:clap2: After nearly 2 years of fighting with the insurance company -- I finally had my surgery - November 29, 2006. Every day is a new and wonderful experience for me. I never knew how much more fun I could have if I wasn't carrying all that extra weight. I am down 42lbs and 2 sizes. I had my first fill on January 22nd and can't wait for my next one on Feb 19th.

I live in Tampa, Fl and my doctor is Dr. Murr at Tampa General. He's a doll !!

Congratulations, Curvy, and welcome to LBT!! :rockon:

Hi Curvey Me, It sounds like you are doing well. Congrats on your weight loss! You are doing great! I was banded on 1/30/07;therefore I am 2 weeks post banding. I am doing really well. I haven't weighed myself yet. I am seeing my doctor on Thursday,so I'll get weighed then. Anyway, keep up the good work-Gigi:)

Congrats and welcome to LBT!

that's great curvy. Tell me what you eat during the day and how often.

Congrats. You are doing fabulous. Keep up the good work.

hey Lafosse,

I try and eat my carbs in the morning. I start off with a small protein shake at home. I have a couple of crackers (6) with about an ounce of cheese at around 9am. If I am still hungry I eat yogurt at 10am. I have a salad for lunch with chicken, eggs or cheese with a bottle of water. at about 3pm I have a snack - cheese or fruit or pretzels or tea. I have dinner about 8pm - I usually have meat or veggies or a big salad. I don't eat anything after dinner.
