    kiz how did they diagnose that you had a leak? My doc said that he put 4 cc's in last time and when i went back in for a fill he said that there were only 3cc's. I asked how? why? he said that possibly it could have evaporated or that it came out after he did the fill?? I have seen where they do a barium test and wondering if he should have done this on me.
  4. Hi Mary. I just read the message you left me from June. Sorry I am just responding. I guess its been a while since I logged on. You look great. I am not having as much success with my weight loss. I was banded by Dr. Nye. Congrats again.

  5. Just read your blog about getting thrush. I went to the dr. today and I have thrush too. I have never ever had it. I am finding that the internet is saying it can be common with WLS? Did your dr. explain why? I am just curious. How long did it take to go away once you started on meds?

  6. are you working out??? I workout like a mad woman every day... where do you live?? I just started a Bootcamp program that is Free at my church, I go to Olive Baptist church its just a bunch of girls that get togeather and workout for 45minutes on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday at 6am I know its early but I did it this morning and WOW I feel it and I feel great, I am not in anyway a morning Person But I would love for you to join if you would like! anyhow Ive been working double hard since I got my band, Not eating as much, Working out, drinking A TON of water like 124oz a day, All I drink is water Nothing else...its hard but its what I want so bad is to be healthy and smaller. I would love to meet someone else that has the band as well in this area and we can work togeather and work harder to get you losing too!!!!

  7. I was banded by Dr. Nye on 03/17/2009.
  8. Hi Mary. Im Rachel. I am in P'cola too. I was banded 03/17/09 by Dr. Nye. I am jealous of your WL, but happy for you. Mine has not been that great. It was at first- the pre-op diet and right after. I lost 30 lbs total but no fills yet and I am gaining back---I see Dr. Nye on Monday so hopefully he will fill my band then...Congrats on the weight loss. WTG!!

    Banded on the 17th

    How is everyone doing? I am doing okay. I went back to work yesterday. I did okay --just pretty sore by the time I get home. To me the pain is right around the port area. It feels like side splits like I used to get when running. Just wanted to see how everyone else banded on the 17th was doing. Hope you all are well....Take Care...Rachel

    I'm doing pretty good. I took last week off of work, and I return Monday. I still have port pain but I'm doing pretty good. How about you?
