I have been through the full body scanners twice. I didn't set off anything.

I have the Realize band. I've lost 94 pounds. I've been very happy with it.

Lab Band was a walk in the park compared to my C-Section. Soooooo much easier!!

Good luck with our surgery!! I'm from the Houston area. I live on the east side of Houston. Dr. Snyder with UT Physicians did my surgery. I had it done at Hermann Hospital (Katy location). I haven't had any problems. It is nice to "meet" you!

I have 7.2 cc in my 10 cc band. I really didn't start losing a lot until I started getting more restriction. It took about a week after the fill for me to really feel a difference. I think I am now at my sweet spot.

I had surgery on a Friday and was back at work the following Tuesday. Honestly, I probably could have gone back to work on Monday. I had no complications at all.

I'm going through the same thing with my husband. I've lost 80 pounds too. He was insecure to begin with and me losing weight isn't helping. He is so scared that I am going to leave him for someone else. I've started caring more about my appearance which leads him to believe I am improving my appearance for someone else. When I go shopping for clothes, I try to include him. I ask for his opinion on outfits. I get things that he likes. On a daily basis, I tell him how much I love him and how sexy I think he is. All you can do is keep reassuring him that you love him and that you aren't going anywhere.

Glad to know that I'm not alone. LOL Yeah, I wouldn't trade it for anything either. It is a good problem to have. :-) It also hurts when I'm in the tub.

I've lost 79 pounds and I have noticed it hurts to sit on any hard surface, like a floor or a toilet! I guess I'm so used to having a lost of cushion back there. Just curious if anyone else is seeing this. :-) Don't get me wrong, I'm glad I've lost the weight and I guess it is a good problem to have. It is just going to take some time to get used to it.

I lost my boobs and my butt first. I'm starting to lose in my stomach area now. Everything has gotten smaller, but the stomach was last to go.

I miss bread and pasta. I can't eat them anymore. If I eat one bite, I can't eat anything else. I seem to get stuck. Other than that, I can eat anything else, just in smaller portions.

I was told by my doctor that he would prefer that I want two years before having another child. Before you get too involved in the appointments and testing, find out what the requirements are for your insurance company. Make you you meet all of those requirements.

I was a size 22. Now, I'm a size 10. My bra size went from a 44dd to a 39d.
