Thank you for adding me. I just started my journey with the lapband. I was banded on 8/23/11.... If you have any questions feel free to ask me.

I have a little restriction but not a lot. I know I need a fill. I have been making good food choices as well or I work them into my calories for the day. I have not weighed myself so I don't know how much I have lost yet. I will find out next week at the dr's office. Work is good. I have two nice pre k groups. I am happy this year so far.

How are you doing??? Did you get your fill and how do you feel??? I think I need one as well. I have been using myfitpal on my phone to keep track of everything I eat. I try to stay at 1,200 calories a day.

How much weight have you lost??? I hope to chat soon.

Good luck on your surgery this week!!! I hope all is going well with the pre op diet. I hated every minute of my pre op diet.

How is the weight loss going???

My doctor said you can't work out until six weeks post op. You have to heal. Okay I eat three times a day. It may not be much but I do eat. I skyped you... so add me as a contact on skype ok??

17 lbs is great!!!! I don't think I lost that much yet and I am in my second week of post op!!!! Dang what are you doing??? Share!!

How are you doing???

I can not eat as much as I did before and I am happy about that!!!

Take it one moment at a time and know that food is your addiction. Every time you get ready to eat... Ask yourself why?? Are you hungry or is this your addiction. It works for me... I am an addict for food. Miss you and talk to you soon.

Work was great!!!! I love when the students come.... I then realize why I love my job when I see my new set of babies. I am sorry to hear about the lost of power during Irene..... A lot of people on Long Island lost power for a week... I think that is crazy!!! I am still on soft foods and I am eating my three meals a day and drinking my water. I can get fruit down and mac and cheese.

Thanks for adding me!!!! I had my surgery on August 23rd..... I am doing well. How are you doing???

I don't own a scale so I don't get off and on one. Once I passed a certain weight I stopped stepping on scales.

Second week post op and I feel good. I went to work today and the only problem happens to be my pants rubbing my belly button. The incision area is still tender.

I hope you are doing well!!!!

I hope all is good!! Just saying Hellooooo.... I am down 8lbs...

I just wanted to let you know I used Dr. Holover in NY...Long Island and he was great. You may not see him often but you see the same people always and you know who does what in the office. I don't know if you travel but if you are looking for a recommendation.

It is a week and I feel good..... I can fit my jeans that I could not fit last Summer!!! I am happy about that!!!

Your mom had it too??? How is she???

Hey Girl.... The first is Wednesday are you ready???? The surgery is really not bad at all. I thought the pain would be worst then it was. I am wishing you the best of luck and hope to hear from you soon.

Day six of post op..... I feel really good!! I have not weighed myself to see if I lost any weight. However, I am so happy that I made a decision to change my life for the better that I am still thrilled about that.

I hope you are doing well with not smoking..... You can do it!!! Just know that you are doing all this stuff because you LOVE you!!

Hello, how are you doing? I have been resting since the surgery.

You was right... Dr. Holover is a great surgeon. I am doing well and I am having little to no pain. I joined Bally's gym.... Do u have a membership to a gym. I was thinking that we could support each other on our journey.

You should call your doctor.... I was banded on Tuesday and they have called to check on me. The hospital and the dr office said that I should be able to tolerate liquids with no problems.... Call you doctor.

Hello Shonette... I hope all is well and I hope to read something from you soon. You are always encouraging and uplifting..... I always like to read or hear a positive word. With all that being said you look beautiful!!! You have worked hard and look terrific.
