Hi everyone I know its been a over 3 weeks since I last posted but I have been so busy with my inlaws 50th wedding anniversary

that I have not even had much time for myself.. but here is the good news last time I posted I could not get over that darn 200 mark I was so frustrated for about 3weeks straight I did not even see the scale move at all then one day ta da it did.. today I am now 195 lbs yippee!! I also went on wednesday to get my fill down in TJ and I asked my doctor how many cc's my band held and found out that it holds 9 cc's very interesting everyone I know thier bands hold like 4cc's does anyone elses band hold that much.. I was just wondering why I did not get the other one like everyone else has and of course I forgot to ask duh... I got a really good fill this time and I think thats all I am going to need for quite a while I hope... I am at 6.5 cc's at this time and I eat very small meals now.. before he gave me this last fill I was able to eat much larger portions and was not satisfied that I was not restricted enough but now I know the difference much different...

well anyway thanks everyone for listening I am very happy and working hard at keeping this real for the first time now I am finally really noticing a difference in the way my clothes fit they are getting much looser that is the best feeling.. I know that I can wear a 16 comfortably and the 14 is right behind that....

:D :D :) :) :) :)

That is fantastic! I am happy for you. Onderland is a great place to be!

WooHoo!!! Onederland!!! Congratulations on a job well done! I think the Swedish band holds more cc's. That must be the one you have.

Thanks guys.. you know and I have to admit that actually being under 200 lbs has really picked up my spirits and got me really motivated to do better... I am trying even harder but dont get me wrong I will still have a peice of candy once in a while..

Congratulations Jeanie!!! :D Plateaus are so frustrating, but you finally beat it!

It must feel wonderful to be under 200 and fitting into smaller sizes. I can't wait to get to where you are... I think it would motivate me as well. I think you really have to hit a certain point to begin feeling like the band is really going to work. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten there yet.

Great job - when do we get to see some before and 'after' pics?

Congratulations Jeannie!!! That is wonderful that you got past that little hump in the road and are now below the 200 mark. Great job! Teresa

25 lbs. gone and below 200! Now that's wonderful!

Onederland is awesome ! Congrats to you. I can't wait to get there myself.

Whoo hooo!!!!! Congrats!!!

I am SOOOOO jealous.... BUT... I think this weekend is going to be my weekend to join you in ONEDERLAND! Keep your fingers crossed for me!!!

I don't even dream of Onederland! That's amazing.

Congrats' Now go buy some tight jeans!!!

Iv'e got the swedish band which can hold up to 9.5 cc's. The Vanguard (Inamed) can hold alot. I was just asking the doc about that one, He said most don't feel restriction till they're at about 5cc's?? I'd find out exactly which band you have.

Onederland!!! yippee
