Thanks for sharing.

    Since I havent had much luck losing weight I have basically been on Atkins because it is so easy to follow. I can't fool myself into having a taste of something that is clearly on the no list. I can only stay on for a week or so, but find it helpful when I know I will be tempted by going to a party or function. I usually start a few days before so I am in full swing by the time the event comes around. We are worth the effort and I also need to remind myself of that daily. Good luck, your doing great.
