:bored :bored :bored well well I guess this site has nobody from the chatt. area and let me also guess that no body has been banded at memorial hos. by dr. fromm-paynter-or ponce?? Geez I sure feel like the lonesome stud here lol.

I don't know, though, it might be funny working with a surgeon who saw me naked!! HA HA!!

I wondered if I was the only person who thought of that. Everytime I have to see him, I think of the fact that he knows what I looked like naked!

Are any of you attending the monthly support meetings at GBI? I have been to all but one of them (on vacation in March) since I was banded.

By the way, the "black headed chick" is Tiffany. :-)

I wasn't sure. I forget the names of the people up there. I kind of thought Tiffany was the other nurse. I like her alot(the other nurse) - I think she has a really good demeanor.

Just remember - I am the handsome intelligent one.......

I kid I kid....

Are you getting filled today? What time? I will be there for a fill at 1:30.

I thought I spotted someone handsome and remarkably intelligent while I was there.

I am so excited that I have lost a total of 58 lbs. as of today. I had a fill today and had never been more ready.

how is everyone else doing?

I was trying to pay attention to the names of the people Brooke was calling back. What is your name punkster?

When I got my fill, Brooke said on a scale of 1-10, I have a fill of three. I think it was her way of saying she put in 3 cc's. I know their policy about telling patients how much fill they have.

That is great about your fill and your weight loss. I am so ready for my fill. I went from having some restriction to being wide open. I have been starving from morning to night. The only thing that is saving me is I don't take anything extra to work with me to eat. If I did, I would be snacking all day.:thumbup:

I am really jealous of you all! I had surgery before most of you, but everyone has lost more than me!

You have done great! I just weighed a lot more than you at the start. Once I hit your initial BMI, the weight loss slowed down dramatically.

Yea, that's what a lot of people said. I also didn't have to do a preop diet like most of you did. I was hoping to be below 200 by now, but I have been stuck the last few weeks.

Im sorry you are feeling bad carriec. i definitely have more than you to lose and you are only a couple of pounds away from onederland. you will be there before you know it.

My pre-op diet still accounts for more than half of my current weight loss. i had been getting discouraged but I just had my 6th fill so i am hoping and am told that things should speed up a little.

I will be thinking of you.

Thanks! I am getting a fill on Wednesday so hopefully that will for sure take me to wonderland!!

how is everyone doing? loving my fill! :scared2:

I am glad that your fill is holding. I am going to ask that they check my fluid level at my appointment this week. I feel like I don't have a band right now. I don't know what is going on.

Anyone having a fill on Wednesday?
