I think that is great! Very encourging! Treat yourself to something new. I bought a few things one size down. I have three more days until my band!

My surgery is less than two weeks away and I am getting really nervous. Ease my mind, will you?

banded on Dec. 29th - decided last week :\

So I'm officially 3 hours in to Christmas Eve, 3 days until banding, this is my last night to work for a week... I AM SO EXCITED!!!

Couch to5k-Week 8 Day1 -Brisk five-minute warmup walk, then jog 2.75 miles (or 28 minutes). 10 mins Elliptical. Upper body weights for 10 mins. Abs.

Today is week 4 for me, so that means intrucing meats to my diet. Today the pain in my chest and shortness of breath is a little better. I ate some turkey lunch meat and some peanuts, feel a little tight but everything appears to be going down

Had my refill yesterday, already feel some restrictriction today. Plan is get used to band next couple of weeks. Then in 2011, no excuses, Finish this thing in get to goal.

Since there has been no school here for the last two day, I've been busy studying for finals since they are this week. Also, I've been spending a lot of my time thinking about LAP-BAND. My fourth month appointment is December 14th and from there I will be able to move on. It seems as if I've been waiting forever for this to happen. I'm glad that now I can finally get this ball moving forward

2 week’s post-op – all is going well. I am down another 7.5 lbs since surgery on Feb 9 for a total of 22.5 lbs.

i am feeling good finally !!!! lost 28 pounds in 5 weeks !

Stupid liquid diet. All I can think about is food! I think my surgeon might be a bit sadistic to put me on a 2 week clear liquid pre-op diet. Starving!

i feel like myself again! port site not hurting anymore and gas pains in left shouulder almost 100% gone!!!YES!!!!! COMING UP ON WEEK 3!

I had to call and change my appointment.. I wasn't schedule to see the Dr. until August. However, this weekend I was able to eat things that I normally couldn't have eaten.. It was like I didn't even have the band.. I haven't lost any weight in two weeks either.. I am kinda of upset about that.. but I am going to try to make sure that I use myfitnesspal more..trying to be positive instead of negative.. i think i need a check up..

I have rheumatoid arthritis and it has decided to settle in my jaw. Treatment? 2 week liquid diet.

Haven't lost much the last week and a half even though I'm kicking my butt at the gym. Oh well. I'm down a clothing size and I am under a 100 in terms of how much I need to lose

Hello Everybody new to the site....I will be having surgery the second week in July cant wait

Tomorrow I start my 2 week pre- op diet... Here we go!

Had half a cc removed last week and I feel GREAT! Energy level is back up, exercise back up and attitude much improved. I got too caught up in "not" eating too much! I'm up 3 pounds, but I know that will come off as I'm able to get back up to speed with my exercise! Sometimes all your really need is a little removed!
