Does bcbs pay for tummy tucks? I could never afford it on my own.

Story of my life

My husband says he loves me how I am and have been, but please don't loss the rear! Lol

I guess it's a risk you take with any surgery, not just the band.

I got band 6/19/12, but I have only lost 40 lbs with band and 12 lbs before band. I keep going up and down the scale. I'm wondering this is normal? Maybe I'm over filled? I lost count how my CC's I have... I have a friend at work and she has less CC's and doing great. I keep slimming every now and then. What do you recommend? I exercise 4 days a week and eat 1/6 of what I used to eat. Which is not much. I keep thinking this was a mistake. I was 100% sure when I was band and new this was not going to be easy, but brother.... I need guidance!!" PLEASE!

Great advice, I will keep it all in mind. I feel that my Dr. Is not as sympathetic since he had the lap band and lost a ton of weight. I will started counting calories. Write it all down to see what's going on. I promise I will exercise every day. I will be in onederland this time next year! (God willing)! '

Awesome! I only hope I can get to onederland. Be proud.

4cc's in my 14 cc band.

Okay thanks!

I am in need of work clothes, I'm in Alabama

I was thinking of the stuff i never wear because of my weight... I would love to wear a shorts next summer in public. I also would love to get sexy negligee and look great. I've only lost 28lbs, but maybe this time next year i could surprise my husband! oh and i would love to wear heels! I don't feel comfortable wear heels caz of how heavy i am. i hope you write stuff for me to read, keeps me motivated! Love the support group here! Xxoo

So i took these pictures kind of freaked me out! [ATTACH]24966[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]24965[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]24965[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]24966[/ATTACH]

Was band 6/19/12. I have been struggling so much. I need to step up my game. Lost 6lbs in 6 weeks, but i now i need to work harder. I promise myself that 1.i will eat my protein first 2. Veggies next 3. Exercise daily st least 30 minutes 4. No empty Calories! I will see about more and add to my list.

I do 8.

Maybe it's a reflection on something.

I'm 32, but i feel like I'm 18 lol. Private message me. I had my surgery 6/19 and have lost 30 lbs.

It's a 14 cc band.

I got my 3rd fill. I'm at 8 cc's, i think i am at my sweet spot! Or at least close. I'm so happy! i have a good friend that gets band on the 4th. Now I'll have a band buddy!

It's a 14 cc band. I feel it alot more, but maybe one more fill of 1cc and pray it will start to work. Hope you start to feel it more.

Good luck

Yey! Good for you. I went to get my 3 fill today! I think I'm going to need more, but for now I'm at 8cc's in my 14cc band. Good luck on your journey.

Thursday October 25 i go for 3rd fill! i hope it hits a sweet spot.... Please Lord! I am sooo frustrated. I'm hungry every 2 hours . I'm just disappointed i feel im going insane! Pray for me friends! :"(

I want to see if i can get a band buddy. I'm having a difficult time and need guidance. I'm 4 months out and have not lost any weight in about 6 weeks. I have 2 children a 12 year old with autism and fatty livers disease. My daughter is 8. Been with my husband 14 years, married with him only a year. Lol. I work for a school and love my job. Send me a private message if interested.

I guess i feel sad because i wasn't really told that it was going to be this hard. for me it is taking too long. I just pray to God i hit a sweet spot soon or I'll just go crazy! Banister HELL SUCKS!
