    ok...so this is prob not a ? i should ask on this thread.... but what is everyone doing to keep the weight loss steady...fitness wise.

    Im at 10cc right now. I go for my 4th fill tomorrow. I think im almost there but i can still definetly eat more than 4oz. I hope i dont get too tight. I experience tightness when i eat and smtimes i experience the tightness with water. But there are sometimes I feel like i can eat and eat and eat. I too would like someone to explain in detail what the 'sweet spot' is all about. am I there and just dont know it? I know that sounds dumb but.. really am I?

    i wanna be passionate about working out too! How did you start?where do i begin?

  13. bellaisgreat

    well I started out at 341lbs 56.7 BMI and am now at 323lbs and 53.7 BMI. Im hungry all the time. I was ok for about the first 5 days after my 2nd fill but now im hungry again. I go back 6/30 for my 3rd fill. Im already at 7.4 ccs in my 14 cc band. Im really trying not to focus on the cc thing. but i just want to see better results. Im sure they are just around the way but I dont wanna be hungry anymore. I wake up and my stomach is already begging for food. GRRRR I hate that feeling. i plan to ask you lots of questions so be ready :P Do you work out? How often? What do you do?

  14. bellaisgreat

    OK WOW!!! U look great! im almost 2 months out and only down 18lbs. I need to know your secrets :) I want success like you :)

    I go for my 3rd fill 6/30. im praying this does the trick.

  15. bellaisgreat

    Juarez MX info

    bellaisgreat replied to cheri634's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Try the Surgical Center of Ft Worth. Its off Pipeline in Hurst. I go there and everything is done with flouro. :biggrin: The nurses that do the fills there are great and have all been banded as well. They know what they are doing and are always willing to help. Im from Juarez and with all the violence going on over there... I wouldnt go in trying to look for a doctor to do a fill. Try the Surgical Center. Best of luck to ya!
