  2. SWEETMAMA_OF4

    I am so disappointed?And embarrassed! Please HELP

    Ugh.. I know how you feel, things are very hard to learn with the band. I do not think it is easy to get sick I think it is actually kinda hard to get up. My weight loss is not going so well either. My ??? is how do you stay away from all of the bad foods. I mean it is a addiction how do you turn from it.. It will get better for you I am sure you just have some restriction with your band. I am not sure how you would go about getting it taken out. If they took all of the fluid out then you will not have any restriction.. Things would feel like normal. Hope I helped a little take care

I sure hope so. I need to get some weight off and feel like excercising.. take care and thanks alot Tessa

  10. You have done such a great progress... I hope to do it one day.. can i ask a coule of questions.. At first was it hard. I am starting at 290 and hopeing to get to 185. I am 3 months out and lost 40lbs and it is getting very hard. I am eating things i should not be.. Don't feel like excercising.. I need some help here.lol I am getting kinda depressed I just want to make my goal. Very hard when i have 4 kids and a hubby to cook for and watch them eat. I know it is the mental thing but it is very hard. Again you look great!

  11. Hi I first would like to say that that is amazing for the lost weight you have done. I am 3 months out and I am at 40 lbs but it is getting hard on me.. I have no restriction and can eat anything.. the mental thing is bad right now. I just want what everyone else has. So sometimes i do, did you have a hard time at first until you had some sort of restriction. Great job again.. if you can help me out a little I am kinda getting depressed with this wondering if i have the will power.

    Hurley Hospital

    I am a Hurley patient. I also had dr. Farhan he was amazing!! I love all of them at the baractric unit them self. I have never ran across someone that was even a little mean. They all are great. I had sugery 8-18-08 i am down 40lbs and hoping to keep going. I wish you the best of luck and hope you all have a great success.
  13. Hi can i ask did you have the band done yet or are you seeking the band.

  14. Wow I wanted to say I was looking at your photos and you look amazing.. I have to ask how are you doing it.. It is so hard to stay away from all the bad food and to get yourself to excercise. Tell me what you do please. At first was it hard for you. I am 3 months after sugery I have like 35lbs down. I am not getting the energy and stuff to keep it going off. But I don't have any restriction either. Well keep up the good work you look amazing Great job!!

I have also found out that i can eat anything i want just not as much as i used to before sugery. So of course i know i can eat it so i do.. I have lost almost 40lbs and i want to keep going. Has this hapened to anyone else. I just have no restriction and don't know what to do. Please help me out and give me some advice.. It seems so simple for everyone, but i know it has it challenges. So thanks everyone..

  17. Hi I was looking at your photos you look great!! You have done such a great job. May I ask How and what scedule you are following. I am having some issues and I was banded on Sept 18th 2008 I have like 40lbs down and my eating is icking up again. I have learned i can eat anything again and now it is hard to stop again.. If you have any advice please help me out.. You done great keep up the good work..

  18. That's is great! You absolutely did the right things you look great..I hope to be able to do things more with my kids. I am having a hard time right now with this because i found out at this point i can eat everything i want so that is what i am doing.. I know it is not right but it is very hard to turn away.. So i am having a hard time with that and i am making myself turn away from it now.. Also can i ask at first was it hard for you.. I mean you and I were the same size!! I lost 32 lbs by my six weeks and that is pretty good i thought. at this point was you walking everyday.. I mean was it still pretty hard on you.. i have only had one fill.. which was a 1/2ccs I go back on the 31st and i hope that i will have more restriction to where i can not eat bread or stuff i like that is not good for me.. I have 4 children and a hubby that can eat anything.. I find myself picking alot.. I hope to be able to get this undercontrol very soon.. take care and please keep in touch Tessa
