JAYGERL05

I can hardly get anything down during that time of the month. Water or solids. Once my cycle has ended I am back to normal.

I had gallstones and they did not give me meds, they just told me to stop eating after 6 and no spicy foods until my surgery date. I had my gallbladder removed in 2002 before i was banded in 2005.

May God bless you and your family. I hope everything be ok. I appreciate you sharing this info with everyone....

I used Dr Hamn at Plano of Presbyterian. 972-981-8440, He and his staff has been great.

Welcome Booty!!!

i have to wai at least 4 weeks

I have not been able to eat breaksfast in months. Its normal. I usually drink hot tea, coffe or cocoa. Around 12 I can eat. It took a while for me to adjust but after feeling like i was having a heart attach one morning i just gave up trying to eat in the am.

7. You cant see your goodies without a mirror.

I flucuate from 175-180 and I wear 12 bottoms and 14 tops. I started at 243 wearing 18-20 bottoms and 20-22 tops. I also started as 46dd now I am 40d. My top has always been bigger than my bottom.

Where is all my September band people. Its been 12 whole months.... How is everyone doing? How many pounds have everyone lost??

Shawn we were banded on the same day, My anniversary is Friday and I really wanted to me my Dr Goal for me of being 165 but I guess 177 is ok. I am in a size 12 everyday I am soooooooooo happy and proud of myself. I thought I would never say (I get so tired of all the compliments and saying thank you). On my anniversary this Friday I am not going to work, I am getting a manicure, pedicure, body wrap and massage. I am going to take myself to lunch probably Black eye pea cause I have not been there in a while.

I have lost 66 pounds and I have went from 18-20 to 12-14. I hope that everyone are doing fine with out any complications.

I notice everytime I eat rice I gain a pound or 1.5 pounds the next day. The same goes with chips. Do anyone else have this problem?

I can not drink fast in the am, I can only sip and it has to be hott. If the liquid is cold and i sip or drink normal I will throw up. Around noon I can drink anything normally. I never drink fast, the one time that I did because I had been working out in over 100 degree weather, I threw up.

I am at 3.35cc and I might go back for .5cc.

I am in a fitness challenge at work, there are 60 of us in it. I work out after work usually 4-5 days a week 60 min or more. On saturday I walk 2-3 miles. Take your child with you for some excercise.

Everyone knows and everyone wants to ask questions and i am very happy and excited to share my experience.....I wish I never told anyone because so many people give you the negative and ask why and look at you awkward and always ask (could you have done it by your self) (i always respond nooooooooooo, if i could i would have.

My dr said, his goal was to get me at 165 but my own goal is 145-150. I am fluctuating 175-180. I am very close to both goals.

i would tell them, my daughter was 12 when i had mine and the first time i had to pb, she caught me and the bathroom and she was soooo scared that i was going to die. I then had to sit her down and explain to her about me and digesting food and throwing up and etc.... She helps me alot.

i drink 30 min or more after. One time i ate something really hot and sipped on some juice and i almost threw up. so i will not be eating and drinking.

i have a 4cc band I have had 6 fills and I am currently at 3.35cc, I dont think my body can take another fill. I only eat lunch and dinner no breakfast too much restriction. Lunch, I can eat 4-6 oz, diner 4-6oz. Its up to me to eat right and excercise to get this weight off, No MOre fills.

I am very close to goal. My anniversary is in 9/06. I have currently lost 66 pounds and my dr goals is 165 for me which I am 12 pounds shy of. My own personal goal is 145 which i am 32 pounds shy of. I have good days and bad days.

I was banded 9/8/05 and have lost 66 pounds, I am currently in a fitness challenge and I am hoping to lose another 10 or so by my anniversary date. Good luck to all with your weight success. I started in 18/20 and now I am 12/14 hoping stay in and maintain a perfect 10

I have very bad morning restriction and I can only sip on tea or coffee. I never eat too much or late at night. After my 3 fill it gave me that type of restriction everyday. I eat lunch at 12 or later and it usually consist of weight watcher and i can not even eat over 8oz. sometimes 4-6. I eat a healthy snack or a small salad later in the day. Usually at night I am still full from my snack. I can get Warm tea and coffee down, no more than 4 oz but i can not drink cold liquids at all in the morning because it will come up. Good luck, I had to get used to not being able to eat in the am.

I am in. I am very very close to goal and i hope and pray i make it by my anniversary on 9/8/06. I will post at least 1 month or 1 every other month to keep up with my new found internet family.
