I think yes, for me it made me realize how much and when I was doing it. Do not go into this thinking it's a cure all...... It's a tool, a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful tool that if used correctley works!!! It's nice to see more & more people with less than the marked 100 lbs to loose getting this wonderful invention. Good luck to you!!!

Wow, this brought back memories... Got to love bumping!!! Nice to see your doing so well Kathy. Tara

Whatever you do don't give up!!!! Remember the band is "just" a helper, it won't get you there alone... Get ya a good fill and I bet you will start feeling like you can do this.. Good luck to you, I know how hard the mental side of all this is.

One night for sure!!! Good luck!!

Great Job!!!!!!

Guess I Am One Of The Lucky Ones, I Have 2.5cc's In My Band And I Have Perfect Restriction....... The Biggest Way That I Can Tell Is That I Am Not HungrEy between Meals... And That's Eating Less Than Half Of What I Used To.. Start Out Slow And Get .5cc's From There, And Maybe You Will Get Your Sweet Spot Right Off The Bat.... Good Luck.. Oh Yeah I Forgot To Say I Am Loving The Restriction!!!!

Hip-hip-hip Band Hurray!!!!! Glad To Hear That All Went So Well For You.... Just Sip,sip,sip!!! I Know Your Going To Do Great!!! Tara

You Guys Are To Funny!!!! Kathy,lol You Crack Me Up.. Welcome Back Delara, I Have Missed Your Posts..

I can feel my port, but after my first fill it feels weird... By weird I meen not the same???? Hard to describe..

1. How long were you out of work? One week and a day 2. Explain to me what getting "stuck" feels like. I have never had this happen, and hoping it never will.. 3. How soon after surgery can you begin to excercise? I waited 2 weeks, and I started off slow, by just walking no heavy lifting.. I still shy away from heavy lifting I think it's a mental thing, I can see Delarla's photoes in my head...Not that that caused her problems but I am very protective of my little buddy.. 4. Were you afraid to eat after the surgery? Yes, a little but I got over it real quick 5. If you have a spouse/significant other.. How did they handle your weight loss? I could not or would not have wanted to do it without my DH, He has been my rock...And he is the only one that knows about my band... I think he loves my weight loss, but he loved me at a plus size too. I think I'm much happier so it makes his life hapier... Good luck to you!!!! I hope this helps

I have to tell ya, I would not want my port there.... I think it would bug me.... Just my two cents..... As far as a scar, you can't even see mine unless you are looking for it... I hope this helps you... Good luck in your jurney...

No straning for me at all.....Egg drop soup is sold at chinese restarants... It makes you feel full..At least it did for me........................good luck to you!!!!!

You know I never thought it could be scare tissue...I sure hope so.... To be sore after is normal, (whew) I will wait untill my fill check up to tell him... I can't tell you guys how much your responces have helped ease my fears....Thank you ((((((((((HUGS)))))))) Tara
