  1. Thanks for the encouragement!! Your right I know we did make the right choice and I just need to focus on my journey not anyone else's!! And your right about the skin mine does look better than her's!! LOL :eek:
  2. I'm doing the exact same thing!! It is soooo frustrating!! I finally had to make myself quit weighing cause I was getting soo discouraged!!:scared2:I'm really trying to learn patience and concentrate on making good choice's & exercising and quit worry about the scale sooo much!! It's really hard too cause one of my good friends did gastric bypass around the same time as my lapband surgery and she has lost almost 90 lbs and rubbing it in every chance she gets!! Very hard!!

  6. Thanks Jane!! back at ya girlie-girl!! Were getting there huh??
  7. Thanks for the compliment!! It has been an exciting process...I'm kinda at a standstill right now but I think I need to really start exercsing to get the rest of this weight off!! But dont be nervous this is the beginning of the rest of your new,healthy,sexy life!!

  8. My restriction is good at times if I dont chew well things get stuck & do come back up.But then other times I can eat more than I should and find myself wanting to snack too.I've had a hard time giving up my starbuck's and I know that's just wasted empty calories!! I'm at 5.5 cc's & I see the surgeon in about 2 weeks I'm thinking of asking for a small fill?? What do you think??Also I have yet to really start exercising too..:( just being honest!! lol :)

    How quick

    I think I lost close to 40lbs within the pre-op to the first two months...but then it slowed way down and the last couple of months it's only been like 4lbs a month or so....I also have not gotten serious about exercising either so I think the time has come for that....

    Not filling beyond 6 cc's??

    Luluc,I like that!! We did pay for it huh?? and if we want it all we should be able to have it if necessary?? There is always going to be "text-book" and then their is the real world where the rest of us live!! lol :thumbup:
  17. This is so funny.....I just told my husband yesterday that my "love affair" with bread was finally over!! I'm 7 months out from surgery and since my last fill bread & I are not a good combo...I would still try to eat it and get stuck almost every time!! I got stuck so bad on a burrito(i know..bad,bad choice)and not only slimed but threw up chunks(sorry gross)that I was like that is it I'm done,but carb & bread addiction is a hard habit to break!!At least were not alone!!:thumbup:

    Why are YOU Fat?

    I think I was fat because food was my everything! I ate when I was happy,I ate when I was sad,I ate when I was bored!! I just ate,ate,ate!! I would eat till I couldn't eat anymore..I would scare myself sometimes!! That is one of the things I love about the band is the control that it FORCES you to have!!It's soo nice to not have food control me anymore...makes me feel free!! I had a psychic tell me that I ate to build a barrier of protection around me so no-one or nothing could hurt me...very interesting!!
  22. That's great to hear your doing well.And your Mom too that is so AWESOME that her treatment is working..see God does answer prayer huh?:) You keep up all your hard work!

    I'm doing well too.My last fill was pretty tight soo I dont think I want another for awhile as alot of food was getting stuck and that was way uncomfortable.I too am going to start trying to exercise much harder!!I heard there's a good exercise tape from that show the biggest loser I'm gonna try! I just got back from disneyland with my kids & hubby and I felt so proud to walk around all day everywhere and not get out of breath and to climb up the stairs in the tarzan treehouse and all!! it was so great!!I know that would have been a miserable struggle before for me!!

    Take care girl!! great talking with you...so happy all is well...Teal :)

  23. Thanks for the pic comments!! I know you gotta love those little buggers!! lol :)
