  1. Happy 67th Birthday paylady!

  2. Hello paylady. West Monroe here. Do you know of any support groups for our area?

  3. I've seen Jody twice before. He really helped me set up a good program. I love the elliptical and spend most of my time on it. I work out 1 hour 3 times a week. I do 30 minutes on the elliptical and then 30 minutes of strength training.

     

    I had most of my weight loss in the first month. I had my first fill (3cc)at 4 weeks and felt NO restriction at all afterwards. My second fill was 2 weeks later (5cc) and was much better. My weight loss started again after my 2nd fill. I went 3 weeks later for my third fill. I was still losing weight, but felt like I was eating too many snacks to stay full. Rena put just 1cc in this time for a total of 6, and I think I'm at my sweet spot for now. I can eat my 3 meals and not need a snack in between to stay full.

     

    I weighed myself this morning (I only weigh twice a week) and was at 279. That's 36 pounds gone in 9 weeks!!!!

  4. Well, I haven't figured this msg system out yet-lost the first one!!! I was the first one at 1:00 and was back at work by 2:30. I had to go up & see Jody-did you? I was nervous but it sure wasn't bad. I was banded on 5/6 and have lost 10#. I will be glad when I start to feel restriction. I got 2 cc today. How much do you have? Do you have restriction now? How many weeks in between your 3 fills?

    How soon after your 3/3 surgery did you get your 1st fill? Are you able to keep down liquids now, after your 3rd fill or did you have to be un-filled some? I am scheduled with Dr. Sartor the first week of May.

    I was scheduled with Walter Sartor on 3/11 but had to have a cardiac clearance. I don't have a new date as yet. I know a couple of ladies who have used him with much happiness! You do not need to have a referral to get an appt with him.

    Hi 1st post after lurking for several weeks. Do you know the self pay amount with Dr. M? And where around NE LA will you get your aftercare/fills? Hope to go to the seminar for Dr. Sartor next week. I am still in the research phase. Oh, Monroe, LA here!
