      You have the right idea..keep in mind it is going down..not up..

  3. Well I am still here, losing slowly, but still losing, trying to stay focused and positive and my 1 year anniversary approaches. It's a lot of work, but worth it.

  7. hi there, I finally responded, I'm very happy with my band, some people like the plication cause they don't have to deal with the fils, it is a pain, especially for the first few months. But I like that it can be removed. I guesss maybe plication can to?? I don't know. my surgery was 9/27/10 I started at 298 lbs and I've lost 48 lbs. Never lost weight ever. I eat healthy and I...

  9. Hi there, great pic, you must be losing! How are you? I got a fill in November. Might get another in January.

  10. HI all, survived the holidays- I even lost 5 lbs since Thanksgiving, which is remarkable given all the holiday goodies I've been surrounded by.

      That's awesome!! Think of how hard that was and how much weight you would have put on without the band. I too did not put on a single pound.

  11. Hi Ashley, I just wanted to tell you your new picture is amazing.

  12. ok here at occ, got my first fill. thanks dr. so

      Good luck and congrats

  14. recovering after the holiday, back on track now.

  15. Ok so for some reason I got an email yesterday that said you had said something to me, but I can't find what it is, the stuff I see is from a while back, not yesterday. So if you have sent me a comment or something please tell me how to find it. LOL

    Hope you are doing well, when is your fill?

  16. Checking in on you. I have trouble with this site, so if you have replied to me I haven't seen it. But I hope you are doing well, when do you get home? How do you feel

  17. I still have so many questions about once I have restriction. like people say they eat 1/2 cup of food 3 times a day, and they also say I get 1200 calories, now either they are eating chocolate covered peanut butter dipped in sugar or they aren't getting 1200 cals or they are eating moree then 1/2 cup. If it's healthy food its impossible. just my rant, sorry

  18. so that fill is coming, in my 2 days of food I've felt stuck mildly twice, got to slow down. no slim, just pressure. I puked even before I started solids, now I'm freaked out. Cant wait to here about the fill. I'm terrified of flying there and them saying oh we cant fill you, its my nightmare.

  19. day two solid food- feeling hungry, I was hoping I could go till after the holiday for a fill, but I think I'll book my flight for my nov 15 appt.

      Wish I could tell you the hunger slows down but it don't. I swear I've been starving everyday since I got back onto solids. I eat more than I should but I lost 5more lbs since I started eating so I haven't gained anything back thank god! I scheduled my 1st fill for the 24th of this month....I leave this Sunday actually. I'll tell you how it was when I get back!

      Ha I mean 25th not 24th!

      I have my first fill scheduled for Nov 6. They said at OCC that you should eat a third of what you used to eat. I don't see how that can be possible right now!

  20. 3 more days, then solids, nervous and excited all at once.

  21. How are you doing? getting close eh.

  22. happy Monday, lovely fall weather, 5 lbs down, and onto pureed food.

    1. Danana

      Danana

      I was told we were not allowed to have pureed food? Liquids straight to solids is what I was told.

      hmm that's odd, I was told no mushies but in the stupid info pack that D. Miranda gave the "full" liquids included soups, strained vegetable, meat or cream. Then on the diet forum I found different cream soup recipes, to me a cream soup is pureed. I probably got it wrong though, the info on diet is so crappy I think.

  24. I can imagine,i’m nervous about it, do you have your fill appt...

  25. Hi there, how are you doing? Just thought I'd check in.
