  1. Hey Genie. I am sorry it took me so long to answer. Email me at taystesco1@yahoo.com I am having a VERY hard time with this. I have had 3 fills.

  2. You are way too hard on yourself. YOu are stunning!

    I am going in for my second fill on the 10th of March and HOPING it does me some good.

  3. LMAO! well you are still beautiful.

  4. I hate you. It should not be legal to have those beautiful blue eyes AND amazing lashes!!! GORGEOUS!

  5. Hi there. Sorry it has taken me so long to check in with you. I have been disappointed with this fill. I got 4 cc's and I feel nothing. I have no restriction and can eat anything. I did set my second appointment for March 10th though so hopefully that one will be the "one". How have you been doing?

  6. My first fill has done nothing for me either. I am getting my second on the 10th of March.

  7. Well to be honest my first fill did nothing. I have zero restriction and can eat anything in any quantity. I have my second fill on March 10th. I am going to tell him to fill it up. lol

  8. got my first fill yesterday. Now on my 3 days of liquids.

  9. They gave me 4 cc's. I hope I get some restriction from it. I am on liquids for 3 days! Grrrrrrrrrr I feel fine but my weight loss has stalled.

  10. It is a lot harder this time. I have been constantly sucking on those Peppomint lifesavers. You have been really good! Good for you. I need to start moving my ass again. I can't wait to test this thing on Saturday.

  11. I can't tell if I have restriction or not yet but I did get 4 cc.'s so hopefully when I can start eating Saturday I will. Just doing the liquid diet yesterday caused me to lose 2.5 lbs. so now I only need to lose 1 more lb. to get back to 16 lbs. lost.

    How have you been doing?

  12. Just got back tonight. He put 4 cc's in the band. Awesome. I have to be on liquids for 3 DAYS! UGH! Anyhow, the needle part was easy. It is big but doesn't hurt. It is like getting a blood draw but not even that bad. I was in and out in about 10 minutes. The only thing that sucks is that they charge you $100 to pick you up and take you to the OCC and back. I think...

  13. You are still down 18 lbs. that is great. I bet you look awesome. Anyhow, I do like to work out but I like to eat even more. :( I will let you know how the fill goes. I am not too worried about the needle. Most people say it is painless.

  14. How have you been? I am in the lowly depths of bandster hell and can not wait until my first fill.

  15. I think we were messaging one another at the same time. Did you get my message?

  16. YEAH! You are an official bandster? How do you feel? Congrats and I am so happy to hear that you are doing well.

  17. Thank you so much ladies for the advice and encouragement. What is the 5 day pouch test?
  18. I think I am in it right now. I have no restriction so I am pretty hungry. I have gained 3 lbs. back from the 16 that I have lost. I gained them back right after I started eating solids. February 3rd (first fill) can not come fast enough. Anyone else want to share your BH experience? I would love some encouragement.
  19. Whoa that is a really interesting concept. Off to go check it out.
  20. That would be awesome if we went at the same time. Let me know when you set your appointment up.

  21. Just a few more days. Awesome! I grew up in LBC. Keep us updated onj your progress.

  22. Deb - do you eat the same breakfast, lunch and dinner?
  23. I just wanted to post and let you know that I support you and hope that you get some answers and relief soon. We are all here to help you in any way we can.
  24. Today was my first day of solids. I woke up this morning not as excited as I thought I would be. I was actually a little scared. I drank my coffee and was putting off eating until my stomach was growling like crazy so I made my usual breakfast of Fage nonfat plain yogurt with blueberries and chopped almonds. I used to eat about 1 cup of yogurt with about 1 cup of bluberries and 22 almonds. Today I made it with 1/2 cup yogurt, 1/4 peaches and 8 almonds. I ate it and felt no restriction (chewed slowly and thoroughly of course) and when I was finished I was totally satisfied. For lunch I made a small taco (white flour tortilla, leftover taco meat, lettuce, tomatoes, olives, small amount of cheese). I ate this and was waiting to see how the tortilla went down. It was fine. I was surprised because so many people have issues with tortillas. I was totally satisfied and full after that. Pre-banding I would have eaten twice the amount of yogurt (at least) and at least 2 tacos with maybe something sweet afterwards. Tonight for dinner I made a lasagna and garlic bread. I haven't eaten any yet but I will have a very small portion just to make sure I don't PB or have any other problems. How was your first day on solids???
  25. That is awesome! I can totally see that in my head too. How funny. Congrats to you on "not being big enough to steady the washer."
