  1. Happy 36th Birthday pocketsfullofsunshine125!

  2. How are you doing? sounds like were doing the same. i got stuck for a couple months without losing any weight. i think im going to go for a fill, ive heard that really helps. have you gone for a fill yet?

  3. I have to say feeling like a million bucks today!!! :)

  4. hi there how are you doing with the zumba classes. i have noticed a lot of people are starting to go to them classes must be fun.. imma have try one day..... i like to workout in the privacy of my home....... :)

  5. Sounds like we are in the same boat, I dont get a fill untill Jan 31, 2010 I start working out i am going to Zumba classes again and healthy foods. So what is your diet like?

  6. WOW i have restriction ........... yay!!!

  7. om.. goodness these potluck thingys at work suck ubber booty!!!!!

  8. Just checking up on you... How's the exercise & eating going? Are we still on track? :)

  9. okay i just logged on and i think it's gonna take me a minute to get use too!!

  10. Well pretty much back on track lost the 5 pounds i gained. i been busting my @ss and eating right, so i think i will make my appointment. I just felt stupid one time i went i believe it was my second fill i gained like two pounds i think i was also my monthly period and he made me feel stupid.... doc said "Whats going on you know this is just a tool you can't depend on it" so yeah i just wanted to smack him.... but that is why i feel stupid... lol but i think it's about that time i make my appointment.... i will let you know how it goes...

  11. Hey Pockets!! Don't get discouraged, i didnt lose anythign for 2 months.. and dont be embarrased to go back and get a fill. I used to be like that, but they are there to support me and get me back on track when I need them to, thats why they get paid the big bucks!! lol. Seriously, if I gain or not lose anything I am looking to my clinic for some help... I encourage you to do the same. You got the band to help you, you shouldnt have to do it alone.

    I finally have the restriction I "need", actually a little more.. and it only allows me to eat what I am "supposed" to eat (quantaty wise) the third of a cup.. etc. It's hard to eat protein though it all gets slightly stuck.. I'm still feeling this out it's only been a week at this point.

    Keep me posted and reach out any time! stay strong and keep up the good work.. and go get your fill that's what the band is for!! Good luck!
