Jes you are funny. I went almost 8 weeks before I hit bandster hell and it's been hell since. I heard it takes about 2-4 fills to get to the sweet spot. Well I'm still in bandster hell, I've been craving foods that I didn't care much for before and even drinking soda....:tongue2: lol. Pam, you guys are cracking me up! Yes I think I may have stretched by pouch or my band went with yours and Jes. LOL Yes compliance is needed.

OMG Tina I had migraines during TOM as well, it is normal for me however i was light headed and couldn't understand why. I'm with you on the not being in diet thing right now, however lets get back on track. I thought after getting fill i'd be doing better NOT! Can't wait to start losing again.

Don't be Jes, just email her and she will respond asap. You should have a last appointment with the Anesthesiologist and Tom a few days or a week before surgery.
-
Yes Candra email him or call the office because you are supposed to take it before surgery.Tom prescribed mine as well. I'm so happy for you and Jes. John, Welcome!!

Hi Candra, your Cinderella is here lol. Girl waiting to put on that nightie(Slipper). I have been a tad bit busy.Not only that I am struggling to get back on track with the band and the new fill. You guys can chat away goodness!
-
Jes, She actually thought my weight loss total is impressive. The problem is I don't feel full. I am trying to be good.
-
Thanks Pam for asking the fill went well. I think you and I were in the same boat I had very little in my band and that explains the spurts of bandster hell. I saw Christine and she looked great. Thanks all of you for your support and concern. Jes and Candra can't wait to see you guys banded. the fill process is so easy and fast. I was impressed.

Hi Ladies, Got my first fill. The highlight of my day was meeting Chris there. Chris you look good, I see why Bri took care of business LOL. So I met with Robin first and told her about my periodic bagel and smear escapades. She agreed that a fill was definitely past due. She warned me about the bagels and gave me some good tips. She said she rather I don;t cheat at all Duuuhh!! Then I met with Dr. Park, clearly she saw that I had only lost 6lbs since I saw her 6 weeks ago. so she gave me 1.5cc. Apparently I only had 2.5 in my band originally.I;m not sure where she got the 6cc from originally. So I am on liquids for the next 2days and then back to 1/4cup. So that was my day. we'll see how it goes. She said I am scheduled to see her in the November but can contact her if I feel the need for adjustment.
-
This is so normal a reaction LOL. Chris CONGRATULATIONS!!! You have a gang of Ladies here to support you. You will do fine with your band, remember that was one of your reasons for chosing the band? Congrats to Bri, that stud LOL! :thumbdown:. Well we have a shower to plan in 8 months YAAAYYYY!!! You know I thrive on occassions as such.

Hi Donna, thanks for the vote of confidence and the support also Candra and Nicole. I just hope I haven't stretched my pouch aahhh:ohmy:! Candra stay away from those cakes, I'm sure you are ony taking tiny bites.
-
I just sabotaged my entire week of hard work. I ate soooo much today it is sickening:cursing:. It's a good thing I am due for a fill. I ate Bfst- 2 boiled eggs Pseudo breakfast1 bagels lots of smear S- 1 bagel with lots of smear L-1 bagel with lots of smear 1 cup of general Tsao chicken from walmart S- 1 raisin bagel with lots of honey almond smear Mind you, I haven't had dinner yet. I guess I have to go totally protein tomorrow to drop a couple of pounds before I meet Dr. Park on Thursday. Why do some of us do this???? I need all you psych majors and social workers, nevermind the fact that I am a social work with a psych background LOL.

Hi Chris, Thanks for the info. I will keep you posted. I bet she's probably going to give me .5 or less since I already have 6ccs.
-
Are you serious about the plice themeLOL. Well I can talk about that . My appointment is at 2:30 so I assume by 3:30 I should be done with Dr.Park.
-
Not necessarily food other things:smile2:. Most of all above I see as quite descriptive of you. You are warm hearted strong and reliable. I don't think you are boring AT ALL quite the contrary lol. One of my best friends is a Taurus.
-
Yes I am interested. Lets talk some more. I didn't see the post. I will bring you some champagne emulsion for you. I'll send you a recipe as well. There is secret LOL.
-
LOL, It's not supposed to taste nasty. Did you put real champagne in there? I use Champagne emulsion to make my champagne cake and a little bit of champagne. I'm sorry I wasn't there on Sat. I will be in Richmond this Thursday maybe we can meet for coffee on my way back? Let me know.
