you are doing so fantastic. I'm completely stuck at the present weight. I had to go for an unfil so I don't have restriction. I'm losing like a snail. But I'm losing. I go back for a fill in a little over a week so maybe i'll finally get back to real losing. I'm so proud of you. Especially with all the traveling and family stuff. keep it up girl!!!!

big hugs!

Thanks Doll! I have been working hard. And I have got a lot of restriction too, to keep me in line, lol. Why did you get unfilled? Is everything okay? And I say, as long as you are losing, its all good. Be sure to get your band filled back up. It really is the key to its power. Take care of you!

I was having issues with pain and not being able to keep things down. They unfilled me to let it calm down. I should get filled next visit but I know he won't give me a whole lot since he's worried that I'll be back like I was before. I'm trying to focus on the positives and just be glad I have a lot more control over food than what I used to. I don't think about it all the time. I've definitely made lifestyle changes. I don't even know what it's like to have the amount of food I used to eat.

I am so very happy you are doing so great. You look so happy in your pictures. It will be so nice for you to be able to enjoy your son even more. I'll try to keep in touch more. Take care.

Well I am glad for safety's sake you did what you did. And you will get back to where you need to be on your fills. And yes, control over eating is an AMAZING POSITIVE! So you are already doing great!

I have been struggling with a mucous problem for the last 6 weeks. With the crazy weather and traveling, its no wonder. This has given me much grief on keeping some things down as well. But, I just recently got some new medicine for it, and had my fluoroscope done with my Doc. Everything is good. Says I will probably be at this volume for awhile since I am in the zone. Keep your head up girl. Keep exercising. And one fill at a time you will be where you need to be. BIG HUGS!!! And I know I have been bad too about keeping in touch : ( I will try to be better too. Take care:smile:

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
