mljalways replied to cindy2275's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Hello and welcome I was banded 11/10/2008 I am at 6.5cc in a 10cc band and I have it a plateau. I guess it happens. Looks like you are doing great! -
Congrats!!!!! I am 15 lbs away and I think I will have a party when it happens:)

Thanks for the comment, I had heard that before but thought it was just an excuse. I would sure like to see the scale move more though:bored: -

I know that feeling. I was down because the scale has not been moving but today I tried on a pair of pants the next size down and they fit!! -

Glad to hear everyone is well!! I am doing ok but a little frustrated. I know we shouldnt compare ourselves but I was banded 11/10 I have had 3 fills, I am up to 6.5 in a 10cc band. I have restriction and I am really not eating too much and I have been working out daily but the scale is not moving. I am down to sizes when it comes to my clothing but yet the scale doesnt move. Any thoughts?? -
I am glad to hear things went well for you!

question about fill needle
mljalways replied to emmers1126's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Well they didnt give it to me to "tote" it around. My surgeon gave it to me when I was discharged and told me to bring it to my fierst fill appt. It was in a sealed package that came straight from Allergan. -
question about fill needle
mljalways replied to emmers1126's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Emily, I am not going to lie to you but at the hospital they gave me a needle to bring to my first fill appt and it was so long it would scare anyone!!! I dreaded my fill appt although I knew how badly I needed one and when I got there the needle they used was only half the size of the one they gave me at the hospital. I had my 3rd fill yesterday and it is literally a piece of cake. PLEASE do not fear the fill! Good luck to you -
Jillians shred DVD is awesome!! My legs hurt so bad the day after I first tried it I knew it would work:)
