  1. Happy 41st Birthday orlandotrock1!

  2. How are you doing these days? I'm now a little more than 7 months out, I'm 70 lbs down and have reached my goal weight. Well close enough to call it anyway. I am holding steady just under 145. (My goal was 140) Give us an update!

  3. I havent been here for a while but I'm good. Banded 12/3/10 and have lost 20lbs, so I guess I'm on my way.

    54!!! Thats great keep up the good work.

  4. Are you still around? I was banded on Aug 9th as secheduled. I have lost 54 pounds since I couldn't be happier!

    Got Banded December 3, 2010

    I was also banded on the 3rd. Not having much pain, getting in and out of bed is the hardest. Today I did go shopping and was in and out of the car about 6 times and still feeling pretty good. Had some oatmeal today w/no problem but dont really have a taste for anything either. Good luck and keep me posted.
  6. I want to be able to buy the outfit in the regular size store window. Shorts!!! I cant remember the last time I wore shorts, it must have been 8 years ago.

    Banded yesterday and I dont have much pain at all, mostly tenderness in my belly. I had the single incision surgery. The OR time was about 45 min, then around an hour in recovery, then down to get an xray(to make sure everything was placed right) Back to recovery they made me drink some water and go to the bathroom-then discharged. I feel good have been walking around the house because its too cold outside. I was not afraid of the surgery, I was more nervous because I work on the campus of the hospital and I dont want everyone to know my business. My husband worked for a while and my kids were at a party, I was alone and i was fine. The pain meds helped LOL! I have been napping on and off all day. I'm sure looking forward to Monday when I can have more to eat...havent had any real food since Wed night. I'll keep you posted. Good luck!
