Did you ever find out about the fills?

I went in for my first fill and didn't get it because I was losing without it. Jeannie says it is billed like a visit, Lindsey told me the first 3-4 were included in the cost. I guess Lindsey was wrong. Doesn't do me any good to argue about it, I suppose. I have to have it, so I'm going to have to pay I guess. I go next Monday for one.

Thanks. :thumbup: I'm going to insist on a fill this time. When I was on liquids and mushies I had no appetite because everything just kinda got gross after a while. Now that I'm back on regular food, I'm hungry!!!:cool2:

Hi everyone. I was just thinking, since we're all right here in the Parkersburg area, we should plan a get together! It would be fun to get to know everyone and compare stories about what we're going through. What do you think? :)

We should do that sometime...lol but I'd like to be banded first so I feel more part of the group lol

By the way I was down another 2.5 lbs Friday. :)

A get together sounds fun! Even though I'm months away from surgery it'd be great motivation to see all you skinny, healthy people! So how do we find people? Any idea?

p.s. Amazing revelation from my food diary....know how many timbits are a serving? ONE! Holy cow! They're 34 calories a piece...I was shocked!

Hi guys! Just checking in here to get support. Hubby and I have started our 6-month diet, working with Lindsey. Wow...once you write things down it's pretty amazing how many calories there are in food. I found out that one timbit is a serving...I used to eat maybe 20 at a time! I'm lucky, the people I work with are super supportive! They're writing down their food too and almost everyone is using a pedometer and encouraging everyone to walk more.

I haven't done stellar the last 3 days. Haven't written down a thing. I hope I don't get flogged to bad! My 20 month old has strep throat and has just felt horrible. Fevered, crying, needy. I've eaten, but I honestly can't tell you what. She's finally on the mend and I'll be better!

I wish other people who see Dr. Kaplan would post here! We could form our own little community.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
