Hi all...Its been a long time since I talk about my banding... I lost around 86lbs, PCOS was under control, getting my period on my own and was soo much happy then. I know I should not say that until you hear what in the hell I went through. We tryed for 8 months to have a baby and last May we had IVF and Bam TWINS....Oh God! Bedside the hell the doctors offices making me crazy and I was put on bed rest at 22weeks and gave birth at 25 weeks! Thats right 25 weeks. I had a boy and girl. Christopher was 1.9lbs and Jenna was 1.4lbs. It was hell back and forwth to the hospital and the unknown. My son almost did not make it; but we had faith. 4 months in the hospital and they came home; they are beauitful and full of life. wonderful as can be; GOD was very good to us and blessed us with these 2 little joys. Now its time for me to get back into the swing of things again. I gained 57lbs back not just from the pregnancy, just stress. I only gained 21lbs with it, not bad. I am just asked for some support on how to get back into everything again , exersieing, eating right and trying to stay forcused with 2 little 9months olds. I just went back for a fill and now have 2cc in and still hungry and no weight loss; and the worse part I just found out I only have a 4cc band. So now if these dont not work then I need a new one! GREAT........I am not happy and I dont want to get that far, so please anyone with there stories or was of doing things please let me know! Ann Marie:thumbup:

Hi everyone! I having my surgery June 28 and I cant believe its almost here...I'm scared and my excitement has taken over....I know that it will help my health and make me feel better; but im just worried....I have PCOS and im so happy that something like surgery will help my symptoms ..Ive had this problem since i was 13; now 30...so I feel its time to take over...and after all is done I can have children hopefully myself not drugs... If any one would help on my diet for the next week before surgery....liquid i have to start next Thursday! Pudding, jello, ices & shakes...but the soups and yogurt is getting to me....I love both; but cant seem to find the right ones.. So i just need a little support (my family is 100% support; but its hard when your the 1 going for the surgery)...from others who had the surgery in the past...11 people i know through family & friends had the surgery; but they dont have much to say....Thanks all:paranoid
