  1. Hey girly how have you been?

  2. Lookin good! How you been? By the way you were right, I have much more restriction now after mty 4th fill.

  3. I am so proud of you! You look great in the pics to the right you posted! Can't say it enough, you are an inspiration!

     

    How are you doing by the way?

  4. Hey girly,

     

    Haven't been on here for awhile. I am doing ok. A lot of ups and downs. Struggling to get back into exercising again. Losing slowly because of it. Finally had the 4th fill a month ago and it's finally working. Or at least I don't eat as much and can see the difference.

     

    How have you been? Lookin good in your pic. :)

  5. I can't believe how great you look! You are so beutiful inside and out! You exude an inner and outer beuty that I can't describe! Congrats girl! I am jelous! I hope to look as good as you at the end of this journey. :thumbup:
  6. Same here, I haven't lost much since I have not had much restriction since I've been banded. I have lost about 26 lbs and very slow weight loss. Hopefully my 4th fill in 2 weeks will do it.
  7. I can't quite give you a good opinon at this time. I kind of regret the lapband and wish I did the gastric. I have heard from a few gastric patients that they felt it was a miracle and didn't really have to work at getting the weight off. With the band you really have to work at it. You have to eat healthy and exercise or else you will barely lose any weight at all. With gastric the weight flies off. The negative of the gastric is a lot of people have issues with gas or other health issues and maintanance is harder on them than lapbanders. With the lapband I feel like I'm on a diet and I choose what to eat and not to eat. It's very difficult, for me at least it is. Hope this helps.

  8. Hey there! Does your doctor give you fills under an xray or just has you drink water and when you burp he knows when to stop giving you saline solution?

     

    I have had 3 fills and have no restriction, jst trying to figure some stuff out. Maybe it's too soon. I don't know. I'm always starving between meals. :(

  15. Wow! You look great! I didn't know you went to Dr. Paya! I almost went to him but my insurance changed at work so I went to his associates Dr. Lyas instead, but I get my fills in Dr. Payas office. Trip out.
