hi , i'm in the same boat with you..i have only lost a total of 15 to 16 lbs. since 12/28/09..I just had a another fill last week which now i'm at 7ccs..my nurse advised some people get to their sweet spots at diff cc's..so hopefully we both can get there and we can lose more wait..I just had foot surgery on today and can not walk..so I will be non mobile for a couple of weeks.good luck.

I only have 2 incisions that I can see. I really have 3 incisions per my doctor..they call this one incision surgery..they make one incision at your belly button..and uses the other 2 incisions to use intruments and carmeras to work from. they adv me these incisions are less painful and the healing process is quicker..enjoy..because I am..
