Hi all! Wanted to share some before and 3 months after pics with everybody. Take a look. This band journey is a strange thing.:huh2: One day I can eat and the next day 2 bites will do me at one sitting. Throwing up has been more of a common thing than I thought it would be. Still a little bruised feeling at the port site :sad: and have had more gas in the last 3 months than EVER before. :ohmy: I go in next week for my 4th fill. And I am going to ask about these issues. Total wieght loss has been 30 pds! :tongue2: For once in my life the scale is going down not up!! :tt1: I'm lovin it! :thumbup: Can't wait till the next 30 pds goes away. Then I feel I will REALLY see it! And that's when others will really see the true effects of the band~! I had a lot of "bulk" on me and that's the 30 pds that's missing! :thumbup: If you have any suggestions or props, let me know. Always love to hear from you. :rolleyes2:

Hey! I have had the same experience with the LB. I was banded on the 5th of June, got my first fill on the 14th of July and going back in on the 21st of July for my second fill. I like you, just don't feel it. Occasionally I will get a PB or that air bubble in my chest like you talked about (and that is painful!) but nothing really too much to write home about. I can eat like before. Not as much tho. I have to watch out for bread. That can cause some trouble. I too hope that my sweet spot is found on Tuesday cause, I want to be at 160 by christmas!! :-)
Thanks for your post! Good luck to you!

Hey Sarah
Thanks for your feedback! It helps to know that I am not the only one going through the hills and valleys! I really appreciate the support and advice. You're right, I have noticed that I am tighter some days than others. Those are GOOD days! Whoo Hoo! I am going in to get another fill on Tuesday ( I called my doc and he said yes, go ahead and get another fill) I am hopeful that will give me an advantage. I was too test for borderline diabeties. I will keep an eye on that....Thanks again Sarah!!!
