Thanks, Gina! I appreciate your offer!

I hadn't thought about doing the audiobook thing; which is odd, when I drive across the state to visit my folks I always listed to audiobooks! LOL I might have to check out the audible.com site. I just got a Zune for Christmas and that might be a great option. :)

I agree -- hate driving to the "other side" no matter what side that is...

Good point!

Good Morning Hampton Roads, no posts for over a month, how is everyone doing?

Carla, I think that was my mother you met at your fill, she had on a pretty blue blouse and black slacks and the typical greatgrandma gray hair, LOL.

Gr8t, how are you doing?

Take care all.

HarleyNana,

That is so funny...what are the odds! She does look like the typical grandma but she sure is spry and she was telling Dr. T about her new car.

What a small world!

Carla

HarleyNana, I'm so anxious about getting banded. I start the pre op diet this Wednesday. Also, I see you live in Yorktown. So do I! In fact I went to the beach music concert on the river last night. I live in Foxwood. We're also close in age. (I'm 54) :(

HarleyNana, have you been satisfied with your results? How long did you have to wait before your first fill?:(

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
