    I also have to drive an hour each way after my surgery every 6 weeks but, I don't have the scheduling problems you have. Is there maybe a doctor closer to you that can do your fills????

    It took me a bit longer to totally get motivated...but, I finished Day two of week one....this time without stopping, I had to take a little break the first go (how sad is that!). On Monday I'm going to start over week one so I can be on the Mon-Wed-Fri schedule. I hope you all are having a great weekend!(:

    Hello is this thing on???

    You know why your my inspiration....It's because the whole band thing hasn't work like it's supposed to for you YET (But it will!!)...which from what I understand is normal it can take up to 6 months to hit your sweet spot. You haven't let it get to you, you've been working out hard, and you've lost 29 lbs....that's awesome!! It's a reminder to me that the band is just a tool, you have to do all the right things to make it work whether your having retriction or not! Your doing awesome and I want to be able to do it too!:thumbup:
  11. Sooooo r u feeling restriction now????

    Hello is this thing on???

    Thanks Wendy. You were actually my inspiration to start my own! I'm hoping that one day when I'm at goal, I'll be a reminder of everything I had to go threw to get there! And if there's anyone I can help during this process then that's just icing on the cake (or should I say shake!LOL)

    Hello is this thing on???

    I've never been a Blogger but, I thought it might be fun to track my WL Journey. I'm 35 years old and I'm married with 3 kids (15, 8 & 3) & 2 dogs. I never had a weight problem that is not until I had my 2nd child (I was 27), I started putting on weight right before I got pregnant with him and by the time I had him I had gone from (in about 1 1/2 years time) 125 - 203. The lowest I got after that was 166 and I would go back and forth between 166 - 180 for 4 years. When we bought our first house we had a 3 month escrow and boy did I start turning to food when I was stressed out! By the time we closed escrow I had gain 25 lbs and I didn't even know it! I knew I had gained some because my clothes were fitting tighter but, not 25 lbs!!!! The weight started going to places it hadn't before...like my face, arms, stomach, my girls up top! When we finely moved in I had gained all my weight back from my 2nd pregnancy! I couldn't believe it!! So I started working out and eating good (most of the time), I was doing Body for Life, well about a month 1/2 into it....Guess what happened??? I got PREGNANT!!! I was happy about the baby but, not about the weight I was starting out at. Now I was starting out at 203:eek:!!!! Well by the time I had my Rye Rye (on my 32nd birthday!) I was weighing about 244...The lowest I've been since then is 218, I was doing so good after I had him...honestly I don't know what the heck happened! All I know is now I'm even heavier then I was when I had him!! I really wanted to lose the weight on my own without any type of surgery but, I have failed over and over again and I'm done! I feel like I'm letting my youth slip away and missing out on dressing the way I want too. I've always had a good self esteem..Thank God....but, lately I've been having to force myself to do things with friends because I get so depressed about my weight. I'm so OVER being a cow!!! I'm ready to start a new chapter in my life. Tomorrow I'm going to have my blood work done, I have my pre-op appointment on July 22nd and my surgery date is August 6th....4 days before mine and my son's birthday. I'm hoping tomorrow goes well...I really hate needles and usely they have a hard time finding a vain...I really hope they'll be nice and not hurt me!!!:thumbup:

    Ok I just finished my first one and I wanted to die! I'm so out of shape!! I'm having to take a slower pace then the rest of you. At this point I'm just happy to get up and do it instead always talking about doing it!(: My daughter who's 15 went kayaking in La Jolla last month with her school, she had a blast.

    August 6th, 2008 Surgery Date????

    Hi Fleminld, I was wondering how you were doing with your new goals. Did you start walking your dogs this week? I know the feeling of joint pain I have it my right knee really bad! But, I can't let it get the best of me I really have to fight threw it (without hurting myself)...I have to get myself back in shape!!! I will feel so much better when I do, and it will for sure help with the whole weight loss journey. I'm starting couch to 5K, I'm not going to be able to finish the whole thing before my surgery but, I think it's going to help me with losing the 10 lbs I need to lose before Aug. 6th! Man giving up coffee when having to work the graveyard shift sounds like alot to ask!LOL

    I just got done reading everyone's post and I fill so inspired! I have to lose 10 lbs before my surgery Aug. 6th and I'm having a terrible time doing it....I have actuly gained 3 lbs not the direction I want to be going in! I used to be the workout queen! When I quick is when I started packing on the lbs along with having 3 kids!(: It was my last one that did me in! I will only be able to do it up till my surgery but, I think it's going to help get ready for it. I hope that's ok ~Helen:biggrin:

My doctor wants me to lose 10 lbs before surgery and he sugguested I do the slim fast diet....I'm having such a hard time (truth be told that I haven't been able to do for even one day), is any one else having issue's?
  22. How was your fill today? Are you feeling any restriction?

  23. Hi Beth,

    When I decided that I wanted to get banded, I made an appointment with my doctor, because I wanted to be refered by someone she trusted, as well as myself. That was the beginning of last month and I'm getting my band Aug 6th. Good Luck!
