so sick of this

Dang!  I waited around for nothing!  I did see Dr Loggins, Corinne, the other nut (Ashley?), and the surgeon's assistant come out......I figured you were probably gone once I saw all them!  I shoulda waited in the waiting room...oh well!!!!!   BTW....Ann wants us to get together and have "coffee" some Monday or whenever you are in town again.......Let us know what works for you if you wanna get together!

You weren't a big baby!  I bet that needle hurts!!!! SHHESSHH!!  I wouldn't want to have to keep getting one!   You are so much stronger than you give yourself credit for!    

OH< NO the needle is nothing, Mike pushes hard, with his fingers, so that hurt.  I didn't say a word about that.  but that isn't why I was a baby, it was cause I was frustrated with weight loss.  I am fine with the fills. 

YIKES !! 
What a day you had !?!? 
This is for you   ((((( BIG HUG )))))

I don't know Dr. Loggins...BUT...I can't imagine any doctor "giving up" on one of his patients...especially one that is trying as hard as you are !!
YOU...dear lady...are being way TOO hard on yourself !!
So, STOP IT !! 

We're all here for you  and don't you forget it !! 

YOU HAVE LOST 10% OF YOUR BODY WEIGHT!!!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
SO, SO PROUD OF YOU. 
yOU FINALLY ARE PUTTING ALL THE PIECES TOGETHER AND THIS ONE WILL BE THE ONE, i JUST FEEL IT.
LOVE, LOVE YOU!
KATE

Congratulations on your 10%!!!!  That is so wonderful.
Please don't be so hard on yourself about this.  I have no idea how the band works but I do know it will work once your "sweet spot" fill is found.  You must be so absolutely frustrated...Dr. L won't give up on you and neither will I!!!  I wish I could be there more for you.  If you are walking are you building muscle which weighs more than fat???  What did the Dr.'s scale say?  Was it the same as yours? 
Please keep your chin up...we support you and I know you will succeed!!!
If you are losing it don't pull it out but I know you are

Cheryl,

So now I know why I didn't have a fresh loaf of zuchinni bread on my porch when I got home...what a day you had sweetie.

I can't even begin to imagine how frustrating this must be for you. Does your doc really think this is normal? I don't really know that much about the lapband, because I didn't consider it for me due to the needles....I'm a wuss around needles. I have in the past read where there can be flaws in them occassionally causing problems with getting the fills right - is this anything he's considering for you?

Hang in there...I haven't lost that much either..I know how you feel though cause i had lapband almost a year ago and have only lost like 25lbs.but its better than gaining...don't get discouraged.....have a great night...
