Its hard to change habits of a lifetime...youve done great though! I would just talk to your doc...maybe you need a little more than just the surgery. Have you thought about going and talking to whoever did your psych eval presurgery...I know I have-I'm strongly considering it. I dont sit down and eat and eat but I dont make good food choices....why is that why after all we've gone thru for this band do we continue to sabbotage ourselves *spelling sorry*....

We're prob looking at around lunchish on monday...Im hoping the weather is going to be ok...

either day is fine with me!!!

Hey guys...under the alabama area here there is another thread about alabama bandster meet...if anyone is interested post up Jason is trying to get a head count..if not enough ppl want to do it we just wont have it. But I wanted to make sure everyone knew just in case!!!!

Did you announce it saturday?

I cant stay off the scales either so I know exactly how you feel. I weigh sometimes 3-4 times a day. I weigh around the same time though so I know if somethings off wack...I think it makes me work a little harder :rolleyes2: I have set a little mini goal Im doing the donut day challenge I atually decreased my goal I only have a few more lbs to go...wish me luck :thumbup:

Im game you know that but it doesnt look like a whole lot of ppl are....

I've changed my goal some..hoping to make it :scared2:

I think the PS will be there sat and I think it starts at 10.....not sure or is it 1030???

I wish I could say Ive lost 90lbs...that is great...but I too am stuck stuck stuck and have been for almost 2 months now....I HATE this...gotta keep pluggin on I guess

I'll help out too. Just let me know.

Yayayayayyaaaay!!!

It is def tough to do what youre supposed to when youre go go going all the time...good luck shanwna. I would die if my doc stuck me 3 times....I would be like here let me get if for you

Before surgery I was the burping qeen...now I RARELY ever burp...for me its major gas at the other end... really depend on Gasx!! LOL

*Ahhhh, breath of fresh air....so far this fill is just right...hope Im not bragging to early. I can eat, but have good restriction.Jason did you get a fill?

mmm...thats sad because all the meetings Ive ever been to anyone can go...its about educating and empowering patients...thats a shame. Oh well.

HAHA, yeah and she left it here!

Hope kimmy had fun!!

I wouldnt mind going to one in albertville!!

I got a fill today... .2cc Keep your fingers crossed. About to go to a beginners step class...this will be interesting...luckily I havent gained anything these past couple of weeks :thumbup: YEAH YEAH I hear ya jason :tt2:

So, I usually take my meds about 30min b4 going to bed...a couple of times this last week I have had some reflux symptoms....no big deal I thought thats the only time it happens I'm gonna try to start taking my meds as soon as I get home in the afternoon ( I forget) but a couple of times this last week I have woken up about 3 or 4 am with pressure in my stomach and it feels like my throat is being pulled down into my stomach. Has anyone else had this prob? I thought it might be reflux associated so I called my doc to see if he would call me in a few nexium to see if maybe my stomach was just irritated bc I havent had a fill since jan I have 7.5 in a 14cc band (I was banded January 2008) He was like you need to come in tomorrow morning for an unfill....I was like no way..anyhow I convinced the nurse to let me try some otc prilosec and if it happens again I will come in for an unfill...my doc said Im probably too tight but why now over 2 months after my last fill???...my thought is this last fill really kicked in I can eat ok and Im losing wt and I wasnt having probs until this last week...why do we have to go straight to an unfill? Im not throwing up why cant we try more conservative measures FIRST and then if it doesnt work have a SMALL unfill I was really upset..I really really dont want to have an unfill but will if I have to...any suggestions.Or is anyone else having probs with reflux?

HA, I havent had an NSV in a long long time...well who am I kidding I have had a SV in an even longer time..anyhow I started this journey wearing a 24 or so...I have been stuck at an 18-20 well today I went shopping with one of my gal pals and put on a 16-TOO BIG!!! YAY!!! I was so excited...unfortunately the next size lower that they had was a 12...I knew that wouldnt fit but I was totally excited that for once I wasnt able to buy an article of clothing bc IT WAS TOO BIG :thumbdown:

Thats cool with me...the more the merrier...where do you go to meetings at if you dont mind me asking..I think there are some ppl on here that might be interested in going to meetings in your area...

No they changed my appt to this monday 5/4 cuz the doc was gonna be OOT, Im sure Im up a couple of lbs...I had him take .25 out last time maybe he could just put .10 in.

You can do it!!!
