Hi jess! I just saw your pictures and all I can say is WOW! You have done an amazing job. I havent been so lucky. I was just banded July 1, 2009 but already feel like i have failed. The weight doesnt seem to be moving and I'm not sure of what I am doing wrong. I have tried to talk to my nurse (the doctore is very seldom in) but she isnt the friendliest person in the business and isnt very helpful. I am a full time nursing student and havent been able to attend very many support meetings so I was wondering if you could give me some pointers.

Hi Angie, Actually I seen Dr. Siddiqui when I went in for my surgery but Dr. Clarey did my surgery. I have heard he does a great job as well!! Good luck with your band!! -
Well, welcome Natasha Z and hey annie!! We miss you! Natasha, I think Kettering has a support group for the Bypass and the band. There is also a group that meets in Dayton, but I am not for sure the location. You can find the site on Dayton Bariatrics Website. You could also ask your surgeon if your planning on being banded or check local sites who provide support groups by googling bariatric surgeons in Dayton. I usually attend the ladies fitness center in Huber Heights!! I also love to play tennis! I am not any good but I try!! LOL! I also love volley ball and know right where some good volleyball sandlots are, if we could get atleast six people interested!! Okay well I am hanging on for dear life with my weight loss. I scheduled for a fill, but it's not till August which seems like an eternity. I am hoping to get some more weight off by hitting the gym and doing my clinical rounds for three weeks!! Okay take care you all! Be strong and fight the food temptations!! I know I struggle in this too!

Yeah, I enjoy a fuze beverage that is low carb like that and I do count it as my fluids, but I haven't ask my doc. However I don't drink them all the time. I try to enjoy one a day! Sometimes I only have three a week just because I am scared I will crave them all the time. When I did my protein shakes the doc said we could count that as fluid intake but it was still a water base. The fuze drink is a juice base so I am not sure. I would still be scared that an overload of juice wouldn't be a good thing even though it has vitamins which is why I stick to just a few of them! Good luck with your findings!
