pinkdots410 1 Posted August 4, 2008 Hello all! I am still in Bandster HELL - going at it on will power alone. I am not losing any weight to my knowledge...I am refuisng to get on the scale right now. I was getting too frustrated with not seeing it move! My clothes feel about the same - I willl let that be the judge for now. I go in on the 15th to get a second fill. I am fortunate that my fills are done through flouro and my surgeon keeps filling until I have restriction (I thought I did for the first fill, as I didn't know what restriction was). I want it to be uber tight. I'm talking "eat 1/2 cup of food and feel stuffed" tight! Let's keep this thread at the top, it's always fun to see how everyone is doing at the same stage! :biggrin: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZChick289 1 Posted August 4, 2008 Lexy you look marvelous.. Lets hope our next fill will do the trick.. I go for my third fill the 15th.. It is getting harder each day ..In my mind though I keep saying I don't want to hurt my band.. So I stick as best as I can to the routine.. I hate Bandster Hell ...

Yaherd 0 Posted September 25, 2008 hey may 19th bandsters.. what is up..? I went for a fill today.. only 1 1/2 cc, I cant do more than that or I start the PBing right off.. this is the second time they had to take some out. and they always have a hard time finding my port, takes stick after stick after stick.. both times... I just hope this little bit helps me feel full again.. I dont go back until Nov 20th so I have a long time between.. hope all are doing well!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bodybutter64 0 Posted December 30, 2008 (edited) Hello Everyone, All is going well now that I had the 1cc removed on 12/22 it was tough going there for a month between 11/24 and 12/24 I was thankful when I had the 1cc removed I can now eat and drink Water which was a struggle- I am loving the -56 pounds I have so much more energy- this was truly one of the best decisions I have ever made even when things were hard I would never go back to the way I was. Keep up the good fight my fellow may bansters. B~:party: Edited December 30, 2008 by bodybutter64 wording was wrong. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
