Can someone help me get to the areas to choose some of the pictures to display about being on my journey to the lapband, etc.

Not quite sure where you want to put your pictures but try quick links and select edit signature .

Hope helps

Hi lblack66

Being nervous is okay. I think we have all been there. Just keep reminding yourself why you are doing this and how great you will feel.

Keep us posted on how you are going and feel free to ask any questions we have all been there or are going through it. You are not alone

Take care

I had my first fill today and have found I am no longer morbidly obese just obese which is great. Lost almost 15 kilo and have been feeling great through the whole process .

How about others love to hear

I was banded on September 29 and am doing pretty well. I go in for my first fill on November 1. I am starting to have some hunger again but have been sticking to my diet and losing weight. I have been working out three days a week and am increasing to five this week. Hope everyone is doing well.

Hi Hestie

Great to hear you are doing well. I understand that sense of hunger as was starting to experience that just before I had my fill. I thought it was due to the fact that I was off the mushies and liquids and was starting to eat solids but my Doc told me that was a sign of needing a fill.

I want to get back to the gym but have been told to wait for a couple more weeks. I played squash the other week and it felt so god I could actually run a little faster to the ball and in my first game beat a friend for the first time ever. mind you second game he came back and thrashed me.

Keep us posted and let us know how the fill went

Take care

Jane

Hi! It was really great reading all of your posts! I am in the process of getting clearance to be banded. My husband is having his done on Monday! I am 45 and started gaining a lot of weight between the birth of my 2nd and 3rd child (17 months apart). I was 220 pounds 6 years ago and am now 250. I have never had a weight problem until this last pregancy (the most I weighed was 135) so I am looking forward to be able to enjoy my children and actually go on a bike ride with them!!! Your notes are very inspirational - my husband is very excited as he too gained the weight the same time I did - so we are in this together!
