    Hi, Congrats on being banded. You are still on the liquid diet.. right? I pushed it to feel full. If I felt hungry after yogurt I would drink more water. I felt a little restriction after my first fill and more on my second. Each person feels restriction. A few that have been banded have not received a fill and have lost weight. NOT pushing their band, eating the correct foods and amounts are the key. You will be told once you go to OCC that the band is a tool to help you not a magic band. Heidi please keep us posted and Congrats again !

    Hello and welcome I can only tell you want they told me but you will need to talk to the doctors first!! Everyone is different and recovers at a different rate. I was told no ab work for 6 to 8 weeks but that I could go back to walking as soon as I felt up to it. I do yoga and did not go back until 4 weeks after the surgery. I had a few problems with bending to the left and our instructor modified them for me. (she walks with us) I'd talk to the instructor and inform her what you have had done and she should give you modification to each. I walk/run/yoga and really want to start dong bike rides... I wish you the best and please keep me posted on your new adventure of being banded Janice

    Hello, First... Congrats on being banded Second... I was told not to eat popcorn but each person is different on what they can eat. I know that a few can eat bread without issues but I can not eat anything with bread or I will get stuck no matter how much I chew. I would first send a message to OCC to see what the think. Good Luck

    Hi Angie,

    How are you doing? I am still losing about a pound a week. I have been having issues with my left leg and seat bone. They think its from trying to jog. I hope not!!! I really need to step up the work out and have been walking for two years with little improvement. I just want to thank you for being on here and helping all of us!

    Congrats !!!! What an inspiration to all of us. I can't wait to be freezing all the time. Seems like I'm roasting day and night. (that might be my age too) I wished I knew how to sew to take up a few of my things so I don't have to buy things yet. I'm holding out until I lose more. Thank you and let us know how OCC goes! Congrats again

    I too do not see a problem with the signatures and love seeing them! It shows how proud everyone are of the progress. If it is causing issues with uploading a page then I understand. Maybe photos can be set to a max so everyone view our progress and not have problems opening the page.

    Yea !!! Congrats HAPPY DANCE !!! I crossed my legs the other day while sitting with our walking/running group and one of the girls slapped my leg down!!! I'm like what the heck!! She screamed at me... "You are not suppose to cross your legs" LOL Everyone looked at her!!! I crossed them again and said "hey I finally can do it!! I had the whole group clapping for me LOL (I'm seeing a Chiropractor for back/leg issues you are not suppose to cross your legs)

You do not have to have a garmin...you can use a iphone or upload by hand. It shows a map of what you did. I also use: http://www.livestrong.com to track my food intake. You do not have to pay to track your food intake/fitness. I LOVE IT Please let me know if you like it........ Also, if you sign up to plus3 add me as a friend!!!! Janice Black

    Since my fill in March I have not been able to eat any type of bread...no matter how much I chew, chew, chew. I end up getting sick and hanging over the sink wanting to die. So I STAY AWAY from it all together. I have a few other things like any type of lunch meats, boca burger patties, turkey burger patties. Still trying different foods slowly to make sure I don't have issues.

    Hi Chad,

    I was wondering if it would be possible to have you add a fitness area under forms? I use http://www.plus3network.com to log my work outs and a few of us would like to have a place on here to log our work outs. I also use http://www.livestrong.com to track my daily intake/fitness. Can either one of these be added to the form?
