thanks for the compliment hun! Well, I'm sorry for responding so late. School and work have gotten the best of me I tell ya! However, I'm so glad that you've made a wonderful decison. However, consistence in eating habits and excercise is a MUST to steadily loose the weight. Also, due to the fact that I haven't had time to do either appropriately, I'm juggling between gaining five of the pounds I lost versus loosing the 5 lbs I lost during the first month. My first month, I lost 10 lbs and 6 the next..however, I really wasn't adding excercise due to surgecial procedures. I'm not sure of my weight as of now. I will check once i go back to the doctor. But, you continue to do what is right as far as your health goes, and it will pay off. I know you are use to hearing this...but persitence, consistence, and patience go hand in hand throughout your transformation. God bless! TTYL (talk to you later)

Hey Guys! Hey Cali W...whoo-hooo for nursing. I am a 20 year old Christian college student. I attend the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign full-time. I'm very happy about it. School is awesome when you aren't particularly allowing yourself to be stressed out and things of that nature. I am a current major in Gender and Women's studies. Hopefully, I can get a job after college (Undergrad that is) and be like a mentor at a youth or group home or something along those lines. If I go on to do this or not, I'm going to enroll in a nursing school. Hopefully UIC in chicago or Loyola in Chicago as well. Wish me well ladies! This weight battle has been very difficult though considering the fact that its expensive in time and money to actually control and measure calories. Tell me ladies and Gents...How do you all manage? Oh and hats of to the facilitator of this thread!

hey trish thanks for checking up on me ..how much weight have you lost..and honestly did you eat some things during the pt. before you were banded that you don't personally feel affected by...but, that wasn't exactly pertaining to your diet? I want to know b/c I am a victim of that too..I'm guilty as charged...lol..but, things have been going well other than that..i get my walking in...and I'm back working...and going to school full-time as well...I'm ready to drop this weight and become a thinner more adventurous me.!

Hey hunny...sorry for responding so late..but, I feel good...since my surgery on Aug.6th 2006 I've lost around 8 lbs..probably more..but, I haven't checked I'm thinking about hitting a scale today at the gym...just to see what's up...or going to talk to my personal trainer...or get one...but, i think things are going pretty well..being that I'm not banded I do sneak things in..and I wanted to let you know that although we get discouraged b/c things don't work out the way we want them too...this only means to work harder at what we want...this statment is very true...we didn't gain this weight overnights owe have to work hard to get it off...i love u with the love of christ..and be encouraged..hit my page up whenever you need any words of encouragement.

Hi hun..I see that you are 26 and you look wayy younger than that..but, how much weight have you loss? Tell me your updates..you know as African-Americans and big girls so to speak..we have to stick together...so, that's why I chose to write on your page and add you...I'm not a racist or anything..but, I am a feminist~

How will you know if your band has slipped???
pmcclen2 replied to a topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Hi, I don't know if I have a band slippage or not..this is my full liquid period..I have two more days before full liquids..I've missed two appointments...but, I will see my doctor tomorrow morning. I was wondering if it was at all possible for me to know how if I am (LORD FORBID) experiencing a lapband slippage...I have a pinching pain or it feels like a a shorter version of a charlie horse...(cramping pains in an arm or specifically a leg FOR ME) ...its directly under the scar where my port is located..it feels like I'm using those muscles too much thats all..but, if any of you have had this feeling let me know..b/c I'm trying to figure it out...if its nothing...plz reassure me..I know that sometimes..ppl don't have symptoms..but, I don't vomit..although I haven't had a fill anyway...yet..tell me something plz:unsure::mad2::smile::huh2::huh2::huh2: -
