i lost 15lbs since feb 08 ...i listen too fergie,gwen stephani,and nelly futado,beastie boys and missy elliot and britney to keep me moving at the gym im up to 5x a week.30 min of weight 3x a week and 5x week 30 min cardio elliptical/treadmill i like ellipticall better it burns more calories when i use the treadmill iturn the incline up to 10 and sweat my ass off...so the scale is hold steady but my ass is really firming up and i need new jeans pronto....:thumbup:

so it hurts alot but there is a reduction of hair..its not gone and make sure u buy a package that will allow touch ups ...because everytime u have any little hormone fluctuation it will pop up agin:blink:

i have a really cool scale that save your weight and lets u put in a goal weight..its really cool i weigh myself several time a day and i try not to go to bed weighing more than what i started out the day weighing...hows that for compulsive ...im looking into getting a shrink...o but before the scale thing i wasnt really losing:thumbup:

i will miss my little bit of butt ..but im hittin the gym hard and doing the butt moves to keep it firm

everything i eat hurts me i just dont like the way food feels in my stomach anymore..and i throw it up i cant deal with that pain feeling in my belly and it radiates to my back..i thought i would just feel full alll the time but im starving and i have had several fills and been too tight and had a few unfills.. i have a 10 cc band with 5cc in it now ...6cc was to much i could actually feel the band squeezing my stomach and it hurt ..icouldnt even drink water ..so i think my restriction is ok .not everything i eat cookies always go down fine:sad:

i have only lost 15lbs and i was banded in feb 08 and every lb was a struggle but i kno i have to work out or i dont lose..so i drag my lazy ass to the gym 5 days a week and the weight is coming off.my main problem is that i binge at night.im still hungry too but the working out is really helping im losing inches

it was a UTI ask your doc for some antibiotics..i thought the same thing

It took me 4 fills to get tight..

but i live in port st lucie and my fill doc might do it call him dr vaughn in jupiter fl...hes really cool

its been hard and i dont feel full it hurts when u eat the wrong things and i just thought i would feel full but im still hungry all the time maybe it head hunger ..ive only lost 10lbs since feb..its sucks and im working out and trying to eat right im not giving up i was self pay and it was 10,000 anyways i just thought i would say its been a hard 10lbs...

i live in port st lucie i like dr vaughn in jupiter ive used dr larson for fills but he is really expensive and the waiting room is always packed ..it takes forever to get in and out of there:biggrin:

I Just Wanted To Post That He A Super Sweet Guy And Very Affordable ....no Waiting Forever In The Waiting Room Either There Not Many Doc Down Here That Will Do Fills...much Cheaper Than Dr Larson At Jfk

rachel ray shes porking it up '

its much harder when you have less to lose and a slow metabolism.. from yo yo dieting. i was banded on feb 28 08.i lost 10lbs and it was hard but im going to keep losing and working out

its not the easy way at all ...i have insulin resistance and every lbs is a struggle ive lost 10 lbs and its been 2 months but i am not starving myself either..

i just made a pumkin pie its mushy....im ok with it .. just waiting for a fill..then i will get ome restriction

I have the same pain on my left side and it swollen to a hard golf ball size..I don't kno what to do

im so swollen i can barely drink.i have lots of pressure and shoulder pain.pls some tel me when iwill feel better

anyone want to share a taxi or meet up at the airport im flying in on the 27th my surgery is on the 28th..id like to meet some other people that are going to do this the same time..or if your just flying in for fills the company would be nice

Im To Be Banded On Thurs By Dr Kirshenbaum Im On The Preopp Diet Now ..gosh I Hope This Works For Me It Seems Nothing Else Has ...

HI IM FEELING THE SAME WAY PLUS GUILT BECAUSE WE ARE BUYING A HOUSE AND ITS DRAINING ALL OUR MONEY AND THEN MY HUBBY IS LIKE WHY DONT YOU JUST CANCEL YOUR SURGERY WE COULD REALLY USE THAT 10K...BUT I WANT TO BE SMALLER I WANT TO BUY CLOTHES FROM THE REGULAR SIZES...I DONT WANT TO SHOP IN THE BIG GIRL SECTION I CANT DEAL ..I LOVE FASHION AND I MISS IT ...OK SO IM OFF THE SUBJECT ..BUT I FEEL THE SAME I LOVE SUSHI AND DONUTS AND CAKE ,,,I HOPE I CAN STILL HAVE THESE THINGS LATER.. IM ON MY PREOP DIET NOW IT SUCKS..ALOT

i would not risk it because if u get infection and mess up your band you are out so much money

funny thx for the smile ..il be ok but this diet is brutal and he says he can tell if i cheat so i dont want any reasons to cancel my surgery
