Hi Rose, nice to hear from you. My appt. is at 930 am so I guess we probably wont meet. I am having the same problem. I lost 16 initially and have gained back 8 and cant stop eating.I cant wait for the fill. its just seems too long to wait. well hope the first fill will do it so we can be on track. lets keep in touch.

Haizel - sadly enough, this morn. when I got on my scale, I have regained 4 pounds !!! OMG !!!!This damn restriction thing better work. I know I am an emotional eater and right now the doctors have given my sick mother about six weeks to live and I am going CRAZY !!!!!! Not to mention the $16 K we have spent !!!!! Anyway... when did you get banded and how much have you lost -( sorry, it is hard to remember peoples' band date) ?

I was banded Aug. 17. As of my preop Aug. 4th, I had lost 22 pounds... now? I dont know...when I stepped on the TLBC's scale, it was much lower than mine at home...good!!!!

Rose.................We have got to hang in there, for our lives !:hail:

Hi Rose, so sorry to hear about your mom. our moms are always dear to us and will be sad to loose. take one day at a time. I did my surgery on the 16th of Aug. and lost 16lbs within two weeks. I have been on a binge trip since and have gained back 8,probably more as I have not weighed myself for a while. I will weigh myself tomorrow morning before I leave for the clinic. yes their scale reads less than mine too. let us pray our fill works tomorrow. I agree this band is not cheap and so we need to see results and see it fast.I am actually getting embarrased knowing that my friends who know about my surgery are watching closely. IT BETTER WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Haizel - you're not alone in Ancaster, I am a fellow Ancaster bandster, and of course Peter too!! We've started walks and Tim Hortons with Elizabeth from Burlington on weekends. Maybe you would like to come too?

Hi Ginger, what a nice gester. I wont mind joining the team. what times do you guys go for the walk, where doyou meet and what days? i just got my first fill today. what an experience. i think I am ready to go on with this weight loss thing.

Rose, how did your fill go? After 3 pokes to find my port I had to get 1cc taken out as i could not swallow tiny sips of Water with 5cc. thought i could ignore the feeling and stay tight but not possible. I felt this horrible heart burn with a feeling of something down my throat. then started to spit out slimmy Water. not nice. well I am fine now with the 4cc so I hope that will hold me for a while. will start experimenting with the food thing tomorrow.

Hi Haizel - I PM'd you!

Haizel, got to TLBC at 12:45, probably you were way gone by then. There were only 4 of us being filled today. All of us did well , with the 5 cc. I was

VERY DELIGHTED as I stepped on their scale , (much lighter than mine) ! I had not gained at all ! How crazy is that! I am sure that is does not help that I am weighing myself each hour of the day LOLLOL! I have had a full Soup for dinner and am still ok. I am sorry you had the sliming, but you may lose quicker now... My port had flipped, but she found it first shot.... I will pray for us for a successful journey and May God give us the strength to face each day....
