  1. Happy 36th Birthday bogus01!

  2. Happy 35th Birthday bogus01!

  3. Congrats to you and ur huge success. I am in search for Onderland myself. I'm only 6lbs away but getting discouraged with all the holidays approaching. I have to stay focused and keep myself motivated, so I too can have another reason to celebrate. Not complaining @ all because the results I have had so far are amazing. And I would'nt change being banded for anything, even those not so great days I have once in awhile. Congrats to all who love themselves enough to want to get healthy........ :sneaky:
  4. I know it sounds crazy but I don't own a scale, so I only weight in @ the doctor's office once a month. I can be pretty obsessive with the scale so I never bought one post op and I threw my previous one out when I was almost 300lbs.:sneaky:
  5. I don't regret one minute of it. Sometimes I miss certain foods, but not enough to be morbidly obese again. As for the gas pain... The GasEx strips and lots for walking worked the best for me. Im still learning my band, but so far so good. Lots of luck and Congrats on considering ways to love yourself more by getting healthy.
  6. I'm from West Orange, NJ. I work for the State of NJ as a clerk and I'm a part time student @ Essex Co College.

    Drinking while eating???

    it's hard to do and takes lots of practice
  9. Thank you so much for posting ur great pics and for ur encouraging words. This forum has saved my life. Everyone is so positive and motivated and that's exactly what I need to stay on track. I believe that I can accomplish anything with hard work and planning and that's what I'm going to do so I too can reach my goal weight and inspire others as you all have inspired me. I had LAPBAND surgery on April 14, 2010, so far so good. I'm down 47 lbs since surgery and pushing forward. Congrats to u all for ur success stories. Keep up the great work.:drool:

    Banded on wed Apr 14th. Today has been good so far. Really gassy but the GasX strips are really helping. Still sore but moving around and trying to get my liquids in. Hopefully I'll make it outside tomorrow for some fresh air. Congrats to all who have been banded and good luck to those who are still waiting to be banded.:thumbup:
