I just wanted to share. I had my band in Jan 07. I have lost 29 lbs. Have cut my metformin pills in half, no heartburn or reflux. I was wearing a 44D and a 24/26. Now I am a 40C!!!!!! and this past weekend all I wore were size 16!!!!!!!!!!! It felt great. Everyone at the dog show I was at were amazed. Plus I ran the courses of agility the best I have ever done!!!!!!!!:whoo:

My band might be slower than most but I sure am reaping in the rewards!!!!!!!!

Thanks for being here and letting me share.

HELLO ALL JUST WANTED TO LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT I HAVE LOST 23# SINCE THE END OF MAY AND THAT INCLUDEDS THE 10DAY PREOP DIET. :whoo:I WAS JUST BANDED ON AUG 20TH YEAH... ALL IS WELL, FEEL GREAT SO FAR. TAKEING PAIN MEDICATIONS AND DOING FINE. I AM HAVING A LITTLE DIARRHEA THOUGH. IM SURE THAT IT IS NORMAL THOUGH. I HAVE STARTD CRUSHING MY METFORMIN AND MY ZOCORE AND PUTTING THEM IN WATER OR SUGER FREE COOLAID TO TAKE THEM IN THE AM. BOY THEY ARE BITTER AND TASTE NASTEY. HOPEFULLY WHEN I LOSE MORE WEIGHT, I WILL NOT HAVE TO TAKE THEM. I HAVE TWO MORE DAYS OF CLEAR LIQUID DIET AND THEN I CAN START ON THE FULL LIQUID DIET UNTIL I SEE THE DOCTOR ON AUG 28TH FOR MY FOLLOW UP. SO LOOKING FORWARD TO THE CREAMED SOUPS... I DID GO OUT AND PURCHASE THE MAGIC BULLET BLENDER TO HELP WITH THE FOOD TASKS AND SUCH.. WOW I DID'NT REALIZE THAT IT DOES SO MUCH STUFF. WELL THANKS FOR LISTENING,CHAT MORE LATER

:help:I NEED TO UPDATE MY WEIGHT LOSS TASK BAR, FROM THE TICKLE FACTORY AND I CANNOT REMEMBER HOW. COULD SOMEONE PLEASE WALK ME THROUGH IT STEP BY STEP, SO I CAN UPDATE IT TO THE 23# THAT I HAVE LOST AND NOT THE 6# WHAT IT STATES NOW. THAT IS A TOTAL OF 23# INCLUDING THE 6 # THAT IS ALREADY ON THE LITTLE FROGGING HOPPING DOWN THE POUNDS.:help:

Just double click on your ticker and it will bring you to the page to change it.

Congrats on your NSV. Good job!

Congrats on your weightloss! Phlyinphebee, I am getting my lap band on sept. 4th. Yea! I have 4 dogs and I also train in agility. It is so much fun! I can't wait until I can actually run around the course! I am so jealous of you! Take care!

Congrats!!!! That is AWESOME!

I look forward to the day I can get into a 16. Strangely I've lost almost 70 lbs ans STILL haven't changed sizes! Odd, huh? 30 lbs and you've changed a couple! How cool is that? That's wonderful!!

I keep telling myself that one day I'll just all of a sudden have a shift and my size will change drastically. At least that's what I'm hoping for.
