HI JULIE, I'm doing good thanks... its great to hear that you were approved WAHOOO.....which Dr. were you going with again??? Jan??? i have Dr Hong,Oh my gosh the next day after my fill i hurt sooooo bad actually after the numb stuff wore off i could tell that they had made ground round in there hehe since i got the fill i actually some days are not hungry then there are days that i can still eat things like always i'm one of the lucky ones soo far i've not gotten anything stuck or haven't had any problem. I go back to the Dr on the 9th and i will see if i've lost any weight by then i'm actually trying to stick to only weighing in when i see the Dr cuz i could be one of those ones that if i don't loose a lb everytime i get on that scales id get all blue soo im trying this for now i pray to god that i've lost but its had in my sitiuation cuz i retain fluid so easy...My leg looks some better thanks for asking. hope to hear from you again soon take care and congrads on the approval!!!!!!!!!! are you gonna be at the next meeting on the 9th??? i will be there i'm trying to make my appointments for the day they have the support group cuz we don't have a lap banders group here in Pendleton.
