January 14, 200719 yr Dr. C. will determine the size of band you will have after he's in (you). It is determined by the stomach size or something like that. There is no difference on how they will preform. But now I have heard that Dr. C. is using a newer version too, so I can't comment on that one.
January 14, 200719 yr never give Cloe the benefit of the doubt... !!! It will be a foregone conclusion which road she takes!!! MMMMWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Ha, Ha, Yeah, and it's getting worse with age????...and like your one to talk:biggrin1: !!!
January 14, 200719 yr Hi Hugi they dont decide til they are "in there" (but not like cloes hubby!) it depends on the size of your actual stomach and how much fat is around it.
January 14, 200719 yr No abdominal crunches???? I got the okay to start pilates...I'm only 7 weeks post...... Where did you hear this from??? Doriana
January 14, 200719 yr I was surprised too Doriana....I was never told to wait that long to do any ab work (ie. situps, crunches etc). I was told 6 weeks and then just go with it depending on how you feel. I was WELL into it by the 3rd month! I wouldn't worry.
January 15, 200719 yr Thanks Yoda... I was starting to get worried, but I'm sure it's okay... Dr. Joffee's office said it was totally fine to work out and to go ahead with the Pilates class.. How are you doing Yoda? Where do you live? I'm in Woodbridge, Ontario... Have a great night. Doriana
January 15, 200719 yr I'm not too far from you....I'm up the 400 in the Barrie area. How am I doin'? Alright...but never as well as I'd like to be doin'!! LOL (loss wise that is!!!).
January 15, 200719 yr :confused: Hi Yoda.... I think you are doing great.... Do you use MSN chat? If you do, add me on... I'm usually on morning and night... Here is my email address: miele55@hotmail.com Take care and have a great week. What a horrible day outside today...... Ciao for now. Doriana.
January 15, 200719 yr No Doriana, I don't utilize MSN. Yes, winter has finally hit us, I think.....leaving in a few mins for work ...a lil' earlier than usual so that I can brave the elements!
January 15, 200719 yr Hi Yoda, Take care and be careful driving to work... It's very slippery out there. Cheers to a GREAT day. Doriana..:kiss2:
