Thank God I found Mississippi !!!!!
Hello Mississippi!!!!!!!!!!! I have been on OH since before my Lap Band surgery on Oct 7,2006. I have been all over this board and hate to admit that I am soooooo stupid that I just found this site,,,,,,,,now go figure that out!
I have had some ups and downs mostly ups and I love my band..........I have lost from 180 to 134,then gained 9 lbs back,clothes still fit the same but I am really working on those 9 lbs to get them off plus the 4 to weigh in @130. I had to go to AL to get a tiny bit out a couple of weeks ago because my band tightened up on its on, Doctor did a Fluro and said everything was fine, it just happens sometimes he said and he needed to take a tiny bit out, His words were,"trust me, please" so I did and I have. He believed I would lose the 9 that I had gained because I would be able to make better food choices. I have except for the bread stick from the Olive Garden that went down just to -to- to- easy! I go back the 15 of Sept and I pray that he puts it back in. I had my last fill exactly one year ago that very week so I needed to go anyway. I was having trouble and trowing up alot so I knew something was not right. I am really working my band and walking everyday.
I oust love seeing the food post on here,,,,,,,,,,,fried cornbread! There is no place like home, there is no place like home!

Come on in, and welcome home! I am a newbie. I've had the Realize band for about 2 and a half weeks. So I love this site to get information, ideas, and to complain. LOL! I hear that this message board isn't as active as it once was, but there are about 4 or 5 regular posters on here. And they are all wonderfully supportive.
Congrats on all that you have accomplished to this point. It's obvious you have been working hard so nine little ole pounds won't be able to beat you. Hang in there and keep us posted!

Hello Tammy, I love MS and was so glad to find this site. I went on the over Fifty site a few weeks ago also the Grads site for those that have had the Band for one year are more. I like those 2 a lot but they do not get much attention either. These are all the safe sites though and you don't get some of the "wild " ones. lol
I have seen the Realize commercial on TV but know nothing about it. I hope you enjoy it. I believe they all have their good points as well as their down points. I am just so glad that we have them.
Have a wonderful day, it looks beautiful outside. We are close enough to be sharing this same beautiful weather.

I've played around on the board "lurking" for about a year before I really started posting. Now I am addicted to my blog! Who knew? LOL! I am trying to document everything as it happens to help others who might be afraid or have question or have suggestions. This is not about me. This is about God's power working in a situation that I have repeatedly failed. So I know that all the praise and success is only due to Him and His love.
The weather in Hattiesburg has been nice, but my husband is a Biloxi Firefighter and he has been in meetings already about next week's storm. He works again on Sunday and they warned him that he will probably not be able to come home on Monday as scheduled. And that's ok. My daughter and I will be safe here in Hattiesburg. And he loves his job. I know he is in God's hands and everything will work out in the end.
I hope you find that you like it on this board. Wally's Dee (Denise) and Melissa will post off and on during the day as their time allows. And there is a guy in Jackson who just got a surgery date, so he is starting to post more frequently. And Fillisg(?) posts daily what her menu is going to be for that day, just to get a conversation started. I first used the boards only to just ask questions, but now write just about anything.
Have a great day!

Hello, I'm in Gautier, Ms down on the Gulf Coast. I love this forum, they are so helpful and I hope to be once I get going. I started at 305 down to 285 before surgery, waiting to be approved by my husbands insurance. I'm also Medicaid so they say I won't have anything to pay. I talked to my insurance nurse yesterday and she said I'm about 3 week out from surgery. About 1 week out from approval. Hope so, I can't wait to get started and find that thin person in me again like when I was younger, she is just waiting to get out . lol
