  1. Use sweets as a treat 1 day/wk. This works for me. Even though I fall off the wagon. I immediately start over. Sometimes I trip at lunch, I do right for dinner. Call for your fill, you need one. This will help as well. I had to be unfilled and gained 30+ pounds. I had to start over from the beginning. You can do it!!! How much do you want to lose? Tell me a little more. Do you exercise?

  2. Meekie this is my first time posting & I really need some band friends. I have been secretive about it with everyone except for my mother, niece, and a clost friend. I am really a private person. Next week I would have had my band for 1 year and I have lost 40 pounds. I am a bit down today because I have gained 5 pounds. I missed my fill last month because of schedule conflicts. Need advice.

  3. Sorry pressed button to soon..lol. Any way congrats on losing weight in the 6 month waiting. I didn't lose any.

  4. don't be nervous about the fills they are not that bad... they get easier as the weight drops off... good luck

  5. It's so wonderful to hear things are going so well for you. I pray you continue to have great success with your weight lost. Great job!

  6. I just had my first fill yesterday (my surgery was also Jan 14th). I'd lost sufficient weight so it wasn't necessary but I felt like i could REALLY eat so I went through with it.

  7. I am a low bmi (29) but QUICKLY heading the wrong direction. Just had a serious back injury and can't run anymore. That was the only thing that helped my weight/food battle. Am grateful that Dr. Hollis agreed to the surgery. Thanks for the well wishes!

  8. I was 265 and now I am 235. I did get down to 209 but gained some weight since I have back to Michigan. How are you doing with your band?

  9. Thanks for adding me :) Today I am on my way to the Doctor. They found out that I am Insulin Resistant.My Doctor wants me to go on this med call Metformin. She said I might loose weight on it. I am still going through the process for this surgery. I feel alittle alone at this. I am not telling my family about the surgery. I dont want to worry my Mom.

  10. Hello All Bandsters. It's been a while...like 4 mos since I talked to anyone. Lost about 40#s but actually need another fill. I contemplated loosing on my own but had been maintaining between 103 and 109 kg's Started at 123.1. Now I need my next fill which is Monday 21 Feb 11. The cold months sure puts a damper on appetites. Gearing up for some serious weight loss now. READY AGAIN.

  11. thanks very much =o) how do I get the weight loss tracker on my profile... So that I can track my current weight and the weight I've lost?

  12. Surgery 8/31/2010

    Original weight 360#

    Weight as of first fill (2/8/2011) 257.5#

  13. WOW i just saw that you're 5'3 and weighing in the 130's?!? I'm the same height and my goal weight is 135! You are doing so great!!!!

  14. Hello RussianBandit, I'm actually working with NYU weight management as well. So I happy to see someone give feedback on them, I have my last appointment this coming Friday and I meet the surgeon Monday. So I'm excited and scared all rolled into one, so how does it work when you meet with the surgeon they gave you a tentitive surgery date pending approval from your insurance company? Thank You:)

  15. I was the same weight you were when i decided to get the band (325 @ 6'1) I losted around 10lbs before I was actually band and within 6 months I am down 55 pounds. It seems like a slow process, but I thank God I am not the same person. You have done an outstanding job. I too have the walk off the pounds video. I do enjoy it. You work it girl!

  16. Thanks. I did back pedal a bit and gained 15 lbs I guess. My husband is in Korea and I was bouncing around but now im stable at my parents and getting back on track.

  17. hey there..i still dont have a date i called and was told i needed to wait 2 months for a consultation date..i weight 240 idd like to be at least 150 so a good 90 pounds if i loose more that would b great..how much do u want to lose?

  18. Hi, my name is Ann. I am pending approval for the procedure. I thought I'd join to gain more insight on life after the procedure.

  19. IT WAS VERY NICE! I TOOK MY SON FOR SPRING BREAK.MY SURGEON WAS DR. SARKER FROM LOYOLA MEDICAL CENTER IN MAYWOOD. I THINK I NEED TO GO FOR A FILL THOUGH, I HAVE BEEN STUCK WITHOUT LOSING WEIGHT FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS AND ITS VERY DISCOURAGING :( I HOPE CAN GET BACK ON TRACK SOON.

  20. Ok girl...I'm back again for a visit ;) I'm getting a body lift and a arm lift on Thursday!! How's everything going with you? I saw your post about not wanting to lose more weight...I'm with you!!

  21. i am trying not to get frustrated but sometimes its just so hard and say why did i do this and why aren't i losing more weight...i dont expect to come off all at once, but maybe a lil more a week would be great. if i am losing inches i certainly dont even see the change in clothing...still same size pants and shirts. even tho i lost 12 lbs...ughhhh...lol

  22. Thanks so much for your kind words and support. Yes, I have been feeling a lot better since I had some of the fluid taken out. I just need to be careful because I can tell I am able to eat more food. I don't want to gain any of my weight back from my unfill. Honey, it looks like you are doing a wonderful job. I am so proud of you! Again, thanks. PS. I work out really hard at the gym weekly.

  23. Hi! I am doing pretty well how are you? I feel great most of the time as long as I keep following the rules. :) Weight loss is pretty steady at 2 lbs a week...so I am pretty happy with that.

  24. Hi. Although I was banded 4 years ago, I am new to this site. I lost 89 lb and have gained 10 back, so I am considering going for a fill. I have not seen the band doc for 15 months!. Would love to hear from anyone who has had their band for awhile and how they are doing. My endocrinologist said that there is no evidence for bands past 5 years. ?? I know of alot of band people who have lost tb

  25. come on weight loss !!!!!! not feeling encouraged...
