Hey ya'll, I am 31, sigle, no kids, lookin for bandster friends around my age. It would be nice to go through this journey with someone that just plain old understands what I'm going through ya know? :w00t: I live in the San Fernano Valley in Southern Cali. Anyways, I was banded 02-24-09 and I have only lost 10 lbs so far and I'm a bit upset about it. Is this normal? I have not had a fill yet, so maybe that's why? :tt1:

Yeah your right. I just need to be more patient, work out more and eat more healthy and most of all to be patient! I have my next fill next monday. Hope it does the trick a little more. I want to get there already. There goes the no patience thing again.
Thanks for the support! It really helps. -
I lost 2 lbs this weekend. Me and my boyfriend did a lot of walking, we went to a convention center and there was soo much walking and it was soo hot this past weekend! I didn't eat so healthy but didn't eat as much since I was so hot! I hope the weight stays off! I guess working out really makes the hugest difference of all! :crying:

Thank, you, your soooo right! I have been taking it one day at a time and have calmed down since the last post. Thank you for sharing your experience. I made another appt. for next monday for another fill. I feel a slight difference in my eating, but not the way I thought. I still can eat a lot. I feel great to have all of this support from everyone and people telling me their experiences. It has helped ease my anxiety a lot.

Your right. Thank you for the support. I am trying to be patient and take it one day at a time. :crying:

Congrats! You have lost a lot! I'm having a hard time with working out and eating right and have no restriction so far. :crying:

Thank you. I think I will do that. -
Hey there,
I just got my first fill on monday and I'm a bit upset. I'm getting used to the whole chewing really good so that the food doesn't get stuck in my chest thing, but I still don't have restriction. At least I don't feel like I do. I think I should give it a chance but I am feeling like regretting getting the band instead of the gastric because of the maintanence after. When is a good time for the next fill? Should I give it a chance to set in a few weeks first?

Hey Amy, I only get the stomach aches when I eat too much. Yes, I can eat pretty normal again. Can't wait till the first fill either. I am feeling pretty good/normal. -
I was just wondering if there is anyone on this site that has been banded in the Los Angeles area or nearby? I was banded on 02-24-09 and wanted to meet some new people near by for support. :thumbup:

I have not found any protein drinks that I like other than Carnation Instant Brekfast which does not have much protein and has sugar (I can't find sugar free ones).
Do you like the Isopure or do you have to get used to it?
You have lost a lot of weight. I can't wait to lose more weight already. I need to be patient though. First fill on monday.

I'm an 80's music lover too! You look great already! I got banded 02-24-09. How much have you lost so far?
-
Wow you don't look 255, you look way thinner. You look really good already -
Very cute pic! Congrats on the weight loss
