    After

  3. You got that right!! At least we are not gaining. I feel like I am loosing inches tho. I have noticed a lot of my clothes are fitting loose the scale just isn't really reflecting it yet!! I just had my second fill last week. They told me it would take 3-4 fills before I really start seeing results! I hope thats true!!
  4. Thanks for the add. Congrats on your surgery! You have already lost more than me and I've had my band longer...good for you! How many fills have you had? Take care, Melissa

  5. Whats good Rick? Long time no talk. How have you been??

  6. Hey Melissa I came across your profile and noticed you were banded the month before! Congrats! We also were about the same weight. I would love to keep in contact with ya on your progress! :) You pics look GREAT!

  7. thank you!! :blushing: I find myself liking to excersise now! Gotta love that feeling
  8. My knees are doing a lot better! I just rested them a few days and they were good to go. I LOVE swimming and was just thinking to myself to look into water arobics. Too bad winter is around the corner bc my folks have a pool that I can use anytime but since its winter I have to find an indoor pool! That is great that you have the time to workout so much and good for you for sticking to it!! :blushing: I worked out yesterday on my wii fit with the new Jillian Michaels game. I LOVE it!
  9. Thanks girl! Yeah it is harder to workout as much as I want too bc I work fulltime BUT I make sure to get some type of workout in at least 5 times a day. My second week after surgery I fell and busted both knees so I couldn't do any walking for a few days. Then my third week I got a sinus infection, ear infection, and stomach bug all at once so that delayed my workout too. How are you liking zumba? I have thought about doing that too.
  10. Just curious of when everyone started really seeing the weight come off? I was banded on 9/20 and I have lost about 15 lbs since surgery? Is this about normal? I kind of thought it might be a little more. My surgeon said I am doing great. I just had my 2 fill last week and I feel a little restriction but not a lot. I am walking twice a week for 30-45 mins and doing a light workout 3 times a week for 30-45 mins. Doc said to give it about 8-10 weeks before bumping up the workout and that after about 4 fills I should start seeing more results. I'm just kind of confused on about how much you first loose and when you start really seeing it come off.
  11. Hey girl I am doing good after a tough time when I first got banded! I'm just trying to get use to the new banded life :D Hope all is well.

  12. Hey hun you commented on a pic of mine a few months back so I just wanted to check in and see how things are going so far? Hope all is well!
