Yeah, that has been happening to me too. I keep on giving clothes away. I have been taking hand me downs from friends, like doing a clothing exchange type of thing. I have also been digging into the box of clothes that fit me years ago in a short time I lost weight and I thought would never fit me again! And they fit now and even getting loose!!!

Ginny, you will be in my prayers!!! I wouldn't be able to get another fill, since I get stuck so often and slime. I could barely eat today, since it is my TOM. I ate a little fish in the afternoon and got stuck and started sliming. I have 3 cc's in my 4 cc band and I can't have anymore unless I wanted to pb all the time. It isn't good to eat too low calories for too long since it makes your metabolism go down and be slow.

Thanks!!! I have gone from 190 to 150 and I love it!!! I am just starting to work out and adding weight training. Let me know if you have any questions! Audree

I used a supplement when I was first banded called QuickSlim30 to help me with the hunger. It ended up really facilitating my weight loss. Lots of people don't hit there "sweet spot" for 3-5 fills, which means the place of really good restriction. That means you have to deal with the hunger and still being able to over eat enough so that weight loss is really slow or none.

It is definitley safe and works!

How is everyone doing? I am doing good. I have been feeling pretty tight lately, I guess since I am around that time of the month! But I am feeling really good! Where is everyone? Audree

If you were able to eat, it sounds like the swelling has gone down. When were you banded?

Hi and welcome!!! What I did was take one of my older bras and took the underwire out. I also used a good sports bra!!

Hello! I just wanted to come by and say hello! I am also a Christian! I would love to have support from other believers. I know that the Lord is the one who has helped me lose this weight. People are always asking for our secrets, diet, exercise,etc. My 1st and most important secret weapon is God helping me to lose weight. 2nd, He has helped me lose weight by a supplement He led me to called QuickSlim30. I did so well on it that God led me to start selling it to. My pastors were the first ones to buy it from me and people from church and they are all having awesome results. God is so good!!! Audree

One thing that has helped me a lot is a supplement I take called QuickSLim30. I began taking it when I was first banded and lost 25 pounds right off the bat. A lot for a lower BMI. I stopped taking it and plateaued. I started taking it again and began losing again. I have lost 40 pounds now. It has helped curb my appetite and raise my metabolism. I have 3 cc's and ca'nt get another fill since I pb and slime a lot. But I wasn't losing. Between my band and the QuickSlim30 I am 5 pounds away from my goal!!! Audree

You need to contact your doctor right away. When you can't pass water it can get dangerous. You can dehydrate. Call your doctor right away.

I started as soon as they were healed which was maybe after 6 weeks. You can't stretch them out. The scar tissue needs to be broken down. You will feel it under the skin. Eventually it will be flat.

Thanks!!! I did have a tummy tuck also. I had my PS here in CA with a surgeon in San Bernardino. His name is Dr. Jesse Mithcell. His website is California Cosmetic Surgery with Dr. Jesse Mitchell - Cosmetic surgeon in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles & Orange County He did great and I knew other people who had surgery with him also. I do recommend him.

Man, today while having lunch with my grandmother, I got stuck and started to slime. I was about to pb and had to excuse myself and spit out the food left in my mouth and slime!!!:faint: I held it long enough to not pb, but it was extremely uncomfortable!!! I am so glad I didn't go for another fill!!!! Enterprise: One thing that I know helped with my scaring was massage. My husband or myself, massaging Cocoa Butter or something else with good quality ingredients, massaging out the scar. It could be very painful at times, but the scar tissue needs to be broken down. We were more careful on the port site, but massage is very important for the scars. TracyinKS: Good to see you too! I will take some pics this weekend and post some new ones!!! Thanks guys for being such a great support!!! Audree

I have been eating pretty good, around 1200-1400 calories a day. I am using my staionary bike a few times a week too! Audree

Thanks!!! Audree

I am 5 pounds away from my goal!!!!

I am 5 pounds away from my goal!!!!

Wow you look amazing!!!! CONGRATS!!!:clap2::clap2::clap2:

I don't want to get another fill because i get stuck and slime a lot. I am actually down to 150 now!!:clap2: I start my day with some hot tea and then usually have 2 scrabled eggs about 9 or 10. It is really hard to get them down. I eat a normal lunch and dinner. I just notice the QuickSlim30 curbs my appetite and helps with my sugar and carb cravings. I have a slow metabolism too, but that has picked up!!!

I found you!!!! I am finally back!!! I am down to 150, so down 40 pound!!!!:clap2::clap2::clap2: I had been on a plateu for 6 months. I didn't want another fill since I am at 3 ccs already and get stuck and slime a lot. I am 5 pounds away from my goal!!!! Audree

I am finally back!!! My internet was down for so long and I could only check from work!!!! I did have one and it cost me only $2000 but only because I had other procedures done and it was included in the package. The scarring was not very pretty for a long time. I actually took about 2 1/2 years for them to not be red anymore. But they are better than the major bat wings I had. Now I need to tone up some, but I am happy with my results. I will take some pics and post them as soon as i can! Audree

Hey guys!!! I finally have the internet back at home!!!!:clap2: It was so frustrating not to have it!! I am down to 150, only 5 pounds to go!!! The manufacture of the QuickSlim30 was so impressed with the results I told them I got, that they are letting me sell them now!!! Audree

No,it doesn't make me feel jittery at all. I am very sensitive I cant even drink coffee or my heart races. It has green tea in it but not enough to make me feel it. It gives me more of a natural energy type feeling. I am down to 150 now. Only 5 pounds to go to my goal.

I am closer to my goal!!!! 7 pounds away!!! Audree
