Had my LAP BAND done on 11-26-2007 in Buffalo, NY at Buffalo General Hospital by Dr. Aaron Hoffman. I've have had no problems what-so-ever and the support from Dr. Hoffman has been FANTASTIC. He is the BEST doctor ever! I would recommend anybody from the Buffalo, Rochester, NY area to have Dr. Hoffman perform the BAND! GREAT DOC!:eek:

Hi Linda, glad to see you checking in, You are so right on, it is more of a head thing....I can eat and know i am full, and keep on eating cause it tastes good..what time were u at hoffmans, i was there at 12:30

Jenn, your not alone, you have us, I don't attend the monthly meetings (ashamed) I just know everyone from this site. I did meet linda and rain at the office once. you are just as much a part of this band family as anyone.

WOW jenn you lost 10 lbs in the last month, you've got to give me your daily menu, if I could lose 10 lbs i would be in onederland!!!!

Vicki - this was a bad day with a lot of food, but this is the basics of what I eat every day... this was from my journal, so I'm getting between 6-800 cals a day and 70-80g protein. My fill is what lets me do this. I have lost 31lbs since July 30th. Plus I walk 5 miles a day and was doing water aerobics but right now I'm changing to weight training. So as you can see, I dropped a bunch really quick from 7/30 to 8/12 with the fill, I'm now leveled off, that's why I track measurements

Jenn, you are totally motivated, I don't think I could be so regimented. I was told that once you drop under 1100 cal. a day your body stops losing? I don't measure anything or weigh anything but myself, I am just aware of what I am eating but not how much. I lost 8 lbs this past 6 weeks, I just feel it is not coming off fast enough...

I think that is why I think I've slowed down, but I had a 3oz chicken tender in my lettuce for lunch and put some ground turkey in my egg this am, once a week i eat more then back off. that is why i'm changing up my workout too, but I'm at home and have tons of time to exercise, which is how i lost so quicklyin the beginning. I have not had any junk or sugar since July 30th, and I just keep saying don't do it or you will get the taste back

well whatever your doing it seems to be working for you...

wouldn't it be nice if it was an exact science?

i saw you linda...but i didnt get out till 11am and had to get to work

who's going to the support group meeting?

I've just been thinking that I really need to get back on track. I need to start journaling everything again and get back to the excercise. Anyone want to join me jumping back on the wagon?

Hey anyone know what happened to Judyanticola? Where is she?

I think she got pi**ed off cause people didn't always agree with her opinions. I got that impression from her last posting..

I need to do something Rain I have been struggling since my last unfill, no more heartburn, but I am back up to 209.7 this a.m. :tt1: Couldn't my weight have stalled after onderland??? I hate journaling, but maybe I should start. It just seems like a big pain in the a** to me....:thumbup:
