  3. heyyy! how are things going for you? it has been awhile since we last spoke.

  4. I've been good. Just working... A LOT! Thanks for the picture comment. I've been hitting the gym like twice a day. It has become routine for me now. However, I think I'm beginning to plateau with the weight loss, so I am going in for another fill next week.

    Chewing Gum

    Considering you're pre-op chewing sugar free gum should not be a problem. Post-op is a lot different. I think they want you to get out of the habit of chewing gum in pre-op, because possible complications after surgery if consumed.
  9. HAHA. I will this weekend. I'm having a Super Bowl party, so lots of pics will be taken. lol. How have you been? I got my 1st fill last Tuesday. I feel no change. I am eating less, but the time in between meals is annoying, because I get hungry. Did you go through that too?

  10. Hey, thanks! Glad to hear your port is all better now. My Christmas and New Years was great. How about yours? Today is a pretty exciting day for me, Obama is officially president, and I get my first fill. What a coincidence. lol Thanks for the comments btw.

  11. sooo that whole "full to it hurts" thing you were talking about..... yeh I now know what you mean. Definitely ALL bad. lol

  12. oh that sucks. well hopefully it wont be much longer. my insurance tried to pull some major moves this month trying to say they werent going to cover me for the month of December, post-dating it right BEFORE my surgery..... yeh, OOkay! they got a mouth full from me. lol in the end they fixed it, but watch out for them insurance companies. they're no joke.

  13. What do you mean by "without getting sick"? My first fill is next Tuesday. I seriously want to move it up because I feel like I can eat whatever, and its starting to get annoying. lol I barely lost any weight these last two weeks. AHH! So Tuesday better come quick. lol

  14. Yeh, I lost like 8lbs before surgery, but the rest was all post-op. The pain is not that bad, as long as you take your liquid medicine every 4 hours. You'll be fine. Just sit back, relax, and enjoy the days off work. lol Thats what I did. lol Good Luck on your surgery today! Let me know how it goes.

  15. hey I saw you're getting your band tomorrow on Mimi's page. I was scared and nervous too, almost walked out actually, but just think about the benefits. Thats what helped me. So, GOOD LUCK TOMORROW!

  16. hey, it's been going pretty good actually. I haven't received my fill yet, but the whole process and recovery has been great. I'm going to be honest, the only problem I had was major gas pains the day after. INSANE. But other than that, it feels as if I havent even had surgery. I've already lost 39lbs and its barely about to be a month. How much longer do you have until surgery? I'm Devo btw.

  17. hey Shonda! I'm Devo. and YES!!! Every time I eat, I'm hungry like an hour later. I havent been filled yet, so I think thats why. I cant wait until I get one, because I'm tired of feeling hungry all the time. lol How are you doing?

  18. Its going pretty good. I got banded on Dec. 10. The whole process went really well. My scars are practically gone and I get my first fill on the 18th. I can't wait for it! lol How much longer do you have?

  19. haha. Fair enough. hey, you get your second fill today! Let me know how it goes. I can't wait for my first one.

  20. Yup, Devo, like the band. and JANE, boring? YEH RIGHT! Like Jane-Doe, its the most common name in America. That name is SHWEET! lol

  21. o0o0o0oh okay. lol yeh I am tall. and so far I've lost 32lbs, but that was close to two weeks ago. So I'm sure I've lost a little more since then.

  22. noooooo talk! lol I got banded on Dec. 10th. I'm sure I probably could of lost the rest of the weight on my own, but a little assistance doesn't hurt. lol how are you?

  23. Thats good! Yes, I had my surgery on the 10th. To only be 3 weeks out, I'm feeling great. Have you had a fill yet?

  24. hey! I havent introduced myself, I'm Devo. I saw you on a few other ppls profiles, and you seemed like a pretty cool LBT buddy. lol So I added you. How is everything going?
