Hey everyone..its been awhile since I last posted.. Well currently I am down 55lbs. I havent done the inches part anymore but at last count it was about 16 or so. I am still at 3 fills (8cc). I found a clinic in the USA that is close to home that is willing to do the fills, so next time I need one I will be going there. I have gotten back into a depression and am working on getting out of it. there have been alot of things going on lately in this life of mine. Its been a struggle but I am getting there. Glad to see everyone is doing well, congrats to the newest bandsters!!

Take care.. will be back soon

I am sorry to hear that you have fallen into a depression, I know the feeling and wish you all the best. I have always found that writing has helped me through the depression I have been through. Take care of yourself. I hope the people around you are supportive and give you lots of hugs!!!

55lbs and 16"... that is wonderful!!! You have to be very proud of yourself, I know I am!!!

Hi msrobby73: So glad you have touched base with us again. Depression is a hard thing to combat but hopefully the band remained your friend until you wond the battle. I was banded in Feb as well and have lost very little, but the fact my eating patterns are changing and I find that I rarely look to food to console me I feel I have won half the battle. I am now starting to work on exercise program. Hope you are taking on your battles one at at time. Makes them a bit easier to conquer. Where are you getting your fills. I also have that problem. Doddie

Hi msrobby, glad you came back. You know that if you need an ear you got plenty hear. Chin up, shoulders back, peepers forward and take one day at a time. There are better days ahead.

Thnaks Lferland... Things will get better. I am proud of my accomplishment so far.. And BTW you are doing awsome too

Thanks Doddie!! I am getting them (fiils) done in Duluth Minnesota. Your doing awsome!

Donna..yeah I know I got you guys thanks for the reminder.. Things will get better. I will be back more often

Hi MSRobby: Really happy to hear you are back in the ring and fighting the bad guys. Depression is no easy problem to solve but with the "gang" we can all help each other. Doddie
