I miss you guys!!

Hello to all my peeps,                                           Since I have started a full time nanny type postion, and my youngest starting school...I have been sooo out of the loop.....AGAIN!! I'm doing well with my working out, but my eating has been...not-s0-good. I have not been making the best chioces and a time or two I ate too much. What little restriction I had after surgery has up and left the building!! I called Friday and got my first fill moved up from Friday to Tuesday...I'm hoping for atleast some , even a hint of restriction! I have really missed and thought about all of you this past week.  Everyone ready for the beach trip???    ** Hugs**    ~Sarah~

Hang in there!  I have a friend that said she couldn't tell it was there until she got her first fill. Said she really was pleased after they second adjustment. She's lost 110 pounds! It wasn't as fast as our friend who did the RNY, but it's been in 13 months! So get filled and don't stress.  It will happen for you. Just take time to adjust and settle into it. Enjoy that beach weekend while some of us suffer the beginning of a liquid diet... Hugs.

Hey Sarah- glad to know that I will not be the only one at the party with fresh restriction. I have only had 1 fill, back on 4/23 with 1.5 cc and was VERY tight- couldn't eat in the mornings, wayyyy too many PB's, etc....but 3 months later, its time for fill number 2 and I go 7/23/07 for it....probably going to be a lil more conservative and go with .5 cc- the 1.5 cc at 1st fill was crazy tight! So Sarah and Sheila will be the 2 eating 3-5 bites max at the potluck! Guess we have to pick out the really tasty stuff for our 3-5 bites, ey? See ya in 2 weeks. Today was a great day on the beach. Hope for weather like this for the 28th! Sheila

Shawanna.....I  U....That is very encouraging news!!! Thank you!!! I'll let you know if I can feel a difference later in the week!! I would jump for joy to be -110 in 13 months!!

Sheila,                    It will be nice to have a "restricted friend".........I hope I can feel somethng after the 1st fill ...I don't feel a dern thing at the moment!! What are your ideas about what we  could possibly get down( to eat)??   ~Sarah~

Hi Sarah. It's good to hear from ya. Sorry about your non-restriction but soon you will be back in business. AND YES, I'm so excited about the trip. I can't wait!!! See everyone soon. Jennifer

Hey JENNIFER-------LOL,,,,,, You stole my ticker!!!!!LOL....  Saran hope you are feeling better after your fill-----I dont really know about lapband I had RNY so what exactly is a fill????? I wont make the beach trip but hopefully I will be able to get to one... So I can meet everyone who has been so supportive to me....Hope you have a good nite (((((((HUGS)))))) Carol.

Hey Carol,                          A fill is where they inject saline into your band...to tighten it around your stomach.  You will be with us in spirit at the beach!! Maybe you can meet with us at one of our support meetings!!  ** Hugs**      ~Sarah~

Hey Sarah, Sorry about your hunger!  Dr. Moran told me that by the time the first fill comes around you will be at a hunger level of 9-10.  Hang in there girl! Good to hear from you! Lori

Hi Jennifer.  I can't speak to the band question, but I wanted to say hi.  I'd noticed you weren't posting and wondered if you were okay.  Good luck with your fill. Take care. Ellen
