Hit a plateau.....I've lost 25lbs since my journey began in June, but waiting for a fill is rough. I have no restriction so all I want to do is eat....YIKES!

Hey Kelly how are you doing? Hope it's going well for you. I had surgery on the 29th of June and doing well. Now that I'm recovered there's no restriction so that's hard, but otherwise happy with everything. Drop me a line sometime.

Take care

Stephanie

that's wild about our bdays:) Glad you're doing well. I'm improving everyday. I'm down #19 also!!!! Hope you have a happy 4th. I'm staying away from all the parties and bbq's just too hard at this point:( next year I will have more reason to celebrate MY INDEPENDENCE from obesity!!! Take care

Just wanted to say hi. Hope you are feeling well. I'm still fighting with post-op air and can feel the dang port. Didnt expect that, otherwise doing well. Lost 3 lbs yesterday. Hadn't lost any since surgery, but had a lot of fluid to lose. Hope to talk to you soon.

Steph

Great to meet everyone down at OCC, it was a great experience. Now we can watch each other get skinny. Good luck to all that we left behind. Hope your surgeries went well

Steph

See you all on the banded side:)

You ready??? I know I am. Have you been able to lose your pre-op wt? I have, but having a hard time not eating lots before I leave since I know I'll be on all liquids for a while...UGH. Hope your doing ok. My cell is 503-936-8189 if you want to text or call me. It's all about the support:)))

Steph

Just wanted to wish you luck. I leave on Tues. If you want to text me or call my cell is 503-936-8189. It does cost more in Mexico, but I know I'll be using mine a lot:) I think a huge part of this working is support from others.....see you soon

Steph

Leaving in two days!! So excited!!! Hit my pre-op goal wt few days ago. Only down side is my back is REALLY missing my ibuprofen...UGH. It's going to be a long plane ride:)

Hi Kelly,

I'm in PDX also. Nice to know there's somebody else here that's been through it. I'm having surgery on 6/29 but havent decided on plication or band...UGH. When did you have yours? Thoughts?

steph

Hey Sandie,

I'm in Portland too. Having surgery on June 29th. still unsure if I want the band or plications. Thought I had made up my mind but reading posts on the forum are making me reconsider...YIKES. It's nice to know someone else in PDX has been through it:
