  1. Hey guys, I sure have missed you guys on here. I have not walked in 3 weeks, ever since Nashville got hit with the flood. The store I work at is owned by dear friends and we have been gutting their two stores on the square of Lebanon. What a mess!!! We are still going through ideas from the store and still finding stuff with water in it.....Shoooooooooooo Weeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! Wwamp Water is no fun! I did get out yesterday, walked 5 miles and man did that feel good! Time to get back to it and get focused! Thanks for letting me vent. You guys are doing a great job....keep up the good work. Hopefully I back to help out!
  2. don't anyone faint...it's me. I've lost 2 lbs in about 3 weeks. I am happy with that considering I have not been focused on my eating and walking since the flood here in Nashville. The store I work at was hit pretty bad and we've been gutting the whole thing. Time to get back at it.
  3. has hit the half way point...53lbs down

      wow, Congrats !!! Mine is a slow go... but as long as I am not gaining I am happy.

  4. WoW, we are so close to 100 miles and in just 15 days. That is awesome! Keep up the good work everyone! Add in my 3 miles from last night.
  5. Down 2lbs this week. Bye Bye Plateau! I am soooo loving my band!!!
  6. Thanks girl! Things are moving again, thank goodness. I appreciate the support and advise!
  7. added in my 2 miles today. I so did not want to get up this morning and walk, but I did.
  8. Thanks for the post. I have been wondering about that very thing. Don't even get me starting on insurance companies!!!
  9. As far as I'm concerned.....yes! I would probably say that just about everyone on here has tried everything under the sun to lose the weight and keep it off, with out any results. I am for sure one of them. This has been one of the best things I have ever done for myself. It is not a magic pill and you still have to work at it. The difference is that now I have a tool that will work with me. Do all the research you can and make the best decision you can for yourself. No one else can make it for you. Good Luck!
  10. Good stuff, thanks for the info. Protein before....got it! Still not sure about after?
  11. Hey gang, got in 4 miles before the rain set in. Janice, that sounds like a lot of fun. What a great day for the kids!
  12. I love, love, love your new profile pic. How cute is he!! Must take after his momma!!!

  13. Hey girl, glad to see you back on here. Sounds like you are doing great, even through all the fills/unfills. Your right, food just doesn't look the same. WoW, what a great place to be. A win in my book. I have only one fill with no restriction, but am still losing. I love knowing that the band has given me a new outlook on not only life but the one thing that seem to control me....food! Thanks for posting! Keep up the good work!
  14. Hey EcMjawad1, if you click on the ticker on the first post (the runner), it should take you to the ticker website. The page will say "edit ticker", enter the pin "occforum" and add in your miles and hit enter. Hope this helps! If not let me know. Thanks for joining in!
  15. OMG....I scared the snot out of my boys this morning. I stepped on the scale and screamed. I'm down 3lbs. after a 4 week plateau. Why I screamed.....I finally hit 50lbs...whoop, whoop! Happy Girl Dance! I so love my band.
  16. Welcome to the gang! Everyone is different. I have had 1 fill at OCC and Dr. So told me that I wouldn't need another fill until I started eating more than I could before. The weight is still coming off, a little slower now after 8 weeks. I am not in a hurry for another fill, would like to get as few as possible. Dr. So also told me that a plateau could last up to, 2 months and to be patient. Dr. Miranda, said to call if I had any questions and need suggestions to get it moving again. Sorry, I'm not sure this helps, but I hope so.
  17. OMG....I never even knew that "snot" would clog your band. Thanks for the heads up on that one, I think! Sudafed or Mucinex works for me. Hope you get to feeling better soon. That's the worst!!
  18. Thanks for the info., that's good to know. I don't use much but, Splendia and Truvia is what I have on hand. What do most of you use?
  19. Hey girl, how are you doing? Are you feeling better now?

  20. Only got in 2 miles today...had to get to work. Better than nothing!! WoW, I can't believe we are already at 42 miles. That is awesome!! Keep up the good work everyone...we are on our way. SHOOT OUT: Janice Black did a 1/2 marathon this weekend....YOU GO GIRL!!!
  21. Congrats....you are going to be amazed at the whole adventure. I'm with you on the early morning thing...yuck! There should never be two 6:30's in a day! Keep us posted and welcome to the "Band Land Gang"!
  22. Holding steady...driving me crazy!!!! Going on a 4 week plateau...arggghhheeee, hiss, hiss! I will have to say, even though the scale isn't moving, I can tell the inch's are. My pants are getting saggy in the butt. I'll take it!!!
