Michelle~ Have you tried adding some calories? I know that with me, if I seem stuck, I mix it up a little (300 calories of so) for 2-3 days, and then go back to "normal" and it keeps my body guessing. So far that has kept the scale moving. Although, not this week. I am anxiously awaiting my fill next week. Just a thought! Brandy

Ok...so I was at the gym this morning, started doing sit ups on a ball, and I could really feel my port wiggling around. I am 5 weeks out. Is this ok, or should I hold off a bit? Brandy

Woofay & Dynamo~ What are you filled out right now? Do you think that you have/had hit your sweet spot? Thanks! Brandy

Welcome Fatwidow~ Sorry about your husband and mom, that would really be tough. I am glad to hear that your taking this step to get healthy. I will agree with everyone, that your in excellent hands. Mal~ I am trying, I will be hitting the gym, hopefully 6 days this week. The only thing that is truly grossing me out, is when I do sit ups, my port is wiggling all over! UGH! Has this happened to you? Tied~ My appt. is at 10:30, so I will make sure that he is in a great mood for YOUR BIG DAY!!! YAY!!! Marcy~ God bless you girl!! I don't think that I could handle AK. I am chilly enough here in Colorado. Keep up with all the activities, I wish that I had some more to do here. Book~ AWESOME about your clothes. I am getting there, but just trying to hang on until Spring. Then I can get rid of all the winter clothes for good. Keep up the great work. Mona~ How are you handling everything. You have a huge load with school and work. Are you a stress eater like me? Maybe this is why were in bandster hell... Happy Saturday Everyone!! Brandy

I have bought seasoned fish fillets at Super Target. They are super easy and really yummy!

Yum, I think that I will have to go get me some fish! Thanks for the ideas!

I don't have much advice, as I am in bandster he!! myself right now. I just hope that everything will kick in soon and that you will be on your way! Brandy

Glad to hear that LA is doing great!! She is on her way!!! Thanks also MAL, do you think that this crummy weather is making us eat??? I just feel like hibernating and watching movies and of course eating!!!

Tied~ Small world. Where are you at now? Did you grow up in Brighton? It is really growing!! They said on the news that it is the second fastest growing community right now. If you have not been here in awhile you probably would't recognize it. It is always nice to have a recommendation to a school, I always hear all the horror stories and tend to focus on them. Espically in the middle schools.

I can't get in until the 29th , better than the 7th, but still a ways away. So let me ask you all this...how do you deal with head hunger in the mean time. This week has been super hard!!!!

Really? What school? My 2 older boys go to Zion Lutheran... Brandy

TIED~ OOOOHHHHH I bet your getting so excited! 11 days! YAY!!! Can't wait to meet you! Brandy

SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!!! I had a fill 2 weeks ago and I have very little restriction and I am eating and eating and eating. I am trying to stay busy...but it is not helping!! ACK!! I really hate myself when I do this. I am local, is it worth a call to Dr. K, to see if could put more in? I even gained, which means that I have lost 0 since 2 weeks ago. Is this still considered bandster hell?!?! HEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPP MMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

I understand completely. I am anxiously awaiting my next fill. I am totally flucuating between 1-3 pounds lost since my last fill. It is very difficult. Bandster hell, I guess. Brandy

AWESOME job Living the dream!!! I am lucky because I am local, so if there was a problem, I can just go in. I wonder how much will go in next time...but I need to go in. I ate 2 hours ago and now I am STARVING again. ***SIGH*** :tt1: Brandy

AWESOME!!! I have it on my calendar! Count me in... Brandy

Congratulations!!! Here is to tons and tons of happiness!!!

Good luck to you!! I hope that the book gets you where you want to be. Brandy

I always chew gum...I don't think that I have swallowed a piece since I was a kid. I do chew right after a meal as well. Ask your doc, but you should be fine! Brandy

I am with everyone else, don't give up!!! 50 pounds is nothing to sneeze at. If it makes you feel better, my dd was born with a cleft and some other issues. We drove to the hospital that was 3 hours away, 3-4 days per week during her first year. It is do-able. You just have to want it bad enough! Brandy

WOW!!! You look really amazing! Thanks for sharing! Brandy

My sister is looking into the band as well, any information on this would be great. Phone number, email, anything! Thanks:smile:

I forgot, I am down 30 as of this morning. Finally in ONEderland!!! I will NEVER go back either...

Was this your 2nd fill? I am at 3.5cc with the 10cc band, and although I am staying full longer, I am hungry and am using alot of will power right now. I have my 2nd fill on the 7th. I was just like you, not really sure what I felt. Still don't really know, I guess it will get better with time. Brandy

Brandy! Down 30lbs! Great!!! Do you ever have a Thursday evening free to venture down to see us at Red Robin? We'd love to meet you! I can't wait to go to Red Robin!!! I am hoping in Feb. I can go and meet everyone. Last time was my DH birthday, so with 4 kids, we had to of course have a birthday party. :smile: Let me know the Feb. date and I will make it work! Brandy
