ksp, I used to live in trenton but moved to Jefferson City a few months ago. I am going up to get a fill this wednesday, my last one was a couple months ago. Last time I went, Tina thought I was doing good so she didnt give me a fill. Lately I think I have gained back a few lbs and am hungry more so I think its time for another one. Do you go to the Thursday support groups? They meet the 2nd thursday each month and they are great meetings. Hope to see you at one soon!

Sorry I haven't check my email for a couple of weeks. I went to one support ground and really liked it. Intended to go in April and fogot about it. Intended to go tonight and had a family issue come up so I'm not doing so great getting there. I'm a little disappointed because I still don't have a surgery date set yet. Had to have a heart stress test done last week and have called doc's office last two days and no one has returned my call. I'm SO READY to do this but now I'm afraid it may not happen. I'm a little depressed.

Are you still doing well with your banding? For someone waiting to do it, what is your best and worst experience?

My banding isn't until 7/15 but will be at the support group meeting this Thursday!

I'm being banded July 22nd, by Dr. Pitt. I am going to try to make the support group meeting on Thursday. I went to the one in April before I was approved by my insurance and was amazed at the amount of people there. It was really awesome getting to meet some of the people there that were just a few weeks out of surgery and had such great success, very inspirational.

Good luck on the banding!

I hope to meet you there on Thursday. I love that you already have your ticker ready to go. I have to figure out how to do that since SURELY I'll lose a few pounds on this darned liquid diet:tongue2:

The ticker is pretty easy, just click on it create one that you like and then copy the bb code then go to your profile and add it to your signature.

I haven't gotten the liquid diet instructions yet. I go on Wednesday. I'm a little nervous, but I did medifast for a solid two months.

I can't make the meeting! I'm from rolla and its hard to get up there since my surgery is 4 days later! - hate hate hate the liquid diet

[bashful1269 5]

Hang in there you're almost to surgery date!... You CAN do it!! Just a few more days. I'm not going to be able to make the meeting either, just remembered I have to play softball at 7:15 an Columbia is a forty minute drive no way to make it. I will make next months for sure. Can't wait to meet you guys.

GOOD LUCK, God bless and please keep us posted on how you are doing.

[knrpick 0]

Hey Arb, I don't think you got my messages! I'm so new to this too and dont think i sent you my message the right way! I can't go Thursday unless I can deliver my dog the same day. I'm selling him, anyway, I would love to be your buddy! email me we and we can talk!

I also lost another 3 lbs from these stupid shakes! So I must be doing something good. Want to change my ticker, but don't know how. Anyone know???

Ok, need help with the stupid weight ticker. I've lost 5 lbs and want to change my ticker, but can't find my original ticker on the website. What do I do? I know, I'm lame!
