  • Chris, good job. You are doing great. Cerrin, you too. We need to keep it up. Mine is slow but steady. My pre-surgery loss is making it slower for me I think. I've only had two fills. I see the doct

I put 40 because the dr office scale said I lost 44 but my scale says 34 so I did a happy medium...lol

I am definitly tighter in this fill. I am not pbing and getting stuck more often. It is my fault. I know that. I have to really work on not eatting so fast. It is a hard habit to break.

Chris, good job. You are doing great. Cerrin, you too. We need to keep it up. Mine is slow but steady. My pre-surgery loss is making it slower for me I think. I've only had two fills. I see the doctor the end of next week but I don't think I need another fill at this time. I am not hungry between meals yet.

You guys are all doing great! I am so jealous. I get my second fill in June, so hopefully i get to see some results...at least a little more frequent.

Hey! Did you guys know that if you click on the number of people that voted in the poll, it will tell you who is included in that number? That is so cool!

Sorry, I get easily distracted and am easily amuzed...:)

Oh I'm glad you noticed about the numbers . . . I tried that and love it because I was always wondering who was who on the last polls . . . you beat me to the "post"!

Everyone is doing GREAT! Keep it up. I might get a slight fill on June 4th - it would be my second. I'm suddenly finding I can't do chicken at all .. . I lose it every time no matter how careful and slow. Oh well - I'm hoping for LOTS of seafood next week! I leave for Alaska on Sunday (5-11).

Thankfuly I have to be really careful with breads. Thankfuly!

I am finally at the point I have been waiting for. I have to work real hard to get veggies in though.

I've been trying to move this next 1.5lb for weeks now, so I could have clicked the 40+ option but it doesn't seem to want to move. It's been 6 weeks since my last fill and I think it is time for another one, as my portion sizes are gradually increasing again :) I just want to be able to FINALLY say that I have LESS than 100lb to lose!

You go girl! your almost there!

After this last fill I just feel great!

I hope I keep this restriction for a while.

I have lost right at 70 pounds per my home scales, go back to the dr. for a fill next week, the 15th, we will see what his scales say, his are always a bit heavier than mine, so I stick with my scales :cursing: so far I am very happy with my loss, and I LOVE my Band!!

I am hoping to hit 60 pounds by my 5 month bandiversary on the 18th. That's only 4.3 left to lose in 10 days. I can do it! LOL Actually, I'd love to have it gone by the end of the month in time for my daughter's graduation from HS. Even if it's not gone, I'm very pleased with my progress. (P.S. I have not lost the total since surgery, but since starting my pre-op diet in October)

I am not having nearly as much luck as you ladies and I am doing everything I need to do and I have only lost 12 lbs. since 12-12-07. boohoo!!

Fanny... I am with you in that I have noticed my portions are gradually getting bigger and bigger!!! I get my second fill tomorrow and I can't FREAKIN wait because I need it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Want2behot, do you need a fill? Do you drink with your meals? How much excercise are you getting?

And do you eat bulky solid meals?
