Way to go Idaho!!!!

What a big weight change - I'm sure it was a moment to get on the scale and have it move in the right direction.

Hello to all May-Dazers out there....Well, for me, One month (surg date 05/05/05) has come and gone. I have had my first fill...I am down 33 pounds....I started Curves yesterday and I feel great! I dont know if the fill is working....we will see. I understand that it takes a couple of days for it to kick in. I just ate dinner. Some chopped up chicken with salsa and cheddar cheese...looked nasty but tastes really good.

Okay...just checking in with ya'll

I was wondering how all the May Bansters were doing. :( I am now down 20 pounds but that's not "official per the doctor" but our scales measure the same so I will count it...lol. I don't go back til the 28th so I will have to keeping drinking the water, eating the protein and riding the exercise bike. Congrats May bandsters!!!!! Keep us all posted.

Hanna was banded on May 27 & she's down about 15 lbs. from before surgery. She's doing great & looking forward to eating food next week!

Hey May Bandsters....

I am dragging this thread up from the archives to check in on everyone...Hows it going?? I had surgery 5/5/05....(I like saying that date.) I am down about 48 pounds. I go for a check up and possible fill on 8/30...I am in between clothe sizes, so most of my jeans are too loose, then some of them are a bit too tight. I don't like anything to be too tight on my port scar. Shirts, I am still wearing a size 22-24 but my boobs are shrinking. Hopefully the shirt size will change soon. I have about 60 pounds to go till I reach my goal. I will be under 200 by the end of October...soo its going slow and steady. They say thats what wins the race, slow and steady......I have had two fills so far...I am up to 2.0 cc's right now. I think I need a touch to be added to that. I can eat regular portions right now. We will see what Dr Kwon thinks.....

All right guys...I look forward to hearing about you/from you all.....Hope all is well!

Hi Porclndoll,

I wanted to see if you were going to update the list, I never even saw the old May list until today. Here is my info: banded May 13,2005 Dr. Ortiz and Dr. Martinez. Thanks, Tracy

Hi to all my fellow May band buddies!!! I was banded 05-05-05

and am doing GREAT!!! I have had 2 fills so far, currently at 3.1cc in 4 cc band. Does that mean I cannot get very much more restriction????any way, I have lost 33 pounds so far and down to smaller clothes too. Why is it that my breasts have gotten so much smaller first??haha For the first time in years my stomach is smaller tahan my breast though and I'm kinda likin that.

My divorce will be final in a couple of weeks and he said he cannot tell that I have lost weight. everyone else has noticed, even people who I only casually know have noticed!!

I hope every one is doing good and feeling better about themselves. Has anyone else noticed how much more energy you have?

BUBBLESSTINA~ My band`day sista!!! You sound like you are doing phenomonal! Good for you! And your ex is just being hurtful! You can absolutely tell when someone loses 33 pounds!!! Good for you! You rock! Im with you in the fact that your belly is finally smaller than your boobs. I was just completely ROUND at one point! Couldn't tell where some things started and other things ended!!! I do feel better now that the weight is going away! Energy is coming up a bit. I have been in a funk these last few weeks so once that lifts, I will be more energetic then. PLUS fall is coming! That is the time for me to shine! I always do everything better in the fall....maybe cause I am a fall baby? I dunno.....But I expect my weight loss to pick up a bit then and my energy to really go thru the roof. I have been loosing pretty steady since surgery....I am down just about 50 pounds and I have about 60 to go to reach goal!!! UGh! I will get there though!!!

I am only at 2.0 cc's right now as far as fills go. I have been having some problems over these last two weeks...almost PB'd for the first time, been getting stuck...eatting the wrong things....stress is a killer boy!!!! But I am back on the wagon and I have to face my surgeon on Tuesday...No fill for me that day, but I am okay with that. I need to stay right where I am till I get all these things under control .....

Tina~ Typically the moderators of the board update these lists...I think an edit just needs to be done and your info just added to the list.

BEST WISHES TO YOU BOTH!!
