Hello,

It is good to meet you. You really have done excellent! I started off at 362 so I can relate with you starting off so heavy. I am a little over 9 weeks out and down 43 lbs so pretty happy about the band so far. Would love to see you on here more, Teresa

Hey Dizzy,

Welcome back!! You have done exceptionally well--how are you feeling to be down so much weight? You're so young, and now you have your whole life ahead of you as a non-morbidly-obese person. What a blessing, to have this chance at such a young age.

We look forward to hearing more about your progress. Congratulations!! :)

Dizzy: Welcome Welcome!! WOW!! You have done GREAT!! I can't "weight" to get to 90 lbs weight loss. I am at 42 lbs lost right now in three months. SO I have a "weighs" to go. LOL!!

GOOD JOB!!

Hey Dizzy, Glad you dropped back in!

I have my surgery w/ Dr. Deol on the 19th (5 days!). Any words of wisdom on after-care w/ her? Fills, etc. I have a feeling the aftercare is terriffic 'cos it's sure been great post-op!

You are doing awesome! Congrats! Are you working w/ Patrizia for nutrition?

Welcome back!

Welcome back!

Debra,

Just be relaxes she is a great surgent and I had no pain when it was over. I was a little sore, but that was about it. As far as after care, if you just listen to her you will be just fine. The most important thing for me was getting up and walking after surgery because my family has a history of blood clots.

As far as fills, when i was getting hungry sooner I called Rebecca and she told me to try eating unfrosted shredded wheat after meals. Then she told me to watch my weight and if I had stopped losing she would call me in for an adjustment.

No, I am working with Sharon for nutrition. She has taught me so much. My family followed my diet as well and have lost weight. She is a God send
