Well i got it worked out where i could come and was so excited about getting to come when i thought i couldn't and my car messed up, I almost cried. But i will be there in may the good lord willing and the creek don't rise
Sylvia I was like you about dieting and all and always lost but put it back on and have been banded for 9 months and have lost between 80 and 85 lbs. I was worried about gaining it back to but I realize now that I don't think I will 1 reason I can not eat near as much as i used to even when i was dieting and I feel so much better. I do not regret getting banded at all never have and feel like this is permanent because food does not mean now what it used to mean i live for life itself not just food anymore.
I do not have medicare but I used Schmitt and I guess the reason was he has done some of my friends. I am also 37 and was banded in July and it is wonderful i have lost 80lbs in a little over 8 months good luck and theres always room for more on here
Ok guys i do not want to scare anyone but just wanted to give ya'll some signs of band to tight week before last i had to have my fill taken out for a endoscope and in 6 weeks i had only lost 3 lbs went back this week and had lost 4 lbs with only 1/2 cc in so Lisa said that she wondered if i had to much in and did not put it all back in. I had not had any great signs a little acid reflux but I will always have that due to Barretts esophagus so I did not think anything about it anyway left office feeling good but in a while started burping and kinda felt like an air bubble thought I have not been like this since i had 5cc taken out so went back and took another cc out and I am fine. I just wanted to share that with you guys so if ya'll ever have those symptoms you know what it is .
I was there today and had to sign that sheet about symptoms of slip and stuff maybe the just decided to keep a closer eye on things. I also can not wait till Saturday I so need it I missed last month and can tell that i did see ya'll there
