Christian bandsters
Hello! I just wanted to come by and say hello! I am also a Christian! I would love to have support from other believers. I know that the Lord is the one who has helped me lose this weight. People are always asking for our secrets, diet, exercise,etc. My 1st and most important secret weapon is God helping me to lose weight. 2nd, He has helped me lose weight by a supplement He led me to called QuickSlim30. I did so well on it that God led me to start selling it to. My pastors were the first ones to buy it from me and people from church and they are all having awesome results. God is so good!!! Audree

What is helping you succeed right now?
One thing that has helped me a lot is a supplement I take called QuickSLim30. I began taking it when I was first banded and lost 25 pounds right off the bat. A lot for a lower BMI. I stopped taking it and plateaued. I started taking it again and began losing again. I have lost 40 pounds now. It has helped curb my appetite and raise my metabolism. I have 3 cc's and ca'nt get another fill since I pb and slime a lot. But I wasn't losing. Between my band and the QuickSlim30 I am 5 pounds away from my goal!!! Audree

You need to contact your doctor right away. When you can't pass water it can get dangerous. You can dehydrate. Call your doctor right away.

I started as soon as they were healed which was maybe after 6 weeks. You can't stretch them out. The scar tissue needs to be broken down. You will feel it under the skin. Eventually it will be flat.

Thanks!!! I did have a tummy tuck also. I had my PS here in CA with a surgeon in San Bernardino. His name is Dr. Jesse Mithcell. His website is California Cosmetic Surgery with Dr. Jesse Mitchell - Cosmetic surgeon in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles & Orange County He did great and I knew other people who had surgery with him also. I do recommend him.

Man, today while having lunch with my grandmother, I got stuck and started to slime. I was about to pb and had to excuse myself and spit out the food left in my mouth and slime!!!:faint: I held it long enough to not pb, but it was extremely uncomfortable!!! I am so glad I didn't go for another fill!!!! Enterprise: One thing that I know helped with my scaring was massage. My husband or myself, massaging Cocoa Butter or something else with good quality ingredients, massaging out the scar. It could be very painful at times, but the scar tissue needs to be broken down. We were more careful on the port site, but massage is very important for the scars. TracyinKS: Good to see you too! I will take some pics this weekend and post some new ones!!! Thanks guys for being such a great support!!! Audree

I don't want to get another fill because i get stuck and slime a lot. I am actually down to 150 now!!:clap2: I start my day with some hot tea and then usually have 2 scrabled eggs about 9 or 10. It is really hard to get them down. I eat a normal lunch and dinner. I just notice the QuickSlim30 curbs my appetite and helps with my sugar and carb cravings. I have a slow metabolism too, but that has picked up!!!

I am finally back!!! My internet was down for so long and I could only check from work!!!! I did have one and it cost me only $2000 but only because I had other procedures done and it was included in the package. The scarring was not very pretty for a long time. I actually took about 2 1/2 years for them to not be red anymore. But they are better than the major bat wings I had. Now I need to tone up some, but I am happy with my results. I will take some pics and post them as soon as i can! Audree

No,it doesn't make me feel jittery at all. I am very sensitive I cant even drink coffee or my heart races. It has green tea in it but not enough to make me feel it. It gives me more of a natural energy type feeling. I am down to 150 now. Only 5 pounds to go to my goal.

I feel great!
I didn't want to get another fill, since I slime on almost all my food, but I think my metabolism slowed down a lot since being banded. The Quickslim30 has definitely raised it up. I am doing the happy dance!!!:clap2:
