    Wow you can get your fills in a week. My doctor do fills ever six weeks. Also tell me a little more about breaking your carb addication. How do u do that? Leave a message on my vistor page.
  4. That's good. I am not working out three times a day. In the morning 5 a.m. on my 9 a.m. break (walking) and when I get home in the evening. Well I get off at 5:30 p.m. central time. So I will holla at you later.

  5. No I feel I should have lost more. I didn't follow the doctor orders down to the T. For example. The don't want us to get bread, pasta & rice. I still do. Also I stop working out for about two months. What about you?

  6. I want to weigh 150. What's your goal weight? I also want a flat stomach. That's my area where I have the most problems.

  7. I think I have 9 cc's it could be possible its 8cc. I have a 14 cc band. How many ccs do you have. You can tell I am bored at work. LOL

    Help--re-post need feedback

    O bye the way....there is also whats call head hungry which I hate soooooooo much. So when you feel hungry you need to ask yourself is it head hungry or real hungry.

    I understand how you feel. I had my fifth fill Monday. My fourth fill I was at my sweet spot for almost three months. I had this fill for three days and I am still hungry. Be patient. Me and some other lapband people have notice it takes some days for the fill to kick in or maybe even a week. Also some days you are going to be tighter than other days. Also in the morning you will be tighter also. As far as you being swollen where they stuck you. Keep an eye on that. If its still swollen by tommorrow call the docter. You don't want to let it get infected. Also make sure you are not a diabete. You said you get light headed. I use to do that when I get really hungry and I gotten check and the doctor said I was boderline diabate. As far as no bread and pasta. Yep they are serious. I hate that part to and I must admit. I still eat it. If you don't eat it your weight lost will be much faster. (But I love it so much) Let me know if I answer all your questions. Leave me a message on my vistors page or either email me.

    Insurance..... huh?

    I hope they cover it. What kind of insurance do you have?
  15. I just viewed your pics. U look great. How was your first fill? How many ccs did they put in and how much did you lose? Looking at those pic in Jamaica makes me want to go.

  16. Hi, I see you are online. I'm here at worked, bored! So I just wanted to give u an update. I have been working out really good this week. I am proud of myself. Looks like I'm back on track. I am going to the store this evening and buy some muscle milk. I will replace that with my dinner. How are things going with you?

  17. Hey how has everything been going? I started back working out a few days ago. I work out in the morning, walk on my first break, and then do another work out in the evening. That's three workouts a day. I guess I will do it 5 days out of a week. I don't feel much restriction with my fill I gotten Monday. Maybe in a few days, or in a week I will feel a different. This was my fifth fill. When I gotten my last fill three months ago, that was my sweet spot and I was at my sweet spot for three months. Have you weighed yourself again? If so how much have you lost?

  18. Wow you been through a lot with your port and you still love it. Now that is dedication. Hopefully that was the last time they have to move it. I will be praying for you.

    As for me losing 50 lbs. I was proud of myself then I wasn't because I was the one to stop excersing and watching what I eat. I finally gotten back on track a few days ago and thank goodness I only gain 4 lbs (not three like I thought, lol) Now I am ready to see the scale moving again. I brought some clothes that's a little bit too little so that can motivate me.

  19. Well I have started back excersing really good. I work out in the morning and evening. Also I walk on my morning 15 minute break. I must say its harder starting all over again. It makes me more disappointed in myself for ever stopping. But I got to suck it up and keep on going. I knew I was going to do this. That's why I gave away all my big clothes when I lost my 50 lbs. My size 10 is getting too tight and I am wearing mostly my size 12. I also brought some more cute size 10 hand me downs. That really made me want to get back on track. Looking at all these cute clothes in the closet and knowing I can almost wear them. :cursing: I haven't weighed myself in a while because I knew I wasn't doing anything to get the weight off. As a matter of fact I gain three pounds. I'm just thankful its not more than that. I don't feel a different with my 5th fill but some times it takes a few days to a week for me to feel a different. I just felt a different with I took my meds. The third pill sort of gotten stuck. So I will have to take them about 15 minutes a part. Well I just wanted to update everyone. Feel free to give me any feedback!!:cursing:
  20. How is it going? How many months are you?

  21. CONGRATS, on hitting onederland. My weight is coming off slow too....but hey at least its coming off! How much weight have you lost in all? Also what is your weight goal. Mine is 150.

    I DIDN'T TELL MY FAMILY. BUT MY COWORKERS KNOWS ABOUT IT BECAUSE 4 OF THEM HAVE THE LAPBAND. SOME PEOPLE WILL LOOK AT YOU AND WONDER WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS AND NOT JUST LOSE WEIGHT WITH OUT IT. THAT'S WHAT SOMEONE TOLD ME THAT FOUND OUT I HAD IT DONE.
  23. U look wonderful....keep up the good work.

  24. I was reading that you had your port moved around a few times. What happen if you don't mind me asking?

  25. sarahp626
