Dr. Marsden, True Results Richardson/Dallas Tx?

I already had 1 fill, I have 4cc in my band now, I go tomorrow for another fill. Iam not loosing weight like I was at first, I wonder if the solution dissolves some. I've lost about 40lbs, but I think I should have lost more. I can eat just about anything. I get hungry within 2 hours after I eat, then I'll eat fruit, veggies or something like pudding of applesauce. I guess I'll see what happens tomorrow. -
I get the same thing, some of my friends and family members think that I should have done it on my own, (including my husband) I get the wispers and looks, but I just ignore them, one of my very best friend told me that I look older. My mom was against it at first, but she has came around. My children are supportive. I say just ignore people that have to say negative things. Just hang in there and do it for yourself not for everybody else, there are a lot of supportive people on this forum. Wish you the best of luck on whatever you decide to do.

Sounds like your doing great, how do you know if you need a fill or not, I was thinking it felt like there are some things you can not eat, but I can eat anything, I read about restrictions, dont know what that fells like. I've have two episodes of "sticking", 1 was a hard boiled egg, (I guess it was the yolk), and the other was a piece of watermelon, (I swollowed to big of a bite), the egg was the worse, it lasted about 10 minutes. Have you had any episodes of "sticking"? Iam not using My Fitness Pal, maybe I should, I just try to eat low fat and sugar free foods, I also stay away from carbs, basically anything white I will not eat it, bread, rice, Pasta etc... Are you exercizing? My husband and I walk 2 miles a day, it takes us 45mins. We started hiking at The Audubon Dallas, 7171 Mountain Creek Parkway Dallas, Tx. 75249, its quite a hike, but we enjoy it. I eventually would like to start jogging, I havent jogged since Highschool. Keep up the awesome job!!! -

I also had Dr. Mardsen, and my surgery was also on April 5th 2013, in Richardson, Tx. I had to be there at 9:30am, my husband and kids were all there with me, I was so scared. I've list 35lbs since then, it seams to have slowed down, I go for my next appt. on May 29th, hopefully I feel more restriction. I have 4cc in my band now. -
