You can do this Slinderella!!!! Get you something to keep your hands busy.... busy hands can't be putting things in the mouth I have found from personal experience, not that I have that much or have been banded that long, but I am a pro at being hungry and working hard to find something else to occupy my time. :cool2:

Ok, tell me about the protein bullets, is there a specific brand/ place to buy? :cool2:

SLG- I agree with you..absolutely. It is hard work, but oh so worth it, no matter how slow.... there are up days and down days, but never a day I have regretted it. I wish it would come off quicker, but hey.... its coming off right? And we all need to remember...... as it has been said thousands of times....... its a tool and it will only work if you work it.... like anything where there is a will there is a way, if you cheat it will let you.... to a point. We just all have to stick together and keep encouraging each other and know that each day is better than the one before...... it puts us 1 day closer to goal.

Ha, Patricia, you crack me up! Your never too old to appreciate a fine specimen. :smile:. (I've always heard that just because their is snow on the rooftop doesn't mean there isn't fire in the furnace!) :smile:!!!! :tt1:Actually, I have not paid that much attention as I am still a bit intimidated, ha. So, tell me, how are you doing on your six months, where are you at and how are you feeling with it all?:cool2:

I absolutely have no regrets. I love the band!

Hey Tina, I go on Thursday the 10th at 4:15. I thought they only did fills on Thursdays? That's what they told me last time, but then he was going out of town so actually did my fill on Monday instead.

Hi all. I'm for sure calling tomorrow, first thing. I am ready for the scales to move again. I am working really hard to control my portions even with no restriction and have mastered the drinking before and after rules. IT has been hard and I do confess that I watch the clock the minute my last bite is taken, HA! I usually get on the computer in the evenings to help pass the time til I can drink. That has been huge for me! Tina, I'll sure let ya know if I get my appt changed, and wow, you have done wonderful with your weight loss, I am jealous! :biggrin:. :thumbup:

I hear ya! I think when we hit the right spot it levels..... or so I've heard, HA!

Hey Andy, I have the large, I am guessing that is the 14cc and my first fill he gave me 3cc. I seem to really have no restriction right now and am debating calling and seeing if I can come in this Thursday. My fourth was good. Nothing spectacular just family and friends. But that is more than enough.

Hey gd, how are you? Sounds like your doing great. Your right where I am, I want more more more more more. And can eat more more more, lol.. I'm experiencing major loads of stress and am a stress eater and with little or no restriction i am in constant battle. I can't wait til I can say 50 lbs lost though...... then 75...... then 100...... then...then...then... HA!

Vacation........sighs......... I'm so jealous! Enjoy enough for both of us would ya? Um... don't let the 41 fool ya girlie, I think I am up two...but I am NOT changing my ticker cuz its coming back off. I am struggling. Having a lot of stress and no restriction, not a good combination. I'm supposed to be filled on the 17, I may call and beg for sooner!

Hey Carol, Was wondering where you were....... you and L2L went poof at the same time, ha. Vacation, I'm so jealous! Relax and have a wonderful time for all of us. Worry with the rest when you get back to reality, :thumbup:. Talk to ya soon.

Hi Andy, all, I was banded April 10 by Dr. Stephen Britt in Guntersville also. Small world. I am due for my next fill on July 17. Can't wait for that! How was everyone's 4th?

Hey all, after all this time I just now found the Alabama threads. I'm from Huntsville. Just thought I'd say Hi.
