thanks kirsten and claudia I am feeling some what better

oh guys I have great news remember how I told yall about my doc not taking my insurance anymore and I was to pay out of pocket 450 dollars well I did my research and found a new doc that accepts my insurance about ten mins from my old docs office

I am thrilled one thing that scares me is he doesn't use fluroscope for fills

my old doc did and I loved that

His nurse says he rarely misses the port but I have some organs I would hope he did not hit when looking for my port he he

does yall docs use fluro

[Banannie 0]

I've never had flouro and only once had more than one needle stick per fill. I've had four fills and one slight unfill (initially the fill felt *great* but after a week and a half, I tightened up - coulda been stress from work, don't know). I'm going in for another fill on Monday... right now I feel like I could eat a small horse!

So don't worry about the flouro - many docs use it, many don't - mine has it if it's needed, but so far, it hasn't been!

bannannie that makes me feel better

oh yall I changed my ticker my goal is not 150 anymore I am 5'7 and that is too skinny my neice who is 17 weighs 155 and she is 5'7 way too skinny my new goal is 170

may adjust later

the last time I loved my body I weighed 190 almost 3 yrs ago

[beversman 0]

BK -- Im 5'8''... I have often wondered if my goal is a bit unrealistic...I think it might be a bit too low. I don't want to look sickly either. The charts at the Dr office say 140 is right in the middle of "healthy" BUT I dont know if I buy that or not.

Ladies... I ate like 1800 calories the other day... and low and behold the scale moved down. WHAT THE HECK!? Sometimes I dont think understand weightloss in the slightest.

Just when i think I have it figured out...

I guess maybe there are times when we just need to eat more.

Happy Easter my lovely ladies!! Hope your all having a good weekend :-)

[VABandster 0]

Happy Easter Ladies!!!

BMAN...that is a funny pic!! As for the calories/scale...sometime they're like a Man....you just have to mess w/them a little bit to get them going! LOL

Hope you all have a great day!

[bkwalling 0]

B Man I agree with the docs charts I believe they are a bit too low for me seeing my neice who runs track and plays sports and too think she is unhealthy it is hard for me to believe anywho since I go to my doc on April 30th I am going to ask him

I totally agree about the scale thing

loved the pic

I survived Easter harder to do than I thought. We had some yummy food choices but I ate very little and had only a couple bites of dessert :hungry: . My family did notice I have lost weight and also how little I eat. They all know I am banded so you know how that goes. My husband 's stepmom was like man I am happy I did not have one of those bands because if I did it would have popped off and hit me in the head by now because I eat too much. I said no you would be throwing up in the toliet. My sis in law who had gastric bypass in 12/05 was there she was bragging about how she can feel her butt bone finally and stuff she ate like a starved prisoner a whole plate of food and then went and threw up. She said to me u still throwing up I said no I think I am getting used to it finally she said oh u never get used to it .I wanted to say well don't eat a plate of food and u want throw up. My kids both found the golden and silver eggs and they were the smallest in the hunt. My oldest who is 5 said that is the only egg I am looking for thankfully he found others on his hunt :humble:

Ladies my scale is finally going down

:bump2: I am so thrilled I have been losing a couple lbs a wk. I am so happy

hope it does not stop anytime soon:Banane33:
