Hay guys, I have been banded for a while. prior to banding I did martial arts and after banding continued. I am still in it, sill no direct hit on the port. I am still waiting for the accident to happen. I have had people walk all over my stomach and take direct hits to the stomach on a regular basis. not direct hit yet on the port. if anyone has had the direct hit yet, I would love to here about it.

I its me again. banded by ortiz also. good to here from you. what is your weight now?

I know the feeling. My pain meds that the doc gave me helped me sleep.

no way they look great!!!

Keep us informed

I am so sorry

Hi. I have lost 34lbs since november. Not doing so well. I have to get into a steady exercise program.

thanks rene I love tuna and will try that.

DIet diet diet, that is it. for the rest of life. Exercise, Exercise. if I dont exercise i dont have to change a thing and maintain weight. I exercise 4 or 5 times a week; I loose weight. Run if your body will allow, walk, if you can't run. if you are in a wheel chair 24hr fitness has arm peddels like a bike but you use your arms that will help also. Here is reality. I cant stop eating, I love food, I love sweets. I dont have the self control to not eat sweets. The band helps me eat less. but, Cookies, cakes, ect go down soooo easy. Chx, tuna, gets stuck. sooo, If you eat the stuff that makes you feel full like chicken breast, fish etcc. you might find that you will eat much less of the sweets. dont mind me i have a band and still need to choose what I eat. Not watch what i eat. matt

Hi mercadies, I had another fill today, I was had a 1cc fill and then today they found .8 inside of my band. So, I was filled to 1.6cc. I hope this is it. I was able to eat some dark meat chicken tonight but not much. I have to really buckle down to drop some weight. I wanted to hit 230 by March 10 that is a whapping 25lb's. I gained 15lb from my first fill. So, Im changing my workouts to 4or 5 am. and work real hard on my eatiing habits and see if it changes anything.

Im in San Diego There is a San Diego bandsters that meet once avery month at mimis cafe in Mission VAlley. Yahoo bandsters is what they call themselves.

Keep us informed. the transformation is comming along great

Wow!!! It could be wose throwing them out tomarrow. If I was thrown out tomarrow I would have no place to go. Except a nice hotel on credit cards. but, how long can that last. You need to be tough, but, be family and family sticks together. They beat the hell out of each other when someone screws up. But, They still stick together. Italian family
