I'm in Tempe and went though true results with Nirmul, too. I was banded 6/20 and am down 13 pounds since I started my pre op diet. I went to last months support group and loved it! I'd be happy to meet some of you at the next one!!

You and I are like clones! Haha! I live in San Tan Valley/Queen Creek. I was banded by Nirmul on 6/20 and am down 13.5 lbs!

I doubt I'll make it to a support group at True Results given the distance for me to drive but who knows!

Haha, too funny! My brother lives in Queen Creek so I'm out there every other week or so. I'm excited to see both of us progress!

MSAPP - I'm glad your doing better! When do you go for your first fill?

ASMITH - Hi and welcome to the banded world.

So I went for my first fill 6/20 and to my surprise i already had 2cc, that's probably why I was so darn sick after my surgery. I've lost 15 pounds so far, I guess not to bad but I'm not loosing anymore, the nurse practitioner gave me 1 and a half cc, so now I have a total of 3 1/2. I just learned that I have a small 10cc band. I've been eating a lot more so i think when I go back ill ask for a total of 5cc. The first fill wasn't so bad, thank god because I was worried, I was numbed and then a poked and Walla she was done. Not too bad! I do feel restriction, shortly after I eat, but I feel like I just started and wasn't enough and I put more in my mouth, grrrr I know! Not good! Like today my hubby meet up with me for lunch and brought Chipotle, I loooove Chipotle and it was the first time having some after surgery and I wanted to devour my food, got full fast and couldn't eat much, I wanted to cry just to see that bowl of great food go in the garbage. I guess, this is the part that I get my lazy butt up and exercise and have Portion Control. Please keep me updated on how you guys do, I love to hear all responses so let's all continue to keep each other motivated. We are the banded chicks!!! Lol have a great day.

Hello! I am at the 101 and 7th st and there is another member I met on here that lives right by me! Maybe we all could grab a coffee sometime? I am penciled for Sept 27 and she is for Aug 27th! Maybe we could pick your brain?
