I am officaly down a pants size. That makes me feel so good. Over 40 lbs down to actually go down 1 pant size. My top size has gone down close to 2. Regular XL fit but still a little snug. I feel so much better. I am so looking forward to going to Florida now in April. Have a great day everyone. Laurel

Where is everyone? I hope you are all doing well. I had my 2nd fill yesterday. So now I am on a liquid diet. The dr. was very happy with my progess. She even gave me a choice if I wanted a fill or not. Of course I took it as I have been eating more. I now have 5cc in my 8cc band. It feel so good to watch the scale go down. Have a great day everyone. Laurel

hi everyone im here laurel. well i went to get a fill today and dr said i didn't need one as i had lost 5 more lbs so that make me have lost 30lbs. and i shared with him that i thought that i should have lost more than that in 9 weeks. he said it was great and then told me if he gave me his chair to carry around all day i would kill him so be very happy as this is great news. so im happy about that. he changed my meal plan and wants me to eat a med Breakfast and a big lunch and a smaller lunch and a snack. so i agreed and he said come back in 8 wks but, should i need a fill before that to come back. so how is everyone else doing. im like you laurel where is everyone at.

China, your doctor's meal plan makes sense. I am glad he is happy with your progress. I lost 8 lbs in 4 weeks. I am up to a total of 41 lbs offically now. My doctor gave me the option of a fill. I explained that I excercise a lot and I also can eat a lot in one sitting. I have been on liquids since my fill so I am not sure if I have restriction or not. I will try to eat some soft foods probably tomorrow night. I go back on 3/27 to determine if I need another fill. I am leaving for Florida on 3/10. I want good restriction while I am away. We will be in a time share so I will have a kitchen to prepare foods. I will also be down there with 7 people total so going out to dinner every night will add up big time. I will be going to Las Vegas the last week in August. I want to fit comfortably in the plane as we will be taking the red-eye home. Let's all continue this good progress.

Do you guys ever have a hard time longing onto this website? Last night, I spent over an hour trying to get on the website but it wouldn't come up. I had no problems getting on any other website though. I will be spending a week in Vegas in August. It will be hot. But a nice break before I start a new school year. Hope everyone is doing great. Laurel

Hello everyone. Well its been a very hectic few days. Yesterday I was at the bank standing in line and all of sudden I started to get very hot and clamy I knew that I needed to sit down....well I ended up passing out for a second. The bank manager was great she asked if I needed them to call 911 I said no. I sat for a few minutes put some cold towels on my head and drank some Water. About 15 min later I called mu DH and he came and picked me up. I went directly to my doctor and he said that everything was fine. They think its just stress. Its been very stressful planning my daughters wedding, etc. I have been working out daily and today I am feeling fine.

I have gone down one dress size and am putting all my clothes that I canot wear anymore in a bag and plan on giving them to a co-worker. The pounds not be coming off but I can feel the inches.

Well I am planning on having a nice evening at home with my DH. Its the first weekend in months that he is off.

Janet I am very excited for you about your cruise. Sounds great.

Have a great day.

Thank you Laurel and China,

I am taking it easier and not doing as much I have been. Like my DH tells me ... slow down. I am learning to so NO to my kids. Between the 5 of them and taking care of my ill Mom they drain me. You would think that once they are adults they are more on there own. Well they arent they just need you in different ways. I love them dearly but I do get tired. Today we are going to visit my mother in law and just relax. I am scheduled for my third fill this Friday. Love You All and thank you for being my LB family.
