  1. Hey! How are you? So did you get your fill?

  2. My first fill was either 8 weeks after my surgery. I went in at 5 weeks to get my first fill, but was told that I was doing good and did not need it. I got 2cc the first time and last month only one. I go again next week so I will let you know what I get. When is yours?

  3. What the hell....I was just on here the other day...everything is different! ugh!

  4. What kind of exercising do you do? I just started hiking South Mountain on Sunday, but for the past 3 weeks I was just walking. I just got my staples removed last week. Thanks for the support. :)

  5. Yeah, you should get approved. Just follow and do everything they say and you will be good. I will keep my fingers crossed for you. Good luck!

  6. Hi, sorry I am just getting back. Thanks for the welcoming. :)

  7. I have only had four. The first was 1cc and the other two were 3/4cc's and last Friday I had 1cc. I feel very little restriction. I mean very little, almost nothing...How many did you have before you started to feel restriction?

  8. Started my cooking! Well sort of...Getting the house all ready for tomorrow! :)

  9. Okay thanks for the info. I have not ate any fruit and I stay away from everything that has suger and everything is lowfat and low sodium. I try to eat everything as clean as possible. So far I am down 25 pounds since I started the whole process, but I have lost 17 with the lapband.

  10. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Have a Fantabulous day!

  11. Thanks for the request! Good luck with everything. If you ever need someone to talk to or have any questions, please ask. I just had my surgery 3 months ago. So I am still new to everything, but I do not mind trying to help. :)

  12. I have been good, thanks. I had a doctors appointment and I weighed exactley the same as a month ago. Ugh! So Frustrated, but the doc said that it may be because I lost so much weight in the beginning that my body is adjusting right now. She said I should start losing agian, but we will see. She did give me a fill, but only 3/4's. I guess a fill a little more resrtiction, but it really did not make a difference. I do not eat that much anyway, I gained all my weight from bad food choices not because of my portions. I dont know. I am just frustrated. I joined LA Fitness though so that is good. How about you, how is everything going? When are you scheduled for your fist fill? I know it is next month sometime right?

  13. Yeah dont worry it will happen. I was doing really good and for the past month I can not lose the last 3 pounds to get to 289. I am so frustrated. Just keep doing what you are doing and dont stress because it will come off. Im frustrated, but Im not going to stress myself out.

  14. Hope your feeling good and in not to much pain. Good luck and congrats!

  15. Hey, glad it went well. :) Yeah not a big difference at all. But, if you notice you eat just a tiny bit less. Not a lot, but you do. I have been good thanks. I get my 4th fill Wed. My co-worker is on his fourth and he said he fills a ton of restriction. So he has been losing a lot again. He still eats and everything, but very little and feels satisfied. He was stuck for a while too, but I think he is doing really good now. When do you go back?

  16. Hi, I just seen your pics and you lok great! congrats! ;)

  17. Hey, how have you been? Hope your doing good.

  18. Hey! :) My family thinks I am nuts sometimes because of all the things I do for my babies. They just dont understand. Your dog is super cute! :) So how are you doing? I just had my surgery almost 2 weeks ago. So far so good.

  19. I hope so too. When did you have yours done?

  20. I will let you know how it goes. Talk to you soon! :)

  21. Thanks! I used to do aerobics, but I hurt my knee so now I have to be really careful or it will just go out. So far I have been doing the hiking and I just started up areobics again. A little at a time, but I will get there. Hopefully my knee gets stronger as the weight starts to come off. Im thinking about joing LA Fitness. Thanks so much for the info. Is it okay to message you whenever I have a question?

  22. I remember when I first got under 300. Way exciting!! Congrats! Yeah it is hard to make good choices especially when your busy. I am not gonna lie I sometimes am bad, but not all the time and not super bad. It is hard, but you learn as you go. So happy for you. Well let me know how your first fill goes.

  23. I live in Laveen. So far everything is good. I have my first fill on June 2. Everything is going good too. I am super excited to start losing more. What part of AZ do you live in?

  24. Wow! I just seen your photos and you have really inspired me to keep working hard. You look really good! I just had my surgery on April 29th. My starting weight was 318 the day before the surgery, and I was 327 when I went to a lapband seminar the first week of March. What kind of exercises did you do? I just had my staples removed so I have just been walking, but today for the first time I went hiking and tomorrow I want to start aerobics. I just cant believe how good you look. Congrats!!!!!

  25. Sure is tough. Well im so glad your doing good. Let me know if you have any questions or just need to talk. I am more than happy to try and help. Talk to you soon. :)
