Elfiepoo why are having your band removed?

I agree 1-2 lbs a week. At the very most. This has been my experiance. Im a slow looser.

I eat salad with no problems.

You look great. I am so jelous LOL. I am so very happy for you. 3/11/10

Hey AJ when were you banded?

Congrats on your PS. I was wondering (I know its personal) but can you all give me a aprox price you paid for theTT - Breast lift/aug, Its to soon for my to get any consults. Yet I want to start to save my $$$$ and I have no idea what im looking at. Thanks 3/11/10

wow that is wonderful. what a great job you have done. You are a true insperation. Thank you for posting.

Good Job . Great attitude.

Good Topic. I am going to do tummy and boob work. I need to start saving $$$$. How much did the procedures cost.?

That is my dream to fit into VS pants and sweetshirts. PINK. I hope by next Valentines I will be shopping VS. For myself. Great Job. 3/11/10

Yes this happened to me on my first fill , no hematoma. But my Dr. thought I might have an infection. So I flew to Denver and instead of a fill I was sent home with antibiotics. The Dr. and I both agreed that it was not worth the risk. I am a self pay. This does mean you will be in bandster hell longer, so stay strong. Try not to worry just start working out and it will be time for your fill sooner than you know. Remember this is for life no quick fix LOL. Keep up the good work. And good luck. Band 3/11/10

I have a desk job. Had surgurey on Thursday and back to work on Monday. It hurt but I was able to do it. Good Luck. Band 3/11/10

Wow your weight loss is wonderful. I am a little jelous of you LOL. Great Job what an insperation. You are living proof that this can work.

Gongrats I know seats in this world are not made for overweight people. Its getting better for me all the time. And TKW wow you are doing fantastic. Go for it.

I have been banded about 10 1/2 months now. I thought about having this lap band for 4 years. I am a self pay. I will tell all you new banders. The pain will go away. And yes it is very hard no easy way out on this. All in all I can honestly say that I am so happy I made the decision. My life after 75 LBs is so much better in every way. I still get sad that I have so much more to loose but at least now I know I can do this. 90 lbs almost seems reachable were as 165 did not. I wish all of you the best. Hang in there. You can do it.

great job / NSV are the best ever

I wish I had an answer. This is my biggist issue. I stay the same weight for ever.

I know isn't great . I have been wanting to make a a list./Book on all the things I couldnt not do and very truley afraid to have happen to me again. They are slowly happining every day. It makes me very happy.

Good job rayne913. ondeland way to go. I hit 75 Lbs this weekend. Yea. It sure has been a long process. Ups and downs. I am very happy I have made it this far, as I try not to look at how much more I have to go, Hope evrey one has a good week,

YOU DONT NEED TO TELL HER IF YOU DONT WANT TO. I MADE THE CHOICE NOT TO TELL ANY ONE. JUST MY HUSBAND AND MY DAUGHTER KNOW. ANY WAY WHAT I TELL PEOPLE IS (ONLY WHEN THEY ASK) . "MY GOAL IS TO EAT 1/2 OF WHAT I USED TO AND EAT IT SLOW" WORKS FOR ME. NO ONE QUESTIONS THAT. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THE BIGIST PERSON AMONG FREINDS AND FAMILY SO ITS NOT LIKE I HAVE ANY ONE WANTING TO KNOW MY SERECT TO SUCSESS. GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR FAMILY. HAVE FUN. REMEMBER THIS IS NOT A DIET ITS A LIFE STYLE CHANGE. HOPEFULLY YOU WILL BE EATING THIS WAY FOR LIFE. SO NO NEED TO EXPLAIN YOURSELF.

I am so in. My name was gone on the other spreed sheet. LOL. But this is huge for me, this will bring me to my one year banding date 3/11/10. lets see what I can do. Good luck guys.

WTF get to your Dr. and get a fill. I am a self pay and dont have any $$$$$ but I manage to save enough to get my fills. You need to find a Dr. that takes self pays. They almost always offer less expensive options. Dont give up Kayla.

THAT IS SO WONDERFUL. I AM SO SO HAPPY FOR YOU. GREAT JOB AND YES THIS IS SO NOT THE EASY WAY OUT. I CAN NOT WAIT TILL I REACH THE 100 LB MARK. I AM SARTING TO SMELL IT NOW I CAN ALMOST TASTE IT LOL. GREAT WORK TANQUERAY 3/11/10

Well its all been said. I love Zumba I try to go 4 days a week. I really dont like one of the two instructors. But I go just for the work out. Yes Dance shoes are every thing. I would not try without them if you have bad knees. I was out of town for the holidays., and when I returned the classes with my fav instrutor was so packed. Oh well New Years. hopefuly it will get a little less full. Just go have fun it is really a judgement free zone, So what if you dont get all the steps . at least your doing it when was the last time i danced for over an hour. Go ZUMBA. Maybe some day I will be in Zumba clothes. I Wil I will.!!!!!!!!!!! 3/11/10
