Thats cool I hope you hit your goal soon so that you can go. good luck Toni I don't know if you have never worked out before, but if you haven't please take it easy cause u can hurt yourself easily lifting more thanwhat you are ready for. but good luck with the taining.

I know this is off topic but chris what are you going to Iraq for? just wondering my brother has been there twice. And hopefully the last time he will be there. He is normally my work out partner but been hving to do it solo. BTW in case you maybe wondering he is in the army and is an EOD.

I know what you mean about working the legs, BUT, My legs already are so big for my hieght. I am 6'7" and only wear a 32 length pant. even when I did lose alot my last time I had huge legs. so I try and not get them any bigger, cause they actually don't match the rest of my body. but thanks for the advise.

Hey ChrisNJ I was wondering your goal is 250. how tall are you to only want to go to 250?

Has anyone else been told by their doc they did not need a fill at all. I went for my first fill and he said there was no need in a fill bcause i am losing quick enough already. justwondering if anyone esle has had this happen tothem.

I have not had a problem with losing yet. I am only 7 weeks post op and have done well for myself. but i have slowed down to about 1-3 lbs per week. I have also just recently started to workout again. So hopeflly that willget meback to losing faster.

Like most people on here i have gained and lost 1000+ lbs. last time i got down to 250 and that was a very low weight for me. Ihave aot of muscle and is hard to get to low. but good luck to you too

Had my fill appointment yesterday and the doc said i was losing fast enough that i did not need a fill. anyone else in here have this happen to them? it is kinda cool but a little worried as to that i won't be able to lose as fast as i want to. but it is probally good for me.well yall have a safe and happy 4th and have good eats.

it is the port cause i can feel mine as well

Let me tell ya if the people don't like it, tuff luck!! this is something you did because of your health. most people may ask me now but usally if i tell them they say "cool " and just start asking questions about it. but good luck with it and congrats on your loss

DBA what r ur stats just wondering cause i get my first fill jul 2nd. we seem to have some of the same progress

I was told by my doc and from what I have read. Rice is not a great food to chose. Rice can be ok if it is cooked very well and fully puffed before eating. bread is better if eaten toasted, also try wheat not white, to gummy. as for chicken i have not eaten much but did not have a problem with chick-fila nuggets. it is a little fattier though

Hi all. this is my first time posting here. I have not had anyfeels yet and am looking forward to one jake i hear ya. I have no restriction as well but am getting my first fill mon. and can't wait. I think all the weight that i have lost so far is from dieting alone. I just wanted to ask all of you guys who have been banded for a time to post some photoscause it is hard to find very many B&A's of guys. It keeps me modivated to see it works if u work it.
